22 /* This is a BFD backend which may be used to write binary objects.
23 It may only be used for output, not input. The intention is that
24 this may be used as an output format for objcopy in order to
25 generate raw binary data.
27 This is very simple. The only complication is that the real data
28 will start at some address X, and in some cases we will not want to
29 include X zeroes just to get to that point. Since the start
30 address is not meaningful for this object file format, we use it
31 instead to indicate the number of zeroes to skip at the start of
32 the file. objcopy cooperates by specially setting the start
33 address to zero by default. */
