Commit 04f096fb9e25 ("Move the xc16x target to the obsolete list") moved the architecture from the "obsolete but still available" to the "obsolete / support removed" list in config.bfd, making the architecture impossible to enable (except maybe via "enable everything" options").

2022-06-27PowerPC64 .branch_lt addressAlan Modra2-3/+3
.branch_lt is really an extension of .plt, as is .iplt. We'd like all of the PLT sections to be fixed relative to .TOC. after stub sizing, because changes in offset to PLT entries might mean a change in stub sizes. When -z relro, the relro layout does this by laying out sections from the end of the relro segment. So for example, a change in .eh_frame (which happens after stub sizing) will keep the same GOT to PLT offset when -z relro. Not so when -z norelro, because then the usual forward layout of section is done and .got is more aligned than .branch_lt. * emulparams/elf64ppc.sh: Set .branch_lt address fixed relative to .got. * testsuite/ld-powerpc/elfv2exe.d: Adjust to suit.
2022-06-27-z relro relaxation and ld script SIZEOFAlan Modra8-26/+33
A number of targets use assignments like: . = DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END (SIZEOF (.got.plt) >= 12 ? 12 : 0, .); (from i386) in linker scripts to put the end of the relro segment past the header in .got.plt. Examination of testcases like those edited by this patch instead sees the end of the relro segment being placed at the start of .got.plt. For the i386 pie1 test: [ 9] .got.plt PROGBITS 00002000 001000 00000c 04 WA 0 0 4 GNU_RELRO 0x000f90 0x00001f90 0x00001f90 0x00070 0x00070 R 0x1 A map file shows: .dynamic 0x0000000000001f90 0x70 *(.dynamic) .dynamic 0x0000000000001f90 0x70 tmpdir/pie1.o 0x0000000000001f90 _DYNAMIC .got 0x0000000000002000 0x0 *(.got) .got 0x0000000000002000 0x0 tmpdir/pie1.o *(.igot) 0x0000000000002ff4 . = DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END (., (SIZEOF (.got.plt) >= 0xc)?0xc:0x0) .got.plt 0x0000000000002000 0xc *(.got.plt) .got.plt 0x0000000000002000 0xc tmpdir/pie1.o 0x0000000000002000 _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ The DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END value in the map file is weird too.

2022-06-25arm: Define elf_backend_extern_protected_data to 0 [PR 18705]Fangrui Song1-1/+1
Similar to commit 4fb55bf6a9606eb7b626c30a9f4e71d6c2d4fbb2 for aarch64. Commit b68a20d6675f1360ea4db50a9835c073675b9889 changed ld to produce R_ARM_GLOB_DAT but that defeated the purpose of protected visibility as an optimization. Restore the previous behavior (which matches ld.lld) by defining elf_backend_extern_protected_data to 0.
2022-06-23aarch64: Allow PC-relative relocations against protected STT_FUNC for -sharedFangrui Song3-0/+19
__attribute__((visibility("protected"))) void *foo() { return (void *)foo; } gcc -fpic -shared -fuse-ld=bfd fails with the confusing diagnostic: relocation R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21 against symbol `foo' which may bind externally can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC Call _bfd_elf_symbol_refs_local_p with local_protected==true to suppress the error. The new behavior matches gold and ld.lld. Note: if some code tries to use direct access relocations to take the address of foo (likely due to -fno-pic), the pointer equality will break, but the error should be reported on the executable link, not on the innocent shared object link. glibc 2.36 will give a warning at relocation resolving time.
2022-06-23aarch64: Define elf_backend_extern_protected_data to 0 [PR 18705]Fangrui Song1-1/+1
Follow-up to commit 90b7a5df152a64d2bea20beb438e8b81049a5c30 ("aarch64: Disallow copy relocations on protected data"). Commit 32f573bcb3aaa1c9defcad79dbb5851fcc02ae2d changed ld to produce R_AARCH64_GLOB_DAT but that defeated the purpose of protected visibility as an optimization. Restore the previous behavior (which matches ld.lld) by defining elf_backend_extern_protected_data to 0.
2022-06-22aarch64: Disallow copy relocations on protected dataFangrui Song3-0/+19
If an executable has copy relocations for extern protected data, that can only work if the shared object containing the definition is built with assumptions (a) the compiler emits GOT-generating relocations (b) the linker produces R_*_GLOB_DAT instead of R_*_RELATIVE. Otherwise the shared object uses its own definition directly and the executable accesses a stale copy. Note: the GOT relocations defeat the purpose of protected visibility as an optimization, and it turns out this never worked perfectly. glibc 2.36 will warn on copy relocations on protected data. Let's produce a warning at link time, matching ld.lld which has been used on many aarch64 OSes. Note: x86 requires GNU_PROPERTY_NO_COPY_ON_PROTECTED to have the error. This is to largely due to GCC 5's "x86-64: Optimize access to globals in PIE with copy reloc" which started to use direct access relocations for external data symbols in -fpie mode. GCC's aarch64 port does not have the change. Nowadays with most builds switching to -fpie/-fpic, aarch64 mostly doesn't need to worry about copy relocations. So for aarch64 we simply don't check GNU_PROPERTY_NO_COPY_ON_PROTECTED.

