# Commit aa803ba38a867551917d11059eaa044955556e05 # Date 2021-05-17 15:41:28 +0200 # Author Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> # Committer Jan Beulich <jbeulich@suse.com> x86emul: fix test harness build for gas 2.36 All of the sudden, besides .text and .rodata and alike, an always present .note.gnu.property section has appeared. This section, when converting to binary format output, gets placed according to its linked address, causing the resulting blobs to be about 128Mb in size. The resulting headers with a C representation of the binary blobs then are, of course all a multiple of that size (and take accordingly long to create). I didn't bother waiting to see what size the final test_x86_emulator binary then would have had. See also https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=27753. Rather than figuring out whether gas supports -mx86-used-note=, simply remove the section while creating *.bin.
