  65. <p>If you want to define a new <small>GNU</small> object attribute, here are the places you
  66. will need to modify. New attributes should be discussed on the &lsquo;<samp>binutils</samp>&rsquo;
  67. mailing list.
  68. </p>
  69. <ul>
  70. <li> This manual, which is the official register of attributes.
  71. </li><li> The header for your architecture <samp>include/elf</samp>, to define the tag.
  72. </li><li> The <samp>bfd</samp> support file for your architecture, to merge the attribute
  73. and issue any appropriate link warnings.
  74. </li><li> Test cases in <samp>ld/testsuite</samp> for merging and link warnings.
  75. </li><li> <samp>binutils/readelf.c</samp> to display your attribute.
  76. </li><li> GCC, if you want the compiler to mark the attribute automatically.
