Mon Oct 21 09:34:11 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at rtl.cygnus.com)
* coffcode.h (coff_compute_section_file_positions): make it pad
section size out if there are alignment restrictions so that the
image will be ok on a system where section positions are worked
out by accumulating sizes rather than from the section headers.
* targets.c (proto write_armap). Changed orl_count to unsigned.
* opncls.c (bfd_close_all_done). Added so that generative
programs like gas can close a bfd without causing bfd confusion.
* libbfd.h (changed becuase of protos)
* amdcoff.c: messed with the way that jmp displacements are
calcualated. This may not yet be totally correct.
* archive.c (coff_write_armap): rewrote the way that ranlibs are
written out.
* coffcode.h (fixup_symbol_value): now doesn't core dump if a non
abs symbol has no section (like a register symbol).
(coff_write_symbol) now zeros auxent before filling it up to help
with sensitive applications.
* libbfd.c (bfd_write_bigendian_4byte_int): added.
Wed Oct 16 22:58:45 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* bfd.c: Make sure we don't get a macro strerror().
* opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): If FASCIST_FDOPEN, use "r", not "r+".
* trad-core.c (trad_unix_core_file_failing_command): Suppress
attempt to recover command, ifdef NO_CORE_COMMAND.
* hosts/h-tahoe.h: Add FASCIST_FDOPEN and NO_CORE_COMMAND;
revamp HOST_*, etc.
* hosts/h-i386v.h: Use <utime.h>, not <sys/utime.h>, unlike POSIX.
Wed Oct 16 12:43:49 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
* archive.c (bsd_write_argmap): The size of the ranlib structures
should not include the size field itself.
* aoutx.h, libaout.h (NAME(aout, sizeof_headers)): Use
adata(abfd)->exec_bytes_size field instead of constant macro,
because aoutx.h compiles to a simple .o file shared by
all 32-bits a.out targets.
Wed Oct 16 11:11:05 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* configure.in: Allow i386-sco-sysv.
* bout.c: Remove unused i960_align; lint dummy core file handlers.
* cpu-h8300.c: lint.
* host-aout.c: New strategy. We use common code, include files,
and data structures to handle the file, but set a few parameters
from the host's config file (page size, text start addr, etc).
* libaout.h: Define HP BSD machine types.
* aoutf1.h: Handle reading a.outs with these types.
* trad-core.c: Pass the u.u_ar0 value as the negative of the
virtual-memory-address of the .reg section. We can't just make a
section for "all the regs and nothing else" because only GDB knows
exactly where the regs are (scattered around the upage and stack).
Clean up memory allocation. Remove big- and little-endian
vectors, replace with single vector; this only runs on the host,
in host byte order. Replace byteswap routines with aborts in case
anyone calls them.
* targets.c: There's only one trad_core_vec now.
* aoutf1.h (sunos_core_file_p): VMA of .reg* now needs to be 0.
Tue Oct 15 08:29:03 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* hosts/h-amix.h (free): Fix prototype.
* aoutx.h: Don't use NULL as an integer, for braindead systems
that declare it as (void *)0. (From Peter Schauer.)
Mon Oct 14 17:20:47 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
* opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): Add parentheses to avoid reported
problem with bad Ultrix system headers.
* aoutx.h (NAME(aout,set_section_contents)): Try to handle the
various kinds of alignments for the various kinds of
magic numbers.
Mon Oct 14 14:23:10 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* doc/Makefile: Don't assume . is on the path (from James Clark).
Fri Oct 11 22:45:14 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* Makefile.in: Avoid Sun Make VPATH bugs.
* targets.c: Declare trad_core vectors extern.
Fri Oct 11 13:03:02 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
* coffcode.h: Moved ALIGN macro to libbfd.h. Removed i960_align.
* libbfd.h: Moved ALIGN macro here.
* bout.c (b_out_callback): Replace i960_align by align_power.
* libaout.h (struct aoutdata): Added fields page_size,
segment_size and exec_bytes_size. These help generic code
(in aoutx.h and libaout.h) to figure out where to align
the various segments in a demand paged file.
* libaout.h (WRITE_HEADER): Use new (struct aoutdata) fields
to decide if the exec header counts in a_text (text segment size).
Also, assume D_PAGED flag is set; don't set it here.
* bout.c (b_out_callback): Add initialization of
adata fields page_size, segment_size, and exec_bytes_size.
* host-aout.c (NAME(host_aout, callback) and
NAME(host_aout,mkobject): Ditto.
* i386aout.c (aout386_callback) and new aout386_mkobject): Ditto.
* newos3.c (newsos3_callback) and new newsos_mkobject): Ditto.
* aoutf1.c (sunos4_callback) and new sunos_mkobject): Ditto.
* aoutx.h (NAME(aout,some_aout_object_p)): Don't subtract
EXEC_BYTES_SIZE from the a_test size; this is only appropriate
for some systems (mainly sunos), so do it in the callback instead.
