[ARM] Update bfd's Tag_CPU_arch knowledge
BFD's bfd_get_mach () function returns a bfd specific value representing the architecture of the target which is populated from the Tag_CPU_arch build attribute value of that target. Among other users of that interfacem, objdump which uses it to print the architecture version of the binary being examinated and to decide what instruction is available if run with "-m arm" via its own mapping from bfd_mach_arm_X values to feature bits available. However, both BFD and objdump's most recent known architecture is Armv5TE. When encountering a newer architecture bfd_get_mach will return bfd_mach_arm_unknown. This is unfortunate since objdump uses that value to allow all instructions on all architectures which is already what it does by default, making the "-m arm" trick useless. This patch updates BFD and objdump's knowledge of Arm architecture versions up to the latest Armv8-M Baseline and Mainline, Armv8-R and Armv8.4-A architectures. Since several architecture versions (eg. 8.X-A) share the same Tag_CPU_arch build attribute value and bfd_mach_arm values, the mapping from bfd machine value to feature bits need to return the most featureful feature bits that would yield the given bfd machine value otherwise some instruction would not disassemble under "-m arm" mode. The patch rework that mapping to make this clearer and simplify writing the mapping rules. In particular, for simplicity all FPU instructions are allowed in all cases. Finally, the patch also rewrite the cpu_arch_ver table in GAS to use the TAG_CPU_ARCH_X macros rather than hardcode their value. 2018-07-02 Thomas Preud'homme <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com> bfd/ * archures.c (bfd_mach_arm_5TEJ, bfd_mach_arm_6, bfd_mach_arm_6KZ, bfd_mach_arm_6T2, bfd_mach_arm_6K, bfd_mach_arm_7, bfd_mach_arm_6M, bfd_mach_arm_6SM, bfd_mach_arm_7EM, bfd_mach_arm_8, bfd_mach_arm_8R, bfd_mach_arm_8M_BASE, bfd_mach_arm_8M_MAIN): Define. * bfd-in2.h: Regenerate. * cpu-arm.c (arch_info_struct): Add entries for above new bfd_mach_arm values. * elf32-arm.c (bfd_arm_get_mach_from_attributes): Add Tag_CPU_arch to bfd_mach_arm mapping logic for pre Armv4 and Armv5TEJ and later architectures.
