bloaty: Tried to add range that is not covered by base map.

[erosca]

Passing U-Boot [1] to bloaty [2] results in:

$ make efi-x86_payload32_defconfig all -j12
$ file u-boot
u-boot: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped
$ bloaty u-boot            
bloaty: Tried to add range that is not covered by base map.
$ gcc --version
gcc (Ubuntu 7.3.0-21ubuntu1~16.04) 7.3.0

Any ideas how to overcome this?

Mostly as an FYI... have just tried this, albeit with current versions of U-boot [1] and bloaty [2], both built from source with gcc 7.5.0--3ubuntu1~18.04.

The basic bloaty u-boot now gives proper output rather than an error message. Not sure yet if the fix was in bloaty, u-boot, or both.

However bloaty -d compileunits u-boot produces an error: symtab section pointed to non-strtab section (yes u-boot is compiled with debug info)

@rfs613 I confirm your findings. Thanks!
