This commit fixes a compilation failure in a couple of libctf files
due to the use of EOVERFLOW and ENOTSUP, which are not defined
when compiling on MinGW.
libctf/ChangeLog:
PR binutils/25155:
* ctf-create.c (EOVERFLOW): If not defined by system header,
redirect to ERANGE as a poor man's substitute.
* ctf-subr.c (ENOTSUP): If not defined, use ENOSYS instead.

The recent commit "libctf, binutils: support CTF archives like objdump"
broke opening of CTF archives on big-endian platforms.
This didn't affect anyone much before now because the linker never
emitted CTF archives because it wasn't detecting ambiguous types
properly: now it does, and this bug becomes obvious.
Fix trivial.
libctf/
* ctf-archive.c (ctf_arc_bufopen): Endian-swap the archive magic
number if needed.

This fairly intricate commit connects up the CTF linker machinery (which
operates in terms of ctf_archive_t's on ctf_link_inputs ->
ctf_link_outputs) to the deduplicator (which operates in terms of arrays
of ctf_file_t's, all the archives exploded).
The nondeduplicating linker is retained, but is not called unless the
CTF_LINK_NONDEDUP flag is passed in (which ld never does), or the
environment variable LD_NO_CTF_DEDUP is set. Eventually, once we have
confidence in the much-more-complex deduplicating linker, I hope the
nondeduplicating linker can be removed.
In brief, what this does is traverses each input archive in
ctf_link_inputs, opening every member (if not already open) and tying
child dicts to their parents, shoving them into an array and
constructing a corresponding parents array that tells the deduplicator
which dict is the parent of which child. We then call ctf_dedup and
ctf_dedup_emit with that array of inputs, taking the outputs that result
and putting them into ctf_link_outputs where the rest of the CTF linker
expects to find them, then linking in the variables just as is done by
the nondeduplicating linker.
It also implements much of the CU-mapping side of things. The problem
CU-mapping introduces is that if you map many input CUs into one output,
this is saying that you want many translation units to produce at most
one child dict if conflicting types are found in any of them. This
means you can suddenly have multiple distinct types with the same name
in the same dict, which libctf cannot really represent because it's not
something you can do with C translation units.
The deduplicator machinery already committed does as best it can with
these, hiding types with conflicting names rather than making child
dicts out of them: but we still need to call it. This is done similarly
to the main link, taking the inputs (one CU output at a time),
deduplicating them, taking the output and making it an input to the
final link. Two (significant) optimizations are done: we share atoms
tables between all these links and the final link (so e.g. all type hash
values are shared, all decorated type names, etc); and any CU-mapped
links with only one input (and no child dicts) doesn't need to do
anything other than renaming the CU: the CU-mapped link phase can be
skipped for it. Put together, large CU-mapped links can save 50% of
their memory usage and about as much time (and the memory usage for
CU-mapped links is significant, because all those output CUs have to
have all their types stored in memory all at once).

This adds the core deduplicator that the ctf_link machinery calls
(possibly repeatedly) to link the CTF sections: it takes an array
of input ctf_file_t's and another array that indicates which entries in
the input array are parents of which other entries, and returns an array
of outputs. The first output is always the ctf_file_t on which
ctf_link/ctf_dedup/etc was called: the other outputs are child dicts
that have the first output as their parent.

off by default, which lets you configure in expensive internal

The CTF variables section (containing variables that have no
corresponding symtab entries) can cause the string table to get very
voluminous if the names of variables are long. Some callers want to
filter out particular variables they know they won't need.
So add a "variable filter" callback that does that: it's passed the name
of the variable and a corresponding ctf_file_t / ctf_id_t pair, and
should return 1 to filter it out.
ld doesn't use this machinery yet, but we could easily add it later if
desired. (But see later for a commit that turns off CTF variable-
section linking in ld entirely by default.)

When we link a CTF variable, we check to see if it already exists in the
parent dict first: if it does, and it has a type the same as the type we
would populate it with, we assume we don't need to do anything:
otherwise, we populate it in a per-CU child.
Or that's what we should be doing. Instead, we check if the type is the
same as the type in *source dict*, which is going to be a completely
different value! So we end up concluding all variables are conflicting,
bloating up output possibly quite a lot (variables aren't big in and of
themselves, but each drags around a strtab entry, and CTF dicts in a CTF
archive do not share their strtabs -- one of many problems with CTF
archives as presently constituted.)
Fix trivial: check the right type.
libctf/
* ctf-link.c (ctf_link_one_variable): Check the dst_type for
conflicts, not the source type.

