- Subject: What is text.hot section in elf files ?
Hello everyone,
While scrolling down the objdump of the code for /usr/bin/gcc, There
is a section called text.hot section, which is normally not present on
the elf files. What is that? is it something specific to /usr/bin/gcc
only.How can be create such sections in our normal executables ?
