2 daysbinutils: testsuite: fix duplicate testnames in readelf.expRichard Earnshaw1-3/+1
There are two places in readelf.exp where we generate duplicate testnames. The first is due to calling readelf_find_size twice with the same iteration index (2). This is fixed by using 4 for the second instance. The other is at the end of readelf_thin_archive_test. This test calls readelf_test before unconditionally passing. It happens to construct exactly the same test name as readelf test (might not be a coincidence), so we end up with a duplicate test. But it seems wrong anyway to 'pass' a test that readelf_test might have failed, so simply delete this duplicate pass entry.
3 daysbinutils: testsuite: avoid dup names when using multiple as: directivesRichard Earnshaw1-11/+16
binutils tests support running a test with distinct options to the assembler by allowing #as: <optset-1> #as: <optset-2> But results in both test runs using the same test name in the summary file. This causes confusion if one test fails but the other doesn't (and GCC's compare_tests script will diagnose this as an error). To fix the ambiguity append the appropriate optset to the test name. We only do this if a test has multiple runs in this way to avoid causing every test result name to change.

A comment in display_relocations said "RELRS has been freed by dump_relr_relocations". Except that hadn't happened on all return paths.

10 daysnm: fix treating an ifunc symbol as a stab if '--ifunc-chars=--' is givenDmitry Klochkov2-3/+24
If an ifunc symbol is processed in print_symbol(), a 'type' field of a 'syminfo' structure is set to any character specified by a user with an '--ifunc-chars' option. But afterwards the 'type' field is used to check whether a symbol is a stab in print_symbol_info_{bsd,sysv}() functions in order to print additional stab related data. If the 'type' field equals '-', a symbol is treated as a stab. If '--ifunc-chars=--' is given, all ifunc symbols will be treated as stab symbols and uninitialized stab related fields of the 'syminfo' structure will be printed which can lead to segmentation fault. To fix this, check if a symbol is a stab before override the 'type' field. Also, add a test case for this fix. PR binutils/32556 * nm.c (extended_symbol_info): Add is_stab.

I can make it go away by specifying -I tekhex. The message is also untrue, as objcopy does in fact know the format of the input file. I think the message should be limited to ELF input files that are being handled by the elf64-little, elf64-big, elf32-little or elf32-big targets, due to libbfd being compiled with limited target support.

2025-08-19binutils: dwarf: fix display of large cfa_offsetIndu Bhagat1-4/+13
eh_frame textual dump was not correct when the cfa_offset is a large value. The reason is that the dumping code generally assumes the cfa_offset is an 'int'. cfa_offset values can be updated by various DWARF opcodes, like: - DW_CFA_def_cfa, DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset which bring unsigned leb128 cfa_offset - DW_CFA_def_cfa_sf, DW_CFA_def_cfa_offset_sf which bring signed leb128 cfa_offset Internally, the routines in dwarf.c keep the value as 'uint64_t cfa_offset'. That size of the datatype is expected to work for most of the real-world cases. Care, however, needs to be taken when it comes to the signedness of the value. Fix the buggy behavior by adding an additional field to track whether the value of cfa_offset is signed or unsigned and display accordingly for "frames-interp" output. The display of cfa_offset had issues in both "frames-interp" output (objdump -WF or do_debug_frames_interp) and the "frames" output. Add two new tests: cfi-common-10.s uses a large positive cfa_offset (with "frames output), and cfi-x86_64-2.s uses a negative cfa_offset (with "frames-interp" output). ChangeLog: * binutils/dwarf.c (frame_display_row): Update format string based on signedness. (display_debug_frames): Track signedness. Also fix display of cfa_offset using PRIu64 or PRId64 as applicable. * gas/testsuite/gas/cfi/cfi.exp: Add two new tests. * gas/testsuite/gas/cfi/cfi-common-10.d: New test. * gas/testsuite/gas/cfi/cfi-common-10.s: New test. * gas/testsuite/gas/cfi/cfi-x86_64-2.d: New test. * gas/testsuite/gas/cfi/cfi-x86_64-2.s: New test.

oss-fuzz generated a total length field of 32, when the header was 40 bytes. Subtracting gave -8ul for the remaining length.. I think we should be sanity checking the total length given in the header against the remaining buffer length and the size of the header each time get_version_header is called.

2025-08-16Make bfd_check_format better respect given targetAlan Modra4-6/+5
bfd_check_format currently does not take much notice of the target set in its abfd arg, merely checking that target first if target_defaulted is false. As the comment says this was due to complications with archive handling which I think was fixed in commit f832531609d0. It should now be possible to just check the given target, except for linker input files. This will speed checking the target of the first file in archives, which is done in the process of matching archive targets. This will no doubt expose some misuse of target options, as found in the binutils "efi app" tests. The stricter checking also exposed some errors. Cris targets gave "FAIL: objcopy decompress debug sections in archive (reason: unexpected output)" "FAIL: objcopy decompress debug sections in archive with zlib-gabi (reason: unexpected output)" without the bfd_generic_archive_p fix. cris has a default target of cris-aout which doesn't match objects for any of the cris-elf or cris-linux targets. The problem here was that checking the first object file in archives didn't match but a logic error there meant bfd_error_wrong_object_format wasn't returned as it should be. There was also a possibility of bfd_error_wrong_object_format persisting from one target check to the next. bfd/ * archive.c (bfd_generic_archive_p): Correct object in archive target test. * format.c (bfd_check_format_matches_lto): Try to match given target first even when target_defaulted is set.

