Section Types

Section Types are described in the Intel® Itanium ™ Processor-specific Application Binary Interface, Chapter 4.2. LSB conforming implementations are not required to use any sections in the range from SHT_IA_64_LOPSREG to SHT_IA_64_HIPSREG. Additionally, LSB conforming implementations are not required to support the SHT_IA_64_PRIORITY_INIT section, beyond the gABI requirements for the handling of unrecognized section types, linking them into a contiguous section in the object file created by the static linker.
