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.
Give backends a chance to see these, just as they can see binary ones.
Most of those which use this hook already cope with NULL being passed
for the left operand (typically because of checking the operator first).
Adjust the two which don't.
Take the opportunity and also document the hook.
The newer update-copyright.py fixes file encoding too, removing cr/lf
on binutils/bfdtest2.c and ld/testsuite/ld-cygwin/exe-export.exp, and
embedded cr in binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/ar.exp string match.
This patch is based on MULTIPLE_FRAME_SECTIONS and EH_FRAME_LINKONCE,
it allows backend to enable this feature and use '--gc-sections' simply.
* gas/dw2gencfi.h (TARGET_MULTIPLE_EH_FRAME_SECTIONS): New.
(MULTIPLE_FRAME_SECTIONS): Add TARGET_MULTIPLE_EH_FRAME_SECTIONS.
* gas/dw2gencfi.c (EH_FRAME_LINKONCE): Add TARGET_MULTIPLE_EH_FRAME_SECTIONS.
(is_now_linkonce_segment): Likewise.
(get_cfi_seg): Create relocation info between .eh_frame.* and .text.* section.
* bfd/elf-bfd.h (elf_backend_can_make_multiple_eh_frame): New.
* bfd/elfxx-target.h (elf_backend_can_make_multiple_eh_frame): Likewise.
* bfd/elflink.c (_bfd_elf_default_action_discarded): Add checking for
elf_backend_can_make_multiple_eh_frame.
Assuming GMSD is a special operand, marked as O_md1, the code:
.set VREG, GMSD
.set REG, VREG
extsw REG, 2
...fails upon attempts to resolve the value of the symbol. This happens
since machine-dependent values are not handled in the giant op switch.
We introduce a custom md_resolve_symbol macro; the ports can use this
macro to customize the behavior when resolve_symbol_value hits O_md
operand.
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.
I've been repeatedly confused by, in particular, the .dc.a potable[]
entry being conditional. Grepping in gas/config/ reveals only very few
targets actually #define-ing it. But as of 7be1c4891a the symbol is
always defined, so #ifdef-s are pointless (and, as said, potentially
confusing).
Also adjust documentation to reflect this.
Its (documented) behavior is unhelpful in particular in 64-bit build
environments: While printing large 32-bit numbers in decimal already
isn't very meaningful to most people, this even more so goes for yet
larger 64-bit numbers. bfd_sprintf_vma() still tries to limit the number
of digits printed (without depending on a build system property), but
uniformly produces hex output.

x86: Rewrite NOP generation for fill and alignment
increased MAX_MEM_FOR_RS_ALIGN_CODE to 4095 which resulted in increase
of assembler time and memory usage by 5 times for inputs with many
.p2align directives, which is typical for LTO output. This patch passes
max_bytes to TC_FRAG_INIT so that MAX_MEM_FOR_RS_ALIGN_CODE can be set
as needed and tracked by backend it so that HANDLE_ALIGN can check the
maximum alignment for each rs_align_code frag. Wall time to assemble
the same cc1plus.s:

This file was never supposed to be widely used. The fact that it has
found its way into many gas files led to bugs, typically when code
expecting a symbolS* to point at a struct symbol is presented with a

2012 but didn't catch all places where symbol bsym was being used to
test for a local_symbol.

Binutils documentation uses a mix of spelling for the compound word
"command-line X". According to [1]:
"Sometimes compound words are written separately (nail polish),
sometimes with a hyphen (short-sighted) and sometimes as one word
(eyelashes). Often new compounds are written as two separate words and,
as they become more familiar, they are either connected with a hyphen
(-) or made into one word."
I think command-line X is common enough in our industry that the two
workds command and line should be connected. Since command-line is more
common than commandline, I propose to update binutils documentation to
consistently use "command-line" when this is used as an adjective to a
noun (eg. command-line argument, command-line switch, command-line
option and command-line flag). I've left occurences of "the command
line" as is. I've also left gdb, sim and readline alone and have only
touched public documentation (texi and NEWS files).
