Bug ID: 32211
Summary: 2.41 and later doesn't seem to honor the `-z` flag
Product: binutils
Version: 2.41
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: binutils
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: danmcd at mnx dot io
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 15717
--> https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=15717&action=edit
Test data and script to confirm/deny that -z works.
I will attach a .tgz that has sample data, and a simple shell script to
confirm/deny that `objdump` will or will not produce output for an all-zeros
object.
Example run of this script is included here:
smartos-build-2023(~/objdump-debug-data)[1]% ./testscript.sh

This is on SmartOS (an illumos distribution), but I've tested pre-2.41 version
on Linux with passing, and I hope to have 2.42 on actual Linux results shortly.
