Hi Nick,
I have a local hack that defines SHF_GNU_BUILD_NOTE and allows it in
elflint. But without any documentation on what the semantics of this
section flag are. I cannot find this flag being used in the binaries
generated on Fedora 29. Is this flag ever used?
Thanks,
Mark

GNU Build Attribute ELF Notes are generated by the GCC annobin plugin
and described at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Toolchain/Watermark
Unfortunately the constants aren't yet described in the standard glibc
elf.h so they have been added to the elfutils specific elf-knowledge.h.
The notes abuse
