I have done some testing on this problem:
link time just before
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils-cvs/2004-07/msg00124.html:
real0m8.783s
user0m8.049s
sys 0m0.628s
After:
real13m49.
I am not sure what we can do here if any:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] strip-10]$ cat group.s
.section .text,"axG",%progbits,foo_group,comdat
.global foo
foo:
.word 0
.section .data,"awG",%progbits,foo_group,comdat
.global bar
bar:
.word 0
[EMAIL PROTECTED] str
When objcopy removes a group member section, it removes the entry in
section group. Is this the correct thing to do?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] objcopy-1]$ cat group.s
.section .text,"axG",%progbits,foo_group,comdat
.global foo
foo:
.word 0
.section .data,"awG",%progbits,foo
