I believe there is a patch already in oe-core addressing the qemu issue:
meta/recipes-devtools/qemu/files/relocatable_sdk.patch
Aren't you guys using qemu from oe-core?

Personally, I would prefer you left the zero padding in place.
Otherwise, if installing in a location like /opt/test the .interp
section would look like below. Technically, the dynamic loader would not
care but it would be nice to have a clean .interp section, without
leftover strings in it...
This is how it would look like after relocation:
$ readelf -p .interp qemu-arm
String dump of section '.interp':
[ 0] /opt/test/sysroots/x86_64-pokysdk-linux/lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
[ 41] -x86-64.so.2

Do we want to check against the section memory size? I have to admit I
haven't seen, yet, any differences between p_filesz and p_memsz and the
elf manual is not very specific but I think p_filesz would give us the
size this section holds in the elf file itself. And, since we're writing
the string back, we might want to use this to make sure we have space.
Thanks,
