elfedit updates the ELF header and program property of ELF files which have the matching ELF machine and
       file types.  The options control how and which fields in the ELF header and program property should be
       updated.

       elffile... are the ELF files to be updated.  32-bit and 64-bit ELF files are supported, as are archives
       containing ELF files.

       elfedit - update ELF header and program property of ELF files

       The long and short forms of options, shown here as alternatives, are equivalent. At least one of the
       --output-mach, --output-type, --output-osabi, --output-abiversion, --enable-x86-feature and
       --disable-x86-feature options must be given.

       --input-mach=machine
           Set  the  matching input ELF machine type to machine.  If --input-mach isn't specified, it will match
           any ELF machine types.

           The supported ELF machine types are, i386, IAMCU, L1OM, K1OM and x86-64.

       --output-mach=machine
           Change the ELF machine type in the ELF header to machine.  The supported ELF machine  types  are  the
           same as --input-mach.

       --input-type=type
           Set the matching input ELF file type to type.  If --input-type isn't specified, it will match any ELF
           file types.

           The supported ELF file types are, rel, exec and dyn.

       --output-type=type
           Change  the  ELF  file  type  in  the  ELF  header  to type.  The supported ELF types are the same as
           --input-type.

       --input-osabi=osabi
           Set the matching input ELF file OSABI to osabi.  If --input-osabi isn't specified, it will match  any
           ELF OSABIs.

           The  supported  ELF  OSABIs  are, none, HPUX, NetBSD, GNU, Linux (alias for GNU), Solaris, AIX, Irix,
           FreeBSD, TRU64, Modesto, OpenBSD, OpenVMS, NSK, AROS and FenixOS.

       --output-osabi=osabi
           Change the ELF OSABI in the  ELF  header  to  osabi.   The  supported  ELF  OSABI  are  the  same  as
           --input-osabi.

       --input-abiversion=version
           Set  the  matching  input  ELF  file  ABIVERSION  to version.  version must be between 0 and 255.  If
           --input-abiversion isn't specified, it will match any ELF ABIVERSIONs.

       --output-abiversion=version
           Change the ELF ABIVERSION in the ELF header to version.  version must be between 0 and 255.

       --enable-x86-feature=feature
           Set the feature bit in program property in exec or dyn ELF  files  with  machine  types  of  i386  or
           x86-64.  The supported features are, ibt, shstk, lam_u48 and lam_u57.

       --disable-x86-feature=feature
           Clear  the  feature  bit  in  program property in exec or dyn ELF files with machine types of i386 or
           x86-64.  The supported features are the same as --enable-x86-feature.

           Note: --enable-x86-feature and --disable-x86-feature are available only on hosts with mmap support.

       -v--version
           Display the version number of elfedit.

       -h--help
           Display the command-line options understood by elfedit.

       @file
           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.
