(git commit 3dea8fca8b86) I disabled a then new linker feature that
removed empty PT_LOAD headers in cases where a user specified program
headers, and for objcopy. This can be a problem for objcopy/strip and
since objcopy operates on sections, any part of a PT_LOAD loading file
contents not covered by a section will be omitted anyway.

* elf.c (_bfd_elf_map_sections_to_segments): Pass remove_empty_load
as true to elf_modify_segment_map for objcopy/strip.

On big endian hosts (eg. s390x) the windmc tool fails to parse even
trivial files:
$ cat test.mc
;
$ ./binutils/windmc ./test.mc
In test.mc at line 1: parser: syntax error.
In test.mc at line 1: fatal: syntax error.
The tool starts by reading the input as Windows CP1252 and then
converting it internally into an array of UTF-16LE, which it then
processes as an array of unsigned short (typedef unichar).
There are lots of ways this is wrong, but in the specific case of big
endian machines the little endian pairs of bytes are byte-swapped.
For example, the ';' character in the input above is first converted
to UTF16-LE byte sequence { 0x3b, 0x00 }, which is then cast to
unsigned short. On a big endian machine the first unichar appears to
be 0x3b00. The lexer is unable to recognize this as the comment
character ((unichar)';') and so parsing fails.
The simple fix is to convert the input to UTF-16BE on big endian
machines (and do the reverse conversion when writing the output).

When a symbol is referred with %le_{hi20,lo12,add}_r, it's definitely a
TLS symbol and we should set its type to TLS in the symtab. Otherwise
when building Perl with gcc-14 -flto, we get:
/usr/bin/ld: PL_current_context: TLS definition in
./miniperl.ltrans0.ltrans.o section .tbss mismatches non-TLS reference
in ./miniperl.ltrans1.ltrans.o
A minimal reproducer:
$ cat t1.s
.section .tbss
.globl x
x: .word 0
$ cat t2.s
f:
lu12i.w $a0, %le_hi20_r(x)
add.d $a0, $a0, $tp, %le_add_r(x)
li.w $a1, 1
st.w $a1, $a0, %le_lo12_r(x)
$ gas/as-new t1.s -o t1.o
$ gas/as-new t2.s -o t2.o
$ ld/ld-new t1.o t2.o
ld/ld-new: x: TLS definition in t1.o section .tbss mismatches
non-TLS reference in t2.o
Unfortunately this was undetected before Binutils-2.42 release because
GCC < 14 does not use %le_*_r, and without LTO it's very rare to have a
TLS LE definition and its reference in two different translation units.
So this fix should be backported to Binutils-2.42 branch too.

Gcc may generate "\t.align\t%d,54525952,4\n" before commit
b20c7ee066cb7d952fa193972e8bc6362c6e4063. To write 54525952 (NOP) to object
file, we call s_align_ptwo (-4). It result in alignment padding must be a
multiple of 4 if .align has second parameter.
Use default s_align_ptwo for .align.
There are two issues causing 11 test failures:
1. The TLS desc tests are matching the entire disassemble of a linked
executable. But if ld is configured --enable-default-hash-style=gnu
(note that most modern distros use this option), the layout of the
linked executables will be different and the immediate operands in
the linked executables will also be different. So we add
"--hash-style=both" for these tests to cancel the effect of
--enable-default-hash-style=gnu, like [x86_64 mark-plt tests].
2. By default objdump disassemble uses [pseudo-instructions] so "addi.w"
is outputed as "li.w", causing mismatches in TLS relaxation tests.
We can turn off the pseudo-instruction usage in objdump using "-M
no-aliases" to fix them.

This matches the dependencies in the architecture, in LLVM, and even in the
original Binutils commit message that mistakenly included it only in armv9.4-a.
Commit f530d5f1bab6 ("Update x86/APX: VROUND{P,S}{S,D} can generally be
encoded") took care of only half of the remaining issue. Add #pass here
as well.
Before running our tests, we made a fake installation into ./tmpdir.
This installation changes libopcodes.la in the build area.
Gas testing may fail if gas and gprofng tests are run in parallel.
I create a script to run gprofng. Inside this script, LD_LIBRARY_PATH,
GPROFNG_SYSCONFDIR are set.
putenv_libcollector_ld_misc() first uses $GPROFNG_PRELOAD_LIBDIRS to create
directories for SP_COLLECTOR_LIBRARY_PATH ($SP_COLLECTOR_LIBRARY_PATH is used
to set up LD_PRELOAD).

VRNDSCALE{P,S}{S,D} is the AVX512 generalization of these AVX insns. As
long as the immediate has the top 4 bits clear, they are equivalent to
the earlier VEX-encoded insns, and hence can be used to permit use of
eGPR-s in the memory operand. Since this is the normal way of using
these insns, also alter the resulting diagnostic to complain about the
immediate, not the eGPR use.
