Subject: [PATCH 0/5] PE/COFF: assorted adjustments
Date: Fri, 6 May 2022 08:53:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4242b48a-f2c3-4af2-db1e-35dbbbdc1b2e@suse.com> (raw)
In the Xen Project we link the hypervisor both an an ELF binary and
as a native EFI one, all from largely the same (ELF) objects. On
top of earlier changes to make certain variants thereof (like
including debug in the EFI binary) a few more issues were noticed,
most related to the stripping of such binaries.
1: don't over-align file positions of PE executable sections
2: COFF: make objcopy / strip honor --keep-file-symbols
3: COFF/PE: don't leave zero timestamp after objcopy / strip
4: COFF/PE: keep linker version during objcopy / strip
5: COFF: use hash for string table also when copying / stripping
