Subject: [PATCH 1/6] Use default section indexes in fixup_symbol_section
Date: Wed, 18 Jan 2023 08:30:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230118153025.342512-2-tromey@adacore.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230118153025.342512-1-tromey@adacore.com>

If fixup_section does not find a matching section, it arbitrarily
chooses the first one.  However, it seems better to make this default
depend on the type of the symbol -- i.e., default data symbols to
.data and text symbols to .text.

I've also made fixup_section static, as it only has one caller.
