None of them (well except for --embedded-relocs) has any target specific effects, and so you should not need to test them for your particular port. Cheers Nick PS. The --embedded-relocs option does have a target specific effect, but it is only used by a very few targets (bfin, cr16, m68k) and I doubt if it is needed for your target. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
binutils options
Hi, I am porting binutils to my new architecture. I have made changes similar to one of the architecture which GNU binutils already supports. I am also able to do testing of binutils using dejaGNU. But, there are few options for which I am stuck up and not able to test these options. These are as follows if someone can help: 1.--strip-discarded 2.--no-strip-discarded 3.--embedded-relocs 4.--fatal-warnings 5.--no-fatal-warnings 6.-fini SYMBOL 7.--force-exe-suffix 8.--init SYMBOL 9.--no-undefined-version 10. --no-warn-mismatch 11. --no-warn-search-mismatch 12. --spare-dynamic-tags COUNT 13. --split-by-reloc [=COUNT] 14. --task-link SYMBOL I need examples in C so that I can generate assemble from my compiler and use linker of binutils for these options -- Thanks, Parul ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
