Yes, ELF has a similar flag named

Should we mirror that name and use
WASM_SEG_FLAG_RETAIN
as the name of our flag?There was a problem hiding this comment.

I chose NO_STRIP to align with the existing symbol-level flag WASM_SYMBOL_NO_STRIP, but I don't have strong opinions here.

I like to mirror the ELF flag names and I like that that assembly format "R" mnemonic matches, but I don't feel strongly. @MaskRay WDYT?

For the record, it looks like
SHF_MIPS_NOSTRIP
also exists in the ELF world andSHF_GNU_RETAIN
is a GNU extension rather than part of ELF core.There was a problem hiding this comment.

Based on how
WASM_SYMBOL_NO_STRIP
was chosen as a symbol flag name in https://reviews.llvm.org/D62542#1519799, I agree we don't need to align with it because the segment flag is not based on.no_dead_strip
. Now I feelWASM_SEG_FLAG_RETAIN
makes more sense 👍
