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.
The testcase managed to trigger creation of a wild pointer in
coff_slurp_symbol_table. Stop that happening, and fix an unrelated
problem I happened to see in bfd_coff_get_syment.
* coff-bfd.c (bfd_coff_get_syment): Clear fix_value after
converting n_value from a pointer to an index.
* coffcode.h (coff_slurp_symbol_table <C_BSTAT>): Sanity check
symbol value before converting to a pointer.
long is a poor choice of type to store 32-bit values read from
objects files by H_GET_32. H_GET_32 doesn't sign extend so tests like
that in gdb/coffread.c for "negative" values won't work if long is
larger than 32 bits. If long is 32-bit then code needs to be careful
to not accidentally index negative array elements. (I'd rather see a
segfault on an unmapped 4G array index than silently reading bogus
data.) long is also a poor choice for x_sect.s_scnlen, which might
have 64-bit values. It's better to use unsigned exact width types to
avoid surprises.
I decided to change the field names too, which makes most of this
patch simply renaming. Besides that there are a few places where
casts are no longer needed, and where printf format strings or tests
need adjusting.
include/
* coff/internal.h (union internal_auxent): Use unsigned stdint
types. Rename l fields to u32 and u64 as appropriate.
bfd/
* coff-bfd.c,
* coff-rs6000.c,
* coff64-rs6000.c,
* coffcode.h,
* coffgen.c,
* cofflink.c,
* coffswap.h,
* peXXigen.c,
* xcofflink.c: Adjust to suit internal_auxent changes.
binutils/
* rdcoff.c: Adjust to suit internal_auxent changes.
gas/
* config/obj-coff.h,
* config/tc-ppc.c: Adjust to suit internal_auxent changes.
gdb/
* coffread.c,
* xcoffread.c: Adjust to suit internal_auxent changes.
ld/
* pe-dll.c: Adjust to suit internal_auxent changes.
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.
bfd_hostptr_t is defined as a type large enough to hold either a long
or a pointer. It mostly appears in the coff backend code in casts.
include/coff/internal.h struct internal_syment and union
internal_auxent have the only uses in data structures, where
comparison with include/coff/external.h and other code reveals that
the type only needs to be large enough for a 32-bit integer or a
pointer. That should mean replacing with uintptr_t is OK.
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.
A C_BSTAT debug symbol specifies the beginning of a static block.
Its n_value is the index of the csect containing static symbols.
A C_STSYM debug symbol represents the stabstring of a statically
allocated symbol. Its n_value is the offset in the csect pointed
by the containing C_BSTAT.
These two special n_value were not correctly handled both when
generating object files with gas or when reading them with objdump.
This patch tries to improve that and, above all, to allow gas-generated
object files with such symbols to be accepted by AIX ld.
bfd/
* coff-bfd.c (bfd_coff_get_syment): Adjust n_value of symbols
having fix_value = 1 in order to be an index and not a memory
offset.
* coffgen.c (coff_get_symbol_info): Likewize.
(coff_print_symbol): Likewize.
gas/
* config/tc-ppc.c (ppc_frob_label): Don't change within if
already set.
(ppc_stabx): Remove workaround changing exp.X_add_symbol's
within.
* config/tc-ppc.h (struct ppc_tc_sy): Update comments.
* symbols.c (resolve_symbol_value): Remove symbol update
when final_val is 0 and it's an AIX debug symbol.
* testsuite/gas/ppc/aix.exp: Add new tests.
* testsuite/gas/ppc/xcoff-stsym-32.d: New test.
* testsuite/gas/ppc/xcoff-stsym-64.d: New test.
* testsuite/gas/ppc/xcoff-stsym.s: New test.
