Subject: [9fans] nm "L symbols"
Date: Wed, 4 May 2011 11:40:04 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <ip4ppn$5um$1@panix3.panix.com> (raw)
man nm shows a symbol type of L that is possible denoting it as
a "leaf function text segment symbol". Often a leaf function
is distinguished by being at the end of a call hierarchy and
can sometimes yield difference in code generation regarding
stack space and such. Is this the case here? If so,
then a L is otherwise a T (and an l a t), or is there some
other differences?
