I think it is past time to remove CR16C support. CR16C was added in
2004, and only for ld. gas and binutils support is lacking, and there
have been no commits to bfd/elf32-cr16c.c other than warning fixes or
global maintainers making changes to all targets. I see no maintainer
listed for CR16C, and no commits from anyone at NSC supporting the
target. Furthermore, at the time the CR16 support was added in 2007,
config.sub was changed upstream to no longer recognise cr16c as a
valid cpu. That means the CR16C ld support is only available as a
secondary target by configuring with, for example,
--enable-targets=all or --enable-targets=cr16c-unknown-elf. No
testing of the CR16C target is possible.

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.

Add a new option to disable the listing of discarded sections
in map file output. The use case stems from a large application

This is part of the patch series to add support for BTI and
PAC in AArch64 linker.
1) This patch adds new definitions of PAC enabled PLTs
and both BTI and PAC enabled PLTs.
2) It also defines the new dynamic tag DT_AARCH64_PAC_PLT
for the PAC enabled PLTs.
3) This patch adds a new ld command line option: --pac-plt.
In the presence of this option, the linker uses the PAC
enabled PLTs and marks with DT_AARCH64_PAC_PLT.
4) In case both BTI and PAC are enabled the linker should
pick PLTs enabled with both and also use dynamic tags for both.
All these are made according to the new AArch64 ELF ABI

This is part of the patch series to add support for BTI and
PAC in AArch64 linker.
1) This patch adds a new ld command line option: --force-bti.
In the presence of this option, the linker enables BTI with the
GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_BTI feature. This gives out warning
in case of missing gnu notes for BTI in inputs.
2) It also defines a new set of BTI enabled PLTs. These are used either
when all the inputs are marked with GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_BTI
or when the new --force-bti option is used. This required adding new
fields in elf_aarch64_link_hash_table so that we could make the PLT
related information more generic.
3) It also defines a dynamic tag DT_AARCH64_BTI_PLT. The linker uses
this whenever it picks BTI enabled PLTs.

This patch implements the following:
1) This extends in the gnu property support in the linker for
AArch64 by defining backend hooks for elf_backend_setup_gnu_properties,
elf_backend_merge_gnu_properties and elf_backend_parse_gnu_properties.
2) It defines AArch64 specific GNU property
GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_AND and 2 bit for BTI and PAC in it.
3) It also adds support in readelf.c to read and print these new
GNU properties in AArch64.

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.

Binutils documentation uses a mix of spelling for the compound word
"command-line X". According to [1]:
"Sometimes compound words are written separately (nail polish),
sometimes with a hyphen (short-sighted) and sometimes as one word
(eyelashes). Often new compounds are written as two separate words and,
as they become more familiar, they are either connected with a hyphen
(-) or made into one word."
I think command-line X is common enough in our industry that the two
workds command and line should be connected. Since command-line is more
common than commandline, I propose to update binutils documentation to
consistently use "command-line" when this is used as an adjective to a
noun (eg. command-line argument, command-line switch, command-line
option and command-line flag). I've left occurences of "the command
line" as is. I've also left gdb, sim and readline alone and have only
touched public documentation (texi and NEWS files).

This patch adds --enable-separate-code to ld configure to turn on
-z separate-code by default and enables it by default for Linux/x86.
This avoids mixing code pages with data to improve cache performance
as well as security.
To reduce x86-64 executable and shared object sizes, the maximum page
size is reduced from 2MB to 4KB when -z separate-code is turned on by
default. Note: -z max-page-size= can be used to set the maximum page
size.
We compared SPEC CPU 2017 performance before and after this change on
Skylake server. There are no any significant performance changes.
Everything is mostly below +/-1%.

Currently we have no obvious way to revert the action of the "-z defs"
command line option. The "--unresolved-symbols=ignore-in-object-files"
does pretty much what is needed, but it is non-obvious and it also
touches the setting for reporting unresolved symbol references from
shared libraries. So I am proposing adding a "-z undefs" option to be
the inverse of "-z defs". (I thought that "-z nodefs" might be
confusing since it implies banning all definitions, rather than
allowing them).
In addition the description of the "-z defs" option in the linker
documentation is misleading in one place, where it says:
'defs'
Disallows undefined symbols in object files. Undefined
symbols in shared libraries are still allowed.
whereas later on it gets it right:
'-z defs'
Report unresolved symbol references from regular object files.
This is done even if the linker is creating a non-symbolic shared
library. The switch '--[no-]allow-shlib-undefined' controls the
behaviour for reporting unresolved references found in shared
libraries being linked in.

