This patch fixes a few linker crashes due to TLS code reaching an assert when it
shouldn't.
The first scenario is with weak TLS symbols that remain weak during linking. In
this case the mid-end would not have seen a TLS symbol and so wouldn't have
allocated the TLS section. We currently assert here and the linker crashes with
a not very useful message.
This patch changes this to return the value 0 for the TLS symbol in question
emulating what lld and gold and other BFD targets do. However because weak TLS
is implementation defined and we don't define any behavior for it I also emit a
warning to the user to inform them of such.
Secondly when a strong TLS reference is undefined. The linker crashes even after
it correctly reported that there is an undefined reference. This changes it so
that it gracefully exits and reports a useful error.

We currently use a padding NOP after a Thumb to Arm interworking veneer (BX pc).
The NOP is never executed but may result in a performance penalty on some cores.
For this reason this patch changes the NOPs after Thumb to Arm veneers into B .-2

This fixes a problem originally reported at
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-binutils-gdb/issues/173
If you have code linked at address zero, you can have a lui instruction
loading a value 0x800 which gets relaxed to a c.lui which is valid (c.lui 0x1
followed by addi -0x800). Relaxation can reduce the value below 0x800 at which
point the c.lui 0x0 is no longer valid. We can fix this by converting the
c.lui to a c.li which can load 0.

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.

This patch makes the elf64bpf emulation to use it's own linker script,
based on elf.sc. At the moment, the only change is that the BPF
executable doesn't define an entry symbol (BPF programs feature
several entry points scattered in several sections.)
This is a step towards the goal of generating proper ELF executables
that would be loaded by the kernel's libbpf. We are not there yet:
BPF "programs" should still be linked with -r.
This change removes a warning while linking executables, decreases the
number of unsupported tests in the target from 47 to 29, and increases
the number of expected passes from 104 to 145.
Regtested in x86_64 for all targets.
No regressions.

This patch supports using pcrel instructions in TLS code sequences. A
number of new relocations are needed, gas operand modifiers to
generate those relocations, and new TLS optimisation. For
optimisation it turns out that the new pcrel GD and LD sequences can
be distinguished from the non-pcrel GD and LD sequences by there being
different relocations on the new sequence. The final "add ra,rb,13"
on IE sequences similarly needs a new relocation, or as I chose, a
modification of R_PPC64_TLS. On pcrel IE code, the R_PPC64_TLS points
one byte into the "add" instruction rather than being on the
instruction boundary.

It is possible to create shared libraries on PowerPC using
-ftls-model=inital-exec or -ftls-model=local-exec. The first is half
reasonable, getting you a shared library that can't be dlopen'd but
otherwise is reasonable. The second is quite bad. Not only do you
lose being able to dlopen, the library also has dynamic text
relocations. Worse, the TPREL16_LO, TPREL16_HA and other TPREL16
dynamic relocs emitted were wrong, resulting in wrong values being
applied by ld.so.
Using the first TLS section symbol in dynamic relocations for local
TLS symbols doesn't work. It's wrong because TLS symbols used by TLS
relocs have values relative to the TLS segment, whereas the TLS
section symbols are addresses. This patch instead uses a symbol index
of zero which is used elsewhere by PowerPC on dynamic TLS relocs.
It's not strictly ABI compliant to use a non-TLS symbol with TLS
relocs but symbol index zero can be interpreted as "no symbol". Not
using the first TLS section symbol means it doesn't need to be dynamic.
The patch also fixes a further problem with PowerPC32 dynamic TPREL16*
relocs, which shouldn't have the symbol value in the addend as we do
for non-TLS symbols.

Recently a patch was submitted for a Xen Project test harness binary to
override the compiler specified @object to @func (see [1]). In a reply I
suggested we shouldn't make ourselves dependent on currently unspecified
behavior of gas here: It accumulates all requests, and then
bfd/elf.c:swap_out_syms(), in an apparently ad hoc manner, prioritizes
certain flags over others.
Make the behavior predictable: Generally the last .type is what counts.
Exceptions are directives which set multiple bits (TLS, IFUNC, and
UNIQUE): Subsequent directives requesting just the more generic bit
(i.e. FUNC following IFUNC) won't clear the more specific one. Warn
about incompatible changes, except from/to STT_NOTYPE.
Also add a new target hook, which hppa wants to use right away afaict.
In the course of adding the warning I ran into two ld testsuite

While the skiboot linker script bears some culpability in this PR,
it's also true that the GOT indirect to GOT relative optimisation for
16-bit offsets isn't safe. At least, it isn't safe to remove the GOT
entry based on distance between the GOT pointer and symbol calculated
from the preliminary layout. So this patch removes that optimisation,
and reduces the range allowed for 32-bit and 34-bit offsets.

