1 Tue Dec 3 22:54:50 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
3 * targets.c: Revise comments about how to configure the target
4 vector, to match reality. Remove mention of obsolete methods.
5 Remove long lists of capitalized macros that turn into the same
6 thing in lowercase. Normal vector simply lists all known
7 lowercase xvec names; all other cases are handled by SELECT_VECS.
9 * config/mt-i386-coff: Set DEFAULT_VECTOR to real identifier,
12 * config/mt-i960-{coff,bout}: Use SELECT_VECS to make a short
13 list of supported targets.
15 Tue Dec 3 14:06:15 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
17 * archive.c (bsd_write_armap): The pad byte sometimes added to
18 the string table in a __.SYMDEF member is now
19 counted as part of the size of the string table.
20 This is compatible with the old ranlib, as well as Sun's.
22 Tue Dec 3 10:53:30 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
24 * srec.c: Rewrote to fix many bugs; now gets the record type
25 right, doesn't choke on input, sets the start address in an S9 and
26 fills in the filename on an S0.
28 Sat Nov 30 21:19:15 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
30 * cpu-h8300.c: Add support for MEMIND addressing mode
32 * coff-a29k.c: defined RELOC_PROCESSING to take the #ifdef out of
34 * coffcode.h: use the new macro if available
36 * elf.c (elf_corefile_note): cast malloc to avoid warning.
37 * Makefile.in: Fixed dependencies due to file rename
39 * aout-encap.c, aoutf1.h, aoutx.h, archive.c, bout.c, coff-a29k.c,
40 coff-h8300.c, coff-i386.c, coff-i960.c, coff-m68k.c, coff-m88k.c,
41 coff-mips.c, coff-rs6000.c, cpu-h300.c, elf.c, i386aout.c,
42 newos3.c, stab-syms.c, syms.c: All these files have had their
43 #includes altered to point to the new places.
45 Fri Nov 29 20:04:49 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
47 * config/mh-i386v4, config/mh-i386-elf, hosts/h-i386v4.h: New files.
49 * configure.in: Add vendor "ncr" as supported per-target vendor.
50 Add svr4 case for i386 per-host case.
52 * elf.c (elf_object_p, elf_core_file_p): Add missing "break" to
55 Fri Nov 29 12:16:51 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
57 * syms.c (bfd_decode_symclass): Return 'A'
58 for symbols that are both absolute and global.
59 * archive.c (bfd_special_undocumented_glue): Return NULL
60 if bfd_ar_hdr_from_filesystem returns NULL.
62 Tue Nov 26 09:10:55 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
64 * Makefile.in: added coff-h8300
65 * configure.in: now h8 is a coff target
66 * cpu-h8300.c: fix various disassembly problems
67 * libcoff.h: took out some code which has been #0ed for a long
69 * targets.c: added h8 coff
70 * coff-a29k.c, coff-i386.c, coff-i960.c, coff-m68k.c, coff-m88k.c
71 added new macro RTYPE2HOWTO to take a load of #ifdefs out of
73 * coffcode.h: Started to change the way machine dependencies are
74 handled, from the nest of #ifdefs to macros defined in the
75 including coff-<foo>.c
77 Fri Nov 22 08:11:42 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
79 * aoutx.h (some_aout_object_p): Set the `executable' bit
80 if the entry point is contained in the text segment, even if the
81 text segment is at location 0.
83 * coff-mips.c, coffcode.h: Peter Schauer's patch to kludge in
84 nonstandard MIPS sections (.rdata, .sdata, etc).
86 * aoutx.h, bfd.c, coffcode.h, ieee.c, oasys.c, targets.c: CONST lint.
87 * libbfd-in.h, libbfd.h, aoutx.h, coffcode.h, elf.c, libaout.h:
88 Rename ALIGN to BFD_ALIGN to avoid conflict with BSD <sys/param.h>.
90 * host-aout.c, trad-core.c: Fix write_armap prototypes. Lint.