2022-06-14BFD_RELOC_MIPS_16Alan Modra2-9/+6
MIPS should not be using BFD_RELOC_16 for its R_MIPS_16 relocation, since R_MIPS_16 specifies a 16-bit field in a 32-bit word. BFD_RELOC_16, emitted by generic code to handle fixups on 16-bit data directives, expects fixups to operate on the whole of a 16-bit word. This patch corrects the problem by using BFD_RELOC_MIPS_16, a new bfd reloc that is used to generate R_MIPS_16. BFD_RELOC_16 is handled in md_apply_fix for cases where the fixup can be applied at assembly time. Like BFD_RELOC_8, BFD_RELOC_16 now has no corresponding object file relocation, and thus .half, .hword, .short and .dc.w must be resolved at assembly time. BFD_RELOC_MIPS_REL16 is removed by this patch since it isn't used.

2022-05-27opcodes/i386: remove trailing whitespace from insns with zero operandsAndrew Burgess67-164/+164
While working on another patch[1] I had need to touch this code in i386-dis.c: ins->obufp = ins->mnemonicendp; for (i = strlen (ins->obuf) + prefix_length; i < 6; i++) oappend (ins, " "); oappend (ins, " "); (*ins->info->fprintf_styled_func) (ins->info->stream, dis_style_mnemonic, "%s", ins->obuf); What this code does is add whitespace after the instruction mnemonic and before the instruction operands. The problem I ran into when working on this code can be seen by assembling this input file: .text nop retq Now, when I disassemble, here's the output. I've replaced trailing whitespace with '_' so that the issue is clearer: Disassembly of section .text: 0000000000000000 <.text>: 0: 90 nop 1: c3 retq___ Notice that there's no trailing whitespace after 'nop', but there are three spaces after 'retq'! What happens is that instruction mnemonics are emitted into a buffer instr_info::obuf, then instr_info::mnemonicendp is setup to point to the '\0' character at the end of the mnemonic. When we emit the whitespace, this is then added starting at the mnemonicendp position. Lets consider 'retq', first the buffer is setup like this: 'r' 'e' 't' 'q' '\0' Then we add whitespace characters at the '\0', converting the buffer to this: 'r' 'e' 't' 'q' ' ' ' ' ' ' '\0' However, 'nop' is actually an alias for 'xchg %rax,%rax', so, initially, the buffer is setup like this: 'x' 'c' 'h' 'g' '\0' Then in NOP_Fixup we spot that we have an instruction that is an alias for 'nop', and adjust the buffer to this: 'n' 'o' 'p' '\0' '\0' The second '\0' is left over from the original buffer contents. However, when we rewrite the buffer, we don't afjust mnemonicendp, which still points at the second '\0' character. Now, when we insert whitespace we get: 'n' 'o' 'p' '\0' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' '\0' Notice the whitespace is inserted after the first '\0', so, when we print the buffer, the whitespace is not printed. The fix for this is pretty easy, I can change NOP_Fixup to adjust mnemonicendp, but now a bunch of tests start failing, we now produce whitespace after the 'nop', which the tests don't expect. So, I could update the tests to expect the whitespace.... ...except I'm not a fan of trailing whitespace, so I'd really rather not. Turns out, I can pretty easily update the whitespace emitting code to spot instructions that have zero operands and just not emit any whitespace in this case. So this is what I've done. I've left in the fix for NOP_Fixup, I think updating mnemonicendp is probably a good thing, though this is not really required any more. I've then updated all the tests that I saw failing to adjust the expected patterns to account for the change in whitespace. [1] https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-April/120610.html

When two types conflict and they are not types which can have forwards (say, two arrays of different sizes with the same name in two different TUs) the CTF deduplicator uses a popularity contest to decide what to do: the type cited by the most other types ends up put into the shared dict, while the others are relegated to per-CU child dicts. This works well as long as one type *is* most popular -- but what if there is a tie? If several types have the same popularity count, we end up picking the first we run across and promoting it, and unfortunately since we are working over a dynhash in essentially arbitrary order, this means we promote a random one. So multiple runs of ld with the same inputs can produce different outputs! All the outputs are valid, but this is still undesirable. Adjust things to use the same strategy used to sort types on the output: when there is a tie, always put the type that appears in a CU that appeared earlier on the link line (and if there is somehow still a tie, which should be impossible, pick the type with the lowest type ID). Add a testcase -- and since this emerged when trying out extern arrays, check that those work as well (this requires a newer GCC, but since all GCCs that can emit CTF at all are unreleased this is probably OK as well). Fix up one testcase that has slight type ordering changes as a result of this change. libctf/ChangeLog: * ctf-dedup.c (ctf_dedup_detect_name_ambiguity): Use cd_output_first_gid to break ties. ld/ChangeLog: * testsuite/ld-ctf/array-conflicted-ordering.d: New test, using... * testsuite/ld-ctf/array-char-conflicting-1.c: ... this... * testsuite/ld-ctf/array-char-conflicting-2.c: ... and this. * testsuite/ld-ctf/array-extern.d: New test, using... * testsuite/ld-ctf/array-extern.c: ... this. * testsuite/ld-ctf/conflicting-typedefs.d: Adjust for ordering changes.
