Thank you.

    You can run the compiler from the command line with the --mapfile_contents=help linker option and it will tell you the attributes and what they mean:

    % cl6x -z --mapfile_contents=help
<linking>
TMS320C6x Linker                        v7.3.0
Tools Copyright (c) 1996-2011 Texas Instruments Incorporated

The --mapfile_contents option controls display filter settings by specifying a 
comma-delimited list of display attributes.  When prefixed with the word "no",
an attribute is disabled instead of enabled.

The following attributes are available:

      copytables: copy tables                                  (default: on)
       crctables: CRC tables                                   (default: on)
     dynsym_name: dynamic symbols sorted by name               (default: on)
           entry: entry point                                  (default: on)
             got: Global Offset Table (GOT) entries            (default: on)
      hidden_sym: hidden symbols                               (default: on)
     impexp_name: imported and exported symbols sorted by name (default: on)
       load_addr: display load addresses                       (default: off)
   localized_sym: localized symbols                            (default: on)
          memory: memory ranges                                (default: on)
             plt: Procedure Linkage Table entries              (default: on)
        sections: sections                                     (default: on)
        segments: ELF segments                                 (default: on)
        sym_defs: defined symbols per file                     (default: off)
        sym_name: symbols sorted by name                       (default: on)
     sym_runaddr: symbols sorted by run address                (default: on)
     trampolines: trampolines                                  (default: on)
             all: enables all attributes                      
            none: disables all attributes                     

   Examples:  --mapfile_contents=copytables,nocrctables
              --mapfile_contents=all,nocopytables
              --mapfile_contents=none,crctables

    This is also documented in the ARM Assembly Language Tools v4.9 User's Guide (SPNU118 revision J) section 7.4.19 "Managing Map File Contents".

    Furthermore, you can ask the shell for help on options, which in this case would tell you about the option Archeologist mentions; for example:

    %> cl6x --help --mapfile_contents
      --mapfile_contents=attribute
                              Enable the display of <attribute> or disable with
                               no<attribute> in the linker generated map file.
                               Multiple attributes can be specified by separating
                               them with commas (e.g.
                               --mapfile_contents=sections,nosymbols).  Type
                               --mapfile_contents=help for a list of attributes.
