Bug ID: 27753
Summary: -mx86-used-note= defaulting to yes regresses
Product: binutils
Version: 2.36.1
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: gas
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: jbeulich at suse dot com
Target Milestone: ---
In the Xen project, to test the internal insn emulator, we have a simple way of
generating binary blobs to hand to the emulator:
%.bin: %.c
$(CC) $(filter-out -M% .%,$(CFLAGS)) -c $<
$(LD) $(LDFLAGS_DIRECT) -N -Ttext 0x100000 -o $*.tmp $*.o
$(OBJCOPY) -O binary $*.tmp $@
Up to 2.35 this has been working fine. The introduction (by default) of the
.note.gnu.property section has led to all of the resulting *.bin files to be
about 128Mb in size.
Such options causing extra content to be created should imo never default to
true.