Same routine: Add stuff to the THIS_IS_ONLY_DOCUMENTATION comment.
* aoutx.h (NAME(aout,set_section_contents): Change the way
filepos and size of sections are carried out to support
older styles of demand paged executables.
Fri Oct 11 12:33:36 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
* bfd-in.h: Added more macros to COFF_SWAP_TABLE.
* bfd.c: Added macros to enable gas to swap coff records.
* coffcode.h: Make the coff_swap_*_out routines return the number
of bytes swapped, and cleaned up their prototypes.
* configure.in: Added ebmon/coff support
* ecoff.c: Changed null definitions of coff_swap_*_out to conform
to new prototypes
* targets.c: Added new entry points for coff swapping
Fri Oct 11 03:01:52 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
Restructure configuration scheme for bfd, binutils, ld.
* include/sys/h-*.h: Move to bfd/hosts/h-*.h.
* configure.in: Revise to symlink sysdep.h to hosts/h-xxx.h.
Change some config names to match other dirs.
* *.c: Include bfd.h before sysdep.h, so ansidecl and PROTO()
get defined first.
* Makefile.in: Use -I. to get sysdep.h. Remove refs to
../include/sysdep.h.
* cpu-i960.c: Strncmp needed a length arg.
* ecoff.c: Don't ever call trad_unix_core_file_p from here.
* i386aout.c: Remove dead N_TXTOFF override.
* trad-core.c: Don't disable the whole file if SUN4_SYS.
* config/: Rename some config files to match up h-*.h names.
Remove all the HOST_SYS definitions from the config files.
* hosts/h-amix.h, h-i386v.h: Define POSIX_UTIME, not USG.
* hosts/h-hp9000.h: Remove USG comment.
* hosts/h-rs6000.h: Include <stdlib.h> for malloc.
* hosts/h-news.h, h-sparc-64.h: New config files that had
previously been kludged in the <sysdep.h> file.
Thu Oct 10 17:54:08 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* config/*: trad-core support is HOST dependent, not target
dependent. Target config files only set DEFAULT_VECTOR and/or
other vector elements. Exception: when host-aout.c is in use,
in which case we're forced to assume we're native (hp, vax,
tahoe). Rename XDEPFILES to HDEPFILES.
* Makefile.in: Rename XDEPFILES.
* config/h-sun*: Don't force static linking.
* trad-core.c: Document how to use it nowadays.
* i386aout.c, newsos3.c: Clean up.
* i386coff.c: Allow 386 coff files to be used as core files too
(for reading core files from embedded systems).
Tue Oct 8 15:30:39 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* Add i386aout.c for a.out support on the i386.
Tue Oct 8 12:18:54 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygnus.com)
* reloc.c, section.c, syms.c, targets.c: correct info-node
structure in *doc* comments.
doc/Makefile: stop hiding complaints from makeinfo.
Sun Oct 6 19:10:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* aoutx.h (...some_aout_object_p): Take a third parameter,
the internal_exec struct, and avoid ever looking at an
external_exec. All callers changed to read the entire
external_exec struct, swap and check its magic number,
swap in the whole structure, and pass the swapped-in version to
some_aout_object_p.
* bout.c: Bring into modern era. Use single _object_p routine
for big- aand little-endian. Provide internal and external
exec header structs. Use separate swap-in and swap-out routines.
* libaout.h: Move struct internal_exec from ../include/aout64.h
to here. Add obj_symbol_entry_size to struct aoutdata.
* aoutx.h (...some_aout_object_p): Set obj_symbol_entry_size.
* ../include/aout64.h: Change EXTERNAL_LIST_SIZE to
EXTERNAL_NLIST_SIZE. Callers changed.
Fri Oct 4 18:18:46 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* bfd.c: Remove strerror() to libiberty.
* elf.c: Remove elf_set_section_contents, use generic one. Lint.
* libbfd-in.h, libbfd.c: Add bfd_generic_set_section_contents.
* libbfd.c (bfd_generic_{get,set}_section_contents): Check that
last byte of transfer, not first byte, is within the section.
* host-aout.c: Remove `BSD' archive support. Lint.
* archures.c: Rename `struct bfd_arch_info_struct' to `struct
bfd_arch_info'. Rename `typedef bfd_arch_info_struct_type' to
`bfd_arch_info_type'. All uses changed.
* reloc.c: Rename `bfd_reloc_status_enum_type' to
`bfd_reloc_status_type'. Rename `bfd_reloc_code_enum_real_type'
to `bfd_reloc_code_real_type'. (This seems to be a misnomer,
it needs a better name.) All uses changed.
* targets.c: Rename `enum target_flavour_enum' to `enum
target_flavour', and remove the `_enum' from all of the enum
values themselves. All uses changed.
* configure.in, config/h-i386mach: i386 mach host.
