Add support for stable secure gateway veneers addresses
2016-08-26 Thomas Preud'homme <thomas.preudhomme@arm.com> bfd/ * bfd-in.h (bfd_elf32_arm_set_target_relocs): Add a new parameter for the input import library bfd. * bfd-in2.h: Regenerate. * elf32-arm.c (struct elf32_arm_link_hash_table): New in_implib_bfd and new_cmse_stub_offset fields. (stub_hash_newfunc): Initialize stub_offset and stub_template_size to -1. (elf32_arm_add_stub): Likewise for stub_offset. (arm_new_stubs_start_offset_ptr): New function. (arm_build_one_stub): Only allocate a stub_offset if it is -1. Allow empty SG veneers to have zero relocations. (arm_size_one_stub): Only initialize stub size and template information for non empty veneers. Do not update veneer section size if veneer already has an offset. (elf32_arm_create_stub): Return the stub entry pointer or NULL instead of a boolean indicating success or failure. (cmse_scan): Change stub_changed parameter into an integer pointer parameter cmse_stub_created to count the number of stub created and adapt to change of return value in elf32_arm_create_stub. (cmse_entry_fct_p): New function. (arm_list_new_cmse_stub): Likewise. (set_cmse_veneer_addr_from_implib): Likewise. (elf32_arm_size_stubs): Define cmse_stub_created, pass its address to cmse_scan instead of that of cmse_stub_changed to compute the number of stub created and use it to initialize stub_changed. Call set_cmse_veneer_addr_from_implib after all cmse_scan. Adapt to change of return value in elf32_arm_create_stub. Use arm_stub_section_start_offset () if not NULL to initialize size of secure gateway veneers section. Initialize stub_offset of Cortex-A8 erratum fix to -1. Use ret to hold return value. (elf32_arm_build_stubs): Use arm_stub_section_start_offset () if not NULL to initialize size of secure gateway veneers section. Adapt comment to stress the importance of zeroing veneer section content. (bfd_elf32_arm_set_target_relocs): Add new in_implib_bfd parameter to initialize eponymous field in struct elf32_arm_link_hash_table. ld/ * emultempl/armelf.em (in_implib_filename): Declare and initialize new variable. (arm_elf_create_output_section_statements): Open import input library file for writing and pass resulting in_implib_bfd to bfd_elf32_arm_set_target_relocs. (PARSE_AND_LIST_PROLOGUE): Define OPTION_IN_IMPLIB option. (PARSE_AND_LIST_LONGOPTS): Define --in-implib option. (PARSE_AND_LIST_OPTIONS): Add help message for --in-implib option. (PARSE_AND_LIST_ARGS_CASES): Handle new OPTION_IN_IMPLIB case. * ld.texinfo (--cmse-implib): Update to mention --in-implib. (--in-implib): Document new option. * NEWS: Likewise. * testsuite/ld-arm/arm-elf.exp (Secure gateway import library generation): add --defsym VER=1 to gas CLI. (Secure gateway import library generation: errors): Likewise. (Input secure gateway import library): New test. (Input secure gateway import library: no output import library): Likewise. (Input secure gateway import library: not an SG input import library): Likewise. (Input secure gateway import library: earlier stub section base): Likewise. (Input secure gateway import library: later stub section base): Likewise. (Input secure gateway import library: veneer comeback): Likewise. (Input secure gateway import library: entry function change): Likewise. * testsuite/ld-arm/cmse-implib.s: Add input import library testing. * testsuite/ld-arm/cmse-implib.rd: Update accordingly. * testsuite/ld-arm/cmse-new-implib.out: New file. * testsuite/ld-arm/cmse-new-implib.rd: Likewise. * testsuite/ld-arm/cmse-new-implib-no-output.out: Likewise. * testsuite/ld-arm/cmse-new-implib-not-sg-in-implib.out: Likewise. * testsuite/ld-arm/cmse-new-earlier-later-implib.out: Likewise. * testsuite/ld-arm/cmse-new-comeback-implib.rd: Likewise. * testsuite/ld-arm/cmse-new-wrong-implib.out: Likewise.

Changes in 2.28:
+* Add --in-implib=<infile> to the ARM linker to enable specifying a set of
+ Secure Gateway veneers that must exist in the output import library specified
+ by --out-implib=<outfile> and the address they must have. As such,
+ --in-implib is only supported in combination with --cmse-implib.
+
* Extended the --out-implib=<file> option, previously restricted to x86 PE
targets, to any ELF based target. This allows the generation of an import
library for an ELF executable, which can then be used by another application
