[PATCH] D111437: [SystemZ/z/OS] Implement GOFF writer for empty files

[Kevin P. Neal via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

kpn added inline comments.


================
Comment at: llvm/lib/MC/GOFFObjectWriter.cpp:274
+  OS.write_zeros(3);                           // Reserved
+  OS.write_be<uint32_t>(OS.logical_records()); // Record Count
+  OS.write_be<uint32_t>(ESDID);                // ESDID (of entry point)
----------------
I have found it useful to use the Unix 'dd' command to slide up GOFF files when they cause the Binder to abend. This becomes much harder when this record count field is used. I'm not sure what the upside of this field is.