Now a bunch of stuff that doesn't apply to ld or any normal use of
libctf, piled into one commit so that it's easier to ignore.
The cu-mapping machinery associates incoming compilation unit names with
outgoing names of CTF dictionaries that should correspond to them, for
non-gdb CTF consumers that would like to group multiple TUs into a
single child dict if conflicting types are found in it (the existing use
case is one kernel module, one child CTF dict, even if the kernel module
is composed of multiple CUs).
The upcoming deduplicator needs to track not only the mapping from
incoming CU name to outgoing dict name, but the inverse mapping from
outgoing dict name to incoming CU name, so it can work over every CTF
dict we might see in the output and link into it.
So rejig the ctf-link machinery to do that. Simultaneously (because
they are closely associated and were written at the same time), we add a
new CTF_LINK_EMPTY_CU_MAPPINGS flag to ctf_link, which tells the
ctf_link machinery to create empty child dicts for each outgoing CU
mapping even if no CUs that correspond to it exist in the link. This is
a bit (OK, quite a lot) of a waste of space, but some existing consumers
require it. (Nobody else should use it.)
Its value is not consecutive with existing CTF_LINK flag values because
we're about to add more flags that are conceptually closer to the
existing ones than this one is.

This rather large and intertwined pile of changes does three things:
First, it transitions from dprintf to ctf_err_warn for things the user might
care about: this one file is the major impetus for the ctf_err_warn
infrastructure, because things like file names are crucial in linker
error messages, and errno values are utterly incapable of
communicating them
Second, it stabilizes the ctf_link APIs: you can now call
ctf_link_add_ctf without a CTF argument (only a NAME), to lazily
ctf_open the file with the given NAME when needed, and close it as soon
as possible, to save memory. This is not an API change because a null
CTF argument was prohibited before now.
Since getting CTF directly from files uses ctf_open, passing in only a
NAME requires use of libctf, not libctf-nobfd. The linker's behaviour
is unchanged, as it still passes in a ctf_archive_t as before.
This also let us fix a leak: we were opening ctf_archives and their
containing ctf_files, then only closing the files and leaving the
archives open.
Third, this commit restructures the ctf_link_in_member argument used by
the CTF linking machinery and adjusts its users accordingly.
We drop two members:
- arcname, which is difficult to construct and then only used in error
messages (that were only dprintf()ed, so never seen!)
- share_mode, since we store the flags passed to ctf_link (including the
share mode) in a new ctf_file_t.ctf_link_flags to help dedup get hold
of it
We rename others whose existing names were fairly dreadful:
- done_main_member -> done_parent, using consistent terminology for .ctf
as the parent of all archive members
- main_input_fp -> in_fp_parent, likewise
- file_name -> in_file_name, likewise
We add one new member, cu_mapped.
Finally, we move the various frees of things like mapping table data to
the top-level ctf_link, since deduplicating links will want to do that
too.

This utility function is almost useless (all it does is casts the result
of a strerror) but has a seriously confusing name. Over and over again
I have accidentally called it instead of ctf_errmsg, and hidden a
time-bomb for myself in a hard-to-test error-handling path: since
ctf_strerror is just a strerror wrapper, it cannot handle CTF errnos,
unlike ctf_errmsg. It's astonishingly lucky that none of these errors
have crept into any commits to date.
Fuse it into ctf_errmsg and drop it.

