+The

+command is a special-purpose program to generate the
+linker set definitions needed when building an ELF kernel.
+Its

+arguments are the names of ELF object files.
+It scans the section names of the object files,
+building a table of those that begin with
+.Dv .set. ,
+which represent linker sets.  Finally, for each set
+.Dv foo
+with 
+.Dv count
+elements, it writes a line 
+.Fn DEFINE_SET foo count ;
+to the standard output.
