This patch fixes an internal error in GAS when defining a section using
a symbol that has already been named but not defined. For a minimal
reproducer, try the following input:
a=b
.sect a
The problem is that obj_elf_change_section() happily reuses the symbol
"a" created by equals() without clearing the sy_value field: prior to
this patch, it just set bsym. This caused a problem when attempting to
resolve the section symbol, since resolve_symbol_value() ended up
resolving the symbol as if it were the original symbol created by
equals(), which ends up leaving the section symbol in the undefined
section instead of in section a, hence the call to abort() in
S_SET_SEGMENT().

Prior to this commit, on an input such as "88888888888:", GAS hits a
signed integer overflow and likely an assertion failure. I see:

{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:1: Internal error in fb_label_name at ../gas/symbols.c:2049.
Please report this bug.
To fix this issue, I've taken two steps:
1. Change the type used for processing local labels in
read_a_source_file() from int to long, to allow representing more
local labels, and also since all uses of this variable (temp) are
actually of type long.
2. Detect if we would overflow and bail out with an error message
instead of actually overflowing and hitting the assertion in
fb_label_name().

For DWARF5 the zero file list entry in the .debug_line table represents

the compile unit can be set) use file (and dir) 1 if that is defined
(otherwise fall back to pwd, to match DW_AT_comp_dir).

GDB currently doesn't build on 32-bit Solaris:
* On Solaris 11.4/x86:
In file included from /usr/include/sys/procfs.h:26,
from /vol/src/gnu/gdb/hg/master/dist/gdb/i386-sol2-nat.c:24:
/usr/include/sys/old_procfs.h:31:2: error: #error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment"
#error "Cannot use procfs in the large file compilation environment"
^~~~~
* On Solaris 11.3/x86 there are several more instances of this.
The interaction between procfs and large-file support historically has
been a royal mess on Solaris:
* There are two versions of the procfs interface:
** The old ioctl-based /proc, deprecated and not used any longer in
either gdb or binutils.
** The `new' (introduced in Solaris 2.6, 1997) structured /proc.
* There are two headers one can possibly include:
** <procfs.h> which only provides the structured /proc, definining
_STRUCTURED_PROC=1 and then including ...
** <sys/procfs.h> which defaults to _STRUCTURED_PROC=0, the ioctl-based
/proc, but provides structured /proc if _STRUCTURED_PROC == 1.
* procfs and the large-file environment didn't go well together:
** Until Solaris 11.3, <sys/procfs.h> would always #error in 32-bit
compilations when the large-file environment was active
(_FILE_OFFSET_BITS == 64).
** In both Solaris 11.4 and Illumos, this restriction was lifted for
structured /proc.
So one has to be careful always to define _STRUCTURED_PROC=1 when
testing for or using <sys/procfs.h> on Solaris. As the errors above
show, this isn't always the case in binutils-gdb right now.
Also one may need to disable large-file support for 32-bit compilations
on Solaris. config/largefile.m4 meant to do this by wrapping the
AC_SYS_LARGEFILE autoconf macro with appropriate checks, yielding
ACX_LARGEFILE. Unfortunately the macro doesn't always succeed because
it neglects the _STRUCTURED_PROC part.
To make things even worse, since GCC 9 g++ predefines
_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 on Solaris. So even if largefile.m4 deciced not to
enable large-file support, this has no effect, breaking the gdb build.
This patch addresses all this as follows:
* All tests for the <sys/procfs.h> header are made with
_STRUCTURED_PROC=1, the definition going into the various config.h
files instead of having to make them (and sometimes failing) in the
affected sources.
* To cope with the g++ predefine of _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64,
-U_FILE_OFFSET_BITS is added to various *_CPPFLAGS variables. It had
been far easier to have just
#undef _FILE_OFFSET_BITS
in config.h, but unfortunately such a construct in config.in is
commented by config.status irrespective of indentation and whitespace
if large-file support is disabled. I found no way around this and
putting the #undef in several global headers for bfd, binutils, ld,
and gdb seemed way more invasive.
* Last, the applicability check in largefile.m4 was modified only to
disable largefile support if really needed. To do so, it checks if
<sys/procfs.h> compiles with _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 defined. If it
doesn't, the disabling only happens if gdb exists in-tree and isn't
disabled, otherwise (building binutils from a tarball), there's no
conflict.
What initially confused me was the check for $plugins here, which
originally caused the disabling not to take place. Since AC_PLUGINGS
does enable plugin support if <dlfcn.h> exists (which it does on
Solaris), the disabling never happened.
I could find no explanation why the linker plugin needs large-file
support but thought it would be enough if gld and GCC's lto-plugin
agreed on the _FILE_OFFSET_BITS value. Unfortunately, that's not
enough: lto-plugin uses the simple-object interface from libiberty,
which includes off_t arguments. So to fully disable large-file
support would mean also disabling it in libiberty and its users: gcc
and libstdc++-v3. This seems highly undesirable, so I decided to
disable the linker plugin instead if large-file support won't work.
The patch allows binutils+gdb to build on i386-pc-solaris2.11 (both
Solaris 11.3 and 11.4, using GCC 9.3.0 which is the worst case due to
predefined _FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64). Also regtested on
amd64-pc-solaris2.11 (again on Solaris 11.3 and 11.4),
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu and i686-pc-linux-gnu.

