GAS: Consistently fix labels at the `.end' pseudo-op
Fix a functional regression with the `.end' pseudo-op, introduced with commit ecb4347adecd ("Last take: approval for MIPS_STABS_ELF killing"), <https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2002-06/msg00443.html>, and commit dcd410fe1544 ("GNU as 2.14 on IRIX 6: crashes with shared libs"), <https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2003-07/msg00415.html>, which caused symbol values for labels placed between the end of a function's contents and its terminating `.end' followed by one of the alignment pseudo-ops to be different depending on whether either `-mdebug', or `-mno-pdr', or neither of the command-line options is in effect, be it implied or specified. Given debug-label-end.s as follows and the `mips-linux' target we have: $ cat debug-label-end.s .text .globl foo .globl bar .align 4, 0 .ent foo foo: nop .aent bar bar: .insn .end foo .align 4, 0 .space 16 .globl baz .ent baz baz: nop .end baz .align 4, 0 .space 16 $ as -o debug-label-end.o debug-label-end.s $ readelf -s debug-label-end.o | grep bar 9: 00000004 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 bar $ as -mdebug -o debug-label-end.o debug-label-end.s $ readelf -s debug-label-end.o | grep bar 9: 00000010 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 bar $ as -mno-pdr -o debug-label-end.o debug-label-end.s $ readelf -s debug-label-end.o | grep bar 8: 00000010 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 1 bar $ The reason is the call to `md_flush_pending_output', which in the case of `mips*-*-*' targets expands to `mips_emit_delays', which in turn calls `mips_no_prev_insn', which calls `mips_clear_insn_labels', which clears the list of outstanding labels. That list is in turn consulted in `mips_align', called in the interpretation of alignment directives, and the labels adjusted to the current location. A call to `md_flush_pending_output' is only made from `s_mips_end' and then only if `-mpdr' is in effect, which is the default for `*-*-linux*' and some other `mips*-*-*' targets. A call to `md_flush_pending_output' is never made from `ecoff_directive_end', which is used in place of `s_mips_end' when `-mdebug' is in effect. Consequently if `-mno-pdr' or `-mdebug' is in effect the list of outstanding labels makes it through to any alignment directive that follows and the labels are differently interpreted depending on the command-lines options used. And we want code produced to be always the same. Call `md_flush_pending_output' unconditionally then in `s_mips_end' and add such a call from `ecoff_directive_end' as well, as long as the macro is defined. While `ecoff_directive_end' is shared among targets, the only one other than `mips*-*-*' actually using it is `alpha*-*-*' and it does not define `md_flush_pending_output'. So the semantics isn't going to change for it and neither it has to have its `s_alpha_end' updated or have code in `ecoff_directive_end' conditionalized. gas/ * ecoff.c (ecoff_directive_end) [md_flush_pending_output]: Call `md_flush_pending_output'. * config/tc-mips.c (s_mips_end) [md_flush_pending_output]: Call `md_flush_pending_output' unconditionally. * testsuite/gas/mips/debug-label-end-1.d: New test. * testsuite/gas/mips/debug-label-end-2.d: New test. * testsuite/gas/mips/debug-label-end-3.d: New test. * testsuite/gas/mips/debug-label-end.s: New test source. * testsuite/gas/mips/mips.exp: Run the new tests.
