[Bug ld/6519] New: __start_SECNAME undocumented


From: drow at sources dot redhat dot com
Subject: [Bug ld/6519] New: __start_SECNAME undocumented
Date: 14 May 2008 12:33:15 -0000

NEWS says (since 2.6):

* When an ELF section name is representable as a C identifier (this is not true
of most ELF section names), the linker will automatically define symbols
__start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME, where SECNAME is the section name, at the
beginning and the end of the section.  This is used by glibc.

But there's nothing about this in the ld manual.