The Cortex-A53 erratum currently has two ways it can resolve the erratum when
using the flag --fix-cortex-a53-843419:
1) If the address is within the range of an ADR instruction it rewrites the ADRP
into an ADR, and those doesn't need the use of a veneer.
2) If the address is not within range, it adds a branch to a veneer which will
execute the final bit of the erratum workaround and branch back to the call
site.
When we do this we always generate the veneers and we always align the size of
the text section to 4KB. This is because we only know which workaround we can
use after all linking has finished and all addresses are known. This means even
though the veneers are not used, we still generate the section and we still
change the size of the input section.
This is problematic for small memory devices as this would require the user to
take about a ~4KB hit in memory even though it's not even used.
Since there's no real way to restart the linking process from the final write
phase this patch solves the issue by allowing the user more control over which
erratum workaround gets used.
Concretely this changes the option --fix-cortex-a53-843419 to take optional
arguments --fix-cortex-a53-843419[=full|adr|adrp]
- full (default): Use both ADRP and ADR workaround. This is equivalent to not
specifying any options and is the default behavior before this
patch.
- adr: Only use the ADR workaround, this will not cause any increase in binary
size but linking will fail if the referenced address is out of range of
an ADR instruction.
- adrp: Use only the ADRP workaround, this will never rewrite your ADRP.
In the cases where the user knows how big their binaries are the `adr` option
would prevent the unneeded overhead.

The range check done to transform an absolute call/jump to a pc-relative one is
off-by-one, and that causes this shortening optimization to be missed if the
branch target is right at the range boundary.
In the non-shrinkable case, the range is what is mentioned in the ISA - -4094
bytes in the backward direction, and 4096 bytes in the positive direction.
In the shrinkable case, the forward jump range increases by two bytes (deleted
because of the shortening from call/jmp to rcall/rjmp), and therefore, the
range is -4094 in the reverse, and 4098 in the positive direction.
Fix the ranges for !shrinkable and shrinkable cases, and add a test caes to
ensure jumps to max forward and backward ranges get relaxed to rjmp.
The current code to compute relative distance in the wrap around case does not
handle the edge case of the target (after adjusting for implicit PC increment)
being exactly half of the wrap around distance. This patch fixes that and adds a
testcase.
The range for a forward relative jump call is 4096 bytes ((2 * 2047) + (2 bytes
for the implicit PC increment)). If the target of the jump is at a distance of
4098 bytes, it is out of range for a forward jump - however, a backward jump can
still reach that address if pmem-wrap-around is 8192.
Assume address 0 has rjmp to address 4098. With a wrap around of 8192 and
*without* adjusting for the implicit PC increment of 2 bytes, rjmp .-4096 will
jump to address 4096 (wrap around at 8192 and decreasing addresses from then
on). Adjusting 2 bytes for the implicit PC increment, the actual target is 4098.
avr_relative_distance_considering_wrap_around though, does the wrap around only
if the passed in distance is less than half of the wrap around distance. In this
case, it is exactly equal to half (original distance 4098, adjusted distance of
4096 and wraparound of 8192), and the bypassed wrap around causes the reloc
overflow error.
Fix by wrapping around even if adjusted distance is equal to half of wrap around
distance.
On IRIX 5, every global symbol that is not explicitly labelled as
being a function is assumed to be an object. There is no reason
why IRIX behaviour should extend to all MIPS targets, so limit this
to only IRIX targets.

m32c_md_end attempted to pad out a code section with nops, but this
was just plain wrong in many ways:
- The padding didn't happen at all if the last section emitted wasn't
a code section.
- The padding went to the wrong place if subsections were used, and
the last subseg used wasn't the highest numbered subseg.
- Padding wasn't added to all code sections.
- If the last section was empty, it was padded to 4 bytes.
- The padding didn't go to a 4-byte alignment boundary, instead it
effectively made the last instruction 4 bytes in size.
- The padding didn't take into account that code sections may have
contents other than machine instructions.
So, rip it out and handle nop padding properly, also fixing .align
.balign/.p2align in the middle of code.

This patch restricts the section names matched in coff_section_type,
a function that translates section names to symbol type, and arranges
to translate section flags to symbol type before looking at names.
The latter change resulted in various test failures due to improper
section flags being used in tests, and by the plugin support, so fix
that too.
The new test fails on many ELF targets that lack .init/fini_array
in their scripts. I've just xfailed those. pru-elf oddly defines
__init_array_begin rather than __init_array_start. I've left that
target as a FAIL, and pj-elf too which reports an error for undefined
