This patchs adds plugin_input_file_t to implement get_input_file, get_view and release_input_file. The maximum memeory overhead per IR input file are about 40 bytes for plugin_input_file_t plus the memory to store input IR filename. According to http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/whopr/driver RELEASE_INPUT_FILE: Function pointer to the linker interface that releases a file descriptor for a claimed input file. The plug-in library must call this interface for each file descriptor obtained by the "get input file" interface. It must release all such file descriptors before returning from the WPA phase. However, GCC plug-in library doesn't use the "get input file" interface. It processed the IR input in the claim file handler. Since the the file descriptor opened for the IR input was unused after the claim file handler returns and GCC plug-in library before GCC 5 doesn't call the RELEASE_INPUT_FILE function pointer, ld closed the file descriptor to avoid leaking file descriptor. But this approach doesn't work with other plug-in libraries which uses the "get input file", "get view" and "release input file" interfaces. To avoid file descriptor leak with GCC prior to GCC 5 and support other plug-in libraries at the same time, we close the file descriptor only if the input IR file is a bfd_object file. This scheme doesn't work when a plug-in library needs the file descriptor and its IR is stored in bfd_object file. PR ld/17878 * plugin.c: Include <errno.h>. (errno): New. Declare if needed. (plugin_input_file_t): New. (get_input_file): Implemented. (get_view): Likewise. (release_input_file): Likewise. (add_symbols): Updated. (get_symbols): Likewise. (plugin_maybe_claim): Allocate a plugin_input_file_t. Close fd only for a bfd_object input. |

README for LD
This is the GNU linker. It is distributed with other "binary
utilities" which should be in ../binutils. See ../binutils/README for
more general notes, including where to send bug reports.
There are many features of the linker:
* The linker uses a Binary File Descriptor library (../bfd)
that it uses to read and write object files. This helps
insulate the linker itself from the format of object files.
* The linker supports a number of different object file
formats. It can even handle multiple formats at once:
Read two input formats and write a third.
* The linker can be configured for cross-linking.
* The linker supports a control language.
* There is a user manual (ld.texinfo), as well as the
beginnings of an internals manual (ldint.texinfo).
Installation
============
See ../binutils/README.
If you want to make a cross-linker, you may want to specify
a different search path of -lfoo libraries than the default.
You can do this by setting the LIB_PATH variable in ./Makefile
or using the --with-lib-path configure switch.
To build just the linker, make the target all-ld from the top level
directory (one directory above this one).
Porting to a new target
=======================
See the ldint.texinfo manual.
Reporting bugs etc
===========================
See ../binutils/README.
Known problems
==============
The Solaris linker normally exports all dynamic symbols from an
executable. The GNU linker does not do this by default. This is
because the GNU linker tries to present the same interface for all
similar targets (in this case, all native ELF targets). This does not
matter for normal programs, but it can make a difference for programs
which try to dlopen an executable, such as PERL or Tcl. You can make
the GNU linker export all dynamic symbols with the -E or
--export-dynamic command line option.
HP/UX 9.01 has a shell bug that causes the linker scripts to be
generated incorrectly. The symptom of this appears to be "fatal error
- scanner input buffer overflow" error messages. There are various
workarounds to this:
* Build and install bash, and build with "make SHELL=bash".
* Update to a version of HP/UX with a working shell (e.g., 9.05).
* Replace "(. ${srcdir}/scripttempl/${SCRIPT_NAME}.sc)" in
genscripts.sh with "sh ${srcdir}..." (no parens) and make sure the
emulparams script used exports any shell variables it sets.
