Subject: Always create dynsym section with dynamic sections
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1a6e6083b69dcb695e175b5dc02342391da6ba22;p=binutils-gdb.git

Always create dynsym section with dynamic sections

We should always create the dynsym section, even if it is empty, with
dynamic sections.

	* elflink.c (_bfd_elf_link_renumber_dynsyms): Always create the
	dynsym section, even if it is empty, with dynamic sections.
