Subject: [ELF] --gc-sections: collect unused SHF_LINK_ORDER .gcc_except_table
X-Git-Tag: llvmorg-14-init~15857
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6a1235211dab51855d51481daf4099c96221c4bf;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fllvm.git

[ELF] --gc-sections: collect unused SHF_LINK_ORDER .gcc_except_table

A SHF_LINK_ORDER .gcc_except_table is similar to a .gcc_except_table in
a section group. The associated text section is responsible for retaining it.

LLD still does not support GC of non-group non-SHF_LINK_ORDER .gcc_except_table -
but that is not necessary because we can teach the compiler to set SHF_LINK_ORDER.
