Rewrite ppc32 backend .sdata and .sdata2 handling
1) _SDA_BASE_ and _SDA2_BASE_ and defined automatically, in a similar
manner to the way _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ is handled. It's a little
more complicated to remove the symbols because _SDA_BASE_ needs to
be there if either .sdata or .sbss is present, and similarly for
_SDA2_BASE.
2) The linker created .sdata and .sdata2 sections used for
R_PPC_EMB_SDAI16 and R_PPC_EMB_SDA2I16 pointers are created early.
Nowadays we strip unneeded sections from the output, so it isn't
necessary to delay creating the sections.
3) The output section for targets of various SDA relocs is now checked
as per the ABI(s). We previously allowed .sdata.foo and similar,
most likely because at some stage we were checking input sections.
Also, the patch fixes a long-standing bug in size_input_sections
that affects the values of symbols defined in stripped input
sections.
PR 16952
bfd/
* elf32-ppc.c (ppc_elf_create_linker_section): Move earlier.
Remove redundant setting of htab->elf.dynobj. Don't align.
Define .sdata symbols using _bfd_elf_define_linkage_sym.
(ppc_elf_create_glink): Call ppc_elf_create_linker_section.
(create_sdata_sym): Delete.
(elf_allocate_pointer_linker_section): Rename from
elf_create_pointer_linker_section. Align section.
(ppc_elf_check_relocs): Don't call ppc_elf_creat_linker_section
directly here, or create_sdata_sym. Set ref_regular on _SDA_BASE_
and _SDA2_BASE_.
(ppc_elf_size_dynamic_sections): Remove ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED on param.
Remove unnecessary tests on _SDA_BASE_ sym.
(maybe_strip_sdasym, ppc_elf_maybe_strip_sdata_syms): New functions.
(ppc_elf_relocate_section): Tighten SDA reloc symbol section checks.
* elf32-ppc.h (ppc_elf_set_sdata_syms): Delete.
(ppc_elf_maybe_strip_sdata_syms): Declare.
ld/
* emulparams/elf32ppccommon.sh (_SDA_BASE_, _SDA2_BASE_): Delete.
* emultempl/ppc32elf.em (ppc_before_allocation): Call
ppc_elf_maybe_strip_sdata_syms.
* ldlang.c (size_input_section): Correct output_offset value
for excluded input sections.