To support IBT in Intel Control-flow Enforcement Technology (CET)
instructions:
https://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/managed/4d/2a/control-flow-enforcement-technology-preview.pdf
#define GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_AND 0xc0000002
#define GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_IBT (1U << 0)
are added to GNU program properties to indicate that all executable
sections are compatible with IBT when ENDBR instruction starts each
valid target where an indirect branch instruction can land.
GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_IBT is set on output only if it is set on
all relocatable inputs.
The followings changes are made to the Procedure Linkage Table (PLT):
1. For 64-bit x86-64, PLT is changed to
PLT0: push GOT[1]
bnd jmp *GOT[2]
nop
...
PLTn: endbr64
push namen_reloc_index
bnd jmp PLT0
together with the second PLT section:
PLTn: endbr64
bnd jmp *GOT[namen_index]
nop
BND prefix is also added so that IBT-enabled PLT is compatible with MPX.
2. For 32-bit x86-64 (x32) and i386, PLT is changed to
PLT0: push GOT[1]
jmp *GOT[2]
nop
...
PLTn: endbr64 # endbr32 for i386.
push namen_reloc_index
jmp PLT0
together with the second PLT section:
PLTn: endbr64 # endbr32 for i386.
jmp *GOT[namen_index]
nop
BND prefix isn't used since MPX isn't supported on x32 and BND registers
aren't used in parameter passing on i386.
GOT is an array of addresses. Initially, GOT[namen_index] is filled
with the address of the ENDBR instruction of the corresponding entry
in the first PLT section. The function, namen, is called via the
ENDBR instruction in the second PLT entry. GOT[namen_index] is updated
to the actual address of the function, namen, at run-time.
2 linker command line options are added:
1. -z ibtplt: Generate IBT-enabled PLT.
2. -z ibt: Generate GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_IBT in GNU program
properties as well as IBT-enabled PLT.

This commit adds a new linker feature: the ability to resolve section
groups as part of a relocatable link.
Currently section groups are automatically resolved when performing a
final link, and are carried through when performing a relocatable link.
By carried through this means that one copy of each section group (from
all the copies that might be found in all the input files) is placed
into the output file. Sections that are part of a section group will
not match input section specifiers within a linker script and are
forcibly kept as separate sections.
There is a slight resemblance between section groups and common
section. Like section groups, common sections are carried through when
performing a relocatable link, and resolved (allocated actual space)
only at final link time.
However, with common sections there is an ability to force the linker to
allocate space for the common sections when performing a relocatable
link, there's currently no such ability for section groups.
This commit adds such a mechanism. This new facility can be accessed in
two ways, first there's a command line switch --force-group-allocation,
second, there's a new linker script command FORCE_GROUP_ALLOCATION. If
one of these is used when performing a relocatable link then the linker
will resolve the section groups as though it were performing a final
link, the section group will be deleted, and the members of the group
will be placed like normal input sections. If there are multiple copies
of the group (from multiple input files) then only one copy of the group
members will be placed, the duplicate copies will be discarded.
Unlike common sections that have the --no-define-common command line
flag, and INHIBIT_COMMON_ALLOCATION linker script command there is no
way to prevent group resolution during a final link, this is because the
ELF gABI specifically prohibits the presence of SHT_GROUP sections in a
fully linked executable. However, the code as written should make
adding such a feature trivial, setting the new resolve_section_groups
flag to false during a final link should work as you'd expect.

Mark an ALLOC section, which should be placed in special memory area,
with SHF_GNU_MBIND. Its sh_info field indicates the special memory
type. GNU_MBIND section names start with ".mbind" so that they are
placed as orphan sections by linker. All input GNU_MBIND sections
with the same sh_type, sh_flags and sh_info are placed in one output
GNU_MBIND section. In executable and shared object, create a
GNU_MBIND segment for each GNU_MBIND section and its segment type is
PT_GNU_MBIND_LO plus the sh_info value. Each GNU_MBIND segment is
aligned at page boundary.
The assembler syntax:
.section .mbind.foo,"adx",%progbits
^ 0: Special memory type.
|
'd' for SHF_GNU_MBIND.
.section .mbind.foo,"adx",%progbits,0x1

