37 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,find_nearest_line)): Declare various filename
38 variables as CONST since they are set to point to a const char
39 string. Fixes compiler complaints.
41 Fri Jan 10 17:44:53 1992 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
43 * hosts/h-amix.h hosts/h-i386v4.h: Change abort() to a function

73 Wed Dec 18 17:17:59 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygnus.com)
75 * bfd-in.h, libaout.h: ANSIfy enums.
77 Wed Dec 18 16:12:25 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
79 * archive.c (normalize): created version for VMS which removes the
80 VMS directory crap from the front and end of a filename, eg turn
81 [-.foo]bar.obj;123 into bar.obj
82 (bfd_construct_extended_name_table): now writes index into an
83 extended name table in decimal - the same base used to read an
86 Wed Dec 18 14:40:39 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
88 * aout-encap.c: Fix to use aout-target.h.

95 generated by gen-aout.
96 * aout-target.h: Make a little more flexible.
97 * libaout.h, aout-target.h: Removed WORK_OUT_FILE_POSTIONS
98 macro. Instead, inline it in aout-target.h.

101 * archive.c: Add missing commas in DEFUN macro (2 places).
102 * elf.c, coffcode.h, aoutf1.h: Use ANSI functions instead of
103 Berkeley ones, now that libiberty has them:
104 bcopy->memcpy, bzero->memset, bcmp->memcmp.
105 * aoutx.h: Various touch-ups: Re-formatting, fix a cast,
106 remove unused variable.
108 Tue Dec 17 19:48:59 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
110 * elf.c (elf_core_file_matches_executable_p): Enclose corename
111 and execname inside HAVE_PROCFS ifdef since they are unused
112 when it is not defined.
114 Mon Dec 16 12:00:10 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
116 * elf.c: Flag all sections as either code or data. We can't
117 be sure what they are anyway, since ELF doesn't fit the
118 traditional model of text+data+bss very well. Add new local
119 function elf_read() to simplify code. Record entry point in
122 Thu Dec 12 21:01:22 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
124 * hosts/h-*.h: Configure fopen using ../include/fopen-*.h
125 rather than N copies of the same lines.
127 Wed Dec 11 16:39:45 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
129 * cpu-h8300.c: disassemble branch displacements correctly
130 * coff-h8300.c: put reloc offsets out in 32bits
132 * makefile.dos, configdj.bat: New files from DJ
133 * cache.c: fopen with new macros is needed for DOS.
134 * ieee.c: environ renamed to envi to stop an include file
136 * opncls.c, coff-rs6000.c: more fopens with macros.
138 Tue Dec 10 04:07:24 1991 K. Richard Pixley (rich at rtl.cygnus.com)

148 libbfd.c, libbfd.h, libcoff.h, opncls.c, reloc.c, section.c,
149 srec.c, syms.c, targets.c : all new documentation and lint
153 Sat Dec 7 07:22:09 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
155 * coffcode.h, srec.c: Lint.
157 Fri Dec 6 22:58:48 1991 K. Richard Pixley (rich at rtl.cygnus.com)
159 * Makefile.in: install using INSTALL_DATA, added standards.text
162 * configure.in: mark directory as target dependent. configure
163 nows works in objdir always so make file existence checks
166 Thu Dec 5 22:46:19 1991 K. Richard Pixley (rich at rtl.cygnus.com)
168 * Makefile.in: idestdir and ddestdir go away. Added copyrights
169 and shift gpl to v2. Added ChangeLog if it didn't exist. docdir
170 and mandir now keyed off datadir by default.
172 Wed Dec 4 10:14:17 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
174 * aoutf1.h (sunos_<size>_object_p, sunos4_callback): moved the
175 computation of arch and machine type so it's worked out before
176 some_aout_object_p is called.
177 * aoutx.h: (some_aout_object_p): don't set arch and mach to
179 * archures.c: add extra field 'section_align_power' to hold
180 default section alignment in object files.
181 * cpu-a29k.c, cpu-h8300.c, cpu-i386.c, cpu-i960.c, cpu-m68k.c,
182 cpu-m88k.c, cpu-mips.c, cpu-rs6000.c, cpu-sparc.c, cpu-vax.c:
183 initialize the new field.
184 * bout.c (b_out_callback): replace the text size, since aout
186 * aoutx.h: Documentation in the new style
188 Wed Dec 4 02:00:30 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
190 * bfd.c (bfd_get_mtime): Don't cache mtime any more; only
191 use the saved value if mtime_set is already set (intended
192 for archive files, though apparently not used yet).
194 Tue Dec 3 22:54:50 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
196 * targets.c: Revise comments about how to configure the target
197 vector, to match reality. Remove mention of obsolete methods.
198 Remove long lists of capitalized macros that turn into the same
199 thing in lowercase. Normal vector simply lists all known
200 lowercase xvec names; all other cases are handled by SELECT_VECS.
202 * config/mt-i386-coff: Set DEFAULT_VECTOR to real identifier,
205 * config/mt-i960-{coff,bout}: Use SELECT_VECS to make a short
206 list of supported targets.
208 Tue Dec 3 14:06:15 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
210 * archive.c (bsd_write_armap): The pad byte sometimes added to
211 the string table in a __.SYMDEF member is now
212 counted as part of the size of the string table.
213 This is compatible with the old ranlib, as well as Sun's.
215 Tue Dec 3 10:53:30 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
217 * srec.c: Rewrote to fix many bugs; now gets the record type
218 right, doesn't choke on input, sets the start address in an S9 and
219 fills in the filename on an S0.
221 Sat Nov 30 21:19:15 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
223 * cpu-h8300.c: Add support for MEMIND addressing mode
225 * coff-a29k.c: defined RELOC_PROCESSING to take the #ifdef out of
227 * coffcode.h: use the new macro if available
229 * elf.c (elf_corefile_note): cast malloc to avoid warning.
230 * Makefile.in: Fixed dependencies due to file rename
232 * aout-encap.c, aoutf1.h, aoutx.h, archive.c, bout.c, coff-a29k.c,
233 coff-h8300.c, coff-i386.c, coff-i960.c, coff-m68k.c, coff-m88k.c,
234 coff-mips.c, coff-rs6000.c, cpu-h300.c, elf.c, i386aout.c,
235 newos3.c, stab-syms.c, syms.c: All these files have had their
236 #includes altered to point to the new places.
238 Fri Nov 29 20:04:49 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
240 * config/mh-i386v4, config/mh-i386-elf, hosts/h-i386v4.h: New files.

248 Fri Nov 29 12:16:51 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
250 * syms.c (bfd_decode_symclass): Return 'A'
251 for symbols that are both absolute and global.
252 * archive.c (bfd_special_undocumented_glue): Return NULL
253 if bfd_ar_hdr_from_filesystem returns NULL.
255 Tue Nov 26 09:10:55 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
257 * Makefile.in: added coff-h8300
258 * configure.in: now h8 is a coff target
259 * cpu-h8300.c: fix various disassembly problems

