Can “nm” determine whether the undefined symbol is a function or a variable?
1
Is it possible to distinguish whether a symbol reported by nm is a function symbol or a variable symbol?
For example, if nm reports that there is an undefined symbol
U the_undefined_symbol
How can I know whether the_undefined_symbol is an undefined function or an undefined variable?

"U" - The symbol is undefined. That is all the documentation says about U symbols. Could you please provide more information?
