ELF: Add support for unique section ID to assembler
Clang's integrated assembler supports multiple section with the same name: .section .text,"ax",@progbits,unique,1 nop .section .text,"ax",@progbits,unique,2 nop "unique,N" assigns the number, N, as the section ID, to a section. The valid values of the section ID are between 0 and 4294967295. It can be used to distinguish different sections with the same section name. This is useful with -fno-unique-section-names -ffunction-sections. -ffunction-sections by default generates .text.foo, .text.bar, etc. Using the same string can save lots of space in .strtab. This patch adds section_id to bfd_section and reuses the linker internal bit in BFD section flags, SEC_LINKER_CREATED, for assmebler internal use to mark valid section_id. It also updates objdump to compare section pointers if 2 sections comes from the same file since 2 different sections can have the same section name. bfd/ PR gas/25380 * bfd-in2.h: Regenerated. * ecoff.c (bfd_debug_section): Add section_id. * section.c (bfd_section): Add section_id.
