Add support for TLS in XCOFF. Amongst the things done by this commit:
- Update XCOFF auxialiary header to match new version and allow TLS
sections.
- Add TLS sections (.tdata and .tbss) support in gas and ld.
- Add support for the TLS relocations in gas and ld.
Two different types BFD_RELOC are created for PPC and PPC64 as
the size is a pointer, thus distinct in 32 or 64bit.
The addresses given by ld to .tdata and .tbss is a bit special. In
XCOFF, these addresses are actually offsets from the TLS pointer
computed at runtime. AIX assembly and linker does the same. In
top of that, the .tdata must be before .data (this is mandatory for AIX
loader). Thus, the aix ld script is recomputing "." before .data to restore
its original value. There might be a simpler way, but this one is working.
Optimisation linked to TLS relocations aren't yet implemented.

Implement support for largetoc on XCOFF.
R_TOCU and R_TOCL are referenced by the new BFD defines:
BFD_RELOC_PPC_TOC16_HI and BFD_RELOC_PPC_TOC16_LO.
A new toc storage class is added XMC_TE.
In order to correctly handle R_TOCU, the logic behind
xcoff_reloc_type_toc is changed to compute the whole TOC offset
instead of just the difference between the "link" offset and the
"assembly" offset.
In gas, add a function to transform addis format used by AIX
"addis RT, D(RA)" into the ELF format "addis RT, RA, SI".

Since the last time AIX HOWTO table was modified, IBM has now
released an official documentation about XCOFF relocations.
This commit corrects the wrong ones and add some missing.
For now, the "custom" relocations made for xcoff_rtype2howto have
been kept.
The new relocations are still set as EMPTY_HOWTO because they will
be implemented in later commits.
In xcoff[64]_ppc_relocate_section, instead of recreating howto
from scratch, it's better to use the existing howto from the
table and fixing it according to r_size field.

According to the commit abd20cb637008da9d32018b4b03973e119388a0a, an
intersting thing is that - the more relax passes, the more chances of
relaxations are reduced [1]. Originally, we set the boolean `again`
to TRUE once the code is actually deleted, and then we run the relaxations
repeatedly if `again` is still TRUE. But `again` only works for the
relax pass itself, and won't affect others. That is - we can not use
`again` to re-run the relax pass when we already enter into the following
passes (can not run the relax passes backwards). Besides, we must seperate
the PCREL relaxations into two relax passes for some reasons [2], it make
us lose some relax opportunities.
This patch try to fix the problem, and the basic idea was come from Jim
Wilson - we use a new boolean, restart_relax, to determine if we need to
run the whole relax passes again from 0 to 2. Once we have deleted the
code between relax pass 0 to 2, the restart_relax will be set to TRUE,
we should run the whole relaxations again to give them more chances to
shorten the code. We will only enter into the relax pass 3 when the
restart_relax is FALSE, since we can't relax anything else once we start
to handle the alignments.
I have passed the gcc/binutils regressions by riscv-gnu-toolchain, and
looks fine for now.

The offset-within-section field in the symbol table entry is only 32
bits wide, so rather than emitting bogus entries omit them, and issue
a diagnostic identifying the issue.
This requires adjusting the PR/22267 test to no longer produce symbols
with out of range values on 64-bit BFD. This also depends on
adjustments to testsuite/ld-scripts/map-address.* made by an earlier
patch. The purpose of the test can very well be achieved nevertheless.

|
|
* elf.c (bfd_elf_generic_reloc): Make references between debug

|

In PE images section addresses get expressed as addresses relative to
the image base. Therefore the VA of a section must be no less than the
image base, and after subtraction of the image base the resulting value
should fit in 32 bits. (The issue is particularly obvious to notice when
sections, perhaps because of ELF assumptions, get placed at VA 0 by
default. Debugging info sections as well as .comment, when input files
are ELF, are a good example. All such sections need proper mentioning in
the linker script to avoid this warning.)
There are a number of test cases which previously produced bogus images,
yet still declared the test a success. Like done for other tests
already, force a zero image base for these. This then also allows (and
requires) dropping again xfail-s which 39a7b38fac0e ("Fix linker tests
to work with 16-bit targets") had added to ld-scripts/default-script*.d
(originally as skip-s). This also depends on similar adjustments to
testsuite/ld-scripts/map-address.* made by an earlier patch.
For ld-scripts/print-memory-usage.* I suppose xcoff could be dropped
from the exclusion list by suppressing garbage collection, just like
already done in e.g. (as seen in the diff here) ld-scripts/data.*, but I
didn't want to make unrelated adjustments.

