Does GNUPro linker have absolute function?
To be concrete,
Can it link some object files(*.o)?
Can it set the starting address like TEXT, DATA and BSS by command option?
Can it print symbol table by text?
Can it put away segment starting address and size in the head of object?
Thanks,
Ken

Yes, it takes a bunch of .o files and links them into an executable.

Not reliably. The way to do this is with linker scripts.
> Can it print symbol table by text?
Yes. There is a map option which will dump out the linker map
table. You can also use "nm" to dump the symbol table.

This information is standard in the ELF headers I believe.
