@var{flags} argument is a comma separated string of flag names. The
recognized names are @samp{alloc}, @samp{contents}, @samp{load},
@samp{noload}, @samp{readonly}, @samp{code}, @samp{data}, @samp{rom},
-@samp{exclude}, @samp{share}, and @samp{debug}. You can set the
-@samp{contents} flag for a section which does not have contents, but it
-is not meaningful to clear the @samp{contents} flag of a section which
-does have contents--just remove the section instead. Not all flags are
-meaningful for all object file formats. In particular the
-@samp{share} flag is only meaningful for COFF format files and not for
-ELF format files.