92 Thu Nov 21 19:56:40 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
94 * stab-syms.c, syms.c: Moved bfd_stab_name() and bfd_stab_names[]
95 from syms.c to new file stab-syms.c. Also, since GNU extended
96 type codes such as N_SETT are no longer in ../include/stab.def,
97 include them manually.
98 * stab-syms.c, aoutx.h: Renamed bfd_stab_name() and
99 bfd_stab_names[] to aout_stab_name() and aout_stab_names[].
100 * libaout.h: Added prototype for aout_stab_name().
101 * Makefile.in: Update Makefile for new stab-syms.[co].
103 Thu Nov 21 11:50:49 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
105 * libaout.h (WORK_OUT_FILE_POSITIONS): One more try at this
106 rather complicated seeming problem. Eliminate LOGICAL_ versions,
107 just make N_XXX work by excluding the header from the text segment.
108 * aoutx.h: Fix comments to match.
110 Tue Nov 19 18:49:01 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
112 * libaout.h (WORK_OUT_FILE_POSITIONS): Use new LOGICAL_TXTADDR,
113 LOGICAL_TXTOFF, LOGICAL_TXTSIZE macros to figure out numbers
114 for the "logical" text segment (i.e. never consider the exec
115 header to be part of the text segment). This change is
116 needed for consistency with various other parts of bfd and ld.
117 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,soe_aout_object_p)): Fix comment,
118 and move calculation of obj_textsec(abfd)->size to libaout.h.
119 * bfd-in.h: Removed bogus ';'.
121 * Makefile.in: Add MINIMIZE flag to select lean
122 or bloated target_vector.
123 * targets.c: Use new MINIMIZE macro, and add trad_core if needed.
124 * newsos3.c: Fixes to ../include/aout64.h remove need
125 for special N_TXTOFF macro, but require N_HEADER_IN_TEXT.
127 Mon Nov 18 12:00:59 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
129 * aout-target.h, aoutf1.h, newsos3.c: Make aout-target.h
130 handle both little and big-endian targets, with little
131 the default unless TARGET_IS_BIG_ENDIAN_P is defined.
132 * host-aout.c: Add FIXME note.
134 Sun Nov 17 13:29:39 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
136 * targets.c: Make the default target_vector contain
137 just &DEFAULT_VECTOR. This makes executables a lot smaller.
138 Old behavior can be gotten by defining ALL_TARGETS.
139 * aoutf1.h, demo64.c, i386aout.c, newsos3.c, sunos.c:
140 Factored out common code into new file aout-target.h.
141 Saves a lot of duplicate code for a.out variants.
143 Fri Nov 15 13:00:43 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
145 Get 'make headers' to work when configured with +subdirs.
146 * Makefile.in: Add $(subdir) to docdir path.
147 * doc/Makefile.in (protos): Add $(srcdir) prefix
148 to name of sed scripts.
150 Thu Nov 14 19:49:10 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
152 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,print_symbol)): Fix thinko.
153 * syms.c (bfd_stab_names): Turn on new GNU_EXTRA_STABS macro
154 to include names of N_SETT etc.
156 Thu Nov 14 19:11:13 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
158 * elf.c: Add minimal support for ELF symbol tables. Generates
159 canonical bfd symbol tables from ELF symbol tables. Change the
160 name of some functions from bfd_<name> to elf_<name>.
162 * syms.c: Trivial fix to comment to remove a redundant "to".
164 Wed Nov 13 17:02:01 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
166 * coff-{i386,m68k,m88k}.c: Change name of file format to standard
167 form that GDB recognizes as COFF.
169 Wed Nov 13 09:09:41 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
171 * ieee.c (ieee_object_p): cast NULL correctly.
172 * configure.in: added harris host
174 * coff-a29k.c: Lots of changes, most from David Wood.
176 Tue Nov 12 07:21:41 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
178 * coff-m88k.c (coff_write_armap): Just #undef it.
180 Mon Nov 11 20:30:18 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
182 * Makefile.in: standardize on MINUS_G to disable debugging
183 * coff-m88k.c: create coff armaps instead of bsd ones.
