--- Comment #7 from H.J. Lu <hjl.tools at gmail dot com> --- (In reply to Andreas Schwab from comment #6) > But you won't get xword alignment only by aligning the sizes of the name and > data fields, you also need to insert padding before the name field. Since name is a string, we don't need to align name. We only need to pad name to align the note descriptor. Lucky for us, "GNU" is 4 bytes. So there are 4 words (2 xwords) before the note descriptor. We don't need to pad name in GNU notes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
