Enum Sort 

pub enum Sort {
    Func,
    Object,
    Thread,
    File,
    Untyped,
}

What kind of thing a name names, which is what .type says.

Variants

Func

@function. A call through the procedure linkage table may be made to it.

Object

@object. Data.

Thread

@tls_object. A thread-local variable, which a linker checks relocations against.

File

.file, which names the source this was assembled from rather than anything in it.

Not a thing .type can say, and here because it is a symbol and there is nowhere else for it. A debugger reads it and so does nm, and gas writes one for every file that says its own name, which is every file gcc produces.

Untyped

Nothing was said, which is what a plain label gets and is a real answer rather than a missing one: gas writes STT_NOTYPE for a label nobody stated a type for.
