--ropi
Makes the load and execution region containing the RO output section position-independent.
Note
Not supported for AArch64 state.Usage
If this option is not used, the region is marked as absolute. Usually each read-only input section must be Read-Only Position-Independent (ROPI). If this option is selected, the linker:
- Checks that relocations between sections are valid.
- Ensures that any code generated by the linker itself, such as interworking veneers, is ROPI.
Note
The linker gives a downgradable error if--ropi is used without --rwpi or
--rw_base.Restrictions
You cannot use --ropi:
- With
--fpic,--scatter, or--xo_base. - When an object file contains execute-only sections.