* config/t-i386-aout: Use host-aout.c.
* trad-core.c: Give it its own xvec's to make it independent
of other file formats.
* ecoff.c, host-aout.c: Remove refs to trad-core.
* config/t-dec3100, t-hp300bsd, t-tahoe, t-vax: Define TRAD_CORE.
* targets.c: #ifdef TRAD_CORE, include it in the vector.
Fri Oct 4 17:38:03 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
* reloc.c: Extended NEWHOWTO macro
* ieee.c: Changed the way 8bit pcrel is done
* cpu-h8300.c: got the registers in the right order
Thu Oct 3 19:39:55 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* bfd-in.h: enum boolean => enum bfd_boolean for SVR4. Gumby's
prediction is vindicated!
* bfd-in.h, libbfd-in.h, doc/Makefile, doc/tolibbfd, doc/intobfd:
Remove refs to howto.c, since Steve forgot.
Thu Oct 3 07:49:21 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
* elf.c: took the abort out of set_arch_mach so that objdump -i will
still work. Now allows any architecture/machine to be set.
Wed Oct 2 13:50:35 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
* howto.c deleted and moved code to reloc.c
* libbfd.h, libbfd-in.h removed $id stuff for real
* cpu-h8300.c Made it match various different spellings of h8300.
* archures.c: Took out the first char filter which made it only
look for a cpu/arch match when the first chars of supplied and
tested names were the same.
* targets.c removed oasys stuff, pending someone to fix the bugs
in it.
Tue Oct 1 12:29:44 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* Makefile.in, configure.in, targets.c, elf.c: Add preliminary
ELF support good enough for GDB.
* configure.in, config/h-amix, config/t-m68k-elf: Handle
m68k-cbm-svr4 host and target.
* config/t-m68k-coff, t-m88k-coff, t-m88k-aout: Make files nonempty
so `diff' and `patch' can cope.
Tue Oct 1 11:24:31 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
* archures.c: removed texinfo error
* init.c: added texinfo hooks, and removed initialization error
message.
* libcoff-in.h, libbfd-in.h removed $id field so cvs can merge
without complaints.
Tue Oct 1 05:02:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* cpu-i960.c: Avoid numerical count of initializers.
Vax Ultrix changes from David Taylor <taylor@think.com>:
* host-aout.c: Make little-endian vector really little-endian.
* configure.in: Separate vax and tahoe cases, handle ultrix.
* config/t-vax: Add trad-core.o.
* config/h-vaxult: New host system.
Mon Sep 30 15:13:46 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
* bfd-in.h VERSION, change version number to 0.18, this makes a
gap, but now is the same as the linker version number.
* cpu-a29k.c, cpu-i386.c, cpu-m68k.c, cpu-mips.c, cpu-vax.c,
cpu-h8300.c, cpu-i960.c, cpu-m88k.c, cpu-sparc.c: added. These
files will eventually contain processor specific bits for bfd,
like strange relocation information and dis/assembly. So far only
the H8 has been even partially done. This work also ties in with
the change in handling architectures.
* amdcoff.c: (a29k_reloc) fix error message.
* aout-f1.h: (choose_reloc_size) now calls bfd_get_arch to
discover the architecture of the bfd. (sunos4_callback) calls the
function bfd_set_arch_mach rather than stuffing stuff directly
into the bfd. (sunos4_write_object_contents), changed names of
accessor functions.
* aoutx.h: (set_arch_mach) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach to
setup the environment.
* archive.c: (bfd_slurp_coff_armap) coff archives always have the
headers in big endian format, regardless of the endianess of the
host or target.
* archures.c: totally changed. Now an architecture is represented
with a pointer to an info structure rather than an enumerated type
and a long. The old info is available as two elements in the
structure. Future enhancements to architecure support will
involve pointers to methods being placed into the info structure.
* bfd.c: changed the definition of the bfd structure for the new
architecture stuff.
* bout.c: (b_out_set_arch_mach) changed to use the new
architecture mechanism.
* coffcode.h: (coff_set_arch_mach, coff_set_flags) changed to use
the new architecture mechanism.
* configure.in: added h8 stuff.
* ieee.c: too many changes to note. Now ieee files written with
bfd gas and ld can be read by gld and ieee only linkers and
simulators.
* libbfd.c, libbfd.h: changed prototype of bfd_write.
* newsos3.c: (newos3_callback) now calls bfd_set_arch_mach rather
than fixing the structure directly.
* oasys.c: (oasys_object_p) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach rather
than fixing the structure directly.
* opncls.c: (new_bfd) makes sure that bfd_init has been called
before opening a bfd.
* srec.c: (srec_set_arch_mach) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach
rather than fixing the structure directly.
* targets.c: (target_vector) now by defining SELECT_VECS (perhaps
in the t/hmake file) a user can select which backends they want
linked with bfd without changing the source.
* init.c: new, looks after initializing modules.
