VMA of the first section in the segment containing the ELF file header
(and possibly section headers too) can't be used to reliably find the
size of the headers plus padding. What's really needed is sh_offset
of the first section assuming it has contents (vma does have a
relationship to sh_offset, but is only guaranteed in demand paged
executables).
If the first section is SHT_NOBITS and it hasn't been converted to
have file contents by the existence of a following SHT_PROGBITS
section in the same segment, the sh_offset value also isn't reliable.

elf.c (copy_elf_program_header): When first segment contains
only the headers and SHT_NOBITS sections, use segment p_filesz
to calculate header and padding size. Use filepos of the first

Sections may well belong in multiple segments. The testcase in the PR
saw an allocated section being assigned to an ABIFLAGS segment, then
not being assigned to a LOAD segment because it had already been
handled. To fix that particular problem this patch sets and tests
segment_mark only for LOAD segments. I kept the segment_mark test for
LOAD segments because I think there may otherwise be a problem with
zero size sections.
A few other problems showed up with the testcase. Some targets align
.dynamic, resulting in the test failing with "section .dynamic lma
0x800000c0 adjusted to 0x800000cc" and similar messages. I've tried
to handle that with some more hacks to the segment lma, which do the
right thing for the testcase, but may well fail in other situations.
I've also removed the tests of segment lma (p_paddr) and code involved
in deciding that an adjusted segment no longer covers the file or
program headers. Those test can't be correct in the face of objcopy
--change-section-lma. It may be necessary to reinstate the tests but
do them modulo page size, but we'll see how this goes.

CORE PT_NOTE segments may have p_align values of 0 or 1. gABI specifies
that PT_NOTE alignment should be aligned to 4 bytes for 32-bit objects
and to 8 bytes for 64-bit objects. If segment alignment is less than 4,
we use 4 byte alignment.
This reverts commit 650444eb54.
With this patch, running the GDB test case gdb.base/auxv.exp is stuck in
an infinite loop, consuming memory to the point that it renders the
machine unusable. I am reverting it so we can take our time to
investigate while not killing all the developers' machines.
According to gABI, in a note entry, the note name field, not note name
size, is padded for the note descriptor. And the note descriptor field,
not note descriptor size, is padded for the next note entry. Also notes
are aligned to 4 bytes in 32-bit objects and 8 bytes in 64-bit objects.
Since on Linux, .note.ABI-tag and .note.gnu.build-id notes are always
aligned to 4 bytes, we need to use alignment of note section or note
segment, instead of assuming alignment based on ELF file class.

Add a new ELF backend method to grok FreeBSD NT_PRSTATUS core dump
notes. Define a method for MIPS N32 to override the default
elfcore_grok_freebsd_prstatus that accounts for additional padding
between pr_pid and pr_reg that is not present in other 32-bit FreeBSD
platforms.
* elf-bfd.h (struct elf_backend_data): Add
`elf_backend_grok_freebsd_prstatus'.
* elf.c (elfcore_grok_freebsd_note): Call
`elf_backend_grok_freebsd_prstatus' to handle NT_PRSTATUS if
present.

This fixes a wart I've known about for years, but haven't done
anything about because BFD treats relocation sections as an adjunct to
the section they relocate. SHF_GROUP on the section thus implicitly
applies to its relocation section(s), but it is an error that the
reloc sections aren't part of the group.
Like many patches to gas, this wasn't as straightforward as it could
be due to a number of backends, i386, cr16 and others, removing relocs
in tc_get_reloc rather than marking them as "done" earlier in
md_apply_reloc. So it isn't possible for the group support to
reliably detect the presence of relocs by looking at fixups earlier
than write_relocs. However the group support needs to create
signature symbols, and that must be done before the symbol table is
frozen, before write_relocs. So split off the group sizing from
elf_adjust_symtab and put it in elf_frob_file_after_relocs.

The sanity check covers the previous minimim size, plus that the size
is at least enough for sh_info verneed entries.
Also, since we write all verneed fields or exit with an error, there
isn't any need to zero the memory allocated for verneed entries.

Fix two typos that resulted in swapping the BFD names for the core note
register sections NT_S390_GS_CB and NT_S390_GS_BC.
bfd/ChangeLog:
* elf.c (elfcore_grok_note): For the cases NT_S390_GS_CB and
NT_S390_GS_BC, correct the previously swapped invocations of
elfcore_grok_s390_gs_bc and elfcore_grok_s390_gs_cb.
