RealView Linker and Utilities Guide

‑‑no_linkview

7.2.16. ‑‑no_linkview

Discards the section‑level view from the ELF image and retain only the segment‑level view (load time view). Discarding the link-view section level eliminates:

  • the section header table

  • the section header string table

  • the string table

  • the symbol table

  • all debug sections.

All that is left in the output is the program header table and the program segments. According to the ELF specification, these are all that a program loader can rely upon being present in an ELF file.
