/* ELF executable support for BFD.
   Copyright 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

   Written by Fred Fish @ Cygnus Support, from information published
   in "UNIX System V Release 4, Programmers Guide: ANSI C and
   Programming Support Tools".  Sufficient support for gdb.

   Rewritten by Mark Eichin @ Cygnus Support, from information
   published in "System V Application Binary Interface", chapters 4
   and 5, as well as the various "Processor Supplement" documents
   derived from it. Added support for assembler and other object file
   utilities.  Further work done by Ken Raeburn (Cygnus Support), Michael
   Meissner (Open Software Foundation), and Peter Hoogenboom (University
   of Utah) to finish and extend this.

/* Problems and other issues to resolve.

   (1)	BFD expects there to be some fixed number of "sections" in
        the object file.  I.E. there is a "section_count" variable in the
	bfd structure which contains the number of sections.  However, ELF
	supports multiple "views" of a file.  In particular, with current
	implementations, executable files typically have two tables, a
	program header table and a section header table, both of which
	partition the executable.

	In ELF-speak, the "linking view" of the file uses the section header
	table to access "sections" within the file, and the "execution view"
	uses the program header table to access "segments" within the file.
	"Segments" typically may contain all the data from one or more
	"sections".

	Note that the section header table is optional in ELF executables,
	but it is this information that is most useful to gdb.  If the
	section header table is missing, then gdb should probably try
	to make do with the program header table.  (FIXME)

   (2)  The code in this file is compiled twice, once in 32-bit mode and
	once in 64-bit mode.  More of it should be made size-independent
	and moved into elf.c.

   (3)	ELF section symbols are handled rather sloppily now.  This should
	be cleaned up, and ELF section symbols reconciled with BFD section
	symbols.

   (4)  We need a published spec for 64-bit ELF.  We've got some stuff here
	that we're using for SPARC V9 64-bit chips, but don't assume that
	it's cast in stone.

   generate the names segment<NUM>a and segment<NUM>b.

   Note that some program segments may have a file size that is different than
   (less than) the memory size.  All this means is that at execution the
   system must allocate the amount of memory specified by the memory size,
   but only initialize it with the first "file size" bytes read from the
   file.  This would occur for example, with program segments consisting
   of combined data+bss.

   To handle the above situation, this routine generates TWO bfd sections
   for the single program segment.  The first has the length specified by
   the file size of the segment, and the second has the length specified
   by the difference between the two sizes.  In effect, the segment is split
   into it's initialized and uninitialized parts.

   without any interpretation of their contents.  With just this support,
   the bfd client will have to interpret the structures itself.  Even with
   /proc support, it might want these full structures for it's own reasons.

   In the second level of support, where HAVE_PROCFS is defined, bfd will
   pick apart the structures to gather some additional information that
   clients may want, such as the general register set, the name of the
   exec'ed file and its arguments, the signal (if any) that caused the

/* Add symbols from an ELF archive file to the linker hash table.  We
   don't use _bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols because of a
   problem which arises on UnixWare.  The UnixWare libc.so is an
   archive which includes an entry libc.so.1 which defines a bunch of
   symbols.  The libc.so archive also includes a number of other
   object files, which also define symbols, some of which are the same
   as those defined in libc.so.1.  Correct linking requires that we
   consider each object file in turn, and include it if it defines any
   symbols we need.  _bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols does not do
   this; it looks through the list of undefined symbols, and includes
   any object file which defines them.  When this algorithm is used on
   UnixWare, it winds up pulling in libc.so.1 early and defining a
   bunch of symbols.  This means that some of the other objects in the
   archive are not included in the link, which is incorrect since they
   precede libc.so.1 in the archive.

   Fortunately, ELF archive handling is simpler than that done by
   _bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols, which has to allow for a.out
   oddities.  In ELF, if we find a symbol in the archive map, and the
   symbol is currently undefined, we know that we must pull in that
   object file.

   Unfortunately, we do have to make multiple passes over the symbol
   table until nothing further is resolved.  */

     the real symbol is not itself defined by a regular object file,
     then get a good value for the real definition.  We handle the
     real symbol first, for the convenience of the backend routine.

     Note that there is a confusing case here.  If the real definition
     is defined by a regular object file, we don't get the real symbol
     from the dynamic object, but we do get the weak symbol.  If the
     processor backend uses a COPY reloc, then if some routine in the
     dynamic object changes the real symbol, we will not see that
     change in the corresponding weak symbol.  This is the way other
     ELF linkers work as well, and seems to be a result of the shared
     library model.

     I will clarify this issue.  Most SVR4 shared libraries define the
     variable _timezone and define timezone as a weak synonym.  The
     tzset call changes _timezone.  If you write
       extern int timezone;
       int _timezone = 5;
       int main () { tzset (); printf ("%d %d\n", timezone, _timezone); }
     you might expect that, since timezone is a synonym for _timezone,
     the same number will print both times.  However, if the processor
     backend uses a COPY reloc, then actually timezone will be copied
     into your process image, and, since you define _timezone
     yourself, _timezone will not.  Thus timezone and _timezone will
     wind up at different memory locations.  The tzset call will set
     _timezone, leaving timezone unchanged.  */
