6.1.9.39.10 Merge Flag

This flag is deprecated. Consider, instead, using the optim psect flag.

The merge psect flag controls how the psect will be merged with others. This flag can be assigned 0, 1, or not specified. When assigned 0, the psect will never be merged by the assembly optimizer during optimizations. If assigned the value 1, the psect can be merged if other psect attributes allow it and the optimizer can see an advantage in doing so. If this flag is not specified, then merging will not take place.

Typically, merging is only performed on code-based psects (text psects).