* howto.c: for future use, will allow an application to work out
what cookie to use as a handle on a relcoatio howto.
Mon Sep 30 13:31:15 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* srec.c: Better error checking, partly from Peter Schauer.
(srec_object_p): Avoid assuming any file that starts with 'S' is
an S-record file! (Check for 3 uppercase-hex digits after it.)
(ISHEX): Define new macro for checking supposedly hex characters.
(pass_over): Treat as EOF any S-record line that:
* doesn't have hex in either size character
* produces a size larger than 0x7F
* has an unrecognized type number
Thu Sep 26 15:27:29 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
* aoutf1.h, aoutx.h, bout.c, coffcode.h, host-aout.c, oasys.c,
opncls.c: Lint (saber actually).
Thu Sep 26 11:24:24 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
* libaout.h (WRITE_HEADERS): Set header's a_text field always.
* newsos3.c: Fixed two types: newos3 -> newsos3.
* reloc.c (bfd_perform_relocation): Fix pc-relative relocation
to use correct segment.
Mon Sep 23 18:24:34 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
* aoutx.h (print_symbol): Handle missing symbol->name.
Fri Sep 20 12:26:01 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygnus.com)
* aoutf1.h (swapcore_sparc): Change name of USRSTACK, fix comment
at top of routine.
Tue Sep 17 17:23:49 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygnus.com)
* oasys.c, configure.in, config/h-irix3, config/t-irix3:
add sgi/irix support.
Thu Sep 12 14:29:09 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
Changes for the AMD 29000 Ultracomputer port from David Wood.
(wood@nyu.edu).
* opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): Handle NO_FCNTL.
* Makefile.in: Make subdirs work by using $(INCDIR) in the
crude dependencies.
* coffcode.h (coff_real_object_p): Pass information about the
current file's coff symbol format to BFD via the coff_data struct.
(coff_find_nearest_line): obj_icof => coff_data.
(coff_swap_sym_{in,out}): Check that SYMNMLEN == E_SYMNMLEN.
(coff_swap_aux_{in,out}): Check that FILNMLEN == E_FILNMLEN
and DIMNUM == E_DIMNUM.
* configure.in: Handle a29k-*-* hosts, and targets
a29k-*-coff, a29k-*-aout, and a29k-*-sym1.
* libcoff-in.h: Add local_n_btmask, local_n_btshft,
local_n_tmask, local_n_tshift, local_symesz, local_auxesz,
local_linesz to `coff_data' (tdata) struct.
(coff_data, coff_data_type, coff_tdata): Rename struct icofdata.
* config/h-ultra3: Handle a29k-*-* hosts as Ultracomputers.
Thu Sep 12 14:07:22 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)
* Makefile.in: $(MAKE) for make, $(docdir) for doc
* doc/Makefile: redundant dependencies for Sun-make VPATH bug
Tue Sep 10 20:34:12 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
* aoutf1.h (sunos4_core_file_p): Release the right storage in
error case.
(sunos4_core_file_matches_executable_p): Fix header comparison.
* aoutx.h: Avoid shifts of 32 bits, undefined in C. Lint.
* bout.c, icoff.c, ieee.c, libbfd.c, oasys.c: gcc -O -W lint.

abfd->direction and complain if erroneous.
* Makefile.in: Add crude dependencies.
Tue Sep 3 13:46:19 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* config/* aoutx.h configure* shortened all the h/tmake-xxxx
to h/t-xxxx files so that everything will work on System V.
Fri Aug 23 13:51:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
* aoutx.h: Add information on host-aout.c and how to configure
to use it, to the manual.
* configure.in: Tix typo.
* ecoff.c: If compiling for DEC3100, use trad_unix core files,
else dummy out the core file support.

Thu Aug 22 22:20:19 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygint.cygnus.com)
* aoutx.h, coffcode.h: saberized.
Thu Aug 22 11:27:06 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)
* bfd.texinfo: some cleanup, reincorporated more intro matter from
bfd.doc
bfd.c, targets.c: minor rewording of doc segments
Wed Aug 21 19:13:22 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
* trad-core.c (trad_unix_core_file_p): Use HOST_TEXT_START_ADDR,
etc, rather than TEXT_START_ADDR.
* host-aout.c: Remove #if 0 around whole thing.
Update to modern (32/64-bit) a.out naming conventions.
Include a large chunk of ../include/a.out.gnu.h to get macros that
are not defined by the system include files.
(host_aout_{32,64}_write_object_contents): Use the WRITE_HEADERS
macro used by the other a.out implementations.
* Makefile.in: Give dependencies to OPTIONAL_BACKENDS.
