However, that does not fix the issue Kees is trying to solve, where a
.rodata section is emitted with the "x" bit set, which causes the
linker to complain:
/tmp/cc50ffWw.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cc50ffWw.s:2: Warning: setting incorrect section attributes for
.rodata.text
in that case why not use a top-level asm statement to set the section
and its attributes (and compile the file with fno-toplevel-reorder)?
GCC really wants to declare the section. :(
Why not then just use its mechanism to set the section on the code?
static void do_nothing_rodata(void)
__attribute__((section(".rodata")))
{
return;
}
