DESCRIPTION
     eu-elfclassify identifies the primary purpose of a particular kind of
      ELF file or files

OPTIONS
     The long and short forms of options, shown here as alternatives, are equiv-
     alent.  All  of the classification options must apply at the same time to a
     particular file.  Classification options can  be  negated	using  a  --not-
     prefix.

   Classification Options
     --core
	 File is an ELF core dump file.

     --debug-only
	 File  is  a  debug  only  ELF file (separate .debug, .dwo or dwz multi-
	 file).

     --elf
	 File looks like an ELF object or archive/static library (default).

     --elf-archive
	 File is an ELF archive or static library.

     --elf-file
	 File is an regular ELF object (not an archive/static library).

     --executable
	 File is (primarily) an ELF program executable (not primarily a DS.O)

     --library
	 File is an ELF shared object (DSO) (might also be an executable).

     --linux-kernel-module
	 File is a linux kernel module.

     --loadable
	 File is a loadable ELF object (program or shared object).

     --program
	 File is an ELF program executable (might also be a DSO).

     --shared
	 File is (primarily) an ELF shared object (DSO) (not primarily	an  exe-
	 cutable).

     --unstripped
	 File  is  an ELF file with symbol table or .debug_* sections and can be
	 stripped further.

   Input flags
     -f
     --file
	 Only classify regular (not symlink nor special device) files.

     --no-stdin
	 Do not read files from standard input (default).

     --stdin
	 Also read file names to process from standard input, separated by  new-
	 lines.

     --stdin0
	 Also read file names to process from standard input, separated by ASCII
	 NUL bytes.

     -z
     --compressed
	 Try to open compressed files or embedded (kernel) ELF images.

   Output flags
     --matching
	 If printing file names, print matching files (default).

     --no-print
	 Do not output file names.

     --not-matching
	 If printing file names, print files that do not match.

     --print
	 Output names of files, separated by newline.

     --print0
	 Output names of files, separated by ASCII NUL.

    Additional flags
     -q

     --quiet
	 Suppress some error output (counterpart to --verbose).

     -v

     --verbose
	 Output additional information (can be specified multiple times).

     -?

     --help
	 Give this help list.

     --usage
	 Give a short usage message.

     -V

     --version
	 Print program version.
