--- Comment #2 from Fangrui Song <i at maskray dot me> --- I find it very difficult to handle SHF_ALLOC sections due to data commands, range extension thunks, and other features requiring fixed-point iteration. Compressing non-SHF_ALLOC sections alone may yield a significant value, e.g. compressing .symtab and .strtab . On the lld side, I've created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/84855 . We are debating whether the option should be named --compress-sections <section-glob>=[none|zlib|zstd] or --compress-nonalloc-sections -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
