Subject: [PATCH 0/6] ELF: Strip section header in ELF objects
Date: Tue, 30 May 2023 10:12:46 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230530171252.269552-1-hjl.tools@gmail.com> (raw)
Section header isn't mandatory on ELF executable nor shared library.
This patch set adds a new linker option, -z nosectionheader, to omit ELF
section header, an new objcopy and strip option, --strip-sections, to
remove ELF section header.
H.J. Lu (4):
bfd: Improve nm and objdump without section header
binutils: Add a --strip-sections test
ld: Add tests for -z nosectionheader and --strip-sections
ld: Add -z nosectionheader test to bootstrap.exp
Kaylee Blake (2):
ELF: Strip section header in ELF objects
ld: Add a simple test for -z nosectionheader
