It's not enough to test that the output is ELF before casting
bfd_link_hash_entry to elf_link_hash_entry. Some ELF targets (d30v,
dlx, pj, s12z, xgate) use the generic linker support in bfd/linker.c
and thus their symbols are of type generic_link_hash_entry.
Not all of the places this patch touches can result in wrong accesses,
but I thought it worth ensuring that all occurrences of
elf_link_hash_entry in ld/ were obviously correct.

Add support for TLS in XCOFF. Amongst the things done by this commit:
- Update XCOFF auxialiary header to match new version and allow TLS
sections.
- Add TLS sections (.tdata and .tbss) support in gas and ld.
- Add support for the TLS relocations in gas and ld.
Two different types BFD_RELOC are created for PPC and PPC64 as
the size is a pointer, thus distinct in 32 or 64bit.
The addresses given by ld to .tdata and .tbss is a bit special. In
XCOFF, these addresses are actually offsets from the TLS pointer
computed at runtime. AIX assembly and linker does the same. In
top of that, the .tdata must be before .data (this is mandatory for AIX
loader). Thus, the aix ld script is recomputing "." before .data to restore
its original value. There might be a simpler way, but this one is working.
Optimisation linked to TLS relocations aren't yet implemented.

According to the commit abd20cb637, an
intersting thing is that - the more relax passes, the more chances of
relaxations are reduced [1]. Originally, we set the boolean `again`
to TRUE once the code is actually deleted, and then we run the relaxations
repeatedly if `again` is still TRUE. But `again` only works for the
relax pass itself, and won't affect others. That is - we can not use
`again` to re-run the relax pass when we already enter into the following
passes (can not run the relax passes backwards). Besides, we must seperate
the PCREL relaxations into two relax passes for some reasons [2], it make
us lose some relax opportunities.
This patch try to fix the problem, and the basic idea was come from Jim
Wilson - we use a new boolean, restart_relax, to determine if we need to
run the whole relax passes again from 0 to 2. Once we have deleted the
code between relax pass 0 to 2, the restart_relax will be set to TRUE,
we should run the whole relaxations again to give them more chances to
shorten the code. We will only enter into the relax pass 3 when the
restart_relax is FALSE, since we can't relax anything else once we start
to handle the alignments.
I have passed the gcc/binutils regressions by riscv-gnu-toolchain, and
looks fine for now.

This moves the SHF_LINK_ORDER sorting from bfd_elf_final_link to
the linker which means generic ELF targets now support SHF_LINK_ORDER
and we cope with odd cases that require resizing of output sections.
The patch also fixes two bugs in the current implementation,
introduced by commit cd6d537c48. The pattern test used by that
commit meant that sections matching something like
"*(.IA_64.unwind* .gnu.linkonce.ia64unw.*)" would not properly sort a
mix of sections matching the two wildcards. That commit also assumed
a stable qsort.

I get the feedback recently that enable linker relaxations may fail to
build some program. Consider the following case,
.text
foo:
addi a0, a0, %pcrel_lo(.L2)
call foo
.L1: auipc a1, %pcrel_hi(data_g)
addi a1, a1, %pcrel_lo(.L1)
lui a2, %hi(data_g)
addi a2, a2, %lo(data_g)
lui a3, %tprel_hi(data_t)
add a3, a3, tp, %tprel_add(data_t)
addi a3, a3, %tprel_lo(data_t)
.L2: auipc a0, %pcrel_hi(data_g)
.data
.word 0x0
.global data_g
data_g: .word 0x1
.section .tbss
data_t: .word 0x0
The current ld reports `dangerous relocation error` when doing the
pcgp relaxation,
test.o: in function `foo':
(.text+0x0): dangerous relocation: %pcrel_lo missing matching %pcrel_hi
The .L2 auipc should not be removed since it is behind the corresponding
addi, so we record the information in the pcgp_relocs table to avoid
removing the auipc later. But current ld still remove it since we do not
update the pcgp_relocs table while doing other relaxations. I have two
solutions to fix the problem,
1. Update the pcgp_relocs table once we actually delete the code.
2. Add new relax pass to do the pcgp relaxations
At first I tried to do the first solution, and we need to update at
least three information - hi_sec_off of riscv_pcgp_lo_reloc, hi_sec_off
and hi_addr (symbol value) of riscv_pcgp_hi_reloc. Update the hi_sec_off
is simple, but it is more complicate to update the symbol value, since we
almost have to do parts the same works of _bfd_riscv_relax_call again in
the riscv_relax_delete_bytes to get the correct symbol value.
Compared with the first solution, the second one is more intuitive and
simple. We add a new relax pass to do the pcgp relaxations later, so
we will get all the information correctly in the _bfd_riscv_relax_call,
including the symbol value, without changing so much code. I do not see
any penalty by adding a new relax pass for now, so it should be fine
to delay the pcgp relaxations.
Besides, I have pass all riscv-gnu-toolchain regressions for this patch.

