This is quite complicated because the CTF section's contents depend on
the final contents of the symtab and strtab, because it has two sections
whose contents are shuffled to be in 1:1 correspondence with the symtab,
and an internal strtab that gets deduplicated against the ELF strtab
(with offsets adjusted to point into the ELF strtab instead). It is
also compressed if large enough, so its size depends on its contents!
So we cannot construct it as early as most sections: we cannot even
*begin* construction until after the symtab and strtab are finalized.
Thankfully there is already one section treated similarly: compressed
debugging sections: the only differences are that compressed debugging
sections have extra handling to deal with their changing name if
compressed (CTF sections are always called ".ctf" for now, though we
have reserved ".ctf.*" against future use), and that compressed
debugging sections have previously-uncompressed content which has to be
stashed away for later compression, while CTF sections have no content
at all until we generate it (very late).
BFD also cannot do the link itself: libctf knows how to do it, and BFD
cannot call libctf directly because libctf already depends on bfd for
file I/O. So we have to use a pair of callbacks, one, examine_strtab,
which allows a caller to examine the symtab and strtab after
finalization (called from elf_link_swap_symbols_out(), right before the
symtabs are written, and after the strtab has been finalized), and one
which actually does the emission (called emit_ctf simply because it is
grouped with a bunch of section-specific late-emission function calls at
the bottom of bfd_elf_final_link, and a section-specific name seems best
for that). emit_ctf is actually called *twice*: once from lang_process
if the emulation suggests that this bfd target does not examine the
symtab or strtab, and once via a bfd callback if it does. (This means
that non-ELF targets still get CTF emitted, even though the late CTF
emission stage is never called for them).

The CTF linking process wants to deduplicate the CTF strtab against the
ELF strtab, for which it needs to know the number of strings in the
strtab and it needs to be able to extract them one by one.
The BFD strtab functions only support returning the
size-or-section-length of the strtab (with _bfd_elf_strtab_size)
and returning the offset (but not string!) and decrementing the refcount
at the same time.
So add new functions _bfd_elf_strtab_len (that just returns the length
in strings of the strtab, never the section size) and bfd_elf_strtab_str
(which returns the string at a given strtab index, and its offset,
without touching the refcount).
It is probably a mistake to use _bfd_elf_strtab_str in particular before
_bfd_elf_strtab_finalize is called, and will not produce useful output
if you do so.
v5: fix tabdamage.
bfd/
* elf-strtab.c (_bfd_elf_strtab_len): New.
(_bfd_elf_strtab_str): Likewise.
* bfd-elf.h: Declare them.
The code in ctf_bfdopen_ctfsect (which is the ultimate place where you
end up if you use ctf_open to open a CTF file and pull in the ELF string
and symbol tables) was written before it was possible to actually test
it, since the linker was not written. Now it is, it turns out that the
previous code was completely nonfunctional: it assumed that you could
load the symbol table via bfd_section_from_elf_index (...,elf_onesymtab())
and the string table via bfd_section_from_elf_index on the sh_link.
Unfortunately BFD loads neither of these sections in the conventional
fashion it uses for most others: the symbol table is immediately
converted into internal form (which is useless for our purposes, since
we also have to work in the absence of BFD for readelf, etc) and the
string table is loaded specially via bfd_elf_get_str_section which is
private to bfd/elf.c.
So make this function public, export it in elf-bfd.h, and use it from
libctf, which does something similar to what bfd_elf_sym_name and
bfd_elf_string_from_elf_section do. Similarly, load the symbol table
manually using bfd_elf_get_elf_syms and throw away the internal form
it generates for us (we never use it).
BFD allocates the strtab for us via bfd_alloc, so we can leave BFD to
deallocate it: we allocate the symbol table ourselves before calling
bfd_elf_get_elf_syms, so we still have to free it.
Also change the rules around what you are allowed to provide: It is
useful to provide a string section but no symbol table, because CTF
sections can legitimately have no function info or data object sections
while relying on the ELF strtab for some of their strings. So allow
that combination.
v4: adjust to upstream changes. ctf_bfdopen_ctfsect's first parameter
is potentially unused again (if BFD is not in use for this link
due to not supporting an ELF target).

