Luckily, there's no difference/issue here with alias as there exist with section: https://godbolt.org/z/eWxc7P So it's just a stylistic cleanup, not a bugfix. Acked-by: Nick Desaulniers <ndesaulni...@google.com> $ grep -rn __attribute__ | grep alias didn't turn up any other cases that look like they don't use strings. -- Thanks, ~Nick Desaulniers
