`symbols.txt`

This file contains all symbols for a module, one per line.

Example line:

__dt__13mDoExt_bckAnmFv = .text:0x800DD2EC; // type:function size:0x5C scope:global align:4

Format

Numbers can be written as decimal or hexadecimal. Hexadecimal numbers must be prefixed with 0x.

Comment lines starting with // or # are permitted, but are currently not preserved when updating the file.

symbol_name = section:address; // [attributes]

symbol_name - The name of the symbol. (For C++, this is the mangled name, e.g. __dt__13mDoExt_bckAnmFv)
section - The section the symbol is in.
address - The address of the symbol. For DOLs, this is the absolute address (e.g. 0x80001234). For RELs, this is the section-relative address (e.g. 0x1234).

All attributes are optional, and are separated by spaces.

type: The symbol type. function, object, or label.
size: The size of the symbol.
scope: The symbol's visibility. global (default), local or weak.
align: The symbol's alignment.
data: The data type used when writing disassembly. byte, 2byte, 4byte, 8byte, float, double, int, short, string, wstring, string_table, or wstring_table.
hidden Marked as "hidden" in the generated object. (Only used for extab)
force_active Marked as "exported" in the generated object, and added to FORCEACTIVE in the generated ldscript.lcf. Prevents the symbol from being deadstripped.
noreloc Prevents the contents of the symbol from being interpreted as addresses. Used for objects containing data that look like pointers, but aren't.
noexport When export_all is enabled, this excludes the symbol from being exported. Used for symbols that are affected by linker -code_merging.
stripped Indicates a symbol that was stripped by the linker. Used for symbols that affect the common BSS inflation bug, despite not existing in the final binary.
