10 // sections from output. Unused sections are sections that are not reachable
11 // from known GC-root symbols or sections. Naturally the feature is
12 // implemented as a mark-sweep garbage collector.
14 // Here's how it works. Each InputSectionBase has a "Live" bit. The bit is off
15 // by default. Starting with GC-root symbols or sections, markLive function
16 // defined in this file visits all reachable sections to set their Live
17 // bits. Writer will then ignore sections whose Live bits are off, so that
18 // such sections are not included into output.