184 * opncls.c (bfd_close_all_done), (bfd_close): Mask out random bits

189 * elf.c: Additions to support ELF format core files.
190 * config/mh-amix: Add -DHAVE_PROCFS to HDEFINES, since host
191 has support for /proc (all the include files in particular).
193 Mon Nov 11 18:36:47 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
195 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,find_nearest_line)): Handle the case
196 of two N_SO stabs, one for directory, and one for filename.
198 * bfd-in.h (print_vma): Factor out duplicate definition.
200 Exit a little more gracefully when malloc returns NULL.
201 * libbfd.c: New function bfd_xmalloc (malloc wrapper).
202 * opncls.c, syms.c, bout.c, aoutx.h: Replace malloc by bfd_xmalloc.
203 * libbfd.h: Rre-generated due to libbfd.c update.
205 Sat Nov 9 13:45:01 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
207 * config/mt-m68k-elf: Define DEFAULT_VECTOR as elf_big_vec.
209 * elf.c (elf_object_p): Don't try to create a bfd section for
210 the first ELF section header. It is just a placeholder.
212 Sat Nov 9 03:04:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
214 * coff-rs6000.c, config/mh-rs6000: Make it work on archive and
215 core files, when compiling native.
216 * hosts/h-rs6000.h: Define FASCIST_FDOPEN for bfd_fdopenr.
218 FIXME: The aoutf1.h change below needs to be reversed back
221 Thu Nov 7 11:03:55 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
223 * coffcode.h: Defined new macros [PUT|GET]LINENO_LNNO for
224 manipulation of lnno fields in lineno structs in a coff-<f>.h
225 independent way. Override it in coff-<f>.h to your favourite
226 number if you don't have a 16bit lnno field. (coff_swap_lineno_in)
227 (coff_swap_lineno_out): modified to use the new macros.
229 Mon Nov 4 11:38:33 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
231 * aoutf1.h (sunos4_callback): Now defaults to 68020 rather than
232 unknown arch when the magic number doesn't specify the
233 architecture, since some OSs (eg old sun3s) don't set the number, and
234 020 is probably the right answer anyway.
236 Sun Nov 3 12:07:08 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
238 * hosts/h-news.h, hosts/h-rtbsd.h:
239 Get rid of MISSING_VFPRINTF, since libiberty provides one.
240 * bfd-in.h (bfd_print_symbol_type_hopw enum): Add new option
241 bfd_print_symbol_nm, for use by nm.
242 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,print_symbol)): Add code for new
243 bfd_print_symbol_nm option, to print in nm format.
244 * coffcode.h (coff_print_symbol), ieee.c (ieee_print_symbol)
245 oasys.c (oasys_print_symbol): Provide stub implementations
246 for bfd_print_symbol_nm.
247 * syms.c: New function bfd_decode_symclass, used by nm printer.
248 New function bfd_stab_name to look up string name of stab code.
250 Sat Nov 2 14:26:03 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
252 * Makefile.in: Added ctor.c
253 * archures.c (bfd_default_arch_struct) added
254 bfd_default_reloc_type_lookup.
255 * coffcode.h: removed a load of #if 0ed code.
256 (coff_compute_file_section_positions): now works out the section
257 alignment and size correctly in all cases.
258 (coff_get_symtab): looks for constructor symbols and calls the
259 right function when they're found. (coff_canonicalize_reloc):
260 knows when a section is full of constructors and does the right
262 * cpu-m88k.c: Added default_reloc_type lookup to the architecture
264 * libbfd-in.h: (bfd_default_reloc_type_lookup) defun added.
265 * libcoff.h: removed #if 0ed code
266 * reloc.c: (bfd_reloc_code_real_type) added BFD_RELOC_CTOR for
267 arch independent constructor relocation type.
268 (bfd_reloc_type_lookup): removed the comment "this will go away"
269 since it won't. (bfd_howto_32): stolen from 88k, this is a 32bit
270 reloc which is used when BFD_RELOC_CTOR falls through to give a
271 default 32bit reloc for constructors.
