There are 2 failures left in the linker testsuite on SPARC64/Linux and
they are caused by 2 different issues leading to the same end effect:
the overflow of the relocation section for the GOT, i.e. the linker
generates too many dynamic relocations for the GOT wrt the size of the
relocation section, leading to memory corruption and missing relocations
in the final binary.
The first issue was introduced by:
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2017-06/msg00368.html
which makes the linker generate more R_SPARC_RELATIVE relocations for
the GOT without adjusting the size of the relocation section. This is
fixed by (1) preventively adjusting this size in allocate_dynrelocs and
(2) generating R_SPARC_NONE if needed when R_SPARC_GOTDATA_OP is relaxed.
The second issue is that we generate a GOT relocation for an undefined
weak symbol with non-default visibility in a PIC binary without accounting
for that in the size of the relocation section. Since the address of the
symbol should resolve to 0 at run time, it is fixed by not generating the
relocation at all, i.e. leaving the GOT entry zeroed.

An earlier change made find_source_lines read:
end = &data[size];
However, since 'size' is the size of the vector, this seems fishy.
More obviously ok is to compute the end of the data directly:
end = data.data () + size;

This patch also removes a zero buffer size check for PT to align with BTS. The

Remove the to_supports_btrace target method and instead rely on detecting errors
when trying to enable recording. This will also provide a suitable error
message explaining why recording is not possible.
For remote debugging, gdbserver will now always advertise branch tracing related
packets. When talking to an older GDB, this will cause GDB to try to enable
branch tracing and gdbserver to report a suitable error message every time.
An older gdbserver will not advertise branch tracing related packets if the
one-time check failed, so a newer GDB with this patch will fail to enable branch
tracing at remote_enable_btrace() rather than at btrace_enable(). The error
message is the same in both cases so there should be no user-visible change.

Change error reporting to use exceptions and be prepared to catch them in
gdbserver. We use the exception message in our error reply to GDB.
This may remove some detail from the error message in the native case since
errno is no longer printed. Later patches will improve that.
We're still using error strings on the RSP level. This patch does not affect
the interoperability of older/newer GDB/gdbserver.

Checks for insn alignment were hopelessly confused when misaligned

.byte 0 /* Bits on: GP_SAVED=0 */
.byte 2 /* FIXEDPARMS=2 */

As reported here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb/2018-02/msg00019.html
the type of values representing static members that are optimized out is
wrong. It currently assigns the type of the containing class rather
than the type of the field. This patch fixes that.
I found a place in m-static.exp already dealing with optimized out
static members, so I just added some gdb_test there.

containing type when returning an optimized out value.

Nowadays, gdbarch_read_pc is called in this way,

gdbarch_pc_regnum (gdbarch),

some ports don't have to define its own gdbarch read_pc method if the
pc value is simply a unsigned value from "pc" register. The same rule

GCC 8 will bring a new warning option which will detect possible

where the warning is triggered. This:
(void) strncpy (fhdr.magic, XCOFFARMAG, SXCOFFARMAG);