264 added new macro RTYPE2HOWTO to take a load of #ifdefs out of
266 * coffcode.h: Started to change the way machine dependencies are
267 handled, from the nest of #ifdefs to macros defined in the
268 including coff-<foo>.c
270 Fri Nov 22 08:11:42 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
272 * aoutx.h (some_aout_object_p): Set the `executable' bit
273 if the entry point is contained in the text segment, even if the
274 text segment is at location 0.
276 * coff-mips.c, coffcode.h: Peter Schauer's patch to kludge in
277 nonstandard MIPS sections (.rdata, .sdata, etc).
279 * aoutx.h, bfd.c, coffcode.h, ieee.c, oasys.c, targets.c: CONST lint.
280 * libbfd-in.h, libbfd.h, aoutx.h, coffcode.h, elf.c, libaout.h:
281 Rename ALIGN to BFD_ALIGN to avoid conflict with BSD <sys/param.h>.
283 * host-aout.c, trad-core.c: Fix write_armap prototypes. Lint.
285 Thu Nov 21 19:56:40 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
287 * stab-syms.c, syms.c: Moved bfd_stab_name() and bfd_stab_names[]
288 from syms.c to new file stab-syms.c. Also, since GNU extended
289 type codes such as N_SETT are no longer in ../include/stab.def,
290 include them manually.
291 * stab-syms.c, aoutx.h: Renamed bfd_stab_name() and
292 bfd_stab_names[] to aout_stab_name() and aout_stab_names[].
293 * libaout.h: Added prototype for aout_stab_name().
294 * Makefile.in: Update Makefile for new stab-syms.[co].
296 Thu Nov 21 11:50:49 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
298 * libaout.h (WORK_OUT_FILE_POSITIONS): One more try at this
299 rather complicated seeming problem. Eliminate LOGICAL_ versions,
300 just make N_XXX work by excluding the header from the text segment.
301 * aoutx.h: Fix comments to match.
303 Tue Nov 19 18:49:01 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
305 * libaout.h (WORK_OUT_FILE_POSITIONS): Use new LOGICAL_TXTADDR,
306 LOGICAL_TXTOFF, LOGICAL_TXTSIZE macros to figure out numbers
307 for the "logical" text segment (i.e. never consider the exec
308 header to be part of the text segment). This change is
309 needed for consistency with various other parts of bfd and ld.
310 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,soe_aout_object_p)): Fix comment,
311 and move calculation of obj_textsec(abfd)->size to libaout.h.
312 * bfd-in.h: Removed bogus ';'.
314 * Makefile.in: Add MINIMIZE flag to select lean
315 or bloated target_vector.
316 * targets.c: Use new MINIMIZE macro, and add trad_core if needed.
317 * newsos3.c: Fixes to ../include/aout64.h remove need
318 for special N_TXTOFF macro, but require N_HEADER_IN_TEXT.
320 Mon Nov 18 12:00:59 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
322 * aout-target.h, aoutf1.h, newsos3.c: Make aout-target.h
323 handle both little and big-endian targets, with little
324 the default unless TARGET_IS_BIG_ENDIAN_P is defined.
325 * host-aout.c: Add FIXME note.
327 Sun Nov 17 13:29:39 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
329 * targets.c: Make the default target_vector contain
330 just &DEFAULT_VECTOR. This makes executables a lot smaller.
331 Old behavior can be gotten by defining ALL_TARGETS.
332 * aoutf1.h, demo64.c, i386aout.c, newsos3.c, sunos.c:
333 Factored out common code into new file aout-target.h.
334 Saves a lot of duplicate code for a.out variants.
336 Fri Nov 15 13:00:43 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
338 Get 'make headers' to work when configured with +subdirs.
339 * Makefile.in: Add $(subdir) to docdir path.
340 * doc/Makefile.in (protos): Add $(srcdir) prefix
341 to name of sed scripts.
343 Thu Nov 14 19:49:10 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
345 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,print_symbol)): Fix thinko.
346 * syms.c (bfd_stab_names): Turn on new GNU_EXTRA_STABS macro
347 to include names of N_SETT etc.
349 Thu Nov 14 19:11:13 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
351 * elf.c: Add minimal support for ELF symbol tables. Generates
352 canonical bfd symbol tables from ELF symbol tables. Change the
353 name of some functions from bfd_<name> to elf_<name>.
355 * syms.c: Trivial fix to comment to remove a redundant "to".
357 Wed Nov 13 17:02:01 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
359 * coff-{i386,m68k,m88k}.c: Change name of file format to standard
360 form that GDB recognizes as COFF.
362 Wed Nov 13 09:09:41 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
364 * ieee.c (ieee_object_p): cast NULL correctly.
365 * configure.in: added harris host
367 * coff-a29k.c: Lots of changes, most from David Wood.
369 Tue Nov 12 07:21:41 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
371 * coff-m88k.c (coff_write_armap): Just #undef it.
373 Mon Nov 11 20:30:18 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
375 * Makefile.in: standardize on MINUS_G to disable debugging
376 * coff-m88k.c: create coff armaps instead of bsd ones.
377 * opncls.c (bfd_close_all_done), (bfd_close): Mask out random bits
380 Mon Nov 11 19:07:32 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
382 * elf.c: Additions to support ELF format core files.
383 * config/mh-amix: Add -DHAVE_PROCFS to HDEFINES, since host
384 has support for /proc (all the include files in particular).
386 Mon Nov 11 18:36:47 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
388 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,find_nearest_line)): Handle the case
389 of two N_SO stabs, one for directory, and one for filename.
391 * bfd-in.h (print_vma): Factor out duplicate definition.
393 Exit a little more gracefully when malloc returns NULL.
394 * libbfd.c: New function bfd_xmalloc (malloc wrapper).
395 * opncls.c, syms.c, bout.c, aoutx.h: Replace malloc by bfd_xmalloc.
396 * libbfd.h: Rre-generated due to libbfd.c update.
398 Sat Nov 9 13:45:01 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
400 * config/mt-m68k-elf: Define DEFAULT_VECTOR as elf_big_vec.
402 * elf.c (elf_object_p): Don't try to create a bfd section for
403 the first ELF section header. It is just a placeholder.
405 Sat Nov 9 03:04:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
407 * coff-rs6000.c, config/mh-rs6000: Make it work on archive and
408 core files, when compiling native.
409 * hosts/h-rs6000.h: Define FASCIST_FDOPEN for bfd_fdopenr.
411 FIXME: The aoutf1.h change below needs to be reversed back
414 Thu Nov 7 11:03:55 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
416 * coffcode.h: Defined new macros [PUT|GET]LINENO_LNNO for
417 manipulation of lnno fields in lineno structs in a coff-<f>.h
418 independent way. Override it in coff-<f>.h to your favourite
419 number if you don't have a 16bit lnno field. (coff_swap_lineno_in)
420 (coff_swap_lineno_out): modified to use the new macros.
422 Mon Nov 4 11:38:33 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
424 * aoutf1.h (sunos4_callback): Now defaults to 68020 rather than
425 unknown arch when the magic number doesn't specify the
426 architecture, since some OSs (eg old sun3s) don't set the number, and
427 020 is probably the right answer anyway.
429 Sun Nov 3 12:07:08 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
431 * hosts/h-news.h, hosts/h-rtbsd.h:
432 Get rid of MISSING_VFPRINTF, since libiberty provides one.
433 * bfd-in.h (bfd_print_symbol_type_hopw enum): Add new option
434 bfd_print_symbol_nm, for use by nm.
435 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,print_symbol)): Add code for new
436 bfd_print_symbol_nm option, to print in nm format.
437 * coffcode.h (coff_print_symbol), ieee.c (ieee_print_symbol)
438 oasys.c (oasys_print_symbol): Provide stub implementations
439 for bfd_print_symbol_nm.
440 * syms.c: New function bfd_decode_symclass, used by nm printer.
441 New function bfd_stab_name to look up string name of stab code.
443 Sat Nov 2 14:26:03 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
445 * Makefile.in: Added ctor.c
446 * archures.c (bfd_default_arch_struct) added
447 bfd_default_reloc_type_lookup.
448 * coffcode.h: removed a load of #if 0ed code.
449 (coff_compute_file_section_positions): now works out the section
450 alignment and size correctly in all cases.
451 (coff_get_symtab): looks for constructor symbols and calls the
452 right function when they're found. (coff_canonicalize_reloc):
453 knows when a section is full of constructors and does the right
455 * cpu-m88k.c: Added default_reloc_type lookup to the architecture
457 * libbfd-in.h: (bfd_default_reloc_type_lookup) defun added.
458 * libcoff.h: removed #if 0ed code
459 * reloc.c: (bfd_reloc_code_real_type) added BFD_RELOC_CTOR for
460 arch independent constructor relocation type.
461 (bfd_reloc_type_lookup): removed the comment "this will go away"
462 since it won't. (bfd_howto_32): stolen from 88k, this is a 32bit
463 reloc which is used when BFD_RELOC_CTOR falls through to give a
464 default 32bit reloc for constructors.
465 (bfd_default_reloc_type_lookup): added.
466 * aoutf1.h: fixed SEGMENT_SIZE typo.
468 Thu Oct 31 18:23:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
470 * coff-rs6000.c: Change name to "aixcoff-rs6000", to avoid
471 matching prefix "coff".
472 * coffcode.h (coff_swap_aux_in, coff_swap_aux_out): Handle
473 rs/6000 csect records.
475 Sun Oct 27 16:56:58 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
477 * coff-m88k.c, targets.c: change name of m88k_bcs to m88kbcs