272 (bfd_default_reloc_type_lookup): added.
273 * aoutf1.h: fixed SEGMENT_SIZE typo.
275 Thu Oct 31 18:23:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
277 * coff-rs6000.c: Change name to "aixcoff-rs6000", to avoid
278 matching prefix "coff".
279 * coffcode.h (coff_swap_aux_in, coff_swap_aux_out): Handle
280 rs/6000 csect records.
282 Sun Oct 27 16:56:58 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
284 * coff-m88k.c, targets.c: change name of m88k_bcs to m88kbcs
285 * configure.in: add motorola delta88 cases
286 * libbfd.h, libbfd-in.h, archive.c, ieee.c, elf.c, srec.c: fix
287 write_armap prototype
288 * libbfd.c: add doc on bfd_write_bigendian_4byte_int
290 Fri Oct 25 02:48:19 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
292 * Rename COFF-related files in `coff-ARCH.c' form.
293 coff-a29k.c, coff-i386.c, coff-i960.c, coff-m68k.c, coff-m88k.c,
294 coff-mips.c, coff-rs6000.c to be exact.
296 * Makefile.in: Only supply TARGET_DEFAULTS to targets.c, reducing
298 * config/mt-*: Ditto.
300 Thu Oct 24 22:40:07 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
302 RS/6000 support, by Metin G. Ozisik, Mimi Phûông-Thåo Võ, and
303 John Gilmore. Archive support from Damon A. Permezel.

314 * coffcode.h (bfd_swap_reloc_in): Handle r_type and r_size.
315 (bfd_swap_aouthdr_in): Handle lots more members.
316 (make_a_section_from_file): If section has already been seen,
317 just return false rather than overwriting it.
318 (coff_real_object_p): Understand incoming magic numbers.
319 (coff_set_flags): Understand outgoing magic numbers.
320 (coff_compute_section_file_positions): outgoing aouthdr magic #.
321 (build_debug_section): Add fn for reading debug string section.
322 (get_normalized_symtab): Handle symbol names in debug string section.
323 Remove unused obj_string_table.
324 (coff_slurp_symbol_table): Handle rs6000-specific storage classes.
325 * aoutx.h (translate_from_native_sym_flags, N_SET*): Check for
326 existing section before making one.
327 * cpu-rs6000.c: New file.
328 * rs6000coff.c: New file.
330 Thu Oct 24 02:03:24 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
332 * elf.c: Add partial support for ELF format corefiles. Still needs
333 support for extracting registers from corefiles.
335 * config/t-m68k-elf: Set DEFAULT_VECTOR to elf_big_vec.
337 * config/{h-amix,h-dgux,h-irix3,h-ultra3}: For systems where
338 RANLIB is defined as echo, send the output to /dev/null to help
339 reduce clutter in the output from doing a make.
341 Mon Oct 21 17:48:48 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
343 * hosts/h-vaxult.h: Remove malloc/free decls covered in stdlib.h.
344 Fix HOST_PAGE_SIZE and HOST_SEGMENT_SIZE. From David Taylor.
346 Mon Oct 21 09:34:11 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at rtl.cygnus.com)
348 * coffcode.h (coff_compute_section_file_positions): make it pad
349 section size out if there are alignment restrictions so that the
350 image will be ok on a system where section positions are worked
351 out by accumulating sizes rather than from the section headers.
352 * targets.c (proto write_armap). Changed orl_count to unsigned.
353 * opncls.c (bfd_close_all_done). Added so that generative
354 programs like gas can close a bfd without causing bfd confusion.
355 * libbfd.h (changed becuase of protos)
356 * amdcoff.c: messed with the way that jmp displacements are
357 calcualated. This may not yet be totally correct.
358 * archive.c (coff_write_armap): rewrote the way that ranlibs are
360 * coffcode.h (fixup_symbol_value): now doesn't core dump if a non
361 abs symbol has no section (like a register symbol).
