|
|
.Nd run-time link-editor configuration file
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
file specifies additional default directories (beyond the standard set,
|
|
normally
|
|
.Dq /usr/lib
|
|
).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On
|
|
.Xr a.out 5
|
|
systems, this file is scanned by
|
|
.Xr ldconfig 8
|
|
to create the hints files used by the run-time linker
|
|
.Pa /usr/libexec/ld.so
|
|
to locate shared libraries.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On
|
|
.Xr elf 5
|
|
systems, this file is scanned directly by the run-time linker
|
|
.Pa /usr/libexec/ld.elf_so .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Lines beginning with
|
|
.Dq #
|
|
are treated as comments and ignored. Any other non-blank lines beginning
|
|
with '/' are stripped of leading whitespace and trailing comments
|
|
(introduced with
|
|
.Dq # )
|
|
together with any preceding whitespace, then treated as directories to be
|
|
scanned for shared libraries to add to the hints.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
On
|
|
.Xr elf 5
|
|
lines that do not begin with a '/' are parsed as hardware dependent per
|
|
library directives:
|
|
.sp
|
|
.nf
|
|
\*[Lt]library_name\*[Gt] \*[Lt]sysctl_variable\*[Gt] \*[Lt]variable_value\*[Gt][,...]:\*[Lt]library_name\*[Gt][,...] ...
|
|
.fi
|
|
.sp
|
|
If there is no match, the standard action is taken.
|
|
.Sh FILES
|
|
.Pa /etc/ld.so.conf
|
|
.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
.sp
|
|
.nf
|
|
libm.so.0 machdep.fpu_present 1:libm387.so.0,libm.so.0
|
|
.fi
|
|
.sp
|
|
The above line loads both libm387 and libm when the
|
|
.Xr sysctl 3
|
|
variable fpu_present has the value 1.