483 Fri Oct 25 02:48:19 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
485 * Rename COFF-related files in `coff-ARCH.c' form.
486 coff-a29k.c, coff-i386.c, coff-i960.c, coff-m68k.c, coff-m88k.c,
487 coff-mips.c, coff-rs6000.c to be exact.
489 * Makefile.in: Only supply TARGET_DEFAULTS to targets.c, reducing
491 * config/mt-*: Ditto.
493 Thu Oct 24 22:40:07 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
495 RS/6000 support, by Metin G. Ozisik, Mimi Phûông-Thåo Võ, and
496 John Gilmore. Archive support from Damon A. Permezel.
498 * Makefile.in: Add cpu-rs6000.c and rs6000coff.c.
499 * configure.in: Add rs6000 case.
500 * targets.c: Add rs6000 vector.
501 * archures.c: Add rs6000, fix comment on romp.
502 * bfd-in.h (enum bfd_error): Add no_debug_section error.
503 * libcoff-in.h (struct coff_tdata): Remove unused string_table.
504 * bfd.c (bfd_errmsgs): Add no_debug_section error message.
505 * section.c (bfd_make_section): Return NULL on attempt to create
507 * coffcode.h (bfd_swap_reloc_in): Handle r_type and r_size.
508 (bfd_swap_aouthdr_in): Handle lots more members.
509 (make_a_section_from_file): If section has already been seen,
510 just return false rather than overwriting it.
511 (coff_real_object_p): Understand incoming magic numbers.
512 (coff_set_flags): Understand outgoing magic numbers.
513 (coff_compute_section_file_positions): outgoing aouthdr magic #.
514 (build_debug_section): Add fn for reading debug string section.
515 (get_normalized_symtab): Handle symbol names in debug string section.
516 Remove unused obj_string_table.
517 (coff_slurp_symbol_table): Handle rs6000-specific storage classes.
518 * aoutx.h (translate_from_native_sym_flags, N_SET*): Check for
519 existing section before making one.
520 * cpu-rs6000.c: New file.
521 * rs6000coff.c: New file.
523 Thu Oct 24 02:03:24 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
525 * elf.c: Add partial support for ELF format corefiles. Still needs
526 support for extracting registers from corefiles.
528 * config/t-m68k-elf: Set DEFAULT_VECTOR to elf_big_vec.
530 * config/{h-amix,h-dgux,h-irix3,h-ultra3}: For systems where
531 RANLIB is defined as echo, send the output to /dev/null to help
532 reduce clutter in the output from doing a make.
534 Mon Oct 21 17:48:48 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
536 * hosts/h-vaxult.h: Remove malloc/free decls covered in stdlib.h.
537 Fix HOST_PAGE_SIZE and HOST_SEGMENT_SIZE. From David Taylor.
539 Mon Oct 21 09:34:11 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at rtl.cygnus.com)
541 * coffcode.h (coff_compute_section_file_positions): make it pad
542 section size out if there are alignment restrictions so that the
543 image will be ok on a system where section positions are worked
544 out by accumulating sizes rather than from the section headers.
545 * targets.c (proto write_armap). Changed orl_count to unsigned.
546 * opncls.c (bfd_close_all_done). Added so that generative
547 programs like gas can close a bfd without causing bfd confusion.
548 * libbfd.h (changed becuase of protos)
549 * amdcoff.c: messed with the way that jmp displacements are
550 calcualated. This may not yet be totally correct.
551 * archive.c (coff_write_armap): rewrote the way that ranlibs are
553 * coffcode.h (fixup_symbol_value): now doesn't core dump if a non
554 abs symbol has no section (like a register symbol).
555 (coff_write_symbol) now zeros auxent before filling it up to help
556 with sensitive applications.
557 * libbfd.c (bfd_write_bigendian_4byte_int): added.
559 Wed Oct 16 22:58:45 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
561 * bfd.c: Make sure we don't get a macro strerror().
562 * opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): If FASCIST_FDOPEN, use "r", not "r+".
563 * trad-core.c (trad_unix_core_file_failing_command): Suppress
564 attempt to recover command, ifdef NO_CORE_COMMAND.
565 * hosts/h-tahoe.h: Add FASCIST_FDOPEN and NO_CORE_COMMAND;
567 * hosts/h-i386v.h: Use <utime.h>, not <sys/utime.h>, unlike POSIX.
569 Wed Oct 16 12:43:49 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
571 * archive.c (bsd_write_argmap): The size of the ranlib structures
572 should not include the size field itself.
573 * aoutx.h, libaout.h (NAME(aout, sizeof_headers)): Use
574 adata(abfd)->exec_bytes_size field instead of constant macro,
575 because aoutx.h compiles to a simple .o file shared by
576 all 32-bits a.out targets.
578 Wed Oct 16 11:11:05 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
580 * configure.in: Allow i386-sco-sysv.
581 * bout.c: Remove unused i960_align; lint dummy core file handlers.
584 * host-aout.c: New strategy. We use common code, include files,
585 and data structures to handle the file, but set a few parameters
586 from the host's config file (page size, text start addr, etc).
587 * libaout.h: Define HP BSD machine types.
588 * aoutf1.h: Handle reading a.outs with these types.
590 * trad-core.c: Pass the u.u_ar0 value as the negative of the
591 virtual-memory-address of the .reg section. We can't just make a
592 section for "all the regs and nothing else" because only GDB knows
593 exactly where the regs are (scattered around the upage and stack).
594 Clean up memory allocation. Remove big- and little-endian
595 vectors, replace with single vector; this only runs on the host,
596 in host byte order. Replace byteswap routines with aborts in case
598 * targets.c: There's only one trad_core_vec now.
599 * aoutf1.h (sunos_core_file_p): VMA of .reg* now needs to be 0.
601 Tue Oct 15 08:29:03 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
603 * hosts/h-amix.h (free): Fix prototype.
605 * aoutx.h: Don't use NULL as an integer, for braindead systems
606 that declare it as (void *)0. (From Peter Schauer.)
608 Mon Oct 14 17:20:47 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
610 * opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): Add parentheses to avoid reported
611 problem with bad Ultrix system headers.
612 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,set_section_contents)): Try to handle the
613 various kinds of alignments for the various kinds of
616 Mon Oct 14 14:23:10 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
618 * doc/Makefile: Don't assume . is on the path (from James Clark).
620 Fri Oct 11 22:45:14 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
622 * Makefile.in: Avoid Sun Make VPATH bugs.
623 * targets.c: Declare trad_core vectors extern.
625 Fri Oct 11 13:03:02 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
627 * coffcode.h: Moved ALIGN macro to libbfd.h. Removed i960_align.
628 * libbfd.h: Moved ALIGN macro here.
629 * bout.c (b_out_callback): Replace i960_align by align_power.
631 * libaout.h (struct aoutdata): Added fields page_size,
632 segment_size and exec_bytes_size. These help generic code
633 (in aoutx.h and libaout.h) to figure out where to align
634 the various segments in a demand paged file.
635 * libaout.h (WRITE_HEADER): Use new (struct aoutdata) fields
636 to decide if the exec header counts in a_text (text segment size).
637 Also, assume D_PAGED flag is set; don't set it here.
638 * bout.c (b_out_callback): Add initialization of
639 adata fields page_size, segment_size, and exec_bytes_size.
640 * host-aout.c (NAME(host_aout, callback) and
641 NAME(host_aout,mkobject): Ditto.
642 * i386aout.c (aout386_callback) and new aout386_mkobject): Ditto.
643 * newos3.c (newsos3_callback) and new newsos_mkobject): Ditto.
644 * aoutf1.c (sunos4_callback) and new sunos_mkobject): Ditto.
645 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,some_aout_object_p)): Don't subtract
646 EXEC_BYTES_SIZE from the a_test size; this is only appropriate
647 for some systems (mainly sunos), so do it in the callback instead.
648 Same routine: Add stuff to the THIS_IS_ONLY_DOCUMENTATION comment.
649 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,set_section_contents): Change the way
650 filepos and size of sections are carried out to support
651 older styles of demand paged executables.
654 Fri Oct 11 12:33:36 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
656 * bfd-in.h: Added more macros to COFF_SWAP_TABLE.
657 * bfd.c: Added macros to enable gas to swap coff records.
658 * coffcode.h: Make the coff_swap_*_out routines return the number
659 of bytes swapped, and cleaned up their prototypes.
660 * configure.in: Added ebmon/coff support
661 * ecoff.c: Changed null definitions of coff_swap_*_out to conform
663 * targets.c: Added new entry points for coff swapping
665 Fri Oct 11 03:01:52 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
667 Restructure configuration scheme for bfd, binutils, ld.
669 * include/sys/h-*.h: Move to bfd/hosts/h-*.h.
670 * configure.in: Revise to symlink sysdep.h to hosts/h-xxx.h.
671 Change some config names to match other dirs.
672 * *.c: Include bfd.h before sysdep.h, so ansidecl and PROTO()
674 * Makefile.in: Use -I. to get sysdep.h. Remove refs to
676 * cpu-i960.c: Strncmp needed a length arg.
677 * ecoff.c: Don't ever call trad_unix_core_file_p from here.
678 * i386aout.c: Remove dead N_TXTOFF override.
679 * trad-core.c: Don't disable the whole file if SUN4_SYS.
680 * config/: Rename some config files to match up h-*.h names.
681 Remove all the HOST_SYS definitions from the config files.
682 * hosts/h-amix.h, h-i386v.h: Define POSIX_UTIME, not USG.
683 * hosts/h-hp9000.h: Remove USG comment.
684 * hosts/h-rs6000.h: Include <stdlib.h> for malloc.
685 * hosts/h-news.h, h-sparc-64.h: New config files that had
686 previously been kludged in the <sysdep.h> file.
688 Thu Oct 10 17:54:08 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
690 * config/*: trad-core support is HOST dependent, not target
691 dependent. Target config files only set DEFAULT_VECTOR and/or
692 other vector elements. Exception: when host-aout.c is in use,
693 in which case we're forced to assume we're native (hp, vax,
694 tahoe). Rename XDEPFILES to HDEPFILES.
695 * Makefile.in: Rename XDEPFILES.
696 * config/h-sun*: Don't force static linking.
697 * trad-core.c: Document how to use it nowadays.
698 * i386aout.c, newsos3.c: Clean up.
