--- Comment #3 from Peter Smith <peter.smith at arm dot com> --- As I understand it [*] just adding the script on the command line but without the -T or --script will cause the linker to merge without the need for INSERT etc. I agree that this is not intuitive outside the use case of GROUP for files, so I think adding a command line option is useful. It would be good to concentrate on the semantics. I don't have a proposal right now, although I tend towards making the scope of the first implementation as narrow as possible. It could be expanded later on. For example just do a simple 1:1 replacement of an existing section name. If there is no-match then it can be added via the normal orphan placement rules. [*] I had a recent experience when a colleagues binary wasn't running and it was caused by forgetting -T so a full linker script got merged with the internal linker script, which unfortunately clashed enough to break the program but not report errors. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
