> Petar, would you please add your testcase to the gcc testsuite and repost the patch. Hi Catherine, Sure, I can repost the patch and add the test case I used. My concern - and I would appreciate feedback from you and others on it - is that the test I originally used to report [1] the problem creates a large executable (380 MB). Here is a variant of it: /* { dg-do run } */ #include <stdio.h> #if defined(__GLIBC__) && (__GLIBC__ < 2 || (__GLIBC__ == 2 && __GLIBC_MINOR__ < 21)) #define BROKEN #endif int main (void) { #ifndef BROKEN asm(".fill 100000000, 4, 0x00000000\n"); #endif return 0; } The test also takes time to execute. Obviously, I can make it slightly more complex and make execute time short. Another path is to introduce and use options such as "Wl,-Ttext-segment" to make its size smaller. Any other ideas?
