[PATCH] D54487: Implement llvm.commandline named metadata

[John Reagan via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

I know you are just trying to match gcc behavior, but do you know why they use SHT_PROGBITS instead of something like SHT_NOTE for the information?  On OpenVMS, we use .note entries to record compilation date/time, compiler version, command line, etc. information that is later used by our linker to print out detail link maps.  Or is the intention that the information get propagated all the way to the final executable or shared library?