Make the MIPS/IRIX naming of local section symbols consistent between
files produced by generic ELF code and ELF linker code, complementing
commit 174fd7f955 ("New bfd elf hook: force naming of local section
symbols"), <https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2004-02/msg00072.html>.
Local section symbols have no names in the standard ELF gABI, however
the lack of a name causes problems with IRIX's MIPSpro linker. To work
around the issue we give them names, however we do that in generic ELF
code only, based on what the `elf_backend_name_local_section_symbols'
hook returns if present. That makes objects created by GAS or `objdump'
work correctly, however not ones created by `ld -r'. That would not
normally cause issues with IRIX systems using GAS and `objdump' only
with the MIPSpro linker, however if GNU LD was used for whatever reason
in producing objects later fed to IRIX's MIPSpro linker, then things
would break.
Modify ELF linker code accordingly then, using the same hook. Adjust
the `ld-elf/64ksec-r' test accordingly so that it also accepts a section
symbol with a name.
Also modify the hook itself so that only actual ET_REL objects have
names assigned to local section symbols. Other kinds of ELF files are
not ever supposed to be relocated with the MIPSpro linker, so we can
afford producing more standard output.
Add suitable GAS, LD and `objcopy' test cases to the relevant testsuites
to keep these tools consistently verified. This change also fixes:
FAIL: objcopy executable (pr25662)
across MIPS targets using the IRIX compatibility mode.

Correct ELF linker code so as to set the `sh_info' value of the static
symbol table section according to the section symbols vs other symbols
split where required by the selection of the IRIX compatibility mode for
MIPS target. Add a `elf_backend_elfsym_local_is_section' hook for that
purpose, returning TRUE if it is only STB_LOCAL/STT_SECTION symbols that
are to be considered local for the purpose of this split rather than all
STB_LOCAL symbols.
We do it already in generic ELF code, and have done it since 1993, with
the `elf_backend_sym_is_global' hook, affecting GAS and `objcopy', so
these tools produce correct ELF output in the IRIX compatibility mode,
however if such output is fed as input to `ld -r', then the linker's
output is no longer valid for that mode. The relevant changes to
generic ELF code are:
commit 062189c6ea
Author: Ian Lance Taylor <ian@airs.com>
Date: Thu Nov 18 17:12:47 1993 +0000
and:
commit 6e07e54f1b
Author: Ian Lance Taylor <ian@airs.com>
Date: Thu Jan 6 20:01:42 1994 +0000
(split across two GIT commits likely due to repository conversion
peculiarities).
The `elf_backend_sym_is_global' hook however operates on BFD rather than
ELF symbols, making it unsuitable for the ELF linker as the linker does
not convert any symbol tables processed into the BFD format. Converting
the hook to operate on ELF symbols would in principle be possible, but
it would still require a considerable rewrite of `bfd_elf_final_link' to
adapt to the interface.
Therefore, especially given that no new use for the IRIX compatibility
mode is expected, minimize changes made to the ELF linker code and just
add an entirely new hook, and wire it in the o32 and n32 MIPS backends
accordingly; the n64 backend never uses the IRIX compatibility mode.
Since we have no coverage here at all add suitable GAS, LD and `objcopy'
test cases to the relevant testsuites to keep these tools consistently
verified.

This reverts commit 04c662e2b6.
In my underlying suggestion I neglected the fact that in those
cases (,%eiz,1) is the only visible indication that 32-bit
addressing is in effect.
This reverts commit 19449d7c67, addressing
the issue that was run into back then: There was no relationship to i686-*
and/or cross builds on 64-bit hosts. The sole problem was the use of / as
as comment character in certain ELF targets. Instead of division, use a
comparison operation.
At the same time also revert the ELF related part of 99c2d522f7 ("x86:
Update assembler tests for non-ELF targets") by replacing the construct
that's problematic for non-ELF, and by adding the "#pass" patterns to
the expected output files to cover for the tail padding generated into
COFF output.
Ever since commit 4d7206a284 ("Rework MIPS macro relaxation, fix string

`prev_reloc_op_frag' has only been set and never used. Remove it then.

When / is a comment character, its use as binary "divide" operator needs
escaping by a backslash. Besides the scrubber needing to support this
(addressed in an earlier change), there are also a few provisions needed
in target specific operator handling.
As the spec calls for % and * to also be escaped because of being
"overloaded", also recognize these, despite the overloading there not
really preventing their use as operators in most (%) or all (*) cases,
given the way how the rest of the assembler works.
To bring source and testsuite in line, also drop the TE_I386AIX part of
the respective conditional, as i?86-*-aix* support had been removed a
while ago.
PR gas/4572
Generalize what ab1fadc6b2 ("PR22714, Assembler preprocessor loses
track of \@") did to always honor escaped comment chars. Use this then
to support escaped /, %, and * operators on x86, when / is a comment
char (to match the Sun assembler's behavior).
Various provisions exist for insns to be placed in the absolute section,
yet actually trying to do so didn't work. While data emission (of non-
zero values) is not allowed by generic code, I think this functionality
is useful for the programmer to be able to determine the size of insns.
Therefore, rather than turning the silnet failure into a verbose one,
make things mostly work; the one class of insns not supported (yet) are
branches (JMP and Jcc) with dynamically determined displacement widths.
In this one case, an error now gets reported instead of silently
ignoring the code.
Also avoid recording ISA / feature usage for insns emitted to the
absolute section.

The value chosen for the 16-/32-bit immediate cases didn't work well
with the subsequent insn's REX prefix - we ought to pick a value the
upper two bytes of which evaluate to a 2-byte insn. Bump the values
accordingly, allowing the subsequent insn to actually have the intended
REX.W.
"Unambiguous" is is in particular taking as reference the assembler,
which also accepts certain insns - despite them allowing for varying
operand size, and hence in principle being ambiguous - without any
suffix. For example, from the very beginning of the life of x86-64 I had
trouble understanding why a plain and simple RET had to be printed as
RETQ. In case someone really used the 16-bit form, RETW disambiguates
the two quite fine.
