Garbage collecting debug sections
I noticed that _bfd_elf_gc_mark_extra_sections attempts to unmark related debug sections when it finds an unmarked code section. When it finds .text.foo is unmarked, for example, it removes .debug_line.text.foo as well (using the section name as a suffix match check. However, it bails out after finding one such section. bfd/ * elflink.c (_bfd_elf_gc_mark_extra_sections): Don't break on first matching debug section. ld/testsuite/ * ld-gc/all-debug-sections.d: New file. * ld-gc/all-debug-sections.s: Likewise. * ld-gc/gc.exp: Execute new testcase.
