2022-01-11ar: Add --thin for creating thin archivesFangrui Song1-0/+4
In many ar implementations (FreeBSD, elfutils, etc), -T has the X/Open System Interface specified semantics. Therefore -T for thin archives is not recommended for portability. -T is deprecated without diagnostics. PR binutils/28759 * ar.c (long_options): Add --thin. (usage) Add --thin. Deprecate -T without diagnostics. * doc/binutils.texi: Add doc. * NEWS: Mention --thin. * binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/ar.exp: Add tests.
2022-01-02Update year range in copyright notice of binutils filesAlan Modra1-1/+1
The result of running etc/update-copyright.py --this-year, fixing all the files whose mode is changed by the script, plus a build with --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes, then checking out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently. The copy of cgen was with commit d1dd5fcc38ead reverted as that commit breaks building of bfp opcodes files.
2021-11-23AArch64: Add support for AArch64 EFI (efi-*-aarch64).Tamar Christina1-0/+3
This adds support for efi-*-aarch64 by virtue of adding a new PEI target pei-aarch64-little. This is not a full target and only exists to support EFI at this time. This means that this target does not support relocation processing and is mostly a container format. This format has been added to elf based aarch64 targets such that efi images can be made natively on Linux. However this target is not valid for use with gas but only with objcopy. With these changes the resulting file is recognized as an efi image by third party tools: > pecli info hello.efi Metadata ================================================================================ MD5: 598c32a778b0f0deebe977fef8578c4e SHA1: 4580121edd5cb4dc40f51b28f171fd15250df84c SHA256: 3154bd7cf42433d1c957f6bf55a17ad8c57ed41b29df2d485703349fd6ff1d5c Imphash: Size: 47561 bytes Type: PE32+ executable (EFI application) (stripped to external PDB), for MS Windows Compile Time: 1970-01-01 00:00:00 (UTC - 0x0 ) Entry point: 0x2000 (section .text) Sections ================================================================================ Name RWX VirtSize VirtAddr RawAddr RawSize Entropy md5 .text R-X 0x5bb0 0x2000 0x400 0x5c00 6.39 551fbc264256a3f387de8a891500ae0d .reloc R-- 0xc 0x8000 0x6000 0x200 0.02 0c45f6d812d079821c1d54c09ab89e1d .data RW- 0x1d88 0x9000 0x6200 0x1e00 4.18 5d1137c09f01289dc62bf754f7290db3 .dynamic RW- 0xf0 0xb000 0x8000 0x200 0.34 5c94ed3206f05a277e6f04fbf131f131 .rela R-- 0xe58 0xc000 0x8200 0x1000 1.87 8b5c6bc30f3acb7ca7bf2e6789d68519 .dynsym R-- 0x138 0xd000 0x9200 0x200 0.96 bdcf5101da51aadc663ca8859f88138c Imports ================================================================================ Any magic number is based on the Microsoft PE specification [1].

2020-11-18Support SHF_GNU_RETAIN ELF section flagJozef Lawrynowicz1-0/+4
The SHF_GNU_RETAIN section flag is an extension to the GNU ELF OSABI. It is defined as follows: ========================================================= Section Attribute Flags +-------------------------------------+ | Name | Value | +-------------------------------------+ | SHF_GNU_RETAIN | 0x200000 (1 << 21) | +-------------------------------------+ SHF_GNU_RETAIN The link editor should not garbage collect the section. ========================================================= The .section directive accepts the "R" flag, which indicates SHF_GNU_RETAIN should be applied to the section. There is not a direct mapping of SHF_GNU_RETAIN to the BFD section flag SEC_KEEP.

2020-01-09Add support for debuginfod to the binutils (disable by default, enabled via ↵Aaron Merey1-0/+9
a configure time option). debuginfod is a lightweight web service that indexes ELF/DWARF debugging resources by build-id and serves them over HTTP. This patch enables objdump and readelf to query debuginfod servers when they are otherwise not able to find separate debug files. Binutils can be built with debuginfod using the --with-debuginfod configure option. This requires that libdebuginfod be installed and found at configure time. debuginfod is packaged with elfutils, starting with version 0.178. For more information see https://sourceware.org/elfutils/. toplevel* config/debuginfod.m4: New file. Add macro AC_DEBUGINFOD.

2019-05-28binutils: CTF support for objdump and readelfNick Alcock1-1/+4
This introduces CTF support for objdump and readelf. objdump has the following new arguments: --ctf=SECTION: display CTF in the given SECTION --ctf-parent=SECTION: name of CTF section that is the parent of this section readelf has the above, and these two as well: --ctf-symbols=SECTION: name of symbol table section (optional) --ctf-strings=SECTION: name of string table section (optional) (objdump can always use BFD machinery to determine the applicable string and symbol tables automatically, so these arguments are unnecessary.) Nearly all the work is done by the ctf_dump machinery in libctf: most of the remaining work is option-processing and section-reading, and thus is different for objdump and readelf: the minimal amount of similar code remaining is, in my view, too small to share, particularly given that objdump uses ctf_bfdopen() and readelf uses ctf_simple_open() since it doesn't have a bfd. I am not particularly satisfied with the way resources are freed in either of these (I was forced to do it at the top level, for lack of anywhere else to free resources allocated during option processing), but I can't see any better way to do it without introducing new infrastructure for no other purpose. There are essentially arbitrary ordering changes to the Makefile.in's order of libtool-related stuff that I can't get rid of, but they have no semantic effect. (It is possible that some hunks of these changes could be dropped, but that seems a bit risky to me.) binutils/ * objdump.c (ctf-api.h): New include. (dump_ctf_section_info): New variable.

2019-02-08binutils: Add new GNU format mode to `size` utilityAndrew Burgess1-0/+5
The size tool currently defaults to berkeley format output. However, this output format has a weird quirk, read-only data is counted against the text sections, not the data sections. The code offers no real explanation for why this is, but I'm reluctant to change it for two reasons, first, I'm assuming it probably makes sense in some case that I'm not thinking of (maybe a target where sections are not marked executable, and so there's no distinction between read-only data and code), and second, the code has been this way for at least 20 years, I worry that changing things now might cause more confusion than it solves. This commit then introduces a new output format for the size tool, this new format displays the results in a similar manor to the berkeley format, but counts read-only data in the data column, and only executable sections are counted in the text column. Given that this is a brand new output format I've gone ahead and simplified things a little, while the berkeley format displays the total twice, once in decimal and once in hex, the new display format just displays the total in decimal. Of course, there's still the '--radix' option which can be used to display all the results in hexadecimal or octal. I've called the new format 'gnu', so '--format=gnu' or '-G' are used to access it. binutils/ChangeLog: * size.c (berkeley_format): Delete. (enum output_format): New enum. (selected_output_format): New variable. (usage): Update to mention GNU format. (main): Update to extract options, and select format as needed. Handle GNU format where needed.
