I get some spurious changes when running autoconf/automake for various
projects in the tree. This is likely because they were generated using
distro-patched tools last time.
I ran `autoreconf -f` in the various automake projects of the
binutils-gdb tree, and this is the result. The tools I am using have
been compiled from source, from the upstream release.

This test checks code layout by function symbol ordering, but that
doesn't work on powerpc64 ELFv1 where the function symbol is on a
descriptor. A simple work-around is to have nm emit synthetic symbols
marking the code entry point of functions. Since the text segment is
laid out before the data segment, the synthetic symbols will have
lower addresses than function descriptor symbols and be seen first in
nm -n output.
On other targets, nm --synthetic typically emits symbols on plt
entries. Since the testcase doesn't call any of the functions of
interest there shouldn't be plt entries for those functions, so there
should be no potentially confusing extra symbols.

The patch allows the gold testsuite to pass when using something like
the following configure line, which works for the rest of the binutils
testsuite. At least, it does if you don't configure your gcc with any
of the options that force a particular path to as or ld.

gold's -Bgcctestdir/ option must come before the -B supplied by $CC
or $CXX, in order to pick up the linker we want to test. Also when
using a not-yet-installed gcc, it is necessary to provide a collect-ld
in gcctestdir/ as otherwise a collect-ld script in -B${gccdir}gcc/
will be used and the wrong linker tested.
Besides this, the patch fixes some bugs: The $COMPILE -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE
edit was wrong (but worked for usual values), and the $CXXLINK_S edit
unnecessarily but harmlessly used extra backslash quoting. See
posix shell documentation regarding quoting, or
www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bashref.html#Command-Substitution
Also, -Bgcctestdir/ in one place makes it less likely a new test will
be added that accidentally lacks the option.

When an .eh_frame section has deferred layout because of plugins, gold

When generating _end, _edata, etc. symbols, and a version script provides
a version name, and we are linking against another shared library that
provides those symbols with a different version, gold ends up trying to
resolve the other shared library's symbols to the new definitions, resulting
in two copies of each symbol, one as default, and one as non-default.
This patch tests for that condition, and ignores the symbols provided
by the other shared library.

The original patch did not give the target enough hooks to discover that
an input object file does not have a particular property. For the
GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_AND property, for example, where a missing
property should be assumed to be all zeroes, and ANDed with other
object modules, this is essential. We now store the target-specific
properties locally in the Target structure as native uint32_t fields,
then AND the per-object feature bits with the program's feature bits
when we're finished processing each input object file. The target-specific
properties are then added back to the output note section during
finalization.

When we have a weak reference to a symbol defined in an
as-needed library, and that library ends up not-needed, gold
simply clears the version information in the symbol table, even
if the symbol could have been resolved by a needed library later
in the link order. This results in a loss of version information,
which can cause the program to bind to the wrong version at run
time.
This patch lets a dynamic definition override an earlier one if
the earlier one is from a not-needed library, so that we can
retain the version information from the binding to the needed
library. In order to do that, the tracking of needed/not-needed
had to be moved up to symbol resolution time, instead of during
Symbol_table::set_dynsym_indexes().
In cases where we still end up discarding version information,
I've added a warning.

When trying to run the update-gnulib.sh script in gdb, I get this:
Error: Wrong automake version (Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\${ <-- HERE ([^ =:+{}]+)}/ at /opt/automake/1.11.1/bin/automake line 4113.), we need 1.11.1.
Aborting.
Apparently, it's an issue with a regex in automake that triggers a
warning starting with Perl 5.22. It has been fixed in automake 1.15.1.
So I think it's a good excuse to bump the versions of autoconf and
automake used in the gnulib import. And to avoid requiring multiple
builds of autoconf/automake, it was suggested that we bump the required
version of those tools for all binutils-gdb.
For autoconf, the 2.69 version is universally available, so it's an easy
choice. For automake, different distros and distro versions have
different automake versions. But 1.15.1 seems to be the most readily
available as a package. In any case, it's easy to build it from source.
I removed the version checks from AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS and AC_PREREQ,
because I don't think they are useful in our case. They only specify a
lower bound for the acceptable version of automake/autoconf. That's
useful if you let the user choose the version of the tool they want to
use, but want to set a minimum version (because you use a feature that
was introduced in that version). In our case, we force people to use a
specific version anyway. For the autoconf version, we have the check in
config/override.m4 that enforces the version we want. It will be one
less thing to update next time we change autotools version.
I hit a few categories of problems that required some changes. They are
described below along with the chosen solutions.
Problem 1:
configure.ac:17: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments forms are deprecated. For more info, see:
configure.ac:17: http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Modernize-AM_005fINIT_005fAUTOMAKE-invocation
Solution 1:
Adjust the code based on the example at that URL.
Problem 2 (in zlib/):
Makefile.am: error: required file './INSTALL' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'INSTALL'
Makefile.am: error: required file './NEWS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './AUTHORS' not found
Makefile.am: error: required file './COPYING' not found
Makefile.am: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'COPYING'
Solution 2:
Add the foreign option to AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
Problem 3:
doc/Makefile.am:20: error: support for Cygnus-style trees has been removed
Solution 3:
Remove the cygnus options.
Problem 4:
Makefile.am:656: warning: 'INCLUDES' is the old name for 'AM_CPPFLAGS' (or '*_CPPFLAGS')
Solution 4:
Rename "INCLUDES = " to "AM_CPPFLAGS += " (because AM_CPPFLAGS is
already defined earlier).
Problem 5:
doc/Makefile.am:71: warning: suffix '.texinfo' for Texinfo files is discouraged; use '.texi' instead
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering

doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: (rather than in the srcdir) the generated '.info' files that
doc/Makefile.am: appear to be cleaned, by e.g. being listed in CLEANFILES or
doc/Makefile.am: DISTCLEANFILES.
doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 5:
Rename .texinfo files to .texi.
Problem 6:
doc/Makefile.am: warning: Oops!
doc/Makefile.am: It appears this file (or files included by it) are triggering
doc/Makefile.am: an undocumented, soon-to-be-removed automake hack.
doc/Makefile.am: Future automake versions will no longer place in the builddir

doc/Makefile.am: If you want your '.info' files to be placed in the builddir
doc/Makefile.am: rather than in the srcdir, you have to use the shiny new
doc/Makefile.am: 'info-in-builddir' automake option.
Solution 6:
Remove the hack at the bottom of doc/Makefile.am and use
the info-in-builddir automake option.
Problem 7:
doc/Makefile.am:35: error: required file '../texinfo.tex' not found
doc/Makefile.am:35: 'automake --add-missing' can install 'texinfo.tex'
Solution 7:
Use the no-texinfo.tex automake option. We also have one in
texinfo/texinfo.tex, not sure if we should point to that, or move it
(or a newer version of it added with automake --add-missing) to
top-level.
Problem 8:
Makefile.am:131: warning: source file 'config/tc-aarch64.c' is in a subdirectory,
Makefile.am:131: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled. For now, the corresponding output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory. However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
Solution 8:
Use subdir-objects, that means adjusting references to some .o that will now
be in config/.

During a -r (or --emit-relocs) link, if two sections had the same name but
different section types, gold would put relocations for both sections into
the same relocation section even though the data sections remained separate.
For .eh_frame sections, when one section is PROGBITS and another is
X86_64_UNWIND, we really should be using the UNWIND section type and
combining the sections anyway. For other sections, we should be
creating one relocation section for each output data section.

In PR 22868, two IR files provide conflicting visibility for a symbol.
When a def with PROTECTED visibility is seen after a def with DEFAULT
visibility, gold does not override the visibility. Later, if the
replacement object define the symbol with DEFAULT visibility, the symbol
remains DEFAULT. This was caused by a recent change to allow multiply-defined
absolute symbols, combined with the fact that the plugin framework was using
SHN_ABS as the section index for placeholder symbols. The solution is to
use a real (but arbitrary) section index.

Gold plugins may wish to further process an input file added by a plugin. For
example, the plugin may need to assign a unique segment for sections in a
plugin-generated input file. This patch adds a plugin callback that the linker
will call when reading symbols from a new input file added after the
all_symbols_read event (i.e. an input file added by a plugin).

This is a partial fix for the gold testsuite failures documented in
PR 21090. The use of -fpie triggers some mov-to-lea optimizations that
are not compatible with incremental linking, so those optimizations need
to be disabled. We also diagnose the attempt to use -pie with incremental
linking, and force -no-pie for the incremental tests in case the build has
been configured to have GCC pass -pie all the time.
We still have a problem where compiling with -fpie results in some GOT
entries even when linking with -no-pie. This combination still causes test
failures because we are not updating the GOT entries in an incremental update
link.

The problem is that while the command line isn't trivially empty,
it contains no input files. As gold tries to configure the number
of threads to use based on the number of input files, this causes
the assertion failure above. Fix this problem by making the logic

about --start-lib to options.cc.

This patch fixes the build with GCC 4.2:

* testsuite/pr22266_a.c: Add a newline at end of file.
The fix for PR 19291 broke some other cases where -r is used with scripts,
as reported in PR 22266. The original fix for PR 22266 ended up breaking
many cases for REL targets, where the addends are stored in the section data,
and are not being adjusted properly.
The problem was basically that in a relocatable output file (ET_REL),
symbol values are supposed to be relative to the start address of their
section. Usually in a relocatable file, all sections start at 0, so the
failure to get this right is often irrelevant, but with a linker script,
we occasionally see an output section whose starting address is not 0,
and gold would occasionally write a symbol with its relocated value instead
of its section-relative value.
This patch reverts the recent fix for PR 22266 as well as my original fix
for PR 19291. The original fix moved the symbol value adjustment to
write_local_symbols, but neglected to undo a few places where the adjustment
was also being applied, resulting in an occasional double adjustment. The
more recent fix removed those other adjustments, but then failed to
re-account for the adjustment when rewriting the relocations on REL targets.
With the old attempts reverted, we now apply the symbol value adjustment to
the one case that had been missed (non-section symbols in merge sections).
But now we also need to account for the adjustment when rewriting the addends
for RELA relocations.
