[PATCH] D56437: Support blank flag in SHT_GROUP sections for ELF

[ben via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

bd1976llvm added a comment.

I strongly feel that we shouldn't implement this. This will tie groups and --gc-sections together when they are orthogonal features; e.g. COMDAT groups will *also* have to be considered by --gc-sections as a single unit. The ability to strip individual sections form COMDAT groups is an important feature. I will add similar comment to the abi list. I'm surprised that gold implements this behavior, back in 2017 gold and bfd-ld disagreed on this.
