TL;DR

ld

Link object files together. More information: https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.38/ld.html.

  • Link a specific object file with no dependencies into an executable:

ld path/to/file.o --output path/to/output_executable

  • Link two object files together:

ld path/to/file1.o path/to/file2.o --output path/to/output_executable

  • Dynamically link an x86_64 program to glibc (file paths change depending on the system):

ld --output path/to/output_executable --dynamic-linker /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 /lib/crt1.o /lib/crti.o -lc path/to/file.o /lib/crtn.o
