The constant EF_ARC_CPU_GENERIC is defined in the include/elf/arc.h
file, and is used in a few places in binutils, however, this constant
should never make it into the elf header flags; we always set a valid
cpu type in the assembler, which should then be copied over during
linking.
There are some non-gnu arc compilers that don't write an architecture
type into the e_flags field, instead leaving the field as 0, which is
the EF_ARC_CPU_GENERIC value. This non-gnu compiler uses the machine
type to distinguish between the old and newer arc architectures, setting
the machine type to EM_ARC_COMPACT for old arc600, arc601, and arc700
architectures, while using EM_ARC_COMPACT2 for newer arcem and archs
architectures.
Previously when displaying the machine flags for an older EM_ARC_COMPACT
machine, if the e_flags had not been filled in, then we relied on the
default case statement to display the message "Generic ARCompact", while
in the EM_ARC_COMPACT2 case we specifically handled EF_ARC_CPU_GENERIC
to print "ARC Generic", leaving the default case to print a message
about unrecognised cpu flag.
After this commit EF_ARC_CPU_GENERIC has been removed, for both machine
types EM_ARC_COMPACT and EM_ARC_COMPACT2 we now rely on the default case
statement to handle the situation where the e_flags has not been filled
in. The message displayed is now "Unknown ARCompact" (for older arc
architectures) and "Unknown ARC" (for the newer architectures). The
switch from "Generic" to "Unknown" in the message string is for clarity,
calling the file "Generic" can give the impression that the file is
compiled for a common sub-set of the architectures, and would therefore
run on any type of machine (or at least any type of new or old machine
depending on if the machine type is ARC or ARCv2). However, this was
not what "Generic" meant, it really meant "Unknown", so that's what we
now say.
As part of the merging of the readelf flag reading code, I have unified
the strings used in displaying the ELF ABI. This means that for older
arc machines (arc600, arc601, and arc700) the string used for the
original ABI, and ABIv2 have changed, the current ABIv3 remains the
same. For the newer architectures (arcem and archs) the abi strings
remain unchanged in all cases.
bfd/ChangeLog:
* elf32-arc.c (arc_elf_print_private_bfd_data): Remove use of
EF_ARC_CPU_GENERIC.
(arc_elf_final_write_processing): Don't bother setting cpu field
in e_flags, this will have been set elsewhere.
binutils/ChangeLog:
* readelf.c (get_machine_flags): Move arc processing into...
(decode_ARC_machine_flags): ... new function. Remove use of
EF_ARC_CPU_GENERIC, change default case from "generic arc" to
"unknown arc". Merged ABI printing between two machine types.
gas/ChangeLog:
* config/tc-arc.c (arc_select_cpu): Remove use of
EF_ARC_CPU_GENERIC.
include/ChangeLog:
* elf/arc.h (EF_ARC_CPU_GENERIC): Delete. Update related comment.
This commit restructures the selection of the default cpu/mach so that
the choice is made from md_begin (if the user has not provided a command
line choice). This will reduce the amount of change needed in a later
patch.
At the request of Synopsys, the default architecture changes to ARC700
from this commit, previously the default was a non-existent
super-architecture that contained all instructions from all arc
variants. There's some clean up associated with removing the default
merged architecture, and a small test fix now that the default is
ARC700.

When the DWARF address size is 32-bit, but the host machine is 64-bit,
objdump fails to spot base addresses specified in the .debug_ranges and
.debug_loc lists.
As an example, here is the output when dumping an example .debug_ranges
section with the pre-patched objdump:
Contents of the .debug_ranges section:
Offset Begin End
00000000 ffffffff 00000004 (start > end)
00000000 00000000 00000004
00000000 ffffffff 00000008 (start > end)
00000000 00000000 00000004
00000000 <End of list>
And this is what the same section looks like when dumped with the
patched version of objdump:
Contents of the .debug_ranges section:
Offset Begin End
00000000 ffffffff 00000004 (base address)
00000000 00000004 00000008

* binutils-all/dw2-ranges.W: New file.
This patch fixes all occurences of left-shifting negative constants in C code
which is undefined by the C standard.
binutils/ChangeLog:
* dwarf.c (read_leb128): Fix left shift of negative value.
readelf ought to notify when a symbol wrongly has both a version
definition and a needed version. This patch does that, and removes
the heuristic that only defined symbols in SHT_NOBITS sections have
verneed entries.
* readelf (process_version_sections): Check DT_VERNEED and
DT_VERDEF for all symbols. Report "*both*" should a symbol
have both a verneed and verdef.
(get_symbol_version_string): Reduce indentation by early
exits. Don't use SHT_NOBITS heuristic to detect case where a
defined symbol has a verneed entry.
binutils * binutils.c (process_netbsd_elf_note): New function.
(process_note): Call the new function for NetBSD core notes.
include * common.h (NT_NETBSD_MARCH): Define.
