------- Additional Comments From amodra at bigpond dot net dot au 2007-09-08 03:02 ------- Alignment padding should not be written for .bss, but it is because the output .bss has SEC_HAS_CONTENTS set. See ldwite.c:build_link_order <case lang_padding_statement_enum>. SEC_HAS_CONTENTS is set because arch_x86_64_kernel_built-in.o .bss_page_aligned is SHT_PROGBITS. This is wrong. A bss style section should be SHT_NOBITS. However, linking a SHT_PROGBITS section into .bss should simply make .bss SHT_PROGBITS. It doesn't, because .bss has its ELF section type set via bfd_elf_special_section to SHT_NOBITS too early.
