ctfmerge [-fgstv] -l label -L labelenv -o outfile -d uniqfile [-g] [-D uniqlabel] file ...

The ctfmerge utility merges several CTF data sections from several files into one output file, unifying common data.

The following options are available:

-f: Match global symbols to global CTF data.
-g: Don't delete the original debugging sections.
-s: Use the .dynsym ELF section instead of the .symtab ELF section.
-t: Make sure that all object files have a CTF section.
-v: Enable verbose mode.
-l label: Sets the label as label.
-L labelenv: Instructs ctfmerge to read the label from the environment variable labelenv.
-o outfile: Use outfile to store the merged CTF data.
-d uniqfile: Uniquify against uniqfile.
-d uniqlabel: Uniquify against label uniqlabel
-w withfile: Additive merge with withfile.
-c srcfile destfile: Copy CTF data from srcfile into destfile.

The ctfmerge utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

The ctfmerge utility first appeared in FreeBSD 7.0.

The CTF utilities came from OpenSolaris.
