NAME

size - list section sizes and total size.

 

SYNOPSIS

size
[-A|-B|--format=compatibility] [--help] [-d|-o|-x|--radix=number] [--target=bfdname] [-V|--version] objfile...
 

DESCRIPTION

The GNU size utility lists the section sizes-and the total size-for each of the object files objfile in its argument list. By default, one line of output is generated for each object file or each module in an archive.

 

OPTIONS

-A
-B
--format compatibility
Using one of these options, you can choose whether the output from GNU size resembles output from System V size (using `-A', or `--format=sysv'), or Berkeley size (using `-B', or `--format=berkeley'). The default is the one-line format similar to Berkeley's.

--help
Show a summary of acceptable arguments and options.

-d
-o
-x
--radix number
Using one of these options, you can control whether the size of each section is given in decimal (`-d', or `--radix 10'); octal (`-o', or `--radix 8'); or hexadecimal (`-x', or `--radix 16'). In `--radix number', only the three values (8, 10, 16) are supported. The total size is always given in two radices; decimal and hexadecimal for `-d' or `-x' output, or octal and hexadecimal if you're using `-o'.

--target bfdname
You can specify a particular object-code format for objfile as bfdname. This may not be necessary; size can automatically recognize many formats. See objdump(1) for information on listing available formats.

-V
--version
Display version number information on size itself.
