+Link, typically invoked as ``go tool link,'' reads the Go archive or object
+for a package main, along with its dependencies, and combines them
+into an executable binary.
+
+Command Line
+
+Usage:
+
+ go tool link [flags] main.a
+
+Flags:
+
+ -B note
+ Add an ELF_NT_GNU_BUILD_ID note when using ELF.
+ The value should start with 0x and be an even number of hex digits.
+ -D address
+ Set data segment address.
+ -E entry
+ Set entry symbol name.
+ -H type
+ Set executable format type.
+ The default format is inferred from GOOS and GOARCH.
+ On Windows, -H windowsgui writes a "GUI binary" instead of a "console binary."
+ -I interpreter
+ Set the ELF dynamic linker to use.
+ -L dir1 -L dir2
+ Search for imported packages in dir1, dir2, etc,
+ after consulting $GOROOT/pkg/$GOOS_$GOARCH.
+ -R quantum
+ Set address rounding quantum.
+ -T address
+ Set text segment address.
+ -V
+ Print linker version and exit.
+ -X importpath.name=value
+ Set the value of the string variable in importpath named name to value.
+ This is only effective if the variable is declared in the source code either uninitialized
+ or initialized to a constant string expression. -X will not work if the initializer makes
+ a function call or refers to other variables.
+ Note that before Go 1.5 this option took two separate arguments.
+ -a
+ Disassemble output.
+ -buildid id
+ Record id as Go toolchain build id.
+ -buildmode mode
+ Set build mode (default exe).
+ -c
+ Dump call graphs.
+ -compressdwarf
+ Compress DWARF if possible (default true).
+ -cpuprofile file
+ Write CPU profile to file.
+ -d
+ Disable generation of dynamic executables.
+ The emitted code is the same in either case; the option
+ controls only whether a dynamic header is included.
+ The dynamic header is on by default, even without any
+ references to dynamic libraries, because many common
+ system tools now assume the presence of the header.
+ -debugtramp int
+ Debug trampolines.
+ -dumpdep
+ Dump symbol dependency graph.
+ -extar ar
+ Set the external archive program (default "ar").
+ Used only for -buildmode=c-archive.
+ -extld linker
+ Set the external linker (default "clang" or "gcc").
+ -extldflags flags
+ Set space-separated flags to pass to the external linker.
+ -f
+ Ignore version mismatch in the linked archives.
+ -g
+ Disable Go package data checks.
+ -importcfg file
+ Read import configuration from file.
+ In the file, set packagefile, packageshlib to specify import resolution.
+ -installsuffix suffix
+ Look for packages in $GOROOT/pkg/$GOOS_$GOARCH_suffix
+ instead of $GOROOT/pkg/$GOOS_$GOARCH.
+ -k symbol
+ Set field tracking symbol. Use this flag when GOEXPERIMENT=fieldtrack is set.
+ -libgcc file
+ Set name of compiler support library.
+ This is only used in internal link mode.
+ If not set, default value comes from running the compiler,
+ which may be set by the -extld option.
+ Set to "none" to use no support library.
+ -linkmode mode
+ Set link mode (internal, external, auto).
+ This sets the linking mode as described in cmd/cgo/doc.go.
+ -linkshared
+ Link against installed Go shared libraries (experimental).
+ -memprofile file
+ Write memory profile to file.
+ -memprofilerate rate
+ Set runtime.MemProfileRate to rate.
+ -msan
+ Link with C/C++ memory sanitizer support.
+ -n
+ Dump symbol table.
+ -o file
+ Write output to file (default a.out, or a.out.exe on Windows).
+ -pluginpath path
+ The path name used to prefix exported plugin symbols.
+ -r dir1:dir2:...
+ Set the ELF dynamic linker search path.
+ -race
+ Link with race detection libraries.
+ -s
+ Omit the symbol table and debug information.
+ -shared
+ Generated shared object (implies -linkmode external; experimental).
+ -tmpdir dir
+ Write temporary files to dir.
+ Temporary files are only used in external linking mode.
+ -u
+ Reject unsafe packages.
+ -v
+ Print trace of linker operations.
+ -w
+ Omit the DWARF symbol table.
