-*- text -*-
+* GAS now understands an extended syntax in the .section directive flags
+ for COFF targets that allows the section's alignment to be specified. This
+ feature has also been backported to the 2.20 release series, starting with
+ 2.20.1.
+
* Add support for the Renesas RX processor.
Changes in 2.20:
#define OBJ_HEADER "obj-coff.h"
#include "as.h"
+#include "safe-ctype.h"
#include "obstack.h"
#include "subsegs.h"
'r' for read-only data
's' for shared data (PE)
'y' for noread
+ '0' - '9' for power-of-two alignment (GNU extension).
But if the argument is not a quoted string, treat it as a
subsegment number.
/* Strip out the section name. */
char *section_name;
char c;
+ int alignment = -1;
char *name;
unsigned int exp;
flagword flags, oldflags;
attr != '"'
&& ! is_end_of_line[attr])
{
+ if (ISDIGIT (attr))
+ {
+ alignment = attr - '0';
+ continue;
+ }
switch (attr)
{
case 'b':
}
sec = subseg_new (name, (subsegT) exp);
+ if (alignment >= 0)
+ sec->alignment_power = alignment;
oldflags = bfd_get_section_flags (stdoutput, sec);
if (oldflags == SEC_NO_FLAGS)
ignored. (For compatibility with the ELF version)
@item y
section is not readable (meaningful for PE targets)
+@item 0-9
+single-digit power-of-two section alignment (GNU extension)
@end table
If no flags are specified, the default flags depend upon the section name. If
