Currently empty .bss checks performed do not pay attention to "common objects" in object files which end up in .bss section eventually. The "size" tool is a part of binutils and since version 2.18 provides "--common" command line option, which allows to account "common objects" sizes in .bss section size. Utilize "size --common" to perform accurate check that .bss section is unused. Besides that the size tool handles object files without .bss section gracefully and doesn't require additional objdump run. The linux kernel requires binutils 2.20 since 4.13. Kbuild exports OBJSIZE to reference the right size tool.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
