Yes, Aaron. I tried to figure it all out. Some option doesn't works correctly. But the compiler and the linker are supporting these options. There is a log of "readelf -e imd_cbmem.o": http://pastebin.com/G5y36uU4 I also have a warning: cannot find entry symbol start; defaulting to 0000000100187000 before undefined refference errors (but I think it doesn't affect).
I have also tried to compile the simple code by gcc: http://pastebin.com/AYnxTjZx (the compilation string, code and the readelf log). I'm not doing something wrong, because I don't see sections with the name of the function. There is the same with my compiler. Maybe these options work only in conjunction with others?
If I will compile some sources of supported mainboard by coreboot, the readelf log and sections will be good with appropriate title (.text.function).
Thanks a lot! Regards, Maxim

It doesn't work any case. As I understood these options remove the unreferenced symbols, but I have referenced symbols (the error is undefined reference). The definition of the used functions is in the file that is missing at this stage but all works on other archs.
The symbol might be referenced in one function in that compilation unit, but if the symbol of the function using the undefined symbols is not referenced from any of the root symbols then it should be removed. The fact that it isn't suggests -gc-sections isn't working *or* -f(data|function)-sections isn't working. As I requested previously, readelf -e from one of the romstage .o files would confirm the latter. As it stands now I can't speculate as to what is happening because the code you are working on isn't published so I can't do anything beyond request the information I've already requested.

I wouldn't think so. If you remove that option does it magically work? From the errors you showed -gc-sections along with -fdata-sections and -ffunction-sections would have removed the unreferenced symbols and not cause a link error. To prove that -f(data|function)-sections are working can you provide the readelf -e output from an intermediate .o file you compiled for romstage?

Hello, Aaron!
I am compiling sourses of my arch e2k. I have compiled bootblock with my sources. There aren't my sources in other stages. I have create arch directory and mainboard directory where the sources are located.

Does your arch's compiler support -ffuncation-sections and -fdata-sections? As well as your linker supporting --gc-sections ? All the architectures we support have those flags. See Makefile.inc which provides those in CFLAGS_common and LDFLAGS_common. That support allows us to not sprinkle #ifdef's all around in the code when the same source file is compiled for different stages.

Hi everbody!
I have a question. Very hope for your help.
When I am compiling the romstage there are 2 errors by the linker: Undefined refference to 'bootmem_add_range' Undefined refference to 'lb_new_record' in the imd_cbmem.c file (it is included in src/lib/Makefile.inc romstage).
The definitions of these functions are in lib/bootmem.c and lib/coreboot_table.c accordingly. But I can't see the inclusion of these files in romstage in src/Makefile.inc (only in ramstage): ramstage-y += bootmem.c ramstage-y += coreboot_table.c
How to solve this problem? The inclusion of these files produces a number of other errors, but nowhere in the code no one does it? Why only I am having this error.
What board are you building? Are you working on local patches to your setup only? What does the build log indicate?
In General, I don't even need these stages (romstage and ramstage) - I want to check the performance on real hardware the work of the bootblock, but the toolchain requires me to compile other stages. And the error occurs even not in my code, but my ignorance.
Thanks a lot! Regards, Maxim
