[coldfire-gnu-discuss] Solution: Compiling C code without producing a .eh_frame section. (GCC 4.4.1/CS 4.4-52 Lite)

["Niels A. Moseley" <n.a.moseley@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I've upgraded to the latest CodeSourcery Lite ELF for Coldfire (uses GCC 
4.4.1). The upgraded compiler produced exception frames (.eh_frame) 
section even for pure C compiles, which the old version didn't do.

To avoid these unnecessary sections, add -fno-dwarf2-cfi-asm as a 
compiler argument.

It took me a while to figure this out -- I hope this message will help 
others.

Regards,
Niels Moseley.
