Re: [PATCH v3] strip: keep .ctf section in stripped file

Hi Mark, I am mainly wondering why binutils strip already seems to keep ".ctf" sections (even without -g). Right. But I am wondering how that mechanism works with binutils strip. Apparently we do something different in eu-strip which makes it necessary to add a --keep-ctf option based on the

Re: [PATCH v3] strip: keep .ctf section in stripped file

Hi Mark, O, this surprises me. I wasn't aware binutils strip keeps unallocated sections by default. But apparently it does. It doesn't seem specific to ".ctf". Do you know why? This seems counter to how strip is supposed to behave, at least how I understand it. Actually thinking about it, ther

Re: build-ids, .debug_sup and other IDs (Was: [PATCH] Handle DWARF 5 separate debug sections)
