+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
+GNU \fBnm\fR lists the symbols from object files \fIobjfile\fR....
+If no object files are listed as arguments, \fBnm\fR assumes the file
+\&\fIa.out\fR.
+.PP
+For each symbol, \fBnm\fR shows:
+.IP \(bu 4
+The symbol value, in the radix selected by options (see below), or
+hexadecimal by default.
+.IP \(bu 4
+The symbol type. At least the following types are used; others are, as
+well, depending on the object file format. If lowercase, the symbol is
+usually local; if uppercase, the symbol is global (external). There
+are however a few lowercase symbols that are shown for special global
+symbols (\f(CW\*(C`u\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`v\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`w\*(C'\fR).

+The symbol is common. Common symbols are uninitialized data. When

+For ELF format files this indicates that the symbol is an indirect
+function. This is a GNU extension to the standard set of ELF symbol
+types. It indicates a symbol which if referenced by a relocation does
+not evaluate to its address, but instead must be invoked at runtime.
+The runtime execution will then return the value to be used in the
+relocation.

+Note \- the actual symbols display for GNU indirect symbols is
+controlled by the \fB\-\-ifunc\-chars\fR command line option. If this

+.IP \fB\-\-print\-file\-name\fR 4
+.IX Item "--print-file-name"
+.PD
+Precede each symbol by the name of the input file (or archive member)
+in which it was found, rather than identifying the input file once only,
+before all of its symbols.
+.IP \fB\-a\fR 4
+.IX Item "-a"
+.PD 0
+.IP \fB\-\-debug\-syms\fR 4
+.IX Item "--debug-syms"

+Display all symbols, even debugger-only symbols; normally these are not
+listed.
+.IP \fB\-B\fR 4

+.PD 0
+.IP \fB\-\-demangle[=\fR\fIstyle\fR\fB]\fR 4
+.IX Item "--demangle[=style]"
+.PD
+Decode (\fIdemangle\fR) low-level symbol names into user-level names.
+Besides removing any initial underscore prepended by the system, this
+makes C++ function names readable. Different compilers have different
+mangling styles. The optional demangling style argument can be used to
+choose an appropriate demangling style for your compiler.
+.IP \fB\-\-no\-demangle\fR 4
+.IX Item "--no-demangle"
+Do not demangle low-level symbol names. This is the default.
+.IP \fB\-\-recurse\-limit\fR 4

+.IP \fB\-\-recursion\-limit\fR 4
+.IX Item "--recursion-limit"
+.IP \fB\-\-no\-recursion\-limit\fR 4
+.IX Item "--no-recursion-limit"
+.PD
+Enables or disables a limit on the amount of recursion performed
+whilst demangling strings. Since the name mangling formats allow for
+an infinite level of recursion it is possible to create strings whose
+decoding will exhaust the amount of stack space available on the host
+machine, triggering a memory fault. The limit tries to prevent this
+from happening by restricting recursion to 2048 levels of nesting.
+.Sp
+The default is for this limit to be enabled, but disabling it may be
+necessary in order to demangle truly complicated names. Note however
+that if the recursion limit is disabled then stack exhaustion is
+possible and any bug reports about such an event will be rejected.
+.IP \fB\-D\fR 4
+.IX Item "-D"
+.PD 0
+.IP \fB\-\-dynamic\fR 4
+.IX Item "--dynamic"
+.PD
+Display the dynamic symbols rather than the normal symbols. This is
+only meaningful for dynamic objects, such as certain types of shared
+libraries.

+.IX Item "-f format"
+.PD 0
+.IP \fB\-\-format=\fR\fIformat\fR 4

+\&\f(CW\*(C`sysv\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`posix\*(C'\fR or \f(CW\*(C`just\-symbols\*(C'\fR. The default is \f(CW\*(C`bsd\*(C'\fR.
+Only the first character of \fIformat\fR is significant; it can be
+either upper or lower case.

+.IP \fB\-\-ifunc\-chars=\fR\fICHARS\fR 4
+.IX Item "--ifunc-chars=CHARS"
+When display GNU indirect function symbols \fBnm\fR will default
+to using the \f(CW\*(C`i\*(C'\fR character for both local indirect functions and
+global indirect functions. The \fB\-\-ifunc\-chars\fR option allows
+the user to specify a string containing one or two characters. The
+first character will be used for global indirect function symbols and
+the second character, if present, will be used for local indirect
+function symbols.
+.IP \fBj\fR 4
+.IX Item "j"
+The same as \fB\-\-format=just\-symbols\fR.
+.IP \fB\-l\fR 4
+.IX Item "-l"
+.PD 0
+.IP \fB\-\-line\-numbers\fR 4
+.IX Item "--line-numbers"
+.PD
+For each symbol, use debugging information to try to find a filename and
+line number. For a defined symbol, look for the line number of the
+address of the symbol. For an undefined symbol, look for the line
+number of a relocation entry which refers to the symbol. If line number
+information can be found, print it after the other symbol information.
+.IP \fB\-\-inlines\fR 4
+.IX Item "--inlines"
+When option \fB\-l\fR is active, if the address belongs to a
+function that was inlined, then this option causes the source
+information for all enclosing scopes back to the first non-inlined
+function to be printed as well. For example, if \f(CW\*(C`main\*(C'\fR inlines
+\&\f(CW\*(C`callee1\*(C'\fR which inlines \f(CW\*(C`callee2\*(C'\fR, and address is from
+\&\f(CW\*(C`callee2\*(C'\fR, the source information for \f(CW\*(C`callee1\*(C'\fR and \f(CW\*(C`main\*(C'\fR
+will also be printed.

