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).

Adds two new external authors to etc/update-copyright.py to cover
bfd/ax_tls.m4, and adds gprofng to dirs handled automatically, then
updates copyright messages as follows:
1) Update cgen/utils.scm emitted copyrights.
2) Run "etc/update-copyright.py --this-year" with an extra external
author I haven't committed, 'Kalray SA.', to cover gas testsuite
files (which should have their copyright message removed).
3) Build with --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes.
4) Check out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.

This adds a mingw target for aarch64, including windres and dlltool.

Using AS_IF rather than shell "if" is recommended for conditionals

any AC_REQUIREd autoconf macro expansions outside of the conditional.

This replaces dwarf_vma, dwarf_size_type and dwarf_signed_vma with
uint64_t and int64_t everywhere. The patch also gets rid of
DWARF_VMA_FMT since we can't use that with uint64_t, and all of the
configure support for deciding the flavour of HOST_WIDEST_INT.
dwarf_vmatoa also disappears, replacing most uses with one of
PRIx64, PRId64 or PRIu64. Printing of size_t and ptrdiff_t values
now use %z and %t rather than by casting to unsigned long. Also,
most warning messages that used 0x%lx or similar now use %#lx and a
few that didn't print the 0x hex prefix now also use %#. The patch
doesn't change normal readelf output, except in odd cases where values
previously might have been truncated.

The AMDGPU HSA OS ABI (code object v3 and above) defines the
NT_AMDGPU_METADATA ELF note [1]. The content is a msgpack object
describing, among other things, the kernels present in the code object
and how to call them.
I think it would be useful for readelf to be able to display the content
of those notes. msgpack is a structured format, a bit like JSON, except
not text-based. It is therefore possible to dump the contents in
human-readable form without knowledge of the specific layout of the
note.
Add configury to binutils to optionally check for the msgpack C library
[2]. Add There is a new --with{,out}-msgpack configure flag, and the actual
library lookup is done using pkg-config.
If msgpack support is enabled, dumping a NT_AMDGPU_METADATA note looks
like:
$ readelf --notes amdgpu-code-object
Displaying notes found in: .note

If msgpack support is disabled, dump the contents as hex, as is done
with notes that are not handled in a special way. This allows one to
decode the contents manually (maybe using a command-line msgpack
decoder) if really needed.

The result of running etc/update-copyright.py --this-year, fixing all
the files whose mode is changed by the script, plus a build with
--enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes, then checking
out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.
The copy of cgen was with commit d1dd5fcc38ead reverted as that commit
breaks building of bfp opcodes files.
netbsdpe was deprecated in c2ce831330.
Since then, a release has passed (2.37), and it was marked obselete in
5c9cbf07f3. Unless I am mistaken, that
means we can now remove support altogether.
All branches in the "active" code are remove, and the target is
additionally marked as obsolete next to the other removed ones for
libbfd and gdb.
Per [1] from the NetBSD toolchain list, PE/COFF support was removed a
decade ago. Furthermore, the sole mention of this target in the binutils
commit history was in 2002. Together, I'm led to believe this target
hasn't seen much attention in quite a while.

This unfortunately means conditionalizing out all the libctf code, but
the result is not too unbearably ugly, if a bit repetitive. I have
stubbed out code in the !ENABLE_LIBCTF path to avoid extra redundant
ifdefs where it seems that might be helpful. (The stubs are not too
disruptive, but I've tried to keep them on one line where possible to
avoid filling up the screen with stubs that nobody would care about.
If this is too much of a coding style violation I can change it.)

debuginfod is a lightweight web service that indexes ELF/DWARF
debugging resources by build-id and serves them over HTTP. This patch
enables objdump and readelf to query debuginfod servers when they are
otherwise not able to find separate debug files. Binutils can be built
with debuginfod using the --with-debuginfod configure option. This
requires that libdebuginfod be installed and found at configure time.
debuginfod is packaged with elfutils, starting with version 0.178. For

When trying to run the update-gnulib.sh script in gdb, I get this:
Error: Wrong automake version (Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\${ <-- HERE ([^ =:+{}]+)}/ at /opt/automake/1.11.1/bin/automake line 4113.), we need 1.11.1.
Aborting.
Apparently, it's an issue with a regex in automake that triggers a
warning starting with Perl 5.22. It has been fixed in automake 1.15.1.
So I think it's a good excuse to bump the versions of autoconf and
automake used in the gnulib import. And to avoid requiring multiple
builds of autoconf/automake, it was suggested that we bump the required
version of those tools for all binutils-gdb.
For autoconf, the 2.69 version is universally available, so it's an easy
choice. For automake, different distros and distro versions have
different automake versions. But 1.15.1 seems to be the most readily
available as a package. In any case, it's easy to build it from source.
I removed the version checks from AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS and AC_PREREQ,
because I don't think they are useful in our case. They only specify a
lower bound for the acceptable version of automake/autoconf. That's
useful if you let the user choose the version of the tool they want to
use, but want to set a minimum version (because you use a feature that
was introduced in that version). In our case, we force people to use a
specific version anyway. For the autoconf version, we have the check in
config/override.m4 that enforces the version we want. It will be one
less thing to update next time we change autotools version.
I hit a few categories of problems that required some changes. They are
described below along with the chosen solutions.
Problem 1:
configure.ac:17: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments forms are deprecated. For more info, see:
configure.ac:17: http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/automake.html#Modernize-AM_005fINIT_005fAUTOMAKE-invocation

Solution 2:
Add the foreign option to AUTOMAKE_OPTIONS.
Problem 3:

Use the no-texinfo.tex automake option. We also have one in
texinfo/texinfo.tex, not sure if we should point to that, or move it
(or a newer version of it added with automake --add-missing) to
top-level.
Problem 8:
Makefile.am:131: warning: source file 'config/tc-aarch64.c' is in a subdirectory,
Makefile.am:131: but option 'subdir-objects' is disabled
automake: warning: possible forward-incompatibility.
automake: At least a source file is in a subdirectory, but the 'subdir-objects'
automake: automake option hasn't been enabled. For now, the corresponding output
automake: object file(s) will be placed in the top-level directory. However,
automake: this behaviour will change in future Automake versions: they will
automake: unconditionally cause object files to be placed in the same subdirectory
automake: of the corresponding sources.
automake: You are advised to start using 'subdir-objects' option throughout your
automake: project, to avoid future incompatibilities.
Solution 8:
Use subdir-objects, that means adjusting references to some .o that will now
be in config/.

xcoff (32-bit) objdump accepted but ignored -M options unless
-mpowerpc was also given. This patch fixes that, leaving the default
as -Mpwr for xcoff. I've also enabled more tests for xcoff targets.

* configure: Regenerate.
gas/
* testsuite/gas/ppc/aix.exp: Run for rs6000 too.
* testsuite/gas/ppc/ppc.exp: Run more tests for non-ELF targets.
