Bug ID: 24250
Summary: [gold] Section offsets not monotonically increasing
with --gdb-index
Product: binutils
Version: 2.33 (HEAD)
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: gold
Assignee: ccoutant at gmail dot com
Reporter: vries at gcc dot gnu.org
CC: ian at airs dot com
Target Milestone: ---
[ Filed earlier as dwz PR24249 - "Section offsets not monotonically
increasing". ]
When using the gold linker to generate the .gdb_index section:
...
$ gcc hello.c -g -fuse-ld=gold -Wl,--gdb-index
...
and inspecting the section offsets around .gdb_index:
...
$ readelf -S a.out | grep '[[]' | egrep -C1 'Offset|\.gdb_index'
[Nr] Name Type Address Offset
[ 0] NULL 0000000000000000 00000000

[31] .debug_str PROGBITS 0000000000000000 00001b2f
[32] .gdb_index PROGBITS 0000000000000000 000034b0
[33] .debug_ranges PROGBITS 0000000000000000 000021f0
...
we see that the offsets are not monotonically increasing.
The property that the file offsets of the entries in the section header table
are in a monotonically increasing order, is not a requirement of the ELF
standard, but it is expected by a variety of other tools which process ELF
binaries.