362 (coff_write_symbol) now zeros auxent before filling it up to help
363 with sensitive applications.
364 * libbfd.c (bfd_write_bigendian_4byte_int): added.
366 Wed Oct 16 22:58:45 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
368 * bfd.c: Make sure we don't get a macro strerror().
369 * opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): If FASCIST_FDOPEN, use "r", not "r+".
370 * trad-core.c (trad_unix_core_file_failing_command): Suppress
371 attempt to recover command, ifdef NO_CORE_COMMAND.
372 * hosts/h-tahoe.h: Add FASCIST_FDOPEN and NO_CORE_COMMAND;
374 * hosts/h-i386v.h: Use <utime.h>, not <sys/utime.h>, unlike POSIX.
376 Wed Oct 16 12:43:49 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
378 * archive.c (bsd_write_argmap): The size of the ranlib structures
379 should not include the size field itself.
380 * aoutx.h, libaout.h (NAME(aout, sizeof_headers)): Use
381 adata(abfd)->exec_bytes_size field instead of constant macro,
382 because aoutx.h compiles to a simple .o file shared by
383 all 32-bits a.out targets.
385 Wed Oct 16 11:11:05 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
387 * configure.in: Allow i386-sco-sysv.
388 * bout.c: Remove unused i960_align; lint dummy core file handlers.
391 * host-aout.c: New strategy. We use common code, include files,
392 and data structures to handle the file, but set a few parameters
393 from the host's config file (page size, text start addr, etc).
394 * libaout.h: Define HP BSD machine types.
395 * aoutf1.h: Handle reading a.outs with these types.
397 * trad-core.c: Pass the u.u_ar0 value as the negative of the
398 virtual-memory-address of the .reg section. We can't just make a
399 section for "all the regs and nothing else" because only GDB knows
400 exactly where the regs are (scattered around the upage and stack).
401 Clean up memory allocation. Remove big- and little-endian
402 vectors, replace with single vector; this only runs on the host,
403 in host byte order. Replace byteswap routines with aborts in case
405 * targets.c: There's only one trad_core_vec now.
406 * aoutf1.h (sunos_core_file_p): VMA of .reg* now needs to be 0.
408 Tue Oct 15 08:29:03 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
410 * hosts/h-amix.h (free): Fix prototype.
412 * aoutx.h: Don't use NULL as an integer, for braindead systems
413 that declare it as (void *)0. (From Peter Schauer.)
415 Mon Oct 14 17:20:47 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
417 * opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): Add parentheses to avoid reported
418 problem with bad Ultrix system headers.
419 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,set_section_contents)): Try to handle the
420 various kinds of alignments for the various kinds of
423 Mon Oct 14 14:23:10 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
425 * doc/Makefile: Don't assume . is on the path (from James Clark).
427 Fri Oct 11 22:45:14 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
429 * Makefile.in: Avoid Sun Make VPATH bugs.
430 * targets.c: Declare trad_core vectors extern.
432 Fri Oct 11 13:03:02 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
434 * coffcode.h: Moved ALIGN macro to libbfd.h. Removed i960_align.
435 * libbfd.h: Moved ALIGN macro here.
436 * bout.c (b_out_callback): Replace i960_align by align_power.
438 * libaout.h (struct aoutdata): Added fields page_size,
439 segment_size and exec_bytes_size. These help generic code
440 (in aoutx.h and libaout.h) to figure out where to align
441 the various segments in a demand paged file.
442 * libaout.h (WRITE_HEADER): Use new (struct aoutdata) fields
443 to decide if the exec header counts in a_text (text segment size).
444 Also, assume D_PAGED flag is set; don't set it here.
445 * bout.c (b_out_callback): Add initialization of
446 adata fields page_size, segment_size, and exec_bytes_size.
447 * host-aout.c (NAME(host_aout, callback) and
448 NAME(host_aout,mkobject): Ditto.
449 * i386aout.c (aout386_callback) and new aout386_mkobject): Ditto.
450 * newos3.c (newsos3_callback) and new newsos_mkobject): Ditto.
