[PATCH] D118840: [ELF] Support (TYPE=<value>) to customize the output section type

[Fangrui Song via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

MaskRay updated this revision to Diff 408468.
MaskRay added a comment.

Remove SHT_GROUP.

Thanks for the comments.
The urgence of this syntax is dependent on how much systemd/Fedora abuses the `.note* ==> SHT_NOTE` behavior

Right now now too urgent to me.
We can give binutils more time and I'll keep pinging the binutils discussion.
If for some reason we need to push this earlier, I'll consider adding "experimental".
