Like omitting .PPC.EMB.apuinfo from your kernel link script?  See the
ld info doc on orphan sections.

Ok, not terribly enlightening, but why would .PPC.EMB.apuinfo sections be different than something like .debug sections which we also dont list in the linker script.

Alan,

I understand your arguments, but there is something inconsistent about this.
If I change the script to be:
       _end3 = . ;
       . = _end3;
       . = ALIGN(PAGE_SIZE);
       _end = . ;
       PROVIDE32 (end = .);
}
The result is corrected:
c067f678 A _end3
c0680000 A _end

Why the apuinfo section with zero VMA sometimes interfere with "." and sometimes not ?