2025-08-16archives and plugin targetAlan Modra4-34/+65
Automatically choosing "plugin" for the archive target when plugins are enabled can result in making archives as specified by the plugin target vec, ie. COFF style archives (also used by most ELF binutils targets). This is wrong for aix, hpux, vms, aout, macho and possibly other targets, if compatibility with target system archives matters. This patch removes archive support entirely from the plugin target. That means an archive will never get past bfd_check_format with a target of plugin_vec, even if it is opened using "plugin". Instead, archives will have their elements opened using the plugin target selected is such a way that the plugin target will be tried first in bfd_check_format and then continue to try other targets if that fails. The patch tries to avoid opening archives using "plugin" because that is guaranteed to fail the first target check in bfd_check_format, but mm.c still does so, and nested archives will also be opened using "plugin". The patch also fixes poor arsup.c plugin support. bfd/ * plugin.c (plugin_vec): Remove archive support. * configure.ac: Remove plugin archive warning, and don't disable plugins by default on anything but aout targets. * configure: Regenerate. binutils/ * bucomm.h (set_plugin_target): New inline function. * ar.c: Remove unneeded forward declarations.

2025-08-15bfd: have objcopy retain unknown ELF section flagsJan Beulich3-0/+22
Silently zapping them is certainly wrong. When they're not replaced due to user request, simply keeping them may not always be correct (we don't know what such a flag means, after all), but is certainly at least closer to having the output object still represent what the input object had. This introduces new binutils/ testsuite failures, but only for two targets where most of the tests there fail anyway (amdgcn-elf and nfp-elf), due to there not being an assembler available.
2025-08-14strip: Treat slim GCC/LLVM IR objects the sameH.J. Lu1-23/+9
Slim LLVM IR object is a standalone file whose first 4 bytes are 'B', 'C', 0xc0, 0xde. GCC IR object is regular ELF object with sections whose names start with .gnu.lto_.* or .gnu.debuglto_.*. GCC IR object uses a .gnu.lto_.lto.<some_hash> section to encode the LTO bytecode information: struct lto_section { int16_t major_version; int16_t minor_version; unsigned char slim_object; /* Flags is a private field that is not defined publicly. */ uint16_t flags; }; In slim GCC IR object, the slim_object field is non-zero. Strip should treat slim GCC/LLVM IR objects the same. Since strip won't change slim LLVM IR objects, it should leave slim GCC IR object unchanged even when asked to remove all IR objects: 1. Set the lto_type field to lto_slim_ir_object for slim LLVM IR object. 2. Always copy slim IR object as unknown object. bfd/ PR binutils/33271 * format.c (bfd_set_lto_type): Set the lto_type field to lto_slim_ir_object for slim LLVM IR object. binutils/ PR binutils/33271 * objcopy.c (lto_sections_removed): Removed.

2025-08-14objcopy/strip of IR files and is_strip_inputAlan Modra1-94/+85
This tidies objcopy/strip handling of IR objects, in the process of removing the unnecessary is_strip_input flag. The first thing I noticed when looking at is_strip_input code was that the abfd->my_archive test in bfd_check_format_matches meant that plugins were disabled when reading archive elements. We can instead disable plugins by setting bfd_no_plugin, so there doesn't seem to be a need for is_strip_input in objcopy.c:copy_archive. This isn't exactly the same, because bfd_no_plugin prevents the plugin target recognising archive elements in the bfd_check_format_matches loop over all targets as well as just the first !target_defaulted test. But that turns out to be fine. IR code is handled in copy_archive as for other unknown format files. In fact, the only need for the plugin target when copying archives is when reading symbols for the archive map. I've made that plain by moving the plugin target override and commenting on why it is really needed. So on to plain object files. Here, IR code is also copied unchanged, so there doesn't seem a need for the plugin target there either. It isn't quite so simple though, because the objcopy/strip code handling object files wants to verify the format of the object file. Allowing objcopy/strip to copy unknown format files would be a change in behaviour (and results in mmix testsuite fails, ld-mmix/b-badfil1 and others). However, always excluding the plugin target results in a fail of tests added in commit c2729c37f10a. So I've enabled a plugin format check only for files that are otherwise unrecognised, and commented why this is done. I question the need to objcopy LLVM bytecode files. bfd/ * bfd.c (struct bfd<is_strip_input>): Delete. * format.c (bfd_check_format_matches): Delete is_strip_input special case code. * bfd-in2.h: Regenerate. binutils/ * objcopy.c (copy_archive): Don't set is_strip_input.

2025-08-06Remove bfd_check_format_ltoAlan Modra1-19/+25
Tidy changes to bfd_check_format_matches made by commit 9b854f169df9 which added a bfd_plugin_specified_p test and commit f752be8f916e which added an lto_sections_removed arg. Both of these changes are unnecessary if plugin_format is set to bfd_plugin_no before calling bfd_check_format. bfd_plugin_no will prevent the plugin object_p function from returning a match (and in the first case from a segfault when loading plugins while a plugin is running). The plugin object_p function already protected itself from recursive calls by setting bfd_plugin_no before loading a plugin, but commit 9b854f169df9 opened new bfds so they were unprotected. It isn't strictly necessary to test for bfd_plugin_no in bfd_check_format_matches but I kept the check to minimise functional changes. Close inspection of the patch will notice I've added an is_linker_input test too. That also isn't strictly necessary, I think, but the match_count test was for the linker. See commit 999d6dff80fa.
