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.

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.
