* don't set/adjust section file positions or vmas more than once
* use correct page size and segment size when calculating them
* deal with some variations in a.out implementations
Tested on sun4 and sun4->sun3 so far, will be testing further but
needed to get wider exposure&testing. See ChangeLog for details.
Also:
* coffcode.h (coff_write_relocs): Write out swapped reloc, not
pre-swapped version.
* hosts/sparc.h (abort, exit): Hide these names if compiling with
gcc version 2, to avoid warnings.
* configure.in: Rewrite target parsing to use simple format.
Handle sparc-sun-solaris2 configuration.
* aout64.h: Avoid ANSI C brain death warning.
* elf.c: Avoid trigraph (???) or /* in comments.
elf_core_tdata_struct into a single common struct. Core files
wouldn't have worked at all without this.
(bfd_elf_find_section): New function for GDB's undercover use
to find string sections that BFD hides from it.
(elf_get_str_section): Avoid multiple alloc&reads for same data; lint.
(elf_object_p, elf_core_file_p): Allocate internal file header
storage dynamically.
* bfd.c (union {...} tdata): Remove elf_core_tdata_struct.
* demo64.c: Prevent "empty translation unit" warnings from idiots.
* working reloc lookup support
* better support for creation of COFF files from scratch
* misc doc changes, macro tweaks, "const" additions, typo fixes, etc.
* one or two ugly kludges that should get cleaned up (but what's one
or two more, in BFD?)
See ChangeLog for details.
* coff-a29k.c (perform_reloc): fix bug in jmp/call evaluation
* coff-h8300.c (reloc_processing): all relocs are relative to
section start.
* opncls.c: don't use fdopen on DOS systems
short patches from Glenn Kasten (glenn@ready.com)
* target.c: enabled oasys support
* oasys.c: Insert . when UNDERSCORE_HACK is enabled,
fix problem where a relocation which crossed a modification byte
boundary did not work. Fix problem where a relocation near the end
of a data record did not work.
Major change; changed calling convention for
bfd_get_relocated_section_contents so that caller allocates
memory for section data.
* coffcode.h (bfd_coff_get_relocated_section_contents), reloc.c,
seclet.c, targets.c, bfd.c: reflect new convention.
* coffcode.h (styp_to_sec_flags): if styp_flags is not a special
case, then use reasonable default values for SEC_* flags.
* ieee.c: if some places where null pointers were used instead of &bfd_abs_section.
* configure.in: tandem target is st2000
* coff-m68k.c: rename static howto_table to global
m68kcoff_howto_table.
* bout.c: remove unnecessary abort
bout.c (b_out_squirt_out_relocs): treat abs sumbols the right way.
* reloc.c (bfd_perform-relocation): don't relocate refs to
absolute symbols if doing a partial link.
structure before initializing the fields that are used, so that the unused
fields are in a known state. Two of these structures are memcmp'd so
any fields not explicitly initialized must be set to a known state.
* bfd.c: lint
* coff-h8300.c: fix stupid reloc subtraction bug
* coffcode.h (coff_swap_aux_out): only swap a tvndx by 2 bytes,
since that's how wide it is. (coff_slurp_symbol_table): always zero out
the symbol.flags and done_lineno fields.
out tagndx too.
* aoutx.h (swap_std_reloc_out, swap_ext_reloc_out): use the output
section of a symbol rather than the section of a reffed symbol to
determine the r_index of an emmitted reloc.
