--- Comment #5 from cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by Alan Modra <amo...@sourceware.org>: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;h=a5018ae555cdf491005907c03f997558ba15fc47 commit a5018ae555cdf491005907c03f997558ba15fc47 Author: Alan Modra <amo...@gmail.com> Date: Wed Dec 7 14:12:26 2016 +1030 [GOLD] powerpc64le-linux fails to link large Linux kernel Gold attaches stubs to an existing section in contrast to ld.bfd which inserts a new section for stubs. If we want stubs before branches, then the stubs must be added to the previous section. Adding to the previous section is a disaster if there is a large gap between the previous section and the group. PR gold/20878 * powerpc.cc (Stub_control): Replace stubs_always_before_branch_ with stubs_always_after_branch_, group_end_addr_ with group_start_addr_. (Stub_control::can_add_to_stub_group): Rewrite to suit scanning sections by increasing address. (Target_powerpc::group_sections): Scan that way. Delete corner case. * options.h (--stub-group-size): Update help string. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