When you link TUs that contain conflicting types together, the resulting
CTF section is an archive containing many CTF dicts. These dicts appear
in ctf_link_outputs of the shared dict, with each ctf_import'ing that
shared dict. ctf_importing a dict bumps its refcount to stop it going
away while it's in use -- but if the shared dict (whose refcount is
bumped) has the child dict (doing the bumping) in its ctf_link_outputs,
we have a refcount loop, since the child dict only un-ctf_imports and
drops the parent's refcount when it is freed, but the child is only
freed when the parent's refcount falls to zero.
(In the future, this will be able to go wrong on the inputs too, when an
ld -r'ed deduplicated output with conflicts is relinked. Right now this
cannot happen because we don't ctf_import such dicts at all. This will
be fixed in a later commit in this series.)
Fix this by introducing an internal-use-only ctf_import_unref function
that imports a parent dict *witthout* bumping the parent's refcount, and
using it when we create per-CU outputs. This function is only safe to
use if you know the parent cannot go away while the child exists: but if
the parent *owns* the child, as here, this is necessarily true.
Record in the ctf_file_t whether a parent was imported via ctf_import or
ctf_import_unref, so that if you do another ctf_import later on (or a
ctf_import_unref) it can decide whether to drop the refcount of the
existing parent being replaced depending on which function you used to
import that one. Adjust ctf_serialize so that rather than doing a
ctf_import (which is wrong if the original import was
ctf_import_unref'fed), we just copy the parent field and refcount over
and forcibly flip the unref flag on on the old copy we are going to
discard.
ctf_file_close also needs a bit of tweaking to only close the parent if
it was not imported with ctf_import_unref: while we're at it, guard
against repeated closes with a refcount of zero and stop them causing
double-frees, even if destruction of things freed *inside*
ctf_file_close cause such recursion.
Verified no leaks or accesses to freed memory after all of this with
valgrind. (It was leak-happy before.)

The name was just annoyingly long and I kept misspelling it.
It's also a bad name: it's not a mapping the type might be *used* in a

This is a perfectly possible case, and half of ctf_bfdopen_ctfsect
handled it fine. The other half hit a divide by zero or two before we
got that far, and had no code path to load the strtab from anywhere
in the absence of a symtab to point at it in any case.
So, as a fallback, if there is no symtab, try loading ".strtab"
explicitly by name, like we used to before we started looking for the
strtab the symtab used.
Of course, such a strtab is not kept hold of by BFD, so this means we
have to bring back the code to possibly explicitly free the strtab that
we read in.

Now that we can have slices of anything terminating in an int, we must
dump things accordingly, or slices of typedefs appear as
c5b: __u8 -> 16c: __u8 -> 78: short unsigned int (size 0x2)
which is unhelpful. If things *are* printed as slices, the name is
missing:
a15: [slice 0x8:0x4]-> 16c: __u8 -> 78: short unsigned int (size 0x2)
And struct members give no clue they're a slice at all, which is a shame
since bitfields are the major use of this type kind:
[0x8] (ID 0xa15) (kind 10) __u8 dst_reg
Fix things so that everything slicelike or integral gets its encoding
printed, and everything with a name gets the name printed:
a15: __u8 [slice 0x8:0x4] (size 0x1) -> 1ff: __u8 (size 0x1) -> 37: unsigned char [0x0:0x8] (size 0x1)
[0x0] (ID 0xa15) (kind 10) __u8:4 (aligned at 0x1, format 0x2, offset:bits 0x8:0x4)
Bitfield struct members get a technically redundant but much
easier-to-understand dumping now:
[0x0] (ID 0x80000005) (kind 6) struct bpf_insn (aligned at 0x1)
[0x0] (ID 0x222) (kind 10) __u8 code (aligned at 0x1)
[0x8] (ID 0x1e9e) (kind 10) __u8 dst_reg:4 (aligned at 0x1, format 0x2, offset:bits 0x8:0x4)
[0xc] (ID 0x1e46) (kind 10) __u8 src_reg:4 (aligned at 0x1, format 0x2, offset:bits 0xc:0x4)
[0x10] (ID 0xf35) (kind 10) __s16 off (aligned at 0x2)
[0x20] (ID 0x1718) (kind 10) __s32 imm (aligned at 0x4)
This also fixes one place where a failure to format a type would be

If we get an error emitting a single type, variable, or label, right now
we emit the error into the ctf_dprintf stream and propagate the error
all the way up the stack, causing the entire output to be silently
truncated (unless libctf debugging is on).
Instead, emit an error and keep going. (This makes sense for this use
case: if you're dumping types and a type is corrupted, you want to
know!)
Not all instances of this are fixed in this commit, only ones associated

Somehow this never got implemented, which makes debugging any kind of
bug that has to do with argument types fantastically confusing, because
it *looks* like the func type takes no arguments though in fact it does.
This also lets us simplify the dumper slightly (and introduces our first
uses of ctf_assert and ctf_err_warn: there will be many more).
ctf_type_aname dumps function types without including the function
pointer name itself: ctf_dump search-and-replaces it in. This seems to
give the nicest-looking results for existing users of both, even if it

