Bug ID: 31445
Summary: -Trodata should throw a warning
Product: binutils
Version: 2.40
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: P2
Component: ld
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: sweeten.jacob at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
Recently, I was trying to set the offset of the .rodata segment for building a
kernel. Since you can use -Ttext and -Tdata to set the offsets of those
segments, I assumed I could use -Trodata as well. Since ld didn't throw an
error or warning, I assumed it would work, so I was confused when it apparently
didn't work at all.
My suggestion is that using -Trodata should throw a warning telling the user to
use --section-start instead since -Trodata is apparently not implemented.
Alternatively, -Trodata could be aliased to --section-start
