11 /* ============== original README ===================
12 *
13 * sstrip is a small utility that removes the contents at the end of an
14 * ELF file that are not part of the program's memory image.
15 *
16 * Most ELF executables are built with both a program header table and a
17 * section header table. However, only the former is required in order
18 * for the OS to load, link and execute a program. sstrip attempts to
19 * extract the ELF header, the program header table, and its contents,
20 * leaving everything else in the bit bucket. It can only remove parts of
21 * the file that occur at the end, after the parts to be saved. However,
22 * this almost always includes the section header table, and occasionally
23 * a few random sections that are not used when running a program.
24 *
25 * It should be noted that the GNU bfd library is (understandably)
26 * dependent on the section header table as an index to the file's
27 * contents. Thus, an executable file that has no section header table
28 * cannot be used with gdb, objdump, or any other program based upon the
29 * bfd library, at all. In fact, the program will not even recognize the
30 * file as a valid executable. (This limitation is noted in the source
31 * code comments for bfd, and is marked "FIXME", so this may change at
32 * some future date. However, I would imagine that it is a pretty
33 * low-priority item, as executables without a section header table are
34 * rare in the extreme.) This probably also explains why strip doesn't
35 * offer the option to do this.
36 *
37 * Shared library files may also have their section header table removed.
38 * Such a library will still function; however, it will no longer be
39 * possible for a compiler to link a new program against it.
40 *
41 * As an added bonus, sstrip also tries to removes trailing zero bytes
42 * from the end of the file. (This normally cannot be done with an
43 * executable that has a section header table.)
44 *
45 * sstrip is a very simplistic program. It depends upon the common
46 * practice of putting the parts of the file that contribute to the
47 * memory image at the front, and the remaining material at the end. This
48 * permits it to discard the latter material without affecting file
49 * offsets and memory addresses in what remains. Of course, the ELF
50 * standard permits files to be organized in almost any order, so if a
51 * pathological linker decided to put its section headers at the top,
52 * sstrip would be useless on such executables.
