keep_relocs is set by pe_ILF_save_relocs but not used anywhere in the
coff/pe code. It is tested by the xcoff backend but not set.
keep_contents is only used by the xcoff backend when dealing with
the .loader section, and it's easy enough to dispense with it there.
keep_contents is set in various places but that's fairly useless when
the contents aren't freed anyway until later linker support functions,
add_dynamic_symbols and check_dynamic_ar_symbols. There the contents
were freed if keep_contents wasn't set. I reckon we can free them
unconditionally.

and keep_contents.

keep_contents for .loader.
(xcoff_link_add_dynamic_symbols): Free .loader contents

(xcoff_link_check_dynamic_ar_symbols): Likewise.
keep_relocs and keep_contents are unused nowadays except by
xcofflink.c, and I can't see a reason why keep_syms needs to be set.
The external syms are read and used by sh_relax_section and used by
sh_relax_delete_bytes. There doesn't appear to be any way that
freeing them will cause trouble.
* coff-sh.c (sh_relax_section): Don't set keep_relocs,
keep_contents or keep_syms.
(sh_relax_delete_bytes): Don't set keep_contents.
If file size is calculated by bfd_get_file_size, as it is by
_bfd_alloc_and_read calls in coff_object_p, then it is cached and when
pe_ILF_build_a_bfd converts an archive entry over to BFD_IN_MEMORY,
the file size is no longer valid. Found when attempting objdump -t on
a very small (27 bytes) ILF file and hitting the pr24707 fix (commit
781152ec18). So, clear file size when setting BFD_IN_MEMORY on bfds
that may have been read. (It's not necessary in writable bfds,
because caching is ignored by bfd_get_size when bfd_write_p.)
I also think the PR 24707 fix is no longer neeeded. All of the
testcases in that PR and in PR24712 are caught earlier by file size
checks when reading the symbols from file. So I'm reverting that fix,
which just compared the size of an array of symbol pointers against
file size. That's only valid if on-disk symbols are larger than a
host pointer, so the test is better done in format-specific code.

When using a bss-plt we'll always trigger the RWX warning, which
disturbs gcc test results. On the other hand, there may be reason to
want the warning when gcc is configured with --enable-secureplt.

solution. Instead, we'll turn off the warning whenever a bss-plt is
generated, unless the user explicitly asked for the warning.

There are failure paths in _bfd_dwarf2_slurp_debug_info that can
result in altered section vmas. Also, when setting ET_REL section
vmas it's not too difficult to handle cases where the original vma was
non-zero, so do that too.
This patch was really in response to an addr2line buffer overflow
processing a fuzzed mips relocatable object file. The file had a
number of .debug_info sections with relocations that included lo16 and
hi16 relocs, and in that order. At least one section VMA was
non-zero. This resulted in processing of DWARF info twice, once via
the call to _bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line in
_bfd_mips_elf_find_nearest_line, and because that failed leaving VMAs
altered, the second via the call in _bfd_elf_find_nearest_line. The
first call left entries on mips_hi16_list pointing at buffers
allocated during the first call, the second call processed the
mips_hi16_list after the buffers had been freed. (At least when
running with asan and under valgrind. Under gdb with a non-asan
addr2line the second call allocated exactly the same buffer and the
bug didn't show.) Now I don't really care too much what happens with
fuzzed files, but the logic in _bfd_dwarf2_find_nearest_line is meant
to result in only one read of .debug_info, not multiple reads of the
same info when there are errors. This patch fixes that problem.

Anti-fuzzer measures. The checks don't ensure the various elements in

It seems reasonable to continue after errors in bfd_close_all_done,
particularly since bfd_close_all_done is typically called on an output

bfd_create.

This patch adds support for the .secidx directive and its corresponding
relocation to aarch64-w64-mingw32. As with x86, this is a two-byte LE
integer which gets filled in with the 1-based index of the output
section that a symbol ends up in.
This is needed for PDBs, which represent addresses as a .secrel32,
.secidx pair.
The test is substantially the same as for amd64, but with changes made
for padding and alignment.
* use power-of-two hash table
* use better hash function (hashing 32bits at once and with better
mixing characteristics)
* use input-offset-to-entry maps instead of retaining full input
contents for lookup time
* don't reread SEC_MERGE section multiple times
* care for cache behaviour for the hot lookup routine
The overall effect is less usage in libz and much faster string merging
itself. On a debug-info-enabled cc1 the effect at the time of this
writing on the machine I used was going from 14400 perf samples to 9300
perf samples or from 3.7 seconds to 2.4 seconds, i.e. about 33% .

This adds a new flag to the reloc howtos that can be used to

I've made a few other changes to bfd_install_relocation, removing dead
code and comments that are really only applicable to
bfd_perform_relocation.
There is also a reloc offset bounds check change. I've moved the
check to where data is accessed, as it seems reasonable to me to not
perform the check unless it is needed. There is precedence for this;
Relocations against absolute symbols already avoided the check.
I also tried always performing the reloc offset check, and ran into
testsuite failures due to _NONE and _ALIGN relocs at the end of
sections. These likely would be fixed if all such reloc howtos had
size set to zero, but I would rather not edit lots of files when it
involves checking that target code does not use the size.
