Eric Botcazou bb363086e7 Fix PR ld/22727 (TLS breakage in PIC/PIE mode on SPARC).
There are actually 2 different bugs:
 1. TLS transition is broken in PIE mode.
 2. TLS is broken in PIC/PIE mode when the __tls_get_addr symbol
    is versioned  (as is the case on Linux and Solaris at least).

The 1st bug is fixed by reverting the problematic change for now
(note that the associated test doesn't pass on SPARC because of another
issue so there is  no formal regression in the testsuite). The 2nd bug
is fixed by changing the  call to _bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol
on __tls_get_addr into a mere lookup in _bfd_sparc_elf_check_relocs.

bfd/
	* elfxx-sparc.c (_bfd_sparc_elf_check_relocs) <R_SPARC_TLS_GD_CALL>:
	Do a mere lookup of the __tls_get_addr symbol instead of adding it.

	Revert

		README for LD

This is the GNU linker.  It is distributed with other "binary
utilities" which should be in ../binutils.  See ../binutils/README for
more general notes, including where to send bug reports.

There are many features of the linker:

* The linker uses a Binary File Descriptor library (../bfd)
  that it uses to read and write object files.  This helps
  insulate the linker itself from the format of object files.

* The linker supports a number of different object file
  formats.  It can even handle multiple formats at once:
  Read two input formats and write a third.

* The linker can be configured for cross-linking.

* The linker supports a control language.

* There is a user manual (ld.texinfo), as well as the
  beginnings of an internals manual (ldint.texinfo).

Installation
============

See ../binutils/README.

If you want to make a cross-linker, you may want to specify
a different search path of -lfoo libraries than the default.
You can do this by setting the LIB_PATH variable in ./Makefile
or using the --with-lib-path configure switch.

To build just the linker, make the target all-ld from the top level
directory (one directory above this one).

Porting to a new target
=======================

See the ldint.texinfo manual.

Reporting bugs etc
===========================

See ../binutils/README.

Known problems
==============

The Solaris linker normally exports all dynamic symbols from an
executable.  The GNU linker does not do this by default.  This is
because the GNU linker tries to present the same interface for all
similar targets (in this case, all native ELF targets).  This does not
matter for normal programs, but it can make a difference for programs
which try to dlopen an executable, such as PERL or Tcl.  You can make
the GNU linker export all dynamic symbols with the -E or
--export-dynamic command line option.

HP/UX 9.01 has a shell bug that causes the linker scripts to be
generated incorrectly.  The symptom of this appears to be "fatal error
- scanner input buffer overflow" error messages.  There are various
workarounds to this:
  * Build and install bash, and build with "make SHELL=bash".
  * Update to a version of HP/UX with a working shell (e.g., 9.05).
  * Replace "(. ${srcdir}/scripttempl/${SCRIPT_NAME}.sc)" in
    genscripts.sh with "sh ${srcdir}..." (no parens) and make sure the
    emulparams script used exports any shell variables it sets.