699 * i386coff.c: Allow 386 coff files to be used as core files too
700 (for reading core files from embedded systems).
702 Tue Oct 8 15:30:39 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
704 * Add i386aout.c for a.out support on the i386.
706 Tue Oct 8 12:18:54 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygnus.com)
708 * reloc.c, section.c, syms.c, targets.c: correct info-node
709 structure in *doc* comments.
710 doc/Makefile: stop hiding complaints from makeinfo.
712 Sun Oct 6 19:10:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
714 * aoutx.h (...some_aout_object_p): Take a third parameter,
715 the internal_exec struct, and avoid ever looking at an
716 external_exec. All callers changed to read the entire
717 external_exec struct, swap and check its magic number,
718 swap in the whole structure, and pass the swapped-in version to
720 * bout.c: Bring into modern era. Use single _object_p routine
721 for big- aand little-endian. Provide internal and external
722 exec header structs. Use separate swap-in and swap-out routines.
724 * libaout.h: Move struct internal_exec from ../include/aout64.h
725 to here. Add obj_symbol_entry_size to struct aoutdata.
726 * aoutx.h (...some_aout_object_p): Set obj_symbol_entry_size.
728 * ../include/aout64.h: Change EXTERNAL_LIST_SIZE to
729 EXTERNAL_NLIST_SIZE. Callers changed.
731 Fri Oct 4 18:18:46 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
733 * bfd.c: Remove strerror() to libiberty.
735 * elf.c: Remove elf_set_section_contents, use generic one. Lint.
736 * libbfd-in.h, libbfd.c: Add bfd_generic_set_section_contents.
737 * libbfd.c (bfd_generic_{get,set}_section_contents): Check that
738 last byte of transfer, not first byte, is within the section.
740 * host-aout.c: Remove `BSD' archive support. Lint.
742 * archures.c: Rename `struct bfd_arch_info_struct' to `struct
743 bfd_arch_info'. Rename `typedef bfd_arch_info_struct_type' to
744 `bfd_arch_info_type'. All uses changed.
745 * reloc.c: Rename `bfd_reloc_status_enum_type' to
746 `bfd_reloc_status_type'. Rename `bfd_reloc_code_enum_real_type'
747 to `bfd_reloc_code_real_type'. (This seems to be a misnomer,
748 it needs a better name.) All uses changed.
749 * targets.c: Rename `enum target_flavour_enum' to `enum
750 target_flavour', and remove the `_enum' from all of the enum
751 values themselves. All uses changed.
753 * configure.in, config/h-i386mach: i386 mach host.
754 * config/t-i386-aout: Use host-aout.c.
756 * trad-core.c: Give it its own xvec's to make it independent
757 of other file formats.
758 * ecoff.c, host-aout.c: Remove refs to trad-core.
759 * config/t-dec3100, t-hp300bsd, t-tahoe, t-vax: Define TRAD_CORE.
760 * targets.c: #ifdef TRAD_CORE, include it in the vector.
762 Fri Oct 4 17:38:03 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
764 * reloc.c: Extended NEWHOWTO macro
765 * ieee.c: Changed the way 8bit pcrel is done
766 * cpu-h8300.c: got the registers in the right order
768 Thu Oct 3 19:39:55 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
770 * bfd-in.h: enum boolean => enum bfd_boolean for SVR4. Gumby's
771 prediction is vindicated!
773 * bfd-in.h, libbfd-in.h, doc/Makefile, doc/tolibbfd, doc/intobfd:
774 Remove refs to howto.c, since Steve forgot.
776 Thu Oct 3 07:49:21 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
778 * elf.c: took the abort out of set_arch_mach so that objdump -i will
779 still work. Now allows any architecture/machine to be set.
781 Wed Oct 2 13:50:35 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
783 * howto.c deleted and moved code to reloc.c
785 * libbfd.h, libbfd-in.h removed $id stuff for real
787 * cpu-h8300.c Made it match various different spellings of h8300.
789 * archures.c: Took out the first char filter which made it only
790 look for a cpu/arch match when the first chars of supplied and
791 tested names were the same.
793 * targets.c removed oasys stuff, pending someone to fix the bugs
797 Tue Oct 1 12:29:44 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
799 * Makefile.in, configure.in, targets.c, elf.c: Add preliminary
800 ELF support good enough for GDB.
801 * configure.in, config/h-amix, config/t-m68k-elf: Handle
802 m68k-cbm-svr4 host and target.
803 * config/t-m68k-coff, t-m88k-coff, t-m88k-aout: Make files nonempty
804 so `diff' and `patch' can cope.
806 Tue Oct 1 11:24:31 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
808 * archures.c: removed texinfo error
810 * init.c: added texinfo hooks, and removed initialization error
813 * libcoff-in.h, libbfd-in.h removed $id field so cvs can merge
816 Tue Oct 1 05:02:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
818 * cpu-i960.c: Avoid numerical count of initializers.
820 Vax Ultrix changes from David Taylor <taylor@think.com>:
821 * host-aout.c: Make little-endian vector really little-endian.
822 * configure.in: Separate vax and tahoe cases, handle ultrix.
823 * config/t-vax: Add trad-core.o.
824 * config/h-vaxult: New host system.
826 Mon Sep 30 15:13:46 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
828 * bfd-in.h VERSION, change version number to 0.18, this makes a
829 gap, but now is the same as the linker version number.
831 * cpu-a29k.c, cpu-i386.c, cpu-m68k.c, cpu-mips.c, cpu-vax.c,
832 cpu-h8300.c, cpu-i960.c, cpu-m88k.c, cpu-sparc.c: added. These
833 files will eventually contain processor specific bits for bfd,
834 like strange relocation information and dis/assembly. So far only
835 the H8 has been even partially done. This work also ties in with
836 the change in handling architectures.
838 * amdcoff.c: (a29k_reloc) fix error message.
840 * aout-f1.h: (choose_reloc_size) now calls bfd_get_arch to
841 discover the architecture of the bfd. (sunos4_callback) calls the
842 function bfd_set_arch_mach rather than stuffing stuff directly
843 into the bfd. (sunos4_write_object_contents), changed names of
846 * aoutx.h: (set_arch_mach) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach to
847 setup the environment.
849 * archive.c: (bfd_slurp_coff_armap) coff archives always have the
850 headers in big endian format, regardless of the endianess of the
853 * archures.c: totally changed. Now an architecture is represented
854 with a pointer to an info structure rather than an enumerated type
855 and a long. The old info is available as two elements in the
856 structure. Future enhancements to architecure support will
857 involve pointers to methods being placed into the info structure.
859 * bfd.c: changed the definition of the bfd structure for the new
862 * bout.c: (b_out_set_arch_mach) changed to use the new
863 architecture mechanism.
865 * coffcode.h: (coff_set_arch_mach, coff_set_flags) changed to use
866 the new architecture mechanism.
868 * configure.in: added h8 stuff.
870 * ieee.c: too many changes to note. Now ieee files written with
871 bfd gas and ld can be read by gld and ieee only linkers and
874 * libbfd.c, libbfd.h: changed prototype of bfd_write.
876 * newsos3.c: (newos3_callback) now calls bfd_set_arch_mach rather
877 than fixing the structure directly.
879 * oasys.c: (oasys_object_p) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach rather
880 than fixing the structure directly.
882 * opncls.c: (new_bfd) makes sure that bfd_init has been called
883 before opening a bfd.
885 * srec.c: (srec_set_arch_mach) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach
886 rather than fixing the structure directly.
888 * targets.c: (target_vector) now by defining SELECT_VECS (perhaps
889 in the t/hmake file) a user can select which backends they want
890 linked with bfd without changing the source.
892 * init.c: new, looks after initializing modules.
894 * howto.c: for future use, will allow an application to work out
895 what cookie to use as a handle on a relcoatio howto.
897 Mon Sep 30 13:31:15 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
899 * srec.c: Better error checking, partly from Peter Schauer.
900 (srec_object_p): Avoid assuming any file that starts with 'S' is
901 an S-record file! (Check for 3 uppercase-hex digits after it.)
902 (ISHEX): Define new macro for checking supposedly hex characters.
903 (pass_over): Treat as EOF any S-record line that:
904 * doesn't have hex in either size character
905 * produces a size larger than 0x7F
906 * has an unrecognized type number
908 Thu Sep 26 15:27:29 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
910 * aoutf1.h, aoutx.h, bout.c, coffcode.h, host-aout.c, oasys.c,
911 opncls.c: Lint (saber actually).
913 Thu Sep 26 11:24:24 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
915 * libaout.h (WRITE_HEADERS): Set header's a_text field always.
916 * newsos3.c: Fixed two types: newos3 -> newsos3.
917 * reloc.c (bfd_perform_relocation): Fix pc-relative relocation
918 to use correct segment.
920 Mon Sep 23 18:24:34 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
922 * aoutx.h (print_symbol): Handle missing symbol->name.
924 Fri Sep 20 12:26:01 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygnus.com)
926 * aoutf1.h (swapcore_sparc): Change name of USRSTACK, fix comment
929 Tue Sep 17 17:23:49 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygnus.com)
931 * oasys.c, configure.in, config/h-irix3, config/t-irix3:
932 add sgi/irix support.
934 Thu Sep 12 14:29:09 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
936 Changes for the AMD 29000 Ultracomputer port from David Wood.
939 * opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): Handle NO_FCNTL.
941 * Makefile.in: Make subdirs work by using $(INCDIR) in the
944 * coffcode.h (coff_real_object_p): Pass information about the
945 current file's coff symbol format to BFD via the coff_data struct.
946 (coff_find_nearest_line): obj_icof => coff_data.
947 (coff_swap_sym_{in,out}): Check that SYMNMLEN == E_SYMNMLEN.
948 (coff_swap_aux_{in,out}): Check that FILNMLEN == E_FILNMLEN
949 and DIMNUM == E_DIMNUM.
950 * configure.in: Handle a29k-*-* hosts, and targets
951 a29k-*-coff, a29k-*-aout, and a29k-*-sym1.
952 * libcoff-in.h: Add local_n_btmask, local_n_btshft,
953 local_n_tmask, local_n_tshift, local_symesz, local_auxesz,

