            Bug ID: 30145
           Summary: No way to specify PE IMAGE_SCN_* characteristics
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.39
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: pali at kernel dot org
  Target Milestone: ---

In some cases, mostly for debugging purposes, it is needed to change or
overwrite default PE section characteristics (IMAGE_SCN_* flags). But after
reading gcc, ld and objcopy documentation, I did not find any way how to
achieve it. Microsoft linker link.exe allows to specify custom characteristics
via /SECTION: command line option. Something like this should be supported by
ld and objcopy.
