I think I have a testcase where ld --gc-sections erroneously

This testcase is adapted from Linux kernel build.
Kernel image is linked using custom linker scr

Hi Denis,
Flushing stdout before emitting the error/information message seems to be the
right thing to do. Please could you try out the uploaded patch and let me know
if it works for you.
Cheers
Nick

Alignment padding should not be written for .bss, but it is because the output
.bss has SEC_HAS_CONTENTS set. See ldwite.c:build_link_order . SEC_HAS_CONTENTS is set because
arch_x86_64_kernel_built-in.o
