You can if you want to, but for most architectures the round trip test is enough. |

I would like to add a new binary format that is used for on-chain programs on Solana blockchain network. This format includes its unique ELF file header machine code EM_SBF which is in the list of officially assigned ELF gABI e_machines values. Solana maintains its own fork of rust compiler https://github.com/solana-labs/rust. The compiler relies on the object crate for generating synthetic symbols and metadata object files. Hence it is necessary to have SBF architecture defined in the object crate to be able to generate code for Solana on-chain programs. I will also submit an SBF object files to gimli-rs/testfiles repository.