Wed Aug 21 14:33:06 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)
* Makefile.in: use targets "bfd.dvi" and "bfd.ps" instead of
texdoc and psdoc; make these depend on generated .texi's
* scanit, (new) unPROTO: turn PROTO macros into ANSI declarations in
doc
* bfd.c, reloc.c, syms.c: minor spelling/wording fixes in doc
portions
* Makefile.in, awkscan-ip, awkscan-p, intobfd,
libbfd.h, libcoff.h, tolibcoff; new bfd-in.h, libbfd-in.h,
libcoff-in.h: (a) use separate files for invariant parts of bfd.h,
libbfd.h, and libcoff.h; (b) in generated parts of same, use less
obtrusive marks indicating .c origins.
* bfd.texinfo: generalize most references to linker
Tue Aug 20 15:18:02 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)
* Makefile.in: include core.p in PROTOS (building better bfd.h)
* archures.c: remove empty foo() definition (crept in at vn1.9)
Mon Aug 19 13:48:22 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)

* coffcode.h: fixed bug where string table size wasn't being swapped.
Thu Aug 1 16:35:28 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* section.c: added SEC_CONSTRUCTOR_TEXT|DATA|BSS flags
* syms.c: added BSF_CONSTRUCTOR, BSF_WARNING and BSF_INDIRECT

translate_to_native_sym_flags produce the above flags.
Wed Jul 31 09:53:52 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
* all files: update copyright notices for GPL version 2.
Install header comments and attribute most modules to their
authors. BFD's name is now officially "Binary File Descriptor",
so remove any conflicting pejoratives.
archures.h: Consists solely of comments; remove it.
Fri Jul 26 18:11:34 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* Makefile.in, bfd.c: Made it compile again.

Thu Jul 4 09:53:16 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* Everything: created some new files, core.c format.c, reloc.c,
section.c and syms.c to split the functionality a bit better.
Cleaned up the rest of the files a bit, and added some
documentation.
Mon Jul 1 13:29:47 1991 David Wood (wood at david.ultra.nya.edu)
* opncls.c, ../include/sys/h-sun3.h ../include/sys/h-sun4.h: fcntl
really takes 3 arguments, patched code and ammended prototypes.
Fri Jun 14 13:19:40 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* ../include/bfd.h (struct bfd_target): Added new field
"align_power_min" which contains the minimum alignment for a
section. This is used in coff_new_section_hook. The field
insertion necessitates an update of all backends..
* aoutf1.h jump table field inserted
* archive.c(snarf_ar_hdr)(bfd_slurp_coff_armap) can now parse dgux style extended
filenames too.
* bout.c(b_out_squirt_out_relocs) fix to assertion tests. Jump
table field inserted.
* coffcode.h(just about everything) Now patches up symbol tables
using a different mechanism. The Intel major bug has been fixed,
and the linker can self host on the Aviion and be debugged with
gdb.
* ecoff.c: new include and jump table patch, i386coff.c: new
include and jump table patch, icoff.c: new include and jump table
patch, ieee.c: can now read archives containing ieee modules.,
libcoff.h: added (combined_entry_type), libieee.h: uped max
sections to 20, m68kcoff.c: new include and jump table patch,
m88kbcs.c: new include and jump table patch, oasys.c: various bugs
fixed. opncls.c: added bfd_alloc_grow and bfd_alloc_finish.
srec.c: jump table patch. trad-code.c fixed #IF typeo
Fri Jun 7 12:35:46 1991 Sean Fagan (sef at cygint.cygnus.com)
* coffcode.h (coff_swap_aux_in): added else case to deal with
filenames less than 9 characters.
Thu Jun 6 18:27:38 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* ../include/oasys.h oasys.c (oasys_archive_p): fixed so it works
* srec.c: now allows any number of sections to be created in a
file. Outputs addresses of the right length.
Thu May 30 15:30:10 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* bfd.c (bfd_check_format): Fixed problem where when a defaulted
target didn't match, the format got set to the attempted match,
breaking a future test.
*../include/i386coff.h : fixed typo in type field with size
* i386coff.c icoff.c m88k-bcs.c ecoff.c ../include/bfd.h : Added
support in the jump table for the swapping routines exported to
gdb. Now gdb works with the 386.
Tue May 28 17:21:43 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
* Merge in changes from gdb-3.95 release.
Makefile.in: Allow hmake and tmake files to add OFILES.
aoutf1.h:
bfd.c: support specific targets as well as searching. When
searching, take default target in preference to others.
bfd.doc: typos
ieee.c, oasys.c: Avoid using the "tdata" macros left of assignment.
liba.out.h: Don't hard-code file offsets; use N_ macros for them.
libbfd.h: Support specific targets as well as searching.
opncls.c: Support specific targets as well as searching.
targets.c: Search is short-circuited if default target matches.
liboasys.c, libieee.c: Undo bothner changes that make macros
work to the left of assignment, but which depend on the
representations of different pointer types being the same.
Fri May 24 18:56:52 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* i386coff.c: created.
* coffcode.h: added support for 386.
* Makefile.in: added support for 386.
