+# check_sym -- compare the symbols and external function references in two
+# versions of a shared library
+#
+# SYNOPSIS
+# check_sym [-ch] [old [new]]
+#
+# DESCRIPTION
+# Library developers need to be aware when they have changed the
+# ABI of a library. To assist them, check_sym examines two versions
+# of a shared library and reports changes to the following:
+# * the set of exported symbols and their strengths
+# * the set of undefined symbols referenced
+# * the set of lazily-resolved functions (PLT)
+#
+# In each case, additions and removals are reported; for exported
+# symbols it also reports when a symbol is weakened or strengthened.
+#
+# The shared libraries to compare can be specified on the
+# command-line. Otherwise, check_sym expects to be run from the
+# source directory of a library, with a shlib_version file specifying
+# the version being built and the new library in the obj subdirectory.
+# If the old library to compare against, wasn't specified either then
+# check_sym will take the highest version of that library in the
+# *current* directory, or the highest version of that library in
+# /usr/lib if it wasn't present in the current directory.
+#
+# check_sym uses fixed names in /tmp for its intermediate files,
+# as they contain useful details for those trying to understand
+# what changed. If any of them cannot be created by the user,
+# the command will fail. The files can be cleaned up using
+# the -c option.
+#
+#
+# The *basic* rules of thumb for library versions are: if you
+# * stop exporting a symbol, or
+# * change the size of a data symbol (not reported by check_sym)
+# * start exporting a symbol that an inter-dependent library needs
+# then you need to bump the MAJOR version of the library.
+#
+# Otherwise, if you:
+# * start exporting a symbol
+# then you need to bump the MINOR version of the library.

+# CAVEATS
+# The elf format is infinitely extendable, but check_sym only
+# handles a few weirdnesses. Running it on or against new archs
+# may result in meaningless results.
+#
+# BUGS
+# Should report changes in the size of exported data objects.
