symbols for bfd_simple_get_relocated_section_contents
If symbols are provided by the caller of this function they are passed on to bfd_get_relocated_section_contents. No surprises there. It gets a little weird if they are not provided. In that case they are read from the bfd by _bfd_generic_link_add_symbols, and global symbols are added to the generic linker hash table. Global symbols are not added to the linker hash table if symbols *are* provided. Now the linker hash table symbols are not used by the generic bfd_get_relocated_section_conents, and also not by most target versions when called from bfd_simple_get_relocated_section_contents except for symbols like "_gp". So it mostly doesn't matter whether symbols are in the linker hash table, but it's odd that there is a difference. We could always add them, but I'm inclined to think that is unnecessary work so this patch always leaves them out. Also, symbols are canonicalized and written into a malloc'd buffer. The buffer isn't freed, see commit 8e16317ca5eb. I don't know whether that matters any more, but in any case I can't see why we need another copy of the symbols when _bfd_generic_link_read_symbols has already cached symbols. * simple.c (bfd_simple_get_relocated_section_contents): If not provided, read symbols via bfd_generic_link_read_symbols. Do not create another copy of symbols. Tidy failure exits. Minor tidy of bfd_get_relocated_section_contents and bfd_get_full_section_contents arguments.