* ../include/i386coff.h: created
Wed May 22 07:26:38 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* coffcode.h: removed all put_x_<sizes>
* libbfd.c: Changed #ifdef __GNUC__ to #ifdef HOST_64_BIT, Added
DEFUNS
Tue May 21 08:58:58 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
(bothner)
* opncls.c: Changed obstack_chunk_alloc use xmalloc
Mon May 20 17:12:17 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* everything: Removed sysdep.h from bfd.h and put back into files
from which it was split out. Now 64 bit version is built with a
-DHOST_64_BIT="long long" on the compile line.
Fri May 17 19:35:26 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
Changed all the [get|put][name] routines to use [get|put]_[size
in bytes].
Put in support for 64 bit work. Now two versions of bfd may be
generated, according to the state of TARGET_64_BIT, one which is
32 bit only, and one which is 64/32 bits.
Created new back end 'demo64' to test 64 bit functionality.
Renamed some files to work on DOS.
* archive.c: lint * bfd.c: prototypes and lint. * ecoff.c: added
64bit transfer * icoff.c: added 64bit transfer * ieee.c: name
chage, 64 bit transfer. * liba.out.h: Split out common code from
sunos and newsos into liba.out. Name changes and prototype mods. *
libbfd.c: lint and prototypes, extra 64bit swaps. * libbfd.h:
prototypes for new functions. * libcoff.h: lint * libieee.h: make
work on DOS * liboasys.h: make work on DOS * m88k-bcs.c: Name
change and 64bit stuff.* newsos3.c: common code removed, new jump
table. * oasys.c: Name change * opncls.c: Portability fixes *
srec.c: Name changes * sunos.c: Removed comon code. * targets.c:
Added demo * aout32, aout64.c include aoutx.h * bout.c: used to
be called b.out.c * coffcode.h: used to be called coff-code.h, now
64bit ized. * demo64.c: 64 bit a.out back end
Thu May 16 16:02:07 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
from bothner
* libieee.h: Make ieee_data and ieee_ar_data macros usable
on LHS of assignment, even when using old compilers.
* liboasys.h: Ditto for oasys_data and oasys_ar_data.
* m68kcoff.c: Add enum-to-int casts to accomodate old compilers.
* newsos3.c: Fix definitions of SEGMENT_SIZE and TEXT_START_ADDR.
* opncls.c: Define S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, S_IXOTH if undefined.
* targets.c: Add declaration of newsos3_vec.
Mon May 13 10:03:29 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* aout.c: fixxed some of the problems with filepos calculation.
(swap_ext_reloc): fixed problem with creation of relocs.
(aout_set_section_contents): fixed filepos problem
* coff-code.h: (swap_filehdr_in, swap_filehdr_out) add.
(swap_filehdr) delete. Changed all the usage of bfd_h_put_x.
(swap_aouthdr_in, swap_aouthdr_out) add. (swap_aouthdr) delete.
(coff_real_object_p) cleaned up, added MIPS. (coff_object_p)
cleaned up. (coff_write_object_contents) cleaned up.
* ecoff.c: Totally different. Now supports ecoff fully.
* icoff.c: fixed problems in relocation callout.
* libcoff.h: (struct icofdata) removed hdr structure from tdata.
* m68kcoff.c: updated target vector.
* sunos.c: (choose_reloc_size) added: (sunos4_callback) calls
choose_reloc_size. (sunos4_write_object_contents) now calls
choose_reloc_size so outputs relocs correctly, also calculates the
size of the sections correctly.
Fri May 10 16:58:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
Merge Per Bothner's changes to modularize BFD a.out a bit.
* libbfd.h, libbfd.c (bfd_generic_get_section_contents): Add.
* ieee.c: Cast enums to int before comparing them, for brain-
dead compilers.
* coff-code.h: Remove coff_get_section_contents, and use the
generic one instead.
* aout.c: Derive new module from sunos.c, containing generic
support code for all kinds of a.out files.
* sunos.c: Remove all code that goes in aout.c. Split out
machine dependent followup in sunos4_object_p into
sunos4_callback. Use JUMP_TABLE(aout) for the transver vector,
and redefine only the names we CHANGE, not all the names. Drop
the little-endian vector, and rename the vector as sunos4 rather
than generic.
* b.out.c: Use aout.c routines for most of the work. Slight
changes for the new regime. Remove close_and_cleanup and
get_section_contents in favor of generics. New transfer vector
regime.
* newsos.c: New support for Sony NEWS, another a.out format.
* ecoff.c: Remove close_and_cleanup. New tvec regime.
* icoff.c, m88k-bcs.c: Add write_contents to tvec.
* ieee.c, oasys.c: Remove close_and_cleanup, add write_contents
to tvec.
* opncls.c (bfd_close): Call format-dependent write_contents
routine, if writing, before calling target-dependent
close_and_cleanup routine (which is now always generic, I think).
