BRANDELF(1) FreeBSD General Commands Manual BRANDELF(1)

brandelf
mark an ELF binary for a specific ABI

brandelf [-lv] [-f ELF_ABI_number] [-t string] file ...

The brandelf utility marks an ELF binary to be run under a certain ABI for FreeBSD.

The options are as follows:

ELF_ABI_number
Forces branding with the supplied ELF ABI number. Incompatible with the -t option. These values are assigned by SCO/USL.
Writes the list of all known ELF types to the standard error.
Turns on verbose output.
string
Brands the given ELF binaries to be of the string ABI type. Currently supported ABIs are “FreeBSD”, “Linux”, and “SVR4”.
file
If -t string is given it will brand file to be of type string, otherwise it will simply display the branding of file.

Exit status is 0 on success, and 1 if the command fails if a file does not exist, is too short, fails to brand properly, or the brand requested is not one of the known types and the -f option is not set.

The following is an example of a typical usage of the brandelf command:
brandelf file
brandelf -t Linux file
