Ulrich Weigand d4094b6a88 PowerPC64 ELFv2 ABI: no function descriptors
This implements the most significant difference with the ELFv2 ABI:
we no longer use function descriptors.  The patch consists mostly
of switching off code to deal with descriptors :-)

In addition, when calling an inferior function, we no longer need
to provide its TOC in r2.  Instead, ELFv2 code expects to be called
with r12 pointing to the code address itself.

gdb/ChangeLog:

	* ppc-linux-tdep.c (ppc_linux_init_abi): Only call
	set_gdbarch_convert_from_func_ptr_addr and
	set_gdbarch_elf_make_msymbol_special for ELFv1.
	* ppc-sysv-tdep.c (ppc64_sysv_abi_push_param): Only handle
	function descriptors on ELFv1.
	(ppc64_sysv_abi_push_dummy_call): Likewise.  On ELFv2,
	set up r12 at function entry.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
