Bug ID: 29319 Summary: [binutils] strip changes align of GNU_STACK segment Product: binutils Version: 2.39 (HEAD) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: binutils Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: vries at gcc dot gnu.org Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 14194 --> https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=14194&action=edit gcore-relro-pie.gz Consider the exec gcore-relro-pie (exec generated by the gdb testsuite), on which we use strip: ... $ strip -g -o gcore-relro-pie.stripped gcore-relro-pie ... The align for the GNU_STACK segment drops from 16 to 8: ... $ readelf -l -W gcore-relro-pie | egrep "GNU_STACK|Type" Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align GNU_STACK 0x000000 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x000000 0x000000 RW 0x10 $ readelf -l -W gcore-relro-pie.stripped | egrep "GNU_STACK|Type" Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flg Align GNU_STACK 0x000000 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000000000000 0x000000 0x000000 RW 0x8 ... This mismatch causes gdb to classify gcore-relro-pie as unsuitable to combine with a core file generated using gcore-relro-pie.stripped (PR29318). Binutils needs to be build with --disable-separate-code in order to trigger this. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