451 * aoutf1.c (sunos4_callback) and new sunos_mkobject): Ditto.
452 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,some_aout_object_p)): Don't subtract
453 EXEC_BYTES_SIZE from the a_test size; this is only appropriate
454 for some systems (mainly sunos), so do it in the callback instead.
455 Same routine: Add stuff to the THIS_IS_ONLY_DOCUMENTATION comment.
456 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,set_section_contents): Change the way
457 filepos and size of sections are carried out to support
458 older styles of demand paged executables.
461 Fri Oct 11 12:33:36 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
463 * bfd-in.h: Added more macros to COFF_SWAP_TABLE.
464 * bfd.c: Added macros to enable gas to swap coff records.
465 * coffcode.h: Make the coff_swap_*_out routines return the number
466 of bytes swapped, and cleaned up their prototypes.
467 * configure.in: Added ebmon/coff support
468 * ecoff.c: Changed null definitions of coff_swap_*_out to conform
470 * targets.c: Added new entry points for coff swapping
472 Fri Oct 11 03:01:52 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
474 Restructure configuration scheme for bfd, binutils, ld.
476 * include/sys/h-*.h: Move to bfd/hosts/h-*.h.
477 * configure.in: Revise to symlink sysdep.h to hosts/h-xxx.h.
478 Change some config names to match other dirs.
479 * *.c: Include bfd.h before sysdep.h, so ansidecl and PROTO()
481 * Makefile.in: Use -I. to get sysdep.h. Remove refs to
483 * cpu-i960.c: Strncmp needed a length arg.
484 * ecoff.c: Don't ever call trad_unix_core_file_p from here.
485 * i386aout.c: Remove dead N_TXTOFF override.
486 * trad-core.c: Don't disable the whole file if SUN4_SYS.
487 * config/: Rename some config files to match up h-*.h names.
488 Remove all the HOST_SYS definitions from the config files.
489 * hosts/h-amix.h, h-i386v.h: Define POSIX_UTIME, not USG.
490 * hosts/h-hp9000.h: Remove USG comment.
491 * hosts/h-rs6000.h: Include <stdlib.h> for malloc.
492 * hosts/h-news.h, h-sparc-64.h: New config files that had
493 previously been kludged in the <sysdep.h> file.
495 Thu Oct 10 17:54:08 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
497 * config/*: trad-core support is HOST dependent, not target
498 dependent. Target config files only set DEFAULT_VECTOR and/or
499 other vector elements. Exception: when host-aout.c is in use,
500 in which case we're forced to assume we're native (hp, vax,
501 tahoe). Rename XDEPFILES to HDEPFILES.
502 * Makefile.in: Rename XDEPFILES.
503 * config/h-sun*: Don't force static linking.
504 * trad-core.c: Document how to use it nowadays.
505 * i386aout.c, newsos3.c: Clean up.
506 * i386coff.c: Allow 386 coff files to be used as core files too
507 (for reading core files from embedded systems).
509 Tue Oct 8 15:30:39 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
511 * Add i386aout.c for a.out support on the i386.
513 Tue Oct 8 12:18:54 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygnus.com)
515 * reloc.c, section.c, syms.c, targets.c: correct info-node
516 structure in *doc* comments.
517 doc/Makefile: stop hiding complaints from makeinfo.
519 Sun Oct 6 19:10:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
521 * aoutx.h (...some_aout_object_p): Take a third parameter,
522 the internal_exec struct, and avoid ever looking at an
523 external_exec. All callers changed to read the entire
524 external_exec struct, swap and check its magic number,
525 swap in the whole structure, and pass the swapped-in version to
527 * bout.c: Bring into modern era. Use single _object_p routine
528 for big- aand little-endian. Provide internal and external
529 exec header structs. Use separate swap-in and swap-out routines.
531 * libaout.h: Move struct internal_exec from ../include/aout64.h
532 to here. Add obj_symbol_entry_size to struct aoutdata.
533 * aoutx.h (...some_aout_object_p): Set obj_symbol_entry_size.
