- Subject: m68k section alignment
Hi.
The m68k section alignement is hardcoded to 2**2 (4 bytes).
Thus, assembling a single nop generates a 4-byte text section,
containing 2 bytes for the nop and 2 additionnal bytes as an unnecessary
filler.
I think that since the m68k instructions must be 2-byte aligned, the
section aligment should be the same.
Am I right ?
Regards,
Vincent Rivière