This patch is a reimplementation of [1] which was submitted in 2015 by
Neil Schellenberger. Copyright issue was sorted out [2] last year.
It proposed a new section (.gnu.xhash) and related dynamic tag
(DT_GNU_XHASH). The new section would be virtually identical to the
existing .gnu.hash except for the translation table (xlat) which would
contain correct MIPS .dynsym indexes corresponding to the hashvals in
chains. This is because MIPS ABI imposes a different ordering on the
dynsyms than the one expected by the .gnu.hash section. Another addition
would be a leading word (ngnusyms) which would contain the number of
entries in the translation table.
In this patch, the new section name and dynamic tag are changed to
reflect the fact that the section should be treated as MIPS-specific
(.MIPS.xhash and DT_MIPS_XHASH).
This patch addresses the alignment issue as reported in [3], which is
caused by the leading word added to the .MIPS.xhash section. Leading word
is removed in this patch, and the number of entries in the translation
table is now calculated using DT_MIPS_SYMTABNO dynamic tag (this is
addressed by the corresponding glibc patch).
Suggestions on coding style in [4] were taken into account. Existing
GNU hash testcase was covered, and another one was added in the MIPS
part of the testsuite.
The other major change is reserving MIPS ABI version 5 for .MIPS.xhash,
marking the need of support for .MIPS.xhash in the dynamic linker (again,
addressed in the corresponding glibc patch). This is something which I
am not sure of, especially after reading [5]. I am confused on whether
this ABI version is reserved for IFUNC, or it can be used for this
purpose.

When SHF_GNU_MBIND was added in the SHF_LOOS to SHF_HIOS range, it
should have required ELFOSABI_GNU since these flags are already in use
by other OSes. HPUX SHF_HP_TLS in fact has the same value. That
means no place in binutils should test SHF_GNU_MBIND without first
checking OSABI, and SHF_GNU_MBIND should not be set without also
setting OSABI. At least, that's the ideal, but the patch accepts
SHF_GNU_MBIND on ELFOSABI_NONE object files since gas didn't always
set OSABI. However, to reinforce the fact that SHF_GNU_MBIND isn't
proper without a non-zero OSABI, readelf will display the flag as
LOOS+0 if OSABI isn't set.
The clash with SHF_HP_TLS means that hppa64-linux either has that flag
on .tbss sections or supports GNU_MBIND, not both. (hppa64-linux
users, if there are any, may have noticed that GNU ld since 2017
mysteriously aligned their .tbss sections to a 4k boundary. That was
one consequence of SHF_HP_TLS being blindly interpreted as
SHF_GNU_MBIND.) Since it seems that binutils, gdb, gcc, glibc, and
the linux kernel don't care about SHF_HP_TLS I took that flag out of
.tbss for hppa64-linux.

The AArch64 linker option to turn on BTI (--force-bti) warns in case there are

This PR shows a fuzzed binary triggering a segfault via a bad
relocation in .debug_line. It turns out that unlike normal
relocations applied to a section, the linker applies those with
symbols from discarded sections via _bfd_clear_contents without
checking that the relocation is within the section bounds. The same
thing now happens when reading debug sections since commit
a4cd947aca, the PR23425 fix.

This patch series is a new binutils port for C-SKY processors, including support for both the V1 and V2 processor variants. V1 is derived from the MCore architecture while V2 is substantially different, with mixed 16- and 32-bit instructions, a larger register set, a different (but overlapping) ABI, etc. There is support for bare-metal ELF targets and Linux with both glibc and uClibc.
This code is being contributed jointly by C-SKY Microsystems and Mentor Graphics. C-SKY is responsible for the technical content and has proposed Lifang Xia and Yunhai Shang as port maintainers. (Note that C-SKY does have a corporate copyright assignment on file with the FSF.) Mentor Graphics' role has been cleaning up the code, adding documentation and additional test cases, etc, to address issues we anticipated reviewers would complain about.

elf32-xgate.c contains many functions that are only stubs and
elf32-xgate.h contains unused declarations. While this might be
reasonable for the initial commit of a port with subsequent work
fleshing out the stubs, xgate has only had two minor target specific
patches since the initial commit over six years ago. The rest of the
changes have been general maintenance work applied to all ELF targets,
and some of this work could have been avoided if the stubs hadn't been
there. So this patch removes all the stubs.
I've kept the functionality of the old elf32_xgate_add_symbol_hook,
implemented in elf32_xgate_backend_symbol_processing. Presumably,
that's to set the symbol st_target_internal flag for use in
elf32-m68hc1x.c:elf32_m68hc11_relocate_section.
The empty elf32_xgate_relocate_section meant that xgate had no linker.
Or at least, no linker relocation processing. Deleting the
elf_backend_relocate_section define means the target will now use the
generic linker reloc processing. How good that is will depend on the
accuracy of the reloc howtos..
I haven't updated the ld testsuite to xfail tests expected to fail
for generic elf targets.