987 Fri Aug 23 13:51:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
989 * aoutx.h: Add information on host-aout.c and how to configure
990 to use it, to the manual.
991 * configure.in: Tix typo.
992 * ecoff.c: If compiling for DEC3100, use trad_unix core files,
993 else dummy out the core file support.

999 Thu Aug 22 22:20:19 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygint.cygnus.com)
1001 * aoutx.h, coffcode.h: saberized.
1003 Thu Aug 22 11:27:06 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)

1015 Update to modern (32/64-bit) a.out naming conventions.
1016 Include a large chunk of ../include/a.out.gnu.h to get macros that
1017 are not defined by the system include files.
1018 (host_aout_{32,64}_write_object_contents): Use the WRITE_HEADERS
1019 macro used by the other a.out implementations.
1020 * Makefile.in: Give dependencies to OPTIONAL_BACKENDS.
1022 Wed Aug 21 14:33:06 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)
1024 * Makefile.in: use targets "bfd.dvi" and "bfd.ps" instead of
1025 texdoc and psdoc; make these depend on generated .texi's
1027 * scanit, (new) unPROTO: turn PROTO macros into ANSI declarations in
1030 * bfd.c, reloc.c, syms.c: minor spelling/wording fixes in doc
1033 * Makefile.in, awkscan-ip, awkscan-p, intobfd,

1074 Wed Jul 31 09:53:52 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1076 * all files: update copyright notices for GPL version 2.
1077 Install header comments and attribute most modules to their
1078 authors. BFD's name is now officially "Binary File Descriptor",
1079 so remove any conflicting pejoratives.
1080 archures.h: Consists solely of comments; remove it.
1082 Fri Jul 26 18:11:34 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)

