‑‑[no_]legacyalign

By default, the linker assumes execution regions and load regions to be four-byte aligned. This enables the linker to minimize the amount of padding that it inserts into the image.

The ‑‑no_legacyalign option instructs the linker to insert padding to force natural alignment. Use this option to ensure strict conformance with the ELF specification. See Section placement for more information.