This is embarrassing.
The whole point of CTF is that it remains intact even after a binary is
stripped, providing a compact mapping from symbols to types for
everything in the externally-visible interface of an ELF object: it has
connections to the symbol table for that purpose, and to the string
table to avoid duplicating symbol names. So it's a shame that the hooks
I implemented last year served to hook it up to the .symtab and .strtab,
which obviously disappear on strip, leaving any accompanying the CTF
dict containing references to strings (and, soon, symbols) which don't
exist any more because their containing strtab has been vaporized. The
original Solaris design used .dynsym and .dynstr (well, actually,
.ldynsym, which has more symbols) which do not disappear. So should we.
Thankfully the work we did before serves as guide rails, and adjusting
things to use the .dynstr and .dynsym was fast and easy. The only
annoyance is that the dynsym is assembled inside elflink.c in a fairly
piecemeal fashion, so that the easiest way to get the symbols out was to
hook in before every call to swap_symbol_out (we also leave in a hook in
front of symbol additions to the .symtab because it seems plausible that
we might want to hook them in future too: for now that hook is unused).
We adjust things so that rather than being offered a whole hash table of
symbols at once, libctf is now given symbols one at a time, with st_name
indexes already resolved and pointing at their final .dynstr offsets:
it's now up to libctf to resolve these to names as needed using the
strtab info we pass it separately.
Some bits might be contentious. The ctf_new_dynstr callback takes an
elf_internal_sym, and this remains an elf_internal_sym right down
through the generic emulation layers into ldelfgen. This is no worse
than the elf_sym_strtab we used to pass down, but in the future when we
gain non-ELF CTF symtab support we might want to lower the
elf_internal_sym to some other representation (perhaps a
ctf_link_symbol) in bfd or in ldlang_ctf_new_dynsym. We rename the
'apply_strsym' hooks to 'acquire_strings' instead, becuse they no longer
have anything to do with symbols.
There are some API changes to pieces of API which are technically public
but actually totally unused by anything and/or unused by anything but ld
so they can change freely: the ctf_link_symbol gains new fields to allow
symbol names to be given as strtab offsets as well as strings, and a
symidx so that the symbol index can be passed in. ctf_link_shuffle_syms
loses its callback parameter: the idea now is that linkers call the new
ctf_link_add_linker_symbol for every symbol in .dynsym, feed in all the
strtab entries with ctf_link_add_strtab, and then a call to
ctf_link_shuffle_syms will apply both and arrange to use them to reorder
the CTF symtab at CTF serialization time (which is coming in the next
commit).
Inside libctf we have a new preamble flag CTF_F_DYNSTR which is always
set in v3-format CTF dicts from this commit forwards: CTF dicts without
this flag are associated with .strtab like they used to be, so that old
dicts' external strings don't turn to garbage when loaded by new libctf.
Dicts with this flag are associated with .dynstr and .dynsym instead.
(The flag is not the next in sequence because this commit was written
quite late: the missing flags will be filled in by the next commit.)
Tests forthcoming in a later commit in this series.

Some of the powerpc64 code editing functions are better run after
dynamic symbols have stabilised in order to make proper decisions
based on SYMBOL_REFERENCES_LOCAL. The dynamic symbols are processed
early in bfd_elf_size_dynamic_sections, before the backend
always_size_sections function is called.
One function, ppc64_elf_tls_setup must run before
bfd_elf_size_dynamic_sections because it changes dynamic symbols.
ppc64_elf_edit_opd and ppc64_elf_inline_plt can run early or late, I
think. ppc64_elf_tls_optimize and ppc64_elf_edit_toc are better run
later.
So this patch arranges to call some edit functions later via
always_size_sections.

The symbol string table in the .symtab section is optional and cosmetic.
The contents of the .symtab section have no impact on run-time execution.
The symbol names in the symbol string table help distinguish addresses at
different locations. Add a linker option, -z unique-symbol, to avoid
duplicated local symbol names in the symbol string table.
This feature was well received by the livepatch maintainers. It not only
solves the duplicated local symbol name problem, but also would allow
livepatch to more precisely locate duplicate symbols in general for
patching.

__{preinit,init,fini}_array_start symbols must be word aligned in
linker scripts. If the section preceding the __*_array_start symbol
has an odd size, then a NULL byte will be present between the start
symbol and the .*_array section itself, when the section gets
automatically word-aligned.
This results in a branch to an invalid address when the CRT startup
code tries to run through the functions listed in the array sections.
Some MSP430 linker scripts do not align the __*_array start symbols, so
this added warning will catch that problem and help the user avoid
the potential incorrect execution of the program.

The MSP430 linker shuffles input sections with names beginning with
".either" between the upper and lower memory regions, to try to avoid
one region overflowing when there is space in the other region.
However, when an ".either" input section attached to the tail of an
output section was moved to a different output section in the other
region, that tail wasn't being updated to the new section at the end
of the original output section.
This caused a bug where a shuffled section could end up in the
middle of another section in the output executable, resulting in
corrupted code or data.
When changing the output section of an input section attached to the
tail of its output section, that tail is now updated to point to
the new input section at the end of the section list.

This patch better supports mixing of power10 and non-power10 code,
as might be seen in a cpu-optimized library using ifuncs to select
functions optimized for a given cpu. Using -Wl,--no-power10-stubs
isn't that good in this situation since non-power10 notoc stubs are
slower and larger than the power10 variants, which you'd like to use
on power10 code paths.
With this change, power10 pc-relative code that makes calls marked
@notoc uses power10 stubs if stubs are necessary, and other calls use
non-power10 instructions in stubs. This will mean that if gcc is
generating code for -mcpu=power10 but with pc-rel disabled then you'll
get the older stubs even on power10 (unless you force with
-Wl,--power10-stubs). That shouldn't be too big a problem: stubs that
use r2 are reasonable. It's just the ones that set up addressing
using "mflr 12; bcl 20,31,.+4; mflr 11; mtlr 12" that should be
avoided if possible.