* srec.c: Use bfd_alloc instead of malloc. Remove
close_and_cleanup and move code from it to
srec_write_object_contents. Add write_contents to tvec.
* targets.c: Remove a.out little vector, replace a.out big
vector with SunOS vector. FIXME: Need Vax support again now.
* libbfd.h: Add write_contents format-dependent-vector to the
bfd_target vector. Supply a generic close_and_cleanup routine.
* liba.out.h: Handle the new aout.c split. Add prototypes for
all routines defined in aout.c. Rename "sunos" things to "aout"
things. Add a few fields where needed for various formats.
* Makefile.in: Add aout.c and newsos.c.
* archive.c, ieee.c, oasys.c: Lint.
Fri May 10 12:34:48 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* ../include/bfd.h
changed forward declaration struct stat; to reduce warnings. Changed
comment on bfd_h_<x>_x.
* ../include/m68kcoff.h, ../include/intel-coff.h,
../include/m88k-bcs.h
Now there are two incarnations of relocs, linenos and syments. One for
internal digestion, and one full of char arrays for I/O. The original
names have gone to detect errors.
* Makefile.in, m68kcoff.c, targets.c
Test new structure code with a 68k coff implementaion
* coff-code.h, icoff.c, coffswap.c, libcoff.h
Fixed all the places where there were problems with the size and
alignments of structures on disk and structures in memory. #ifed out
all the code in coffswap.c, since it should be done using the target
swap routines now.
Thu May 9 11:00:45 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* ieee.c (do_one, ieee_slurp_section_data): now supports the load
multiple reloc command.
* sunos.c (sunos4_set_section_contents): Made it so that sections
are always padded to their alignment size.
Sat May 4 15:49:43 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
* archive.c, bfd.c, coff-code.h, opncls.c, sunos.c, trad-core.c:
Clean up types and such (saber C problems).
* ecoff.c: Clean up types and such. Remove routines that are
not used. Fix up reading and swapping of shorts from files.
Notes on bfd-0.5.2-patch1a, from Per Bothner:
* a.out.vax.c: Remove two bogus "static" from prototypes.
* ecoff.c: Got rid of lots of non-working junk (that had
been copied directly from coff-code.h).
Updated to be consistent with updates to icoff.c and coff-code.h.
* libbfd.h: Added definitions for S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, and S_IXOTH
if they're missing (as they are in (BDS-4.3-based) NewsOS-3).
* sunos.c (n_txtoff): (Re-)Add support for sony. This is a kludge,
but until the target_vector is automatically generated,
it's as good as any. Note that the text offset is the only
difference between NewsOS and SunOs (including magic numbers).
(Most of the sunos_* routines should to renamed bsd_*
and move to a bsd.c file. Then (and when the target_vector
is automatically generated) it might make sense to create
a separate Sony target.)
* sysdep.h: Don't declare fread and fwrite. Causes trouble
on some systems, and doesn't help on others.
Similarly, only define X_OK if not already defined.
* trad-core.c: Don't include sys/stat.h - at least
on NewsOS 3, it has already been included.
Tue Mar 5 01:47:57 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
* coff-code.h (bfd_coff_swap_sym, bfd_coff_swap_aux,
bfd_coff_swap_lineno): Export the routines that byte-swap COFF
symbol tables if necessary when reading them in, so gdb can use
them. Add "bfd_coff_" to the names so they won't conflict with
names in calling programs. FIXME-soon: if coff-code.h is
included in two BFD modules, this will cause duplicate
definitions; the routines should be exported to a separate,
common, module (probably along with a mess of other ones).
Sat Mar 2 12:11:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
Improve modtime support.
* bfd.h: Add boolean mtime_set, and declare bfd_get_mtime.
Remove #define for bfd_get_mtime. Remove gratuitous comment.
* bfd.c (bfd_get_mtime): New fn, caches mtime, gets if not cached.
BUG: archive members still do not get correct mod times.
Improve floating point support for core files.
* sunos.c (struct core): Change void *fpa_dummy to double fp_stuff.
(sunos4_core_file_p): Create a second registers section in the
core file, called ".reg2", for the float registers.
Thu Feb 14 15:49:06 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
* many changes to improve archive handling; found a logic flaw in
bfd_check_format which only just happened to work by cooncidence.
Thu Feb 14 07:53:16 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* bfd.c (bfd_perform_relocation): fixed to use output_offsets
correctly.
* bfd.h: changed type of udata in asymbol to void *, like it
should be. Added bfd_reloc_dangerous enum member.
* coff-code.h: Fixed it so that internally generated symbols get
their values relocated correctly in all cases. Removed calls to
xmalloc.
* icoff.c: Not understanding the destination symbol of a reloc is
not a failure any more, just 'dangerous'. This allows linking of
b.out and coff images.
* sunos.c: Cleaned up the way that ZMAGIC section sizes are
calculated.
