--- Comment #9 from john at buu dot ac.th --- Are you telling me with a streight face to go to your proprietary competitor's documentation for an antique and dead operating system to learn about Linux when you are working for the acknowledged premier commercial support organization for Linux? Uh-huh, I guess it's some strange humor that I cannot understand due to cultural differences. Anyway, I want to say thanks for changing what you could. I did my part by reporting the bug. You did what you could fixing what you could. But please don't be like the Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy: https://www.goodreads.com/quotes/40705-but-the-plans-were-on-display-on-display-i-eventually ________________________________________ From: nickc at redhat dot com [sourceware-bugzi...@sourceware.org] Sent: Friday, January 12, 2018 5:36 PM To: John Gatewood Ham Subject: [Bug gas/22553] .largecomm, .lbss, .ldata, and .lrodata are still not documented after many, many years https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22553 --- Comment #8 from Nick Clifton <nickc at redhat dot com> --- Hi John, > I suspect the section name thing uses unwritten or perhaps Red Hat in-house > non-public rules, Hang on - I must stop you there. These section names are nothing to do with Red Hat. (Despite my email address, I wear two hats, and at the moment I am wearing my FSF hat). Plus these names *are* public. You will find the .lbss, .ldata and .lrodata section s documented in the Solaris linker manual for example: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E26507/chapter7-1.html Or in this book from google: https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=qjUqDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA318&lpg=PA318&dq=.lbss+section&source=bl&ots=f-kUHrwRjy&sig=V7Ms2dQ_YsBygp86DjHSNvWGYQQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwi7pYDEnNLYAhWFBcAKHZwHDgYQ6AEIQDAF#v=onepage&q=.lbss%20section&f=false Cheers Nick -- You are receiving this mail because: You reported the bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
