Support ELF SHF_GNU_MBIND and PT_GNU_MBIND_XXX
Mark an ALLOC section, which should be placed in special memory area, with SHF_GNU_MBIND. Its sh_info field indicates the special memory type. GNU_MBIND section names start with ".mbind" so that they are placed as orphan sections by linker. All input GNU_MBIND sections with the same sh_type, sh_flags and sh_info are placed in one output GNU_MBIND section. In executable and shared object, create a GNU_MBIND segment for each GNU_MBIND section and its segment type is PT_GNU_MBIND_LO plus the sh_info value. Each GNU_MBIND segment is aligned at page boundary. The assembler syntax: .section .mbind.foo,"adx",%progbits ^ 0: Special memory type. | 'd' for SHF_GNU_MBIND. .section .mbind.foo,"adx",%progbits,0x1 ^ 1: Special memory type. | 'd' for SHF_GNU_MBIND. .section .mbind.bar,"adG",%progbits,.foo_group,comdat,0x2 ^ 2: Special memory type. | 'd' for SHF_GNU_MBIND. bfd/ * elf.c (get_program_header_size): Add a GNU_MBIND segment for each GNU_MBIND section and align GNU_MBIND section to page size.