Given a linker script fragment like this:
SECTIONS {
. = 0x1000;
.text : AT(0x100) { *(.text) }
.data : AT(0x200) { *(.data) }
.rodata : AT(0x300) { *(.rodata) }
}
and an input file containing sections, '.text', '.data.1', and
'.rodata', then we'd expect the linker to place '.text' and '.rodata' in
the obvious way, and the '.data.1' orphan section would be located after
the '.data' section (assuming similar section properties).
Further, I believe that the expectation would be that the LMA for the
orphan '.data.1' section would start from 0x200 (as there is no '.data'
content).
However, right now, the LMA for '.data.1' would be 0x101, following on
from the '.text' section, this is because the change in LMA for the
'.data' section is not noticed by the linker, if there's no content in
the '.data' section.
What can be even more confusing to a user (though the cause is obvious
once you understand what's going on) is that adding some content to
'.data' will cause the orphan '.data.1' to switch to an LMA based off of
0x200.
This commit changes the behaviour so that an empty section that is in
the default lma region, and sets its lma, will adjust the lma of the
default region, this change will then be reflected in following sections
within the default lma memory region.
There's a new test to cover this issue that passes on a range of
targets, however, some targets generate additional sections, or have
stricter memory region size requirements that make it harder to come
up with a generic pass pattern, that still tests the required
features. For now I've set the test to ignore these targets.
ld/ChangeLog:
* ldlang.c (lang_size_sections_1): Shortcut loop only after
tracking changes to the default regions LMA.
* testsuite/ld-elf/orphan-9.ld: Extend header comment.

When picking an lma_region for an orphan section we currently create a
new lang_output_section_statement_type and then populate this with the
orphan section.
The problem is that the lang_output_section_statement_type has a prev
pointer that links back to the previous output section. For non-orphan
output sections, that are created in linker script order, the prev
pointer will point to the output section that appears previous in linker
script order, as you'd probably expect.
The problem is that orphan sections are placed after processing the
linker script, and so, in the case of an output section created for an
orphan input section, the prev pointer actually points to the last
output section created.
This causes some unexpected behaviour when the orphan section is not
placed after the last non-orphan section that was created.
For example, consider this linker script:
MEMORY {
TEXT : ORIGIN = 0x200, LENGTH = 0x10
RODATA : ORIGIN = 0x400, LENGTH = 0x10
}
SECTIONS {
.text : {*(.text) } AT>TEXT
.data : AT(0x300) { *(.data) }
.rodata : { *(.rodata) } AT>RODATA
}
If we are processing an orphan section '.data.1' and decide to place
this after '.data', then the output section created will have a prev
pointer that references the '.rodata' output section. The result of
this is that '.data.1' will actually be assigned to the RODATA lma
region, which is probably not the expected behaviour.
The reason why '.data.1' is placed into the lma region of the '.rodata'
section is that lma region propagation is done at the time we create the
output section, based on the previous output section pointer, which is
really just a last-output-section-created pointer at that point in time,
though the prev point is fixed up later to reflect the true order of the
output sections.
The solution I propose in this commit is to move the propagation of lma
regions into a separate pass of the linker, rather than performing this
as part of the enter/exit of output sections during linker script
parsing.
During this later phase we have all of the output sections to hand, and
the prev/next points have been fixed up by this point to reflect the
actual placement ordering.
There's a new test to cover this issue that passes on a range of
targets, however, some targets generate additional sections, or have
stricter memory region size requirements that make it harder to come
up with a generic pass pattern, that still tests the required
features. For now I've set the test to ignore these targets.

If we are configuring for an arc/linux target, and --with-cpu=nps400 is

Currently the EXCLUDE_FILE linker script construct can only be used
within the input section list, and applied only to the section pattern
immediately following the EXCLUDE_FILE. For example:
*.o (EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .text .rodata)
In this case all sections matching '.text' are included from all files
matching '*.o' but not from the file 'a.o'. All sections matching
'.rodata' are also included from all files matching '*.o' (incluing from
'a.o').
If the user wants to restrict the inclusion of section '.rodata' so that
this too is not taken from the file 'a.o' then the above example must be
extended like this:
*.o (EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .text EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .rodata)
However, due to the internal grammar of the linker script language the
snippet 'EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .text' is parsed by a pattern called
'wildcard_spec'. The same 'wildcard_spec' pattern is also used to parse
the input file name snippet '*.o' in the above examples. As a result of
this pattern reuse within the linker script grammar then the following
is also a valid linker script construct:
EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) *.o (.text .rodata)
However, though the linker accepts this without complaint the
EXCLUDE_FILE part is silently ignored and has no effect.
This commit takes this last example and makes it a useful, valid,
construct. The last example now means to include sections '.text' and
'.rodata' from all files matching '*.o' except for the file 'a.o'.
If the list of input sections is long, and the user knows that the file
exclusion applies across the list then the second form might be a
clearer alternative to replicating the EXCLUDE_FILE construct.
I've added a set of tests for EXCLUDE_FILE to the linker, including
tests for the new functionality.