535 * ../include/aout64.h: Change EXTERNAL_LIST_SIZE to
536 EXTERNAL_NLIST_SIZE. Callers changed.
538 Fri Oct 4 18:18:46 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
540 * bfd.c: Remove strerror() to libiberty.
542 * elf.c: Remove elf_set_section_contents, use generic one. Lint.
543 * libbfd-in.h, libbfd.c: Add bfd_generic_set_section_contents.
544 * libbfd.c (bfd_generic_{get,set}_section_contents): Check that
545 last byte of transfer, not first byte, is within the section.
547 * host-aout.c: Remove `BSD' archive support. Lint.
549 * archures.c: Rename `struct bfd_arch_info_struct' to `struct
550 bfd_arch_info'. Rename `typedef bfd_arch_info_struct_type' to
551 `bfd_arch_info_type'. All uses changed.
552 * reloc.c: Rename `bfd_reloc_status_enum_type' to
553 `bfd_reloc_status_type'. Rename `bfd_reloc_code_enum_real_type'
554 to `bfd_reloc_code_real_type'. (This seems to be a misnomer,
555 it needs a better name.) All uses changed.
556 * targets.c: Rename `enum target_flavour_enum' to `enum
557 target_flavour', and remove the `_enum' from all of the enum
558 values themselves. All uses changed.
560 * configure.in, config/h-i386mach: i386 mach host.
561 * config/t-i386-aout: Use host-aout.c.
563 * trad-core.c: Give it its own xvec's to make it independent
564 of other file formats.
565 * ecoff.c, host-aout.c: Remove refs to trad-core.
566 * config/t-dec3100, t-hp300bsd, t-tahoe, t-vax: Define TRAD_CORE.
567 * targets.c: #ifdef TRAD_CORE, include it in the vector.
569 Fri Oct 4 17:38:03 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
571 * reloc.c: Extended NEWHOWTO macro
572 * ieee.c: Changed the way 8bit pcrel is done
573 * cpu-h8300.c: got the registers in the right order
575 Thu Oct 3 19:39:55 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
577 * bfd-in.h: enum boolean => enum bfd_boolean for SVR4. Gumby's
578 prediction is vindicated!
580 * bfd-in.h, libbfd-in.h, doc/Makefile, doc/tolibbfd, doc/intobfd:
581 Remove refs to howto.c, since Steve forgot.
583 Thu Oct 3 07:49:21 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
585 * elf.c: took the abort out of set_arch_mach so that objdump -i will
586 still work. Now allows any architecture/machine to be set.
588 Wed Oct 2 13:50:35 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
590 * howto.c deleted and moved code to reloc.c
592 * libbfd.h, libbfd-in.h removed $id stuff for real
594 * cpu-h8300.c Made it match various different spellings of h8300.
596 * archures.c: Took out the first char filter which made it only
597 look for a cpu/arch match when the first chars of supplied and
598 tested names were the same.
600 * targets.c removed oasys stuff, pending someone to fix the bugs
604 Tue Oct 1 12:29:44 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
606 * Makefile.in, configure.in, targets.c, elf.c: Add preliminary
607 ELF support good enough for GDB.
608 * configure.in, config/h-amix, config/t-m68k-elf: Handle
609 m68k-cbm-svr4 host and target.
610 * config/t-m68k-coff, t-m88k-coff, t-m88k-aout: Make files nonempty
611 so `diff' and `patch' can cope.
613 Tue Oct 1 11:24:31 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
615 * archures.c: removed texinfo error
617 * init.c: added texinfo hooks, and removed initialization error
620 * libcoff-in.h, libbfd-in.h removed $id field so cvs can merge
623 Tue Oct 1 05:02:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
625 * cpu-i960.c: Avoid numerical count of initializers.
627 Vax Ultrix changes from David Taylor <taylor@think.com>:
628 * host-aout.c: Make little-endian vector really little-endian.
629 * configure.in: Separate vax and tahoe cases, handle ultrix.
