ppc476 icache bug workaround
This implements a work-around for an icache bug on 476 that can cause execution of stale instructions when control falls through from one page to the next. The idea is to prevent such fall-through by replacing the last instruction on a page with a branch to a patch area containing the instruction, then branch to the next page. The patch also fixes a number of bugs in the existing support for long branch trampolines. bfd/ * elf32-ppc.c (struct ppc_elf_link_hash_table): Add params. Delete emit_stub_syms, no_tls_get_addr_opt. Update all uses. (ppc_elf_link_params): New function. (ppc_elf_create_glink): Align .glink to 64 bytes for ppc476 workaround. (ppc_elf_select_plt_layout): Remove plt_style and emit_stub_syms parameters. Use htab->params instead. (ppc_elf_tls_setup): Remove no_tls_get_addr_opt parameter. (ppc_elf_size_dynamic_sections): Align __glink_PLTresolve to 64 bytes for ppc476 workaround. (struct ppc_elf_relax_info): New. (ppc_elf_relax_section): Exclude linker created sections and those too small to hold one instruction. Don't add another branch around trampolines on later relax passes. Don't generate trampolines for undefined symbols when !relocatable, nor for plugin symbols. Allocate space for ppc476 workaround patch area. Free fixups on error return path. (ppc_elf_relocate_section): Handle ppc476 workaround patching. * elf32-ppc.h (struct ppc_elf_params): New. (ppc_elf_select_plt_layout, ppc_elf_tls_setup): Update prototype. (ppc_elf_link_params): Declare. * section.c (SEC_INFO_TYPE_TARGET): Define. * bfd-in2.h: Regenerate. ld/ * emultempl/ppc32elf.em (no_tls_get_addr_opt, emit_stub_syms) plt_style): Delete. Adjust all refs to instead use.. (params): ..this. New variable. (ppc_after_open_output): New function. Tweak params and pass to ppc_elf_link_params. (ppc_after_open): Adjust ppc_elf_select_plt_layout call. (ppc_before_allocation): Adjust ppc_elf_tls_setup call. Enable relaxation for ppc476 workaround. (PARSE_AND_LIST_*): Add --{no-,}ppc476-workaround support. (LDEMUL_CREATE_OUTPUT_SECTION_STATEMENTS): Define.