.gnu.attributes entries from linker input files are merged to the
output file, the output having the union of compatible input
attributes. Incompatible attributes generally cause a linker error
and no output. However in some cases only a warning is emitted, and
one of the incompatible input attributes is passed on to the output.
PowerPC tends to emit warnings rather than errors, and the output
takes the first input attribute. For example, if we have two input
files with Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_FP, the first with a value signifying
"double-precision hard float, IBM long double", the second with a
value signifying "double-precision hard float, IEEE long double",
we'll get a warning about incompatible long double types and the
output will say "double-precision hard float, IBM long double".
The output attribute of course isn't correct. It would be correct to
specify "IBM and IEEE long double", but we don't have a way to
represent that currently. While it would be possible to extend the
encoding, there isn't much gain in doing so. A shared library
providing support for both long double types should link against
objects using either long double type without warning or error. That
is what you'd get if such a shared library had no Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_FP
attribute.
So this patch provides a way for the backend to omit .gnu.attributes
tags from the output.

Many ELF targets arrange to emit a number of section symbols in
.dynsym for use by dynamic relocations. This happens before the
dynamic relocations are output, and the need for those symbols
determined. In most cases they are not needed. A proper analysis of
the need for dynamic section symbols is target specific and tedious,
so this patch just excludes them in the obvious case when no
dynamic relocations are present.
The patch also runs the new pr23161 and pr23162 tests on more targets.

max-page-size only matters for demand paged executables or shared
libraries, and the ideal size is the largest value used by your
operating system. Values larger than necessary just waste file space
and memory. common-page-size also affects file and memory size,
trading a possible small increase in file size for a decrease in
memory size when the operating system is using a common-page-size
page. With a powerpc max-page-size of 64k and common-page-size of 4k
many executables will use no more memory pages when the system page
size is 4k than an executable linked with -z max-page-size=0x1000,
yet will still run on a system using 64k pages. However, when running
on a system using 64k pages relro protection will not be completely
effective.
Due to the relro problem, powerpc binutils has been using a default
common-page-size of 64k since 2014-12-18 (git commit 04c6a44c7),
leading to complaints about increased file and memory sizes. People
not using relro do have a valid reason to complain..
So this patch introduces an extra back-end value to use as the default
for common-page-size when generating relro executables, and enables
the support for powerpc. Non relro executables will now be generated
with a default common-page-size of 4k.

When processing a section that is a member of a group, the group
that contains it is looked up using a linear search. The resulting

This makes the elf_link_hash_entry weakdef field, currently used to
point from a weak symbol to a strong alias, a circular list so that
all aliases can be found from any of them. A new flag, is_weakalias,
distinguishes the weak symbol from a strong alias, and is used in all
places where we currently test u.weakdef != NULL.
With the original u.weakdef handling it was possible to have two or
more weak symbols pointing via u.weakdef to a strong definition.
Obviously that situation can't map to a circular list; One or more of
the weak symbols must point at another weak alias rather than the
strong definition. To handle that, I've added an accessor function to
return the strong definition.

