Add --compress-debug-sections=[none|zlib|zlib-gnu|zlib-gabi]
This patch adds --compress-debug-sections=[none|zlib|zlib-gnu|zlib-gabi] to ld for ELF targets to support generating compressed DWARF debug sections. We always generate .zdebug_* section since section names have been finalized and they can't be changed easily when compression is being performed. bfd/ * bfd-in.h (compressed_debug_section_type): New. * compress.c (bfd_compress_section_contents): Add an argument for linker write compression and always generate .zdebug_* section when linking. (bfd_init_section_compress_status): Pass FALSE to bfd_compress_section_contents. (bfd_compress_section): New function. * elf.c (elf_fake_sections): For linking, set SEC_ELF_COMPRESS on DWARF debug sections if COMPRESS_DEBUG is set and rename section if COMPRESS_DEBUG_GABI_ZLIB isn't set. (assign_file_positions_for_non_load_sections): Set sh_offset to -1 if SEC_ELF_COMPRESS is set. (assign_file_positions_except_relocs): Likwise. (_bfd_elf_assign_file_positions_for_relocs): Renamed to ... (_bfd_elf_assign_file_positions_for_non_load): This. Change return time to bfd_boolean. Compress the section if SEC_ELF_COMPRESS is set. (_bfd_elf_write_object_contents): Updated. (_bfd_elf_set_section_contents): Write section contents to the buffer if SEC_ELF_COMPRESS is set. * merge.c: Include "elf-bfd.h". (sec_merge_emit): Add arguments for contents and offset. Write to contents with offset if contents isn't NULL. (_bfd_write_merged_section): Write section contents to the buffer if SEC_ELF_COMPRESS is set. Pass contents and output_offset to sec_merge_emit. * elflink.c (bfd_elf_final_link): Allocate the buffer for output section contents if SEC_ELF_COMPRESS is set. * section.c (SEC_ELF_COMPRESS): New. * bfd-in2.h: Regenerated. gas/ * as.h (compressed_debug_section_type): Removed. include/ * bfdlink.h (bfd_link_info): Add compress_debug. ld/ * ld.texinfo: Document --compress-debug-sections=. * ldmain.c (main): Set BFD_COMPRESS on output_bfd if COMPRESS_DEBUG is set. Set BFD_COMPRESS_GABI on output_bfd for COMPRESS_DEBUG_GABI_ZLIB. * lexsup.c (elf_static_list_options): Add --compress-debug-sections=. * emultempl/elf32.em (OPTION_COMPRESS_DEBUG): New. (xtra_long): Add "compress-debug-sections". (gld${EMULATION_NAME}_handle_option): Handle OPTION_COMPRESS_DEBUG. ld/testsuite/ * ld-elf/compress.exp (build_tests): Add tests for --compress-debug-sections=. (run_tests): Likewise. Add additonal tests for --compress-debug-sections=. * ld-elf/gabiend.rt: New file. * ld-elf/gabinormal.rt: Likewise. * ld-elf/gnubegin.rS: Likewise. * ld-elf/gnunormal.rS: Likewise. * ld-elf/zlibbegin.rS: Likewise. * ld-elf/zlibnormal.rS: Likewise.