This commit adds a long-missing piece of infrastructure to libctf: the
ability to report errors and warnings using all the power of printf,
rather than being restricted to one errno value. Internally, libctf
calls ctf_err_warn() to add errors and warnings to a list: a new
iterator ctf_errwarning_next() then consumes this list one by one and
hands it to the caller, which can free it. New errors and warnings are
added until the list is consumed by the caller or the ctf_file_t is
closed, so you can dump them at intervals. The caller can of course
choose to print only those warnings it wants. (I am not sure whether we
want objdump, readelf or ld to print warnings or not: right now I'm
printing them, but maybe we only want to print errors? This entirely
depends on whether warnings are voluminous things describing e.g. the
inability to emit single types because of name clashes or something.
There are no users of this infrastructure yet, so it's hard to say.)
There is no internationalization here yet, but this at least adds a
place where internationalization can be added, to one of
ctf_errwarning_next or ctf_err_warn.
We also provide a new ctf_assert() function which uses this
infrastructure to provide non-fatal assertion failures while emitting an
assert-like string to the caller: to save space and avoid needlessly
duplicating unchanging strings, the assertion test is inlined but the
print-things-out failure case is not. All assertions in libctf will be
converted to use this machinery in future commits and propagate
assertion-failure errors up, so that the linker in particular cannot be
killed by libctf assertion failures when it could perfectly well just
print warnings and drop the CTF section.

When wrapping qsort_r on a system like FreeBSD on which the compar
argument comes first, we wrap the passed arg in a thunk so we can pass
down both the caller-supplied comparator function and its argument. We

is basically random nonsense on the stack from the point of view of the
caller of qsort_r.

dynhashes can be iterated over in sorted order, which works by

The libctf machinery currently only provides one way to iterate over its
data structures: ctf_*_iter functions that take a callback and an arg
and repeatedly call it.
This *works*, but if you are doing a lot of iteration it is really quite
inconvenient: you have to package up your local variables into
structures over and over again and spawn lots of little functions even
if it would be clearer in a single run of code. Look at ctf-string.c
for an extreme example of how unreadable this can get, with
three-line-long functions proliferating wildly.
The deduplicator takes this to the Nth level. It iterates over a whole
bunch of things: if we'd had to use _iter-class iterators for all of
them there would be twenty additional functions in the deduplicator
alone, for no other reason than that the iterator API requires it.
Let's do something better. strtok_r gives us half the design: generators
in a number of other languages give us the other half.
The *_next API allows you to iterate over CTF-like entities in a single
function using a normal while loop. e.g. here we are iterating over all
the types in a dict:
ctf_next_t *i = NULL;
int *hidden;
ctf_id_t id;
while ((id = ctf_type_next (fp, &i, &hidden, 1)) != CTF_ERR)
{
/* do something with 'hidden' and 'id' */
}
if (ctf_errno (fp) != ECTF_NEXT_END)
/* iteration error */
Here we are walking through the members of a struct with CTF ID
'struct_type':
ctf_next_t *i = NULL;
ssize_t offset;
const char *name;
ctf_id_t membtype;
while ((offset = ctf_member_next (fp, struct_type, &i, &name,
&membtype)) >= 0
{
/* do something with offset, name, and membtype */
}
if (ctf_errno (fp) != ECTF_NEXT_END)
/* iteration error */
Like every other while loop, this means you have access to all the local
variables outside the loop while inside it, with no need to tiresomely
package things up in structures, move the body of the loop into a
separate function, etc, as you would with an iterator taking a callback.
ctf_*_next allocates 'i' for you on first entry (when it must be NULL),
and frees and NULLs it and returns a _next-dependent flag value when the
iteration is over: the fp errno is set to ECTF_NEXT_END when the
iteartion ends normally. If you want to exit early, call
ctf_next_destroy on the iterator. You can copy iterators using
ctf_next_copy, which copies their current iteration position so you can
remember loop positions and go back to them later (or ctf_next_destroy
them if you don't need them after all).
Each _next function returns an always-likely-to-be-useful property of
the thing being iterated over, and takes pointers to parameters for the
others: with very few exceptions all those parameters can be NULLs if
you're not interested in them, so e.g. you can iterate over only the
offsets of members of a structure this way:
while ((offset = ctf_member_next (fp, struct_id, &i, NULL, NULL)) >= 0)
If you pass an iterator in use by one iteration function to another one,
you get the new error ECTF_NEXT_WRONGFUN back; if you try to change
ctf_file_t in mid-iteration, you get ECTF_NEXT_WRONGFP back.
Internally the ctf_next_t remembers the iteration function in use,
various sizes and increments useful for almost all iterations, then
uses unions to overlap the actual entities being iterated over to keep
ctf_next_t size down.
Iterators available in the public API so far (all tested in actual use