1097 * amdcoff.c bfd.texinfo Makefile.in : Folded in changes for amd
1098 29k coff by David Wood (wood@lab.ultra.nyu.edu).
1100 Thu Jul 4 09:53:16 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1102 * Everything: created some new files, core.c format.c, reloc.c,
1103 section.c and syms.c to split the functionality a bit better.
1104 Cleaned up the rest of the files a bit, and added some
1108 Mon Jul 1 13:29:47 1991 David Wood (wood at david.ultra.nya.edu)
1110 * opncls.c, ../include/sys/h-sun3.h ../include/sys/h-sun4.h: fcntl
1111 really takes 3 arguments, patched code and ammended prototypes.
1113 Fri Jun 14 13:19:40 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1115 * ../include/bfd.h (struct bfd_target): Added new field
1116 "align_power_min" which contains the minimum alignment for a
1117 section. This is used in coff_new_section_hook. The field
1118 insertion necessitates an update of all backends..
1120 * aoutf1.h jump table field inserted
1122 * archive.c(snarf_ar_hdr)(bfd_slurp_coff_armap) can now parse dgux style extended
1125 * bout.c(b_out_squirt_out_relocs) fix to assertion tests. Jump
1126 table field inserted.
1128 * coffcode.h(just about everything) Now patches up symbol tables
1129 using a different mechanism. The Intel major bug has been fixed,
1130 and the linker can self host on the Aviion and be debugged with
1133 * ecoff.c: new include and jump table patch, i386coff.c: new
1134 include and jump table patch, icoff.c: new include and jump table
1135 patch, ieee.c: can now read archives containing ieee modules.,
1136 libcoff.h: added (combined_entry_type), libieee.h: uped max
1137 sections to 20, m68kcoff.c: new include and jump table patch,
1138 m88kbcs.c: new include and jump table patch, oasys.c: various bugs
1139 fixed. opncls.c: added bfd_alloc_grow and bfd_alloc_finish.
1140 srec.c: jump table patch. trad-code.c fixed #IF typeo
1142 Fri Jun 7 12:35:46 1991 Sean Fagan (sef at cygint.cygnus.com)
1144 * coffcode.h (coff_swap_aux_in): added else case to deal with
1145 filenames less than 9 characters.
1148 Thu Jun 6 18:27:38 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1150 * ../include/oasys.h oasys.c (oasys_archive_p): fixed so it works
1152 * srec.c: now allows any number of sections to be created in a
1153 file. Outputs addresses of the right length.
1155 Thu May 30 15:30:10 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1157 * bfd.c (bfd_check_format): Fixed problem where when a defaulted
1158 target didn't match, the format got set to the attempted match,
1159 breaking a future test.
1161 *../include/i386coff.h : fixed typo in type field with size
1163 * i386coff.c icoff.c m88k-bcs.c ecoff.c ../include/bfd.h : Added
1164 support in the jump table for the swapping routines exported to
1165 gdb. Now gdb works with the 386.
1167 Tue May 28 17:21:43 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1169 * Merge in changes from gdb-3.95 release.
1170 Makefile.in: Allow hmake and tmake files to add OFILES.
1172 bfd.c: support specific targets as well as searching. When
1173 searching, take default target in preference to others.
1175 ieee.c, oasys.c: Avoid using the "tdata" macros left of assignment.
1176 liba.out.h: Don't hard-code file offsets; use N_ macros for them.
1177 libbfd.h: Support specific targets as well as searching.
1178 opncls.c: Support specific targets as well as searching.
1179 targets.c: Search is short-circuited if default target matches.
1180 liboasys.c, libieee.c: Undo bothner changes that make macros
1181 work to the left of assignment, but which depend on the
1182 representations of different pointer types being the same.
1184 Fri May 24 18:56:52 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1186 * i386coff.c: created.
1187 * coffcode.h: added support for 386.
1188 * Makefile.in: added support for 386.
1189 * ../include/i386coff.h: created
1191 Wed May 22 07:26:38 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1193 * coffcode.h: removed all put_x_<sizes>
1194 * libbfd.c: Changed #ifdef __GNUC__ to #ifdef HOST_64_BIT, Added
1198 Tue May 21 08:58:58 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1200 * opncls.c: Changed obstack_chunk_alloc use xmalloc
1202 Mon May 20 17:12:17 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1204 * everything: Removed sysdep.h from bfd.h and put back into files
1205 from which it was split out. Now 64 bit version is built with a
1206 -DHOST_64_BIT="long long" on the compile line.
1209 Fri May 17 19:35:26 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1211 Changed all the [get|put][name] routines to use [get|put]_[size
1214 Put in support for 64 bit work. Now two versions of bfd may be
1215 generated, according to the state of TARGET_64_BIT, one which is
1216 32 bit only, and one which is 64/32 bits.
1217 Created new back end 'demo64' to test 64 bit functionality.
1219 Renamed some files to work on DOS.
1221 * archive.c: lint * bfd.c: prototypes and lint. * ecoff.c: added
1222 64bit transfer * icoff.c: added 64bit transfer * ieee.c: name
1223 chage, 64 bit transfer. * liba.out.h: Split out common code from
1224 sunos and newsos into liba.out. Name changes and prototype mods. *
1225 libbfd.c: lint and prototypes, extra 64bit swaps. * libbfd.h:
1226 prototypes for new functions. * libcoff.h: lint * libieee.h: make
1227 work on DOS * liboasys.h: make work on DOS * m88k-bcs.c: Name
1228 change and 64bit stuff.* newsos3.c: common code removed, new jump
1229 table. * oasys.c: Name change * opncls.c: Portability fixes *
1230 srec.c: Name changes * sunos.c: Removed comon code. * targets.c:
1231 Added demo * aout32, aout64.c include aoutx.h * bout.c: used to
1232 be called b.out.c * coffcode.h: used to be called coff-code.h, now
1233 64bit ized. * demo64.c: 64 bit a.out back end
1239 Thu May 16 16:02:07 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1241 * libieee.h: Make ieee_data and ieee_ar_data macros usable
1242 on LHS of assignment, even when using old compilers.
1243 * liboasys.h: Ditto for oasys_data and oasys_ar_data.
1244 * m68kcoff.c: Add enum-to-int casts to accomodate old compilers.
1245 * newsos3.c: Fix definitions of SEGMENT_SIZE and TEXT_START_ADDR.
1246 * opncls.c: Define S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, S_IXOTH if undefined.
1247 * targets.c: Add declaration of newsos3_vec.
1250 Mon May 13 10:03:29 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1252 * aout.c: fixxed some of the problems with filepos calculation.
1253 (swap_ext_reloc): fixed problem with creation of relocs.
1254 (aout_set_section_contents): fixed filepos problem
1256 * coff-code.h: (swap_filehdr_in, swap_filehdr_out) add.
1257 (swap_filehdr) delete. Changed all the usage of bfd_h_put_x.
1258 (swap_aouthdr_in, swap_aouthdr_out) add. (swap_aouthdr) delete.
1259 (coff_real_object_p) cleaned up, added MIPS. (coff_object_p)
1260 cleaned up. (coff_write_object_contents) cleaned up.
1262 * ecoff.c: Totally different. Now supports ecoff fully.
1264 * icoff.c: fixed problems in relocation callout.
1266 * libcoff.h: (struct icofdata) removed hdr structure from tdata.
1268 * m68kcoff.c: updated target vector.
1270 * sunos.c: (choose_reloc_size) added: (sunos4_callback) calls
1271 choose_reloc_size. (sunos4_write_object_contents) now calls
1272 choose_reloc_size so outputs relocs correctly, also calculates the
1273 size of the sections correctly.
1277 Fri May 10 16:58:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1279 Merge Per Bothner's changes to modularize BFD a.out a bit.
1281 * libbfd.h, libbfd.c (bfd_generic_get_section_contents): Add.
1282 * ieee.c: Cast enums to int before comparing them, for brain-
1284 * coff-code.h: Remove coff_get_section_contents, and use the
1285 generic one instead.
1287 * aout.c: Derive new module from sunos.c, containing generic
1288 support code for all kinds of a.out files.
1290 * sunos.c: Remove all code that goes in aout.c. Split out
1291 machine dependent followup in sunos4_object_p into
1292 sunos4_callback. Use JUMP_TABLE(aout) for the transver vector,
1293 and redefine only the names we CHANGE, not all the names. Drop
1294 the little-endian vector, and rename the vector as sunos4 rather
1297 * b.out.c: Use aout.c routines for most of the work. Slight
1298 changes for the new regime. Remove close_and_cleanup and
1299 get_section_contents in favor of generics. New transfer vector
1302 * newsos.c: New support for Sony NEWS, another a.out format.
1304 * ecoff.c: Remove close_and_cleanup. New tvec regime.
1305 * icoff.c, m88k-bcs.c: Add write_contents to tvec.