Fix commit 70a38d42c5 ("New entry points for writing Linux NT_PRPSINFO
notes."), <https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2013-02/msg00023.html>,
and handle both variants of the 64-bit Linux core PRPSINFO note across
all targets.
The 64-bit Linux core PRPSINFO note matches the 64-bit kernel structure,
defined as follows:
(gdb) ptype struct elf_prpsinfo
type = struct elf_prpsinfo {
char pr_state;
char pr_sname;
char pr_zomb;
char pr_nice;
unsigned long pr_flag;
__kernel_uid_t pr_uid;
__kernel_gid_t pr_gid;
pid_t pr_pid;
pid_t pr_ppid;
pid_t pr_pgrp;
pid_t pr_sid;
char pr_fname[16];
char pr_psargs[80];
}
(gdb)
where the individual data types of most members are the same across all
64-bit Linux ports, with the exception of `__kernel_uid_t' and
`__kernel_gid_t'. These are defined in <asm-generic/posix_types.h> as
32-bit `unsigned int' by default, however overridden as 16-bit `unsigned
short' in port-specific <asm/posix_types.h> for the SuperH target.
The default is already handled, as from the commit referred. Add the
other variant then and provide a backend flag to switch between the two
cases possible, with the 32-bit one being the default and the 16-bit one
explicitly selected. Set the flag in the SuperH target backend. This
arrangement is analogous to how the 32-bit Linux core PRPSINFO note is
handled.

and commit b3ac9c7756 ("Put more info in NT_PRPSINFO Linux notes"),
<https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2013-02/msg00024.html>, and handle
both variants of the 32-bit Linux core PRPSINFO note across all targets.
The 32-bit Linux core PRPSINFO note matches the 32-bit kernel structure,
defined as follows:
(gdb) ptype struct elf_prpsinfo
type = struct elf_prpsinfo {
char pr_state;
char pr_sname;
char pr_zomb;
char pr_nice;
unsigned long pr_flag;
__kernel_uid_t pr_uid;
__kernel_gid_t pr_gid;
pid_t pr_pid;
pid_t pr_ppid;
pid_t pr_pgrp;
pid_t pr_sid;
char pr_fname[16];
char pr_psargs[80];
}
(gdb)
where the individual data types of most members are the same across all
32-bit Linux ports, with the exception of `__kernel_uid_t' and
`__kernel_gid_t'. These are defined in <asm-generic/posix_types.h> as
32-bit `unsigned int' by default, however overridden as 16-bit `unsigned
short' in port-specific <asm/posix_types.h> for a few targets, mostly
earlier ports of Linux, specifically: ARM, CRIS, FR-V, M32R, m68k,
MN10300/AM33, s390, SuperH, SPARC and i386.
The default is the same as the PowerPC variant already handled, as from
the commits referred. Make the special PowerPC case generic then,
removing the GDB part, and provide a backend flag to switch between the
two cases possible, with the 32-bit one being the default and the 16-bit
one explicitly selected. Set the flag in the target backends affected.

Currently, linker will define __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME symbols
only for orphaned sections.
However, during garbage collection, ELF linker marks all sections with
references to __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME symbols as used even
when section SECNAME isn't an orphaned section and linker won't define
__start_SECNAME nor __stop_SECNAME. And ELF linker stores the first
input section whose name matches __start_SECNAME or __stop_SECNAME in
u.undef.section for garbage collection. If these symbols are provided
in linker script, u.undef.section is set to the section where they will
defined by linker script, which leads to the incorrect output.
This patch changes linker to always define referenced __start_SECNAME and
__stop_SECNAME if the input section name is the same as the output section
name, which is always true for orphaned sections, and SECNAME is a C
identifier. Also __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME symbols are marked
as hidden by ELF linker so that __start_SECNAME and __stop_SECNAME symbols
for section SECNAME in different modules are unique. For garbage
collection, ELF linker stores the first matched input section in the
unused vtable field.

Correct a commit e5713223cb ("MIPS/BFD: For n64 hold the number of
internal relocs in `->reloc_count'") regression and change internal
relocation handling in the generic ELF BFD linker code such that, except
in the presence of R_SPARC_OLO10 relocations, a section's `reloc_count'
holds the number of internal rather than external relocations, making
the handling more consistent between GAS, which sets `->reloc_count'
with a call to `bfd_set_reloc', and LD, which sets `->reloc_count' as it
reads input sections.
The handling of dynamic relocations remains unchanged and they continue
holding the number of external relocations in `->reloc_count'; they are
also not converted to the internal form except in `elf_link_sort_relocs'
(which does not handle the general, i.e. non-n64-MIPS case of composed
relocations correctly as per the ELF gABI, though it does not seem to
matter for the targets we currently support).
The n64 MIPS backend is the only one with `int_rels_per_ext_rel' set to
non-one, and consequently the change is trivial for all the remaining
backends and targets.
