7 daysPR 32603, ld -w misbehaviourAlan Modra1-37/+35
ld -w currently causes segmentation faults and other misbehaviour since it changes einfo with %F in the format string (fatal error) to not exit. This patch fixes that by introducing a new variant of einfo called "fatal" that always exits, and replaces all einfo calls using %F with a call to fatal without the %F. I considered modifying einfo to inspect the first 2 or 4 chars in the format string, looking for %F, but decided that was probably a bad idea given that translators might have moved the %F. It's also a little nicer to inform the compiler of a function that doesn't return. The patch also fixes some formatting nits, and makes use of %pA to print section names in a couple of places in aix.em.
2025-01-20Replace xmalloc with stat_alloc in ld parserAlan Modra1-21/+1

2025-01-14ld: Add --enable-memory-seal configure optionAdhemerval Zanella1-0/+7
Add --enable-memory-seal linker configure option to enable memory sealing (GNU_PROPERTY_MEMORY_SEAL) by default. Change-Id: I4ce4ff33657f0f09b1ceb06210b6fcaa501f1799
2025-01-14elf: Add GNU_PROPERTY_MEMORY_SEAL gnu propertyAdhemerval Zanella1-0/+4
The GNU_PROPERTY_MEMORY_SEAL gnu property is a way to mark binaries to be memory sealed by the loader, to avoid further changes of PT_LOAD segments (such as unmapping or change permission flags). This is done along with Linux kernel (the mseal syscall [1]), and C runtime supports to instruct the kernel on the correct time during program startup (for instance, after RELRO handling). This support is added along the glibc support to handle the new gnu property [2]. This is a opt-in security features, like other security hardening ones like NX-stack or RELRO. The new property is ignored if present on ET_REL objects, and only added on ET_EXEC/ET_DYN if the linker option is used. A gnu property is used instead of DT_FLAGS_1 flag to allow memory sealing to work with ET_EXEC without PT_DYNAMIC support (at least on glibc some ports still do no support static-pie).

2024-10-29ld/ELF: Add --image-base command line option to the ELF linkerHakan Candar1-0/+5
LLD has dropped the option -Ttext-segment for specifying image base addresses, instead forcing the use of the --image-base option for both ELF and PE targets. As it stands, GNU LD and LLVM LLD are incompatible, having two different options for the same functionality. This patch enables the use of --image-base on ELF targets, advancing consistency and compatibility. See: https://reviews.llvm.org/D70468 https://maskray.me/blog/2020-11-15-explain-gnu-linker-options#address-related https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25207 Moreover, a new test has been added to ensure -z separate-code behaviour when used with -Ttext-segment stays the same. When this combination is used, -Ttext-segment sets the address of the first segment (R), not the text segment (RX), and like with -z noseparate-code, no segments lesser than the specified address are created. If this behaviour was to change, the first (R) segment of the ELF file would begin in a lesser address than the specified text (RX) segment, breaking traditional use of this option for specifying image base address.

2024-09-24ld: support --build-id=xx modeFrank Ch. Eigler1-0/+9
The is patch adds a new ld build-id computation mode, "xx", using xxhash in its 128-bit mode. The patch prereqs the xxhash-devel headers being installed, and uses the "all-inlined" model, so no run-time or link-time library dependence exists. The xxhash mode performs well, saving roughly 20% of total userspace run time from an ld job over a 800MB shared library relative to sha1. 128 bits of good hash should be collision-resistant to a number of distinct binaries that numbers in the 2**32 - 2**64 range, even if not "crypto" level hash. Confirmations of this are in progress. ld/configury: add --with-xxhash mode, different from gdb case because only using it in inline mode ld/ldbuildid.c: add "xx" mode, #if WITH_XXHASH ld/NEWS, ld.texi: mention new option ld/lexsup.c: add enumeration of --build-id STYLES to --help ld/testsuite/ld-elf/build-id.exp: add test case for 0xHEX case and conditional for xx case; also, simply tcl list syntax https://inbox.sourceware.org/binutils/20240917201509.GB26396@redhat.com/ Signed-off-by: Frank Ch.

2022-09-26binutils, gdb: support zstd compressed debug sectionsFangrui Song1-2/+2
PR29397 PR29563: Add new configure option --with-zstd which defaults to auto. If pkgconfig/libzstd.pc is found, define HAVE_ZSTD and support zstd compressed debug sections for most tools. * bfd: for addr2line, objdump --dwarf, gdb, etc * gas: support --compress-debug-sections=zstd * ld: support ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD input and --compress-debug-sections=zstd * objcopy: support ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD input for --decompress-debug-sections and --compress-debug-sections=zstd * gdb: support ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD input. The bfd change references zstd symbols, so gdb has to link against -lzstd in this patch. If zstd is not supported, ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD input triggers an error. We can avoid HAVE_ZSTD if binutils-gdb imports zstd/ like zlib/, but this is too heavyweight, so don't do it for now. ``` % ld/ld-new a.o ld/ld-new: a.o: section .debug_abbrev is compressed with zstd, but BFD is not built with zstd support ... % ld/ld-new a.o --compress-debug-sections=zstd ld/ld-new: --compress-debug-sections=zstd: ld is not built with zstd support % binutils/objcopy --compress-debug-sections=zstd a.o b.o binutils/objcopy: --compress-debug-sections=zstd: binutils is not built with zstd support % binutils/objcopy b.o --decompress-debug-sections binutils/objcopy: zstd.o: section .debug_abbrev is compressed with zstd, but BFD is not built with zstd support ... ```
2022-05-26ld: add --package-metadataLuca Boccassi1-0/+2
Generate a .note.package FDO package metadata ELF note, following the spec: https://systemd.io/ELF_PACKAGE_METADATA/ If the jansson library is available at build time (and it is explicitly enabled), link ld to it, and use it to validate that the input is correct JSON, to avoid writing garbage to the file. The configure option --enable-jansson has to be used to explicitly enable it (error out when not found). This allows bootstrappers (or others who are not interested) to seamlessly skip it without issues.

2021-03-29TRUE/FALSE simplificationAlan Modra1-1/+1
There is really no need to write code like "foo != 0 ? TRUE : FALSE" unless we had stupidly defined FALSE as something other than 0 or TRUE as something other than 1. The simpler "foo != 0" does just as well. Similarly "(condition == TRUE)" or "(condition == FALSE) can be simplified to "(condition)" and "(!condition)" respectively. I'll note that there is reason to use "integer_expression != 0" when assigning a bfd_boolean rather than the simpler "integer_expression", if you expect the variable to have 0 or 1 value. It's probably even a good idea to not rely on implicit conversion if bfd_boolean were _Bool. bfd/ * aoutx.h (aout_link_write_symbols): Don't cast boolean expression to bfd_boolean. * elf32-or1k.c (or1k_set_got_and_rela_sizes): Dont compare booleans against FALSE. * elf32-arc.c (name_for_global_symbol): Don't compare boolean to TRUE.