When linking Windows x86-64 relocatable object files to generate x86-64
ELF executable, we need to subtract __ImageBase, aka __executable_start,
for R_AMD64_IMAGEBASE relocation:
1. Add link_info to struct output_elf_obj_tdata to store linker info and
_bfd_get_link_info() to retrieve it.
2. Add ldelf_set_output_arch to set up link_info.
3. Add pex64_link_add_symbols to create an indirect reference to
__executable_start for __ImageBase to support R_AMD64_IMAGEBASE relocation
when adding symbols from Windows x86-64 relocatable object files to
generate x86-64 ELF executable.
4. Also subtract __ImageBase for R_AMD64_IMAGEBASE when generating x86-64
ELF executable.

Adds support for including RISC-V control and status registers into
core files.
The value for the define NT_RISCV_CSR is set to 0x900, this
corresponds to a patch I have proposed for the Linux kernel here:
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-riscv/2020-December/003910.html
As I have not yet heard if the above patch will be accepted into the
kernel or not I have set the note name string to "GDB", and the note
type to NT_RISCV_CSR.
This means that if the above patch is rejected from the kernel, and
the note type number 0x900 is assigned to some other note type, we
will still be able to distinguish between the GDB produced
NT_RISCV_CSR, and the kernel produced notes, where the name would be
set to "CORE".

When creating a core file GDB will call the function
elfcore_write_prstatus to write out the general purpose registers
along with the pid/tid for the thread (into a prstatus structure) and
the executable name and arguments (into a prpsinfo_t structure).
However, for a bare metal RISC-V tool chain the prstatus_t and
prpsinfo_t types are not defined so the elfcore_write_prstatus
function will return NULL, preventing core file creation.
This commit provides the `elf_backend_write_core_note' hook and uses
the provided function to write out the required information.
In order to keep changes in the non bare metal tools to a minimum, the
provided backend function will itself return NULL when the prstatus_t
or pspsinfo_t types are available, the consequence of this is that the
generic code in elfcore_write_prstatus will be used just as before.
But, when prstatus_t or prpsinfo_t is not available, the new backend
function will write out the information using predefined offsets.
This new functionality will be used by a later GDB commit that will
add bare metal core dumps for RISC-V.

This commit lays the ground work for allowing GDB to write its target
description into a generated core file.
The goal of this work is to allow a user to connect to a remote
target, capture a core file from within GDB, then pass the executable
and core file to another user and have the user be able to examine the
state of the machine without needing to connect to a running target.
Different remote targets can have different register sets and this
information is communicated from the target to GDB in the target
description.
It is possible for a user to extract the target description from GDB
and pass this along with the core file so that when the core file is
used the target description can be fed back into GDB, however this is
not a great user experience.
It would be nicer, I think, if GDB could write the target description
directly into the core file, and then make use of this description
when loading a core file.
This commit performs the binutils/bfd side of this task, adding the
boiler plate functions to access the target description from within a
core file note, and reserving a new number for a note containing the
target description. Later commits will extend GDB to make use of
this.
The new note is given the name 'GDB' and a type NT_GDB_TDESC. This
should hopefully protect us if there's ever a reuse of the number
assigned to NT_GDB_TDESC by some other core file producer. It should
also, hopefully, make it clearer to users that this note carries GDB
specific information.

bfd_perform_relocation should not have special case target code. This
patch moves the code that was there for x86_64 PE linking to ELF
output into the x86_64 PE howto special function, correcting that
function for linking to targets other than ELF too. The fixes in
bfd_perform_relocation were over-complicated due to needing to
compensate for things that had already gone wrong in coff_amd64_reloc.
In particular, an adjustment for pc-relative relocs was done in a way
that meant adjustment for things related to symbol offsets was lost.
I think those two things are orthogonal, but who knows with COFF where
addends and symbol values are found randomly in the section contents.
Note that linking natively to an x86_64 PE output relocates by
coff_pe_amd64_relocate_section, which does not use arelent relocs or
bfd_perform_relocation, but be aware of coff_amd64_rtype_to_howto
hacking addends for relocations. The adjustments for a particular
relocation type there and in coff_amd64_reloc ought to match after
taking into consideration CALC_ADDEND. They don't. For example,
the pc-relative adjustment for R_PCRWORD is 2 bytes in
coff_amd64_reloc and 4 bytes in coff_amd64_rtype_to_howto.