Tue Feb 12 13:25:46 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* sunos.c (translate_to_native_sym_flags): fixed
sym_pointer->n_value so that symbols on the way out get their
section relative values calculated correctly.
* coff-code.h (mangle_symbols): fixed problem where tags were not
being relocated for structs, enums, unions. Also various lints.
Mon Feb 11 19:52:26 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
* archive.c (get_elt_at_filepos): system_call_error returned
incorrectly.
Sun Feb 10 23:18:40 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
* Resolve the use of no_error and system_call_error.
The bfd library itself now will never set bfd_error to
no_error.
The code still needs to be combed to make sure all the error
codes are correct. I suspect they are not always set correctly.
* The names of all the messages have _ prepended because the sun
bundled compiler can't distinguish from a macro which takes an
argument and the same identifier in a non-macro context.
* The reason for the above being that entry points which used to
be trampoline functions are now just macros which expand to a
direct call through the bfd's xfer vector.
* (../include/intel-coff.h) F_AR32WR: fix this constant. Why
must gas have its own version of everything (the gas version
had the correct value)
Tue Feb 5 11:46:53 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
* b.out.c: Added patches supplied by chrisb@mipon2.intel.com to
properly support i960 architecture and output correct reloc stuff.
* bfd.h: added prototype for bfd_printable_arch_mach, added
BFD_FAIL
* coff-code.h: Applied patches from chrisb to support i960
architecture, zero relocs and swap them correcly and conditionally
compiled the timestamp.
* sunos.c: Made the default section alignment 2^3 so that doubles
are done properly. Fixed the same reloc bug that was in b.out.c
* sysdep.h: Now compiles on a Posix box
Wed Jan 30 21:36:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
* icoff.c: Fix comment on big-endian version.
* coff-code.h: Make HAS_RELOC really work (it's backwards from
F_RELFLG). Set F_AR32WR in output files if little endian
architecture.
Tue Jan 29 20:56:10 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
* archures.c fixed =/== typo
* sunos.c added architecture stuff for output. Fixed
bug where files where vma(data) != size(text)
were processed wrong.
* coff-code.h added a lint cast
* (../include/a.out.sun4.h) fixed it so zmagic
worked

* coff-code.h fixed includes. Added code to support
big and little endian formats. Various lints. Better
processing of symbols. Changed reloc stuff to new
order
* libbfd.h fixed includes
Mon Jan 21 11:53:51 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
* bfd.h changed name of alignment entry in sec_struct to
alignment_power, because of conflicting uses within bfd.
Now it should be obvious that it's a 2**n alignment
specifier. Removed start_pad, end_alignment, block, minsize,
output_file_alignment, subsection_alignment and original_vma fields.
Added align_power() macro. Fixed bfd_section_alignment
acessor macros. Added bfd_symbol_same_target macro.
* b.out.c (b_out_write_object_contents) fixed to use
new alignment member. Fixed (callj_callback) to use section
relative symbols properly.
* sunos.c (sunos4_object_p) fixed to use new alignment_power.

* b.out.c added callj relocation support, upgrated reloc howto.
Fixed so that asymbol and reloc records are output
correctly.
* bfd.c lots of lint, support for new bfd entry point
bfd_print_symbol.
* bfd.h changed definition of asymbol to contain pointer to
owning bfd, removed target dependencies.
* cache.c took out print statements, put in BFD_ASSERT calls.
* coff-code.h various lints, corrected linenumber output
functionality. Added support for new style asymbols and

pointer lint. Added support for callj relocation. Fixed bug where
the last 32 bytes of the text section were overwritten by data. Fixed bug
where archives of b.out didn't work due bfd_slurp_extended_name_table
returning false.

that it won't be affected by any lengthing of the howto struct typedef.
Various lints

Wed Jan 16 01:55:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at rtl)
* ChangeLog: Started ChangeLog for BFD.
* ToDo: Create file for suggestions.
* Makefile: Support easy loading into Saber C.
Add dependencies for icoff.o and bcs88kcoff.o.
Rename coff.c to coff-code.h. Change callers.
* bfd.c (bfd_check_format): Allow the check_format routines
to return the desired target vector, rather than just a Boolean.
bfd.h (bfd_check_format): Change function pointer return type.
archive.c (bfd_generic_archive_p): change callee.
b.out.c (b_out_little_object_p, b_out_big_object_p,

icoff.c: change callee.
sunos.c (sunos4_object_p, sunos4_core_file_p): change callee.
* libbfd.c (zalloc): It should actually zero the storage!
This was commented out for some reason.
* libbfd.h: Add malloc, xmalloc, memcpy, and fatal decls.
This is so callers can avoid <stdlib.h> which doesn't exist
on older systems.
* bfd.c (map_over_sections): Add debugging code, since I
noticed the section count for sunos core files was bad, but only
GDB had detected the problem.
