### 7.72 `.pushsection` name`[,` subsection`] [, "`flags`"[, @`type`[,`arguments`]]]`

This is one of the ELF section stack manipulation directives. The others are `.section` (see Section), `.subsection` (see SubSection), `.popsection` (see PopSection), and `.previous` (see Previous).

This directive pushes the current section (and subsection) onto the top of the section stack, and then replaces the current section and subsection with `name` and `subsection`. The optional `flags`, `type` and `arguments` are treated the same as in the `.section` (see Section) directive.
