It can change the dynamic loader ("ELF interpreter") +of executables and change the RPATH of executables and libraries. + +.SH OPTIONS + +The single option given operates on each FILE, editing in place. + +.IP "--page-size SIZE" +Uses the given page size instead of the default. + +.IP "--set-interpreter INTERPRETER" +Change the dynamic loader ("ELF interpreter") of executable given to +INTERPRETER. + +.IP --print-interpreter +Prints the ELF interpreter of the executable. + +.IP --print-soname +Prints DT_SONAME entry of .dynamic section. +Raises an error if DT_SONAME doesn't exist. + +.IP "--set-soname SONAME" +Sets DT_SONAME entry of a library to SONAME. + +.IP "--set-rpath RPATH" +Change the RPATH of the executable or library to RPATH. + +.IP --remove-rpath +Removes the DT_RPATH or DT_RUNPATH entry of the executable or library. + +.IP --shrink-rpath +Remove from the RPATH all directories that do not contain a +library referenced by DT_NEEDED fields of the executable or library. + +For instance, if an executable references one library libfoo.so, has +an RPATH "/lib:/usr/lib:/foo/lib", and libfoo.so can only be found +in /foo/lib, then the new RPATH will be "/foo/lib". + +.IP "--allowed-rpath-prefixes PREFIXES" +Combined with the "--shrink-rpath" option, this can be used for +further rpath tuning. For instance, if an executable has an RPATH +"/tmp/build-foo/.libs:/foo/lib", it is probably desirable to keep +the "/foo/lib" reference instead of the "/tmp" entry. + +.IP --print-rpath +Prints the RPATH for an executable or library. + +.IP --force-rpath +Forces the use of the obsolete DT_RPATH in the file instead of +DT_RUNPATH. By default DT_RPATH is converted to DT_RUNPATH. + +.IP "--add-needed LIBRARY" +Adds a declared dependency on a dynamic library (DT_NEEDED). +This option can be give multiple times. + +.IP "--replace-needed LIB_ORIG LIB_NEW" +Replaces a declared dependency on a dynamic library with another one (DT_NEEDED). +This option can be give multiple times. + +.IP "--remove-needed LIBRARY" +Removes a declared dependency on LIBRARY (DT_NEEDED entry). This +option can be given multiple times. + +.IP "--no-default-lib" +Marks the object that the search for dependencies of this object will ignore any +default library search paths. + +.IP "--output FILE" +Set the output file name. If not specified, the input will be modified in place. + +.IP --debug +Prints details of the changes made to the input file. + +.IP --version +Shows the version of patchelf. + +.SH AUTHOR +Eelco Dolstra <e.dolstra@tudelft.nl> + +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR elf (5), +.BR ld.so (8) + + |