There are many places in the deduplicator which use hashtables as tiny
sets: keys with no value (and usually, but not always, no freeing
function) often with only one or a few members. For each of these, even
after the last change to not store the freeing functions, we are storing
a little malloced block for each item just to track the key/value pair,
and a little malloced block for the hash table itself just to track the
freeing function because we can't use libiberty hashtab's freeing
function because we are using that to free the little malloced per-item
block.
If we only have a key, we don't need any of that: we can ditch the
per-malloced block because we don't have a value, and we can ditch the
per-hashtab structure because we don't need to independently track the
freeing functions since libiberty hashtab is doing it for us. That
means we don't need an owner field in the (now nonexistent) item block
either.
Roughly speaking, this datatype saves about 25% in time and 20% in peak
memory usage for normal links, even fairly big ones. So this might seem
redundant, but it's really worth it.
Instead of a _lookup function, a dynset has two distinct functions:
ctf_dynset_exists, which returns true or false and an optional pointer
to the set member, and ctf_dynhash_lookup_any, which is used if all
members of the set are expected to be equivalent and we just want *any*
member and we don't care which one.
There is no iterator in this set of functions, not because we don't
iterate over dynset members -- we do, a lot -- but because the iterator
here is a member of an entirely new family of much more convenient
iteration functions, introduced in the next commit.

The libctf dynhash hashtab abstraction supports per-hashtab arbitrary
key/item freeing functions -- but it also has a constant slot type that
holds both key and value requested by the user, so it needs to use its
own freeing function to free that -- and it has nowhere to store the
freeing functions the caller requested.
So it copies them into every hash item, bloating every slot, even though
all items in a given hash table must have the same key and value freeing
functions.
So point back to the owner using a back-pointer, but don't even spend
space in the item or the hashtab allocating those freeing functions
unless necessary: if none are needed, we can simply arrange to not pass
in ctf_dynhash_item_free as a del_f to hashtab_create_alloc, and none of
those fields will ever be accessed.
The only downside is that this makes the code sensitive to the order of
fields in the ctf_helem_t and ctf_hashtab_t: but the deduplicator
allocates so many hash tables that doing this alone cuts memory usage
during deduplication by about 10%. (libiberty hashtab itself has a lot
of per-hashtab bloat: in the future we might trim that down, or make a
trimmer version.)

Right now, if you insert a key/value pair into a dynhash, the old slot's
key is freed and the new one always assigned. This seemed sane to me
when I wrote it, but I got it wrong time and time again. It's much
less confusing to free the key passed in: if a key-freeing function
was passed, you are asserting that the dynhash owns the key in any
case, so if you pass in a key it is always buggy to assume it sticks
around. Freeing the old key means that you can't even safely look up a
key from out of a dynhash and hold on to it, because some other matching
key might force it to be freed at any time.
In the new model, you can always get a key out of a dynhash with
ctf_dynhash_lookup_kv and hang on to it until the kv-pair is actually
deleted from the dynhash. In the old model the pointer to the key might
be freed at any time if a matching key was inserted.

The deduplicator can emit enormous amounts of debugging output,
so much so that a later commit will introduce a new configure flag

The archive machinery mmap()s its archives when possible: so it arranges

It is perfectly valid C to say e.g.
typedef u64 int;
struct foo_t
{
const volatile u64 wibble:2;
};
i.e. bitfields have to be integral types, but they can be cv-qualified
integral types or typedefs of same, etc.
This is easy to fix: do a ctf_type_resolve_unsliced() at creation time
to ensure the ultimate type is integral, and ctf_type_resolve() at
lookup time so that if you somehow have e.g. a slice of a typedef of a
slice of a cv-qualified int, we pull the encoding that the topmost slice
is based on out of the subsidiary slice (and then modify it), not out of
the underlying int. (This last bit is rather academic right now, since
all slices override exactly the same properties of the underlying type,
but it's still the right thing to do.)
