Hello, Todays 2.6.26-git kernel produces an insane amout of section headers in the vmlinux file, one for every function. Is that intentional, or a toolchain problem on my side (binutils-2.18, gcc-4.2.4)? ELF Header: Magic: 7f 45 4c 46 01 01 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 Class: ELF32 Data: 2's complement, little endian Version: 1 (current) OS/ABI: UNIX - System V ABI Version: 0 Type: EXEC (Executable file) Machine: MIPS R3000 Version: 0x1 Entry point address: 0x801045d0 Start of program headers: 52 (bytes into file) Start of section headers: 29726396 (bytes into file) Flags: 0x50001001, noreorder, o32, mips32 Size of this header: 52 (bytes) Size of program headers: 32 (bytes) Number of program headers: 2 Size of section headers: 40 (bytes) Number of section headers: 9282 Section header string table index: 9279 Section Headers: [Nr] Name Type Addr Off Size ES Flg Lk Inf Al [ 0] NULL 00000000 000000 000000 00 0 0 0 [ 1] .text PROGBITS 80100000 002000 009bd0 00 AX 0 0 32 [ 2] .text.run_init_pr PROGBITS 80109bd0 00bbd0 000018 00 AX 0 0 4 [ 3] .text.init_post PROGBITS 80109be8 00bbe8 0000f0 00 AX 0 0 4 [ 4] .text.name_to_dev PROGBITS 80109cd8 00bcd8 0002dc 00 AX 0 0 4 [ 5] .text.prom_getcmd PROGBITS 80109fb4 00bfb4 00000c 00 AX 0 0 4 [ 6] .text.prom_init_c PROGBITS 80109fc0 00bfc0 0000c4 00 AX 0 0 4 [ 7] .text.prom_getenv PROGBITS 8010a084 00c084 000110 00 AX 0 0 4 [ 8] .text.prom_get_et PROGBITS 8010a194 00c194 000160 00 AX 0 0 4 [ 9] .text.local_enabl PROGBITS 8010a2f4 00c2f4 000048 00 AX 0 0 4 [10] .text.local_disab PROGBITS 8010a33c 00c33c 000048 00 AX 0 0 4 [11] .text.plat_irq_di PROGBITS 8010a384 00c384 000220 00 AX 0 0 4 [12] .text.restore_au1 PROGBITS 8010a5a4 00c5a4 00021c 00 AX 0 0 4 [13] .text.mask_and_ac PROGBITS 8010a7c0 00c7c0 000048 00 AX 0 0 4 [14] .text.mask_and_ac PROGBITS 8010a808 00c808 000048 00 AX 0 0 4 [15] .text.mask_and_ac PROGBITS 8010a850 00c850 000050 00 AX 0 0 4 [16] .text.save_au1xxx PROGBITS 8010a8a0 00c8a0 000154 00 AX 0 Thanks!
