Hi Guys,
I am applying the rather large patch attached to this email to enhance
the readelf and objdump programs so that they now have the ability to
follow links to separate debug info files. (As requested by PR
15152). So for example whereas before we had this output:
$ readelf -wi main.exe
Contents of the .debug_info section:
[...]
<15> DW_AT_comp_dir : (alt indirect string, offset: 0x30c)
[...]
With the new option enabled we get:
$ readelf -wiK main.exe
main.exe: Found separate debug info file: dwz.debug
Contents of the .debug_info section (loaded from main.exe):
[...]
<15> DW_AT_comp_dir : (alt indirect string, offset: 0x30c) /home/nickc/Downloads/dwzm
[...]
The link following feature also means that we can get two lots of
output if the same section exists in both the main file and the
separate debug info file:
$ readelf -wiK main.exe
main.exe: Found separate debug info file: dwz.debug
Contents of the .debug_info section (loaded from main.exe):
[...]
Contents of the .debug_info section (loaded from dwz.debug):
[...]
The patch also adds the ability to display the contents of debuglink
sections:
$ readelf -wk main.exe
Contents of the .gnu_debugaltlink section:
Separate debug info file: dwz.debug
Build-ID (0x14 bytes):
c4 a8 89 8d 64 cf 70 8a 35 68 21 f2 ed 24 45 3e 18 7a 7a 93
Naturally there are long versions of these options (=follow-links and
=links). The documentation has been updated as well, and since both
readelf and objdump use the same set of debug display options, I have
moved the text into a separate file. There are also a couple of new
binutils tests to exercise the new behaviour.
There are a couple of missing features in the current patch however,
although I do intend to address them in follow up submissions:
Firstly the code does not check the build-id inside separate debug
info files when it is searching for a file specified by a
.gnu_debugaltlink section. It just assumes that if the file is there,
then it contains the information being sought.
Secondly I have not checked the DWARF-5 version of these link
features, so there will probably be code to add there.
Thirdly I have only implemented link following for the
DW_FORM_GNU_strp_alt format. Other alternate formats (eg
DW_FORM_GNU_ref_alt) have yet to be implemented.
Lastly, whilst implementing this feature I found it necessary to move
some of the global variables used by readelf (eg section_headers) into
a structure that can be passed around. I have moved all of the global
variables that were necessary to get the patch working, but I need to
complete the operation and move the remaining, file-specific variables
(eg dynamic_strings).
Cheers
Nick

To allow translators to reorder values in translated strings. This
should mean that all binutils messages now have support for
reordering.
Note to translators: Not all % letters take arguments, so for example
the following only has two arguments, the two %s strings.
"%P%F: output format %s cannot represent section called %s: %E\n"
You could reorder this if you liked to:
"%P%F: %E: section %2$s cannot be represented in output format %1$s\n"
einfo lacks support for flags, field width, precision and length
modifier (apart from %ld and %lu) so don't try to use them in
translations. Both ld and bfd lack support to use a positional arg
twice. These features could be added if needed..
* ldmisc.c (vfinfo): Support up to 9 positional args.
The fix for the PR is to not use input_section->output_section->owner
to get to the output bfd, but use the output bfd directly since it is
available nowadays in struct bfd_link_info.
I thought it worth warning when non-empty dynamic sections are
discarded too, which meant a tweak to one of the ld tests to avoid the
warning.

binutils has lacked proper pluralization of output messages for a long
time, for example, readelf will display information about a section
that "contains 1 entries" or "There are 1 section headers". Fixing
this properly requires us to use ngettext, because other languages
have different rules to English.
This patch defines macros for ngettext and friends to handle builds
with --disable-nls, and tidies the existing nls support. I've
redefined gettext rather than just defining "_" as dgettext in bfd and
opcodes in case someone wants to use gettext there (which might
conceivably happen with generated code).

The behavior of _bfd_elf_merge_symbol and _bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol is
inconsistent.
In multiple definition case, _bfd_elf_merge_symbol decided to override the old
symbol definition with the new defintion, (size, type, target data)
In _bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol, it simply return without doing anything
because of allow-multiple-definition is provided.
This leaves the symbol in a wrong state.
Here, following the documentation, I made this patch to force the old definition
override the new definition if the old symbol is not dynamic or weak.
Because, in those two cases, it's expected to do some merge. I have checked
that, those two cases are properly handled.

We currently delete bytes by shifting an entire BFD backwards to
overwrite the bytes we no longer need. The result is that relaxing a
BFD is quadratic time.
This patch adds an additional relocation that specifies a byte range
that will be deleted from the final object file, and adds a relaxation
pass (between the existing passes that delete bytes and the alignment
pass) that actually deletes the bytes. Note that deletion is still
quadratic time, and nothing uses R_RISCV_DELETE yet.
I've been meaning to go convert all the other relaxations to use
R_RISCV_DELETE and then make it faster, but this patch has been sitting
around for months so it looks like that won't happen for a bit. The
PCREL->GPREL relaxation that comes next uses this, and since we've been
using these two patches out of tree since I wrote them months ago I
figure it's better to just get them in now. I (or someone else :)) can
convert all the relocations later...
R_RISCV_DELETE will never be emitted into ELF objects, so therefor isn't
exposed to the rest of binutils. As such, we're not considering this as
part of the ABI.

I believe we should be warning if ld is given both --no-dynamic-linker
and -z dynamic-undefined-weak. The two options are contradictory, the
first says an executable has no dynamic interpreter to resolve dynamic
symbols, while the second is asking for dynamic symbols to be emitted.
(And even if a static PIE's relocation code, which is needed to
process R_*_RELATIVE relocs, could process symbols, there are no
DT_NEEDED dynamic objects to define such symbols.)
I also think that dynamic_undefined_weak is the right flag to control
whether undefined weaks are made dynamic, whether in static PIEs or
anywhere else. So force it to 0 for static PIEs, fixing PR 22269 for
powerpc and any other target where the backend usually defaults to
undefined weaks being made dynamic.
This patch introduces regressions. I'd normally not do that, but
these are all in very recently added test cases, or expose bugs in the
x86 backend. The test cases were added after I'd made it known that
this patch or one like it was imminent.
PR 22269
* emultempl/elf32.em (after_parse): Warn on --no-dynamic-linker
-z dynamic-undefined-weak combination. Set dynamic_undefined_weak
to zero when nointerp.
This function shouldn't be called directly, except from backend code.

Formatting.
Since undefined weak symbols in static PIE are always resolved to 0 at
run-time, linker should resolve them as 0 at link-time, regardless of
whether "-z dynamic-undefined-weak" is used. "-z dynamic-undefined-weak"
only makes undefined weak symbols dynamic, but doesn't change undefined
weak symbol resolution in static PIE at link-time. These tests currently
pass on x86, but fails on many other targets.
The framework to resolve weak symbols in static PE at link-time is
posted at
https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2017-10/msg00087.html
which requires users/hjl/check_relocs branch to call check_relocs after
opening all inputs. I will submit backend patches for failling targets
after merging users/hjl/check_relocs branch next.
