Hello Wolfgang,
2014-10-23 15:10 GMT+02:00 Wolfgang Denk wd@denx.de:
Given that GCC 4.9.1 apparently solves this issue I wonder which approach we should take?
Should we blacklist GCC 4.8.x (and 4.9.0) like the kernel folks are doing [1] ?
question is: what are the gcc folks going to do with the relro stuff? It seems the sections are not used in 4.9.1, but will this be true for future releases? If we are not absolutely sure they will not be used anymore, adding them to the linker scripts is probably the best option. Anybody with deeper gcc insights following this thread?
Cheers Dirk
