From 792947da7e366c30ce1ecf0a365de6cf113fc35e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ralf Nolden Date: Wed, 15 Jun 2016 18:19:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Common BSD: Add --gc-sections ld flags As common bsd's are using the -ffunction-sections flags from mkspecs/common/gcc-base.conf, also use the --gc-sections ld flags like Linux as all are using GNU ld as their linker and all are capable of using it. The last remaining problems with --gc-sections removing the .name sections providing the OS tags for distinction of the execution layer were solved with NetBSD 6.0 and OpenBSD 5.4, see http://gnats.netbsd.org/40401 and http://www.openbsd.org/plus54.html so this option can safely be used now to reduce the size of moc and rcc tools.