It is my understanding that IMAGE_SCN_LNK_* are supposed to communicate
information to the (static) linker, and become at best meaningless in PE
images. I wouldn't call loaders wrong which would refuse to process
sections with any of these bits set. While there's no replacement for
IMAGE_SCN_LNK_COMDAT, use IMAGE_SCN_MEM_DISCARDABLE in place of
IMAGE_SCN_LNK_REMOVE in this case.

The patch adds a missing elf64_sparc_copy_solaris_special_section_fields
function that enables to fill sh_link and sh_info fields in .SUNW_* sections.
Note that elf64_sparc_copy_solaris_special_section_fields is empty since
the default handling is currently sufficient for GNU strip command.

This is a tricky one. BFD, on the linker's behalf, reports symbols to
libctf via the ctf_new_symbol and ctf_new_dynsym callbacks, which
ultimately call ctf_link_add_linker_symbol. But while this happens
after strtab offsets are finalized, it happens before the .dynstr is
actually laid out, so we can't iterate over it at this stage and
it is not clear what the reported symbols are actually called. So
a second callback, examine_strtab, is called after the .dynstr is
finalized, which calls ctf_link_add_strtab and ultimately leads
to ldelf_ctf_strtab_iter_cb being called back repeatedly until the
offsets of every string in the .dynstr is passed to libctf.
libctf can then use this to get symbol names out of the input (which
usually stores symbol types in the form of a name -> type mapping at
this stage) and extract the types of those symbols, feeding them back
into their final form as a 1:1 association with the real symtab's
STT_OBJ and STT_FUNC symbols (with a few skipped, see
ctf_symtab_skippable).
This representation is compact, but has one problem: if libctf somehow
gets confused about the st_type of a symbol, it'll stick an entry into
the function symtypetab when it should put it into the object
symtypetab, or vice versa, and *every symbol from that one on* will have
the wrong CTF type because it's actually looking up the type for a
different symbol.
And we have just such a bug. ctf_link_add_strtab was not taking the
refcounts of strings into consideration, so even strings that had been
eliminated from the strtab by virtue of being in objects eliminated via
--as-needed etc were being reported. This is harmful because it can
lead to multiple strings with the same apparent offset, and if the last
duplicate to be reported relates to an eliminated symbol, we look up the
wrong symbol from the input and gets its type wrong: if it's unlucky and
the eliminated symbol is also of the wrong st_type, we will end up with
a corrupted symtypetab.
Thankfully the wrong-st_type case is already diagnosed by a
this-can-never-happen paranoid warning:
CTF warning: Symbol 61a added to CTF as a function but is of type 1
or the converse
* CTF warning: Symbol a3 added to CTF as a data object but is of type 2
so at least we can tell when the corruption has spread to more than one
symbol's type.
Skipping zero-refcounted strings is easy: teach _bfd_elf_strtab_str to
skip them, and ldelf_ctf_strtab_iter_cb to loop over skipped strings
until it falls off the end or finds one that isn't skipped.

Undefined weak symbols with non-default visibility are seen as local
by SYMBOL_REFERENCES_LOCAL. This stops a got indirect to relative
optimisation for them, so that pies and dlls don't get non-zero values
when loading somewhere other than the address they are linked at
(which always happens). The optimisation could be allowed for pdes,
but I thought it best not to allow it there too.

When --gc-sections is in effect, a reference from a retained section
to __start_SECNAME or __stop_SECNAME causes all input sections named
SECNAME to also be retained, if SECNAME is representable as a C
identifier and either __start_SECNAME or __stop_SECNAME is synthesized
by the linker. Add an option to disable that feature, effectively
ignoring any relocation that references a synthesized linker defined
__start_ or __stop_ symbol.

This makes IR objects use the same logic as normal objects with
respect to what sort of ref/def makes an as-needed library needed.
Testing the binding of the definition is just plain wrong. What
matters is the binding of the reference.
