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.

README
README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
