--- Comment #1 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> --- Some 32-bit targets interpret VMAs as signed. See elf_backend_sign_extend_vma. For those targets the valid range of addresses is 0xffffffff80000000 to 0x7fffffff. I don't see much benefit in diagnosing out of range addresses. Also note that there are practical difficulties in implementing such bounds checking given that we'd like to have a 32-bit target linker behave the same whether it is compiled for a 32-bit host or 64-bit host. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
