Index PowerPC64 linker generated .eh_frame in .eh_frame_hdr
I noticed recently that .eh_frame FDEs generated by the linker for call stubs and .glink weren't being indexed in .eh_frame_hdr, due to bfd_elf_discard_info being run before the linker generated .eh_frame sections were available for parsing. This patch moves code around in elf64-ppc.c and ppc64elf.em to avoid that problem. Another problem fixed here is that --gc-sections parses .eh_frame early, and the existing machinery allows only one go at parsing the .eh_frame sections. That resulted in the linker generated .eh_frame CIEs not being merged and no .eh_frame_hdr index entries for those FDEs. It turns out that all the info from parsing .eh_frame is attached to the section, so order of parsing isn't important, and after parsing sec_info_type being set will prevent a section being parsed again. At least, when parsing doesn't hit an error. So there isn't really any need for "parsed_eh_frame". "merge_cies" is also redundant, which means _bfd_elf_{begin,end}_eh_frame_parsing can also disappear. bfd/ * elf-bfd.h (struct eh_frame_hdr_info): Delete merge_cies and parsed_eh_frames. (_bfd_elf_begin_eh_frame_parsing): Delete. (_bfd_elf_end_eh_frame_parsing): Delete. * elf-eh-frame.c (_bfd_elf_begin_eh_frame_parsing): Delete. (_bfd_elf_end_eh_frame_parsing): Delete. (_bfd_elf_parse_eh_frame): Don't test parsed_eh_frame. Test !info->relocatable in place of merge_cies. * elflink.c (bfd_elf_gc_sections, bfd_elf_discard_info): Adjust. * elf64-ppc.c (glink_eh_frame_cie): Pad to multiple of 8. (ppc64_elf_size_stubs): Likewise pad stub FDE. (ppc64_elf_build_stubs): Move code setting glink .eh_frame to.. (ppc64_elf_size_stubs): ..here and.. (ppc64_elf_finish_dynamic_sections): ..here. ld/ * emultempl/ppc64elf.em (gld${EMULATION_NAME}_after_allocation): Call bfd_elf_discard_info after generating glink .eh_frame. Delete redundant test on ppc64_elf_setup_section_lists status.
