Bug ID: 30970 Summary: [rfe] please include HPA segelf work Product: binutils Version: unspecified Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: stsp at users dot sourceforge.net Target Milestone: --- Hi guys. I've recently discovered this binutils fork by HPA: https://git.syslinux.org/users/hpa/segelf/binutils.git/ Which implements this elf extension proposal: https://git.syslinux.org/users/hpa/segelf/abi.git/tree/segelf.txt I've also found his nasm elf16 fork: https://github.com/netwide-assembler/nasm/tree/elf16 I built these things locally and ported my project to this segelf scheme without a slightest issue: https://github.com/dosemu2/fdpp/issues/172#issuecomment-1760271090 So its an absolutely marvelous piece of code, but unfortunately HPA has lost an interest to it many years ago. How feasible would it be for binutils gurus to take it over and upstream? I myself can't tell if something is missing in his impl. But it works for me perfectly well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
