            Bug ID: 24613
           Summary: ld --help for -z defs and --no-undefined
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.33 (HEAD)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: dilyan.palauzov at aegee dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

With ld.gold und ld.bfd 2.32.51.20190429, ld.gold --help prints:
--no-undefined              Report undefined symbols (even with --shared)
-z defs                     Report undefined symbols (even with --shared)
which means, that --no-undefined and -z defs is the same, as the description is
the same.

ld.bfd --help prints for the same
--no-undefined              Do not allow unresolved references in object files
-z defs                     Report unresolved symbols in object files

which suggests, that the two directives do different things.

Please align the description of ld.bfd --help for “-z defs” and
“--no-undefined” to be the same.
