Hello world,
the attached patch fixes a 8/9 regression where _def_init, an internal
Fortran variable containing only zeros, was placed into the .rodata
section. This led to a large increase in executable size.
There should be no impact on other languages because the change to
varasm.c is guarded by lang_GNU_Fortran ().
Regarding the test case: I did find one other test which checks
for .bss, so I suppose this is safe.
Regression-tested with a full test (--enable-languages=all and
make -j64 -k check) on POWER9.
I would like to apply it to both affected branches.
OK for the general and the Fortran part?
Regards
Thomas
