Bug ID: 18847
Summary: Gold: Address of section moves backward when aligned.
Product: binutils
Version: 2.25
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2

section_pointer_increase.patch
When using a linker script that added alignment for the output section I got
the following error:
ld.gold: error: address of section '.bss' moves backward from 0x10200b0 to
0x101ecc0
Simplified the linker script looked like this:
.data ALIGN(0x10000) :
{
*(.data)
*(.data.*)
*(.gnu.linkonce.d.*)
SORT(CONSTRUCTORS)
} > mem :ph_ram
.bss :
{
*(.bss)
*(.bss.*)
*(COMMON)
*(.gnu.linkonce.b.*)
} > mem :ph_ram
I'm attaching a patch that fixes the problem. The way I saw it was that when
the alignment was added a specific address was assigned to that section and
there by the output section pointer was not increased with its size.
