Update the elf header of elf files.
elfedit [--input-mach=machine]
[--input-type=type] [--input-osabi=osbi] --output-mach=machine --output-type=type --output-osabi=osbi [-v|--version] [-h|--help] elffile...
elfedit updates the \s-1ELF\s0 header of \s-1ELF\s0 files which have the matching \s-1ELF\s0 machine and file types. The options control how and which fields in the \s-1ELF\s0 header should be updated.
elffile... are the \s-1ELF\s0 files to be updated. 32-bit and 64-bit \s-1ELF\s0 files are supported, as are archives containing \s-1ELF\s0 files.
The long and short forms of options, shown here as alternatives, are equivalent. At least one of the --output-mach, --output-type and --output-osabi options must be given.
Set the matching input \s-1ELF\s0 machine type to machine. If --input-mach isn't specified, it will match any \s-1ELF\s0 machine types. The supported \s-1ELF\s0 machine types are, L1OM and x86-64.
Change the \s-1ELF\s0 machine type in the \s-1ELF\s0 header to machine. The supported \s-1ELF\s0 machine types are the same as --input-mach.
Set the matching input \s-1ELF\s0 file type to type. If --input-type isn't specified, it will match any \s-1ELF\s0 file types. The supported \s-1ELF\s0 file types are, rel, exec and dyn.
Change the \s-1ELF\s0 file type in the \s-1ELF\s0 header to type. The supported \s-1ELF\s0 types are the same as --input-type.
Set the matching input \s-1ELF\s0 file \s-1OSABI\s0 to osbi. If --input-osabi isn't specified, it will match any \s-1ELF\s0 OSABIs. The supported \s-1ELF\s0 OSABIs are, none, \s-1HPUX\s0, NetBSD, Linux, Hurd, Solaris, \s-1AIX\s0, Irix, FreeBSD, \s-1TRU64\s0, Modesto, OpenBSD, OpenVMS, \s-1NSK\s0, \s-1AROS\s0 and FenixOS.
Change the \s-1ELF\s0 \s-1OSABI\s0 in the \s-1ELF\s0 header to type. The supported \s-1ELF\s0 \s-1OSABI\s0 are the same as --input-osabi.

Display the command line options understood by elfedit.
Read command-line options from file. The options read are inserted in place of the original @file option. If file does not exist, or cannot be read, then the option will be treated literally, and not removed. Options in file are separated by whitespace. A whitespace character may be included in an option by surrounding the entire option in either single or double quotes. Any character (including a backslash) may be included by prefixing the character to be included with a backslash. The file may itself contain additional @file options; any such options will be processed recursively.
