Description

It looks like some BSPs with their own linkcmds may have shrunk too much. Norm appears to be 50% while some went to 75-80%. A second look after catching the pattern indicates that the KEEP() section requirements in the linker scripts were not correct and it was missed.

Rather than reverting a bunch of patches, this ticket is to review all function-section patches from this one back in time for cxx_iostream shrinking too much.

After a review of all potential BSPs, I have determined that these are the ones which are almost certainly missing KEEP() sections. This drops the set considerably.

As a practical matter, the BSPs will be converted to use a shared linkcmds.base or have the use of function-sections disabled by commenting out the added lines. We need to work out the details but the same comment should be added above those lines like this (review and approve):

# This BSP does not either (a) use a shared linkcmds base file or (b) include
# proper KEEP() directives in its linkcmds* files. Because of these arguments
# can not currently be enabled.

In 449905a8acaa5eac214c51ef2547b0321e86d6b2/rtems:

m68k/mvme*: switch to shared linkcmds.base

updates #2542.

All BSPs which had function sections enabled and clearly broke cxx_iostream should now have per function section linking disabled and a separate ticket filed.
