[Bug ld/17196] .rsrc section from archive members are ignored (all Windows targets)
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17196 Nick Clifton changed: What|Removed |Added Status|NEW |ASSIGNED CC||nickc at redhat dot com --- Comment #1 from Nick Clifton --- Hi Benjamin, This is not a bug. It is a feature, or mis-feature if you prefer. The problem is that the resource.o file in the resource.a archive only contains a .rsrc section. It does not contain any symbols. The linker only pulls object files out of an archive if they contain symbols that are needed by other objects in the link. So when you link rsrcbug.o with resource.a there are no unresolved symbols in rsrcbug.o and so nothing is pulled out of the archive. There are a couple of possible workarounds for this problem: * You could like with --whole-archive added before resource.a. This will force the linker to include the resource.o file even though nothing references it. Ie: i686-pc-mingw32-gcc -m32 -mwin32 -mwindows -o rsrcbug-failed.exe \ -Wl,--whole-archive rsrcbug.o resource.a -Wl,--no-whole-archive Of course this does negate one of the benefits of using archives - namely that normally only the files that your program needs are extracted from the library. * You could add a symbol to resource.o and then reference this symbol from rsrcbug.o. See the uploaded variation on your test archive for an example of how this can be done.

--just-symbols may not do what you wanted:
'--just-symbols=FILENAME'
Read symbol names and their addresses from FILENAME, but do not
relocate it or include it in the output. This allows your output
file to refer symbolically to absolute locations of memory defined
in other programs. You may use this option more than once.
You can use
for s in $(nm -u iscsi.o | awk '{ print $2 }'); do echo "-Wl,-u,$s"; done
to generate all -Wl,u,xxx.