1306 * ieee.c, oasys.c: Remove close_and_cleanup, add write_contents
1308 * opncls.c (bfd_close): Call format-dependent write_contents
1309 routine, if writing, before calling target-dependent
1310 close_and_cleanup routine (which is now always generic, I think).
1311 * srec.c: Use bfd_alloc instead of malloc. Remove
1312 close_and_cleanup and move code from it to
1313 srec_write_object_contents. Add write_contents to tvec.
1314 * targets.c: Remove a.out little vector, replace a.out big
1315 vector with SunOS vector. FIXME: Need Vax support again now.
1317 * libbfd.h: Add write_contents format-dependent-vector to the
1318 bfd_target vector. Supply a generic close_and_cleanup routine.
1319 * liba.out.h: Handle the new aout.c split. Add prototypes for
1320 all routines defined in aout.c. Rename "sunos" things to "aout"
1321 things. Add a few fields where needed for various formats.
1322 * Makefile.in: Add aout.c and newsos.c.
1324 * archive.c, ieee.c, oasys.c: Lint.
1326 Fri May 10 12:34:48 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1329 changed forward declaration struct stat; to reduce warnings. Changed
1330 comment on bfd_h_<x>_x.
1332 * ../include/m68kcoff.h, ../include/intel-coff.h,
1333 ../include/m88k-bcs.h
1334 Now there are two incarnations of relocs, linenos and syments. One for
1335 internal digestion, and one full of char arrays for I/O. The original
1336 names have gone to detect errors.
1338 * Makefile.in, m68kcoff.c, targets.c
1339 Test new structure code with a 68k coff implementaion
1341 * coff-code.h, icoff.c, coffswap.c, libcoff.h
1342 Fixed all the places where there were problems with the size and
1343 alignments of structures on disk and structures in memory. #ifed out
1344 all the code in coffswap.c, since it should be done using the target
1347 Thu May 9 11:00:45 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1349 * ieee.c (do_one, ieee_slurp_section_data): now supports the load
1350 multiple reloc command.
1352 * sunos.c (sunos4_set_section_contents): Made it so that sections
1353 are always padded to their alignment size.
1355 Sat May 4 15:49:43 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1357 * archive.c, bfd.c, coff-code.h, opncls.c, sunos.c, trad-core.c:
1358 Clean up types and such (saber C problems).
1359 * ecoff.c: Clean up types and such. Remove routines that are
1360 not used. Fix up reading and swapping of shorts from files.
1362 Notes on bfd-0.5.2-patch1a, from Per Bothner:
1364 * a.out.vax.c: Remove two bogus "static" from prototypes.
1366 * ecoff.c: Got rid of lots of non-working junk (that had
1367 been copied directly from coff-code.h).
1368 Updated to be consistent with updates to icoff.c and coff-code.h.
1370 * libbfd.h: Added definitions for S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, and S_IXOTH
1371 if they're missing (as they are in (BDS-4.3-based) NewsOS-3).
1373 * sunos.c (n_txtoff): (Re-)Add support for sony. This is a kludge,
1374 but until the target_vector is automatically generated,
1375 it's as good as any. Note that the text offset is the only
1376 difference between NewsOS and SunOs (including magic numbers).
1377 (Most of the sunos_* routines should to renamed bsd_*
1378 and move to a bsd.c file. Then (and when the target_vector
1379 is automatically generated) it might make sense to create
1380 a separate Sony target.)
1382 * sysdep.h: Don't declare fread and fwrite. Causes trouble
1383 on some systems, and doesn't help on others.
1384 Similarly, only define X_OK if not already defined.
1386 * trad-core.c: Don't include sys/stat.h - at least
1387 on NewsOS 3, it has already been included.
1389 Tue Mar 5 01:47:57 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1391 * coff-code.h (bfd_coff_swap_sym, bfd_coff_swap_aux,
1392 bfd_coff_swap_lineno): Export the routines that byte-swap COFF
1393 symbol tables if necessary when reading them in, so gdb can use
1394 them. Add "bfd_coff_" to the names so they won't conflict with
1395 names in calling programs. FIXME-soon: if coff-code.h is
1396 included in two BFD modules, this will cause duplicate
1397 definitions; the routines should be exported to a separate,
1398 common, module (probably along with a mess of other ones).
1400 Sat Mar 2 12:11:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1402 Improve modtime support.
1404 * bfd.h: Add boolean mtime_set, and declare bfd_get_mtime.
1405 Remove #define for bfd_get_mtime. Remove gratuitous comment.
1406 * bfd.c (bfd_get_mtime): New fn, caches mtime, gets if not cached.
1407 BUG: archive members still do not get correct mod times.
1409 Improve floating point support for core files.
1411 * sunos.c (struct core): Change void *fpa_dummy to double fp_stuff.
1412 (sunos4_core_file_p): Create a second registers section in the
1413 core file, called ".reg2", for the float registers.
1415 Thu Feb 14 15:49:06 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
1417 * many changes to improve archive handling; found a logic flaw in
1418 bfd_check_format which only just happened to work by cooncidence.
1420 Thu Feb 14 07:53:16 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1422 * bfd.c (bfd_perform_relocation): fixed to use output_offsets
1425 * bfd.h: changed type of udata in asymbol to void *, like it
1426 should be. Added bfd_reloc_dangerous enum member.
1428 * coff-code.h: Fixed it so that internally generated symbols get
1429 their values relocated correctly in all cases. Removed calls to
1432 * icoff.c: Not understanding the destination symbol of a reloc is
1433 not a failure any more, just 'dangerous'. This allows linking of
1434 b.out and coff images.
1436 * sunos.c: Cleaned up the way that ZMAGIC section sizes are
1440 Tue Feb 12 13:25:46 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1442 * sunos.c (translate_to_native_sym_flags): fixed
1443 sym_pointer->n_value so that symbols on the way out get their
1444 section relative values calculated correctly.
1446 * coff-code.h (mangle_symbols): fixed problem where tags were not
1447 being relocated for structs, enums, unions. Also various lints.
1449 Mon Feb 11 19:52:26 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
1451 * archive.c (get_elt_at_filepos): system_call_error returned
1454 Sun Feb 10 23:18:40 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
1456 * Resolve the use of no_error and system_call_error.
1457 The bfd library itself now will never set bfd_error to
1460 The code still needs to be combed to make sure all the error
1461 codes are correct. I suspect they are not always set correctly.
1463 * The names of all the messages have _ prepended because the sun
1464 bundled compiler can't distinguish from a macro which takes an
1465 argument and the same identifier in a non-macro context.
1467 * The reason for the above being that entry points which used to
1468 be trampoline functions are now just macros which expand to a
1469 direct call through the bfd's xfer vector.
1471 * (../include/intel-coff.h) F_AR32WR: fix this constant. Why
1472 must gas have its own version of everything (the gas version
1473 had the correct value)
1475 Tue Feb 5 11:46:53 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1477 * b.out.c: Added patches supplied by chrisb@mipon2.intel.com to
1478 properly support i960 architecture and output correct reloc stuff.
1480 * bfd.h: added prototype for bfd_printable_arch_mach, added
1483 * coff-code.h: Applied patches from chrisb to support i960
1484 architecture, zero relocs and swap them correcly and conditionally
1485 compiled the timestamp.
1487 * sunos.c: Made the default section alignment 2^3 so that doubles
1488 are done properly. Fixed the same reloc bug that was in b.out.c
1490 * sysdep.h: Now compiles on a Posix box
1492 Wed Jan 30 21:36:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1494 * icoff.c: Fix comment on big-endian version.
1495 * coff-code.h: Make HAS_RELOC really work (it's backwards from
1496 F_RELFLG). Set F_AR32WR in output files if little endian
1499 Tue Jan 29 20:56:10 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1501 * archures.c fixed =/== typo
1503 * sunos.c added architecture stuff for output. Fixed
1504 bug where files where vma(data) != size(text)
1505 were processed wrong.
1507 * coff-code.h added a lint cast
1509 * (../include/a.out.sun4.h) fixed it so zmagic
1512 Mon Jan 28 19:15:29 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1514 * archive.c removed loads of includes, and fixed bug where string
1515 table didn't have a null at the end.

