Hi,
Is there a way to list all object files on my machine, and then to locate all matches to a particular function?
Many thanks and best wishes! Sincerely, GT

define "object files." Most people mean the output of an assembler (or compiler), but I'm not sure that's what you mean.
Such files generally have names ending in ".o"
I suggest you write a little script like this:
#!/bin/bash echo $1 nm $1
Shall we call it "listem" and store it in ~/bin/
Don't forget "chmod +x ~/bin/listem"
Then: find <where you expect them> -type f -name *.o \ -exec ~/bin/listem {} ; \ >/tmp/listed
If you mean "shared object" then the suffix is .so, and there might be some .a files of interest.

Many thanks! That is exactly what I mean!

I assume for .so, I would have to use nm -D? Would there be any place else (other than .o, .so and .a files) that I could find them on the system?
Many thanks again! Best wishes!

Sorry, I do not know what a .ko file is.
Best, Globe

Would you be interested in *.ko files?

locate *.ko
locate /li*.ko | xargs rpm -qf | sort -u
Probably not.
Another question: while this does give me a list of all the functions in all the files, is it possible to get only the list of object files with the function in it?
Many thanks!

Learn to research: man -k search | less
The answer's in there somewhere.
Thanks, I knew that, actually. Just wondered if there was a more elegant way.
Best wishes!

Just taking a stab at what you mean. How about:
man -k <function>
or
man -K <function>
for executable "objects".
How about:
grep -r <function> *
for most any "object" which contains the text string <function> (This is a recursive directory search).
