Hi Lionel,
The problem is that there are references (in relocations) from the .text
section to the .debug_info section. Hence it is not possible to strip out the
debug section but leave the text/data sections:
% objdump -r test.o
test.o: file format elf32-powerpc
RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.text]:
OFFSET TYPE VALUE
00000000 R_PPC_NONE .debug_info
00000000 R_PPC_NONE .debug_line
00000000 R_PPC_NONE .debug_frame+0x00000010
00000026 R_PPC_ADDR16_HA callee
[...]
I do not know why the diab compiler has put these relocations in the .text
section, but they are there and that is why strip will not work.
Cheers
Nick
