Bug #: 15033
Summary: option capable of stripping LTO (all sections
beginning with .gnu.lto_)
Product: binutils
Version: unspecified
Status: NEW
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: binutils
AssignedTo: unassig...@sourceware.org
ReportedBy: naes...@gmail.com
Classification: Unclassified
I hear that GCC *really* doesn't handle incompatible LTO information well, so I
was trying to figure out how Debian could strip it from the libpython*.a
shipped in their python2.7-dev package [1], and I was quite surprised to find
that objcopy has no suitable option: neither a --remove-sections flag that
takes wildcards, nor even a --strip-lto flag special-cased for these sections.
(Actually, I would want such an option even if GCC could detect and ignore
incompatible LTO information: that stuff is *gigantic*!)
