Constant Summary

FLAG_ALLOC =

From bfd.h: ‘Tells the OS to allocate space for this section when loading.

This is clear for a section containing debug information only.'

'ALLOC'

FLAG_LOAD =

From bfd.h: ‘Tells the OS to load the section from the file when loading. This is clear for a .bss section.’

'LOAD'

FLAG_RELOC =

From bfd.h: ‘The section contains data still to be relocated, so there is some relocation information too.’

'RELOC'

FLAG_RO =

From bfd.h: ‘A signal to the OS that the section contains read only data.’

'READONLY'

FLAG_CODE =

From bfd.h: ‘The section contains code only.’

'CODE'

FLAG_DATA =

From bfd.h: ‘The section contains data only.’

'DATA'

FLAG_CTOR =

From bfd.h: ‘The section contains constructor information. This section type is used by the linker to create lists of constructors and destructors used by <<g++>>. When a back end sees a symbol which should be used in a constructor list, it creates a new section for the type of name (e.g., <<CTOR_LIST>>), attaches the symbol to it, and builds a relocation. To build the lists of constructors, all the linker has to do is catenate all the sections called <<CTOR_LIST>> and relocate the data contained within - exactly the operations it would peform on standard data.’

'CONSTRUCTOR'

FLAG_LOCAL =

From bfd.h: ‘The section contains thread local data.’

'THREAD_LOCAL'