+.IX Item "-X"
+This option is ignored for compatibility with the AIX version of

+\&\fB32_64\fR. The default mode of AIX \fBnm\fR corresponds
+to \fB\-X 32\fR, which is not supported by GNU \fBnm\fR.
+.IP "\fB\-\-plugin\fR \fIname\fR" 4
+.IX Item "--plugin name"
+Load the plugin called \fIname\fR to add support for extra target
+types. This option is only available if the toolchain has been built
+with plugin support enabled.
+.Sp
+If \fB\-\-plugin\fR is not provided, but plugin support has been
+enabled then \fBnm\fR iterates over the files in
+\&\fI${libdir}/bfd\-plugins\fR in alphabetic order and the first
+plugin that claims the object in question is used.
+.Sp
+Please note that this plugin search directory is \fInot\fR the one
+used by \fBld\fR's \fB\-plugin\fR option. In order to make
+\&\fBnm\fR use the linker plugin it must be copied into the
+\&\fI${libdir}/bfd\-plugins\fR directory. For GCC based compilations
+the linker plugin is called \fIliblto_plugin.so.0.0.0\fR. For Clang
+based compilations it is called \fILLVMgold.so\fR. The GCC plugin
+is always backwards compatible with earlier versions, so it is
+sufficient to just copy the newest one.
+.IP \fB\-\-size\-sort\fR 4
+.IX Item "--size-sort"
+Sort symbols by size. For ELF objects symbol sizes are read from the
+ELF, for other object types the symbol sizes are computed as the
+difference between the value of the symbol and the value of the symbol
+with the next higher value. If the \f(CW\*(C`bsd\*(C'\fR output format is used
+the size of the symbol is printed, rather than the value, and
+\&\fB\-S\fR must be used in order both size and value to be printed.
+.Sp
+Note \- this option does not work if \fB\-\-undefined\-only\fR has been
+enabled as undefined symbols have no size.
+.IP \fB\-\-special\-syms\fR 4
+.IX Item "--special-syms"
+Display symbols which have a target-specific special meaning. These
+symbols are usually used by the target for some special processing and
+are not normally helpful when included in the normal symbol lists.
+For example for ARM targets this option would skip the mapping symbols
+used to mark transitions between ARM code, THUMB code and data.
+.IP \fB\-\-synthetic\fR 4
+.IX Item "--synthetic"
+Include synthetic symbols in the output. These are special symbols
+created by the linker for various purposes. They are not shown by
+default since they are not part of the binary's original source code.
+.IP \fB\-\-unicode=\fR\fI[default|invalid|locale|escape|hex|highlight]\fR 4
+.IX Item "--unicode=[default|invalid|locale|escape|hex|highlight]"
+Controls the display of UTF\-8 encoded multibyte characters in strings.
+The default (\fB\-\-unicode=default\fR) is to give them no special
+treatment. The \fB\-\-unicode=locale\fR option displays the sequence
+in the current locale, which may or may not support them. The options
+\&\fB\-\-unicode=hex\fR and \fB\-\-unicode=invalid\fR display them as
+hex byte sequences enclosed by either angle brackets or curly braces.
+.Sp
+The \fB\-\-unicode=escape\fR option displays them as escape sequences
+(\fI\euxxxx\fR) and the \fB\-\-unicode=highlight\fR option displays
+them as escape sequences highlighted in red (if supported by the
+output device). The colouring is intended to draw attention to the
+presence of unicode sequences where they might not be expected.
+.IP \fB\-W\fR 4
+.IX Item "-W"

+.IX Item "@file"
+Read command-line options from \fIfile\fR. The options read are
+inserted in place of the original @\fIfile\fR option. If \fIfile\fR
+does not exist, or cannot be read, then the option will be treated
+literally, and not removed.
+.Sp
+Options in \fIfile\fR are separated by whitespace. A whitespace
+character may be included in an option by surrounding the entire
+option in either single or double quotes. Any character (including a
+backslash) may be included by prefixing the character to be included
+with a backslash. The \fIfile\fR may itself contain additional
+@\fIfile\fR options; any such options will be processed recursively.
