(elfNN_bed): Add elf_backend_reloc_type_class. * elf.c (_bfd_elf_reloc_type_class): New. * elf32-i386.c (elf_i386_check_relocs): Set DF_TEXTREL if the reloc is against read-only section. (elf_i386_size_dynamic_sections): Use DF_TEXTREL flag instead of looking up section names for DT_TEXTREL. (elf_i386_reloc_type_class): New. (elf_backend_reloc_type_class): Define. * elf32-sparc.c (elf32_sparc_check_relocs): Set DF_TEXTREL if the reloc is against read-only section. (elf32_sparc_size_dynamic_sections): Use DF_TEXTREL flag instead of looking up section names for DT_TEXTREL. (elf32_sparc_reloc_type_class): New. (elf_backend_reloc_type_class): Define. * elf64-sparc.c (sparc64_elf_check_relocs): Set DF_TEXTREL if the reloc is against read-only section. (sparc64_elf_size_dynamic_sections): Use DF_TEXTREL flag instead of looking up section names for DT_TEXTREL. (sparc64_elf_reloc_type_class): New. (elf_backend_reloc_type_class): Define. * elfxx-ia64.c (struct elfNN_ia64_link_hash_table): Add reltext field. (elfNN_ia64_hash_table_create): Clear ia64_info. (get_reloc_section): Set DF_TEXTREL if the reloc is against read-only section. (elfNN_ia64_size_dynamic_sections): Use ia64_info->reltext flag instead of looking up section names for DT_TEXTREL. (elfNN_ia64_reloc_type_class): New. (elf_backend_reloc_type_class): Define. * elflink.h (size_dynamic_sections): Add spare DT_NULL tags. (struct elf_link_sort_rela): New. (elf_link_sort_cmp1, elf_link_sort_cmp2, elf_link_sort_relocs): New. (elf_bfd_final_link): Call elf_link_sort_relocs. Convert one spare DT_NULL into DT_RELCOUNT resp. DT_RELACOUNT if necessary. * bfdlink.h (struct bfd_link_info): Add combreloc and spare_dynamic_tags fields. * emultempl/elf32.em (place_orphan): Place orphan .rel* sections into .rel.dyn resp. .rela.dyn if combreloc. (get_script): If .x linker script is equal to .xn, only put it once into the binary. Add .xc and .xsc scripts. (parse_args): Handle -z combreloc and -z nocombreloc. * scripttempl/elf.sc (.rela.sbss): Fix a typo. For .xc and .xsc scripts put all .rel* or .rela* input sections but .rel*.plt and PLT-like sections into .rel.dyn resp. .rela.dyn. * genscripts.sh (GENERATE_COMBRELOC_SCRIPT): Set if SCRIPT_NAME is elf. Strip trailing whitespace from script. Generate .xc and .xsc scripts if requested. * ldmain.c (main): Initialize link_info.combreloc and link_info.spare_dynamic_tags. * lexsup.c (OPTION_SPARE_DYNAMIC_TAGS): Define. (ld_options): Add --spare-dynamic-tags option. (parse_args): Likewise. * ld.texinfo: Document -z combreloc and -z nocombreloc. * ldint.texinfo: Document .xc and .xsc linker scripts. * NEWS: Add notes about -z combreloc and SHF_MERGE. --- ld/NEWS | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) (limited to 'ld/NEWS') diff --git a/ld/NEWS b/ld/NEWS index f1e7ece..27dc891 100644 --- a/ld/NEWS +++ b/ld/NEWS @@ -1,5 +1,11 @@ -*- text -*- +* Support for -z combreloc in the ELF linker, which puts dynamic + relocations against the same symbol together, so that dynamic linker + can use an one-entry symbol lookup cache. + +* Support for ELF SHF_MERGE section merging, by Jakub Jelinek. + * Support for AMD x86-64 architecture, by Jan Hubicka, SuSE Labs. * Support added for eliminating duplicate DWARF2 debug information by -- cgit v1.1