1533 alignement to words. Fixed relocation stuff to work with
1536 * bfd.h various new types added, prototype for new
1537 reloc calls, changed bfd->iostream to a void *
1538 to including files don't need stdio.h.
1540 * libcoff.h added conversion table to tie relocs to
1545 * coff-code.h fixed includes. Added code to support
1546 big and little endian formats. Various lints. Better
1547 processing of symbols. Changed reloc stuff to new
1550 * libbfd.h fixed includes
1553 Mon Jan 21 11:53:51 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1555 * bfd.h changed name of alignment entry in sec_struct to
1556 alignment_power, because of conflicting uses within bfd.
1557 Now it should be obvious that it's a 2**n alignment
1558 specifier. Removed start_pad, end_alignment, block, minsize,
1559 output_file_alignment, subsection_alignment and original_vma fields.
1560 Added align_power() macro. Fixed bfd_section_alignment
1561 acessor macros. Added bfd_symbol_same_target macro.

1565 relative symbols properly.
1567 * sunos.c (sunos4_object_p) fixed to use new alignment_power.
1568 Fixed (translate_from_native_sym_flags) to correctly make
1569 symbols section relative.
1571 * bfd.c (bfd_errmsg) fixed various enum cast problems.
1572 (bfd_make_section) took out initialization of obsolete members.
1573 (bfd_print_symbol_vandf) added
1575 * opncls.c (bfd_create) created.
1577 * coff-code.h (coff_new_section_hook) took away refs
1578 to obsolete members. (make_a_section_from_file) added
1579 conversion between alignment types. (coff_symbol_from)
1580 added. (coff_count_linenumbers) only counts linenumbers
1581 if symbol is of coff-type. (coff_mangle_symbols) only
1582 heavily mangles symbols if symbol is coff-type.
1583 (coff_write_symbols) various lints. (coff_write_object_contents)
1584 various lints and modification for alignment conversion.

1587 Sat Jan 19 16:10:42 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1589 * archive.c lots of lint
1591 * b.out.c added callj relocation support, upgrated reloc howto.
1592 Fixed so that asymbol and reloc records are output
1595 * bfd.c lots of lint, support for new bfd entry point
1598 * bfd.h changed definition of asymbol to contain pointer to
1599 owning bfd, removed target dependencies.
1601 * cache.c took out print statements, put in BFD_ASSERT calls.
1603 * coff-code.h various lints, corrected linenumber output
1604 functionality. Added support for new style asymbols and
1605 bfd_print_symbol. Fixed so that asymbol and
1606 reloc records are handled correctly. Added timestamp.

1619 and bfd_print_symbol.
1621 Wed Jan 16 21:38:09 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1623 * b.out.c removed prototype of sunos4_ennativate_symtab, lots of
1624 pointer lint. Added support for callj relocation. Fixed bug where
1625 the last 32 bytes of the text section were overwritten by data. Fixed bug
1626 where archives of b.out didn't work due bfd_slurp_extended_name_table
1629 * sunos.c added support for n_other field. Braced the howto table so
1630 that it won't be affected by any lengthing of the howto struct typedef.

1639 Wed Jan 16 01:55:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at rtl)
1641 * ChangeLog: Started ChangeLog for BFD.
1642 * ToDo: Create file for suggestions.
1644 * Makefile: Support easy loading into Saber C.
1645 Add dependencies for icoff.o and bcs88kcoff.o.
1646 Rename coff.c to coff-code.h. Change callers.
1648 * bfd.c (bfd_check_format): Allow the check_format routines
1649 to return the desired target vector, rather than just a Boolean.
1650 bfd.h (bfd_check_format): Change function pointer return type.
1651 archive.c (bfd_generic_archive_p): change callee.
1652 b.out.c (b_out_little_object_p, b_out_big_object_p,
1653 b_out_real_object_p): change callee.
1654 libbfd.c (_bfd_dummy_target): Dummy routine replacing bfd_false
1655 in check_format transfer vectors that need a filler.
1656 libbfd.h (bfd_generic_archive_p, _bfd_dummy_target): Fix decls.
1657 bcs88kcoff.c: change callee.
1658 coff-code.h (coff_real_object_p, coff_big_object_p): change callee.
1659 icoff.c: change callee.
1660 sunos.c (sunos4_object_p, sunos4_core_file_p): change callee.
1662 * libbfd.c (zalloc): It should actually zero the storage!
1663 This was commented out for some reason.
1665 * libbfd.h: Add malloc, xmalloc, memcpy, and fatal decls.
1666 This is so callers can avoid <stdlib.h> which doesn't exist
1669 * bfd.c (map_over_sections): Add debugging code, since I
1670 noticed the section count for sunos core files was bad, but only
1671 GDB had detected the problem.
1672 (bfd_set_section_lineno_size, bfd_set_section_linenos,
1673 bfd_get_section_linenos): Remove obsolete functions.
1674 (bfd_apply_relocations): Use longs, not ints, for the math.
1676 * bfd.h: Declare enum boolean and struct bfd_target as well
1677 as typedefs for them. Remove obsolete
1678 bfd_get_section_lineno_size.
1680 * cache.c: Make the "fdopen" support work. Keep better track
1681 of how many files are open. Centralize the opening of files
1682 and be sure bfd_open[rw] actually try to open the file. Evade
1683 linked list initialization problems.
1685 * b.out.c, coff-code.h, opncls.c, sunos.c: lint.
1687 * coff-code.h (coff_slurp_symbol_table): Null-terminate symtab names.
1689 * cplus-dem.c: Delete file, since it is not part of BFD.
1691 * opncls.c (bfd_openr): Eliminate misplaced #if 0 code.
1692 (bfd_openr, bfd_openw): Actually open the file, give error now.
1694 * sunos.c (sunos4_core_file_p): Set section count.
1695 (sunos4_set_section_linenos, stab_names, fprint_name): Eliminiate
1696 obsolete definitions.
1697 (_write_symbol_table): Initialize <idx> counter.
1698 (foop): Eliminate debugging code.