630 * config/t-vax: Add trad-core.o.
631 * config/h-vaxult: New host system.
633 Mon Sep 30 15:13:46 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
635 * bfd-in.h VERSION, change version number to 0.18, this makes a
636 gap, but now is the same as the linker version number.
638 * cpu-a29k.c, cpu-i386.c, cpu-m68k.c, cpu-mips.c, cpu-vax.c,
639 cpu-h8300.c, cpu-i960.c, cpu-m88k.c, cpu-sparc.c: added. These
640 files will eventually contain processor specific bits for bfd,
641 like strange relocation information and dis/assembly. So far only
642 the H8 has been even partially done. This work also ties in with
643 the change in handling architectures.
645 * amdcoff.c: (a29k_reloc) fix error message.
647 * aout-f1.h: (choose_reloc_size) now calls bfd_get_arch to
648 discover the architecture of the bfd. (sunos4_callback) calls the
649 function bfd_set_arch_mach rather than stuffing stuff directly
650 into the bfd. (sunos4_write_object_contents), changed names of
653 * aoutx.h: (set_arch_mach) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach to
654 setup the environment.
656 * archive.c: (bfd_slurp_coff_armap) coff archives always have the
657 headers in big endian format, regardless of the endianess of the
660 * archures.c: totally changed. Now an architecture is represented
661 with a pointer to an info structure rather than an enumerated type
662 and a long. The old info is available as two elements in the
663 structure. Future enhancements to architecure support will
664 involve pointers to methods being placed into the info structure.
666 * bfd.c: changed the definition of the bfd structure for the new
669 * bout.c: (b_out_set_arch_mach) changed to use the new
670 architecture mechanism.
672 * coffcode.h: (coff_set_arch_mach, coff_set_flags) changed to use
673 the new architecture mechanism.
675 * configure.in: added h8 stuff.
677 * ieee.c: too many changes to note. Now ieee files written with
678 bfd gas and ld can be read by gld and ieee only linkers and
681 * libbfd.c, libbfd.h: changed prototype of bfd_write.
683 * newsos3.c: (newos3_callback) now calls bfd_set_arch_mach rather
684 than fixing the structure directly.
686 * oasys.c: (oasys_object_p) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach rather
687 than fixing the structure directly.
689 * opncls.c: (new_bfd) makes sure that bfd_init has been called
690 before opening a bfd.
692 * srec.c: (srec_set_arch_mach) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach
693 rather than fixing the structure directly.
695 * targets.c: (target_vector) now by defining SELECT_VECS (perhaps
696 in the t/hmake file) a user can select which backends they want
697 linked with bfd without changing the source.
699 * init.c: new, looks after initializing modules.
701 * howto.c: for future use, will allow an application to work out
702 what cookie to use as a handle on a relcoatio howto.
704 Mon Sep 30 13:31:15 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
706 * srec.c: Better error checking, partly from Peter Schauer.
707 (srec_object_p): Avoid assuming any file that starts with 'S' is
708 an S-record file! (Check for 3 uppercase-hex digits after it.)
709 (ISHEX): Define new macro for checking supposedly hex characters.
710 (pass_over): Treat as EOF any S-record line that:
711 * doesn't have hex in either size character
712 * produces a size larger than 0x7F
713 * has an unrecognized type number
715 Thu Sep 26 15:27:29 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
717 * aoutf1.h, aoutx.h, bout.c, coffcode.h, host-aout.c, oasys.c,
718 opncls.c: Lint (saber actually).
720 Thu Sep 26 11:24:24 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
722 * libaout.h (WRITE_HEADERS): Set header's a_text field always.
723 * newsos3.c: Fixed two types: newos3 -> newsos3.
724 * reloc.c (bfd_perform_relocation): Fix pc-relative relocation
725 to use correct segment.
727 Mon Sep 23 18:24:34 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
729 * aoutx.h (print_symbol): Handle missing symbol->name.
731 Fri Sep 20 12:26:01 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygnus.com)
733 * aoutf1.h (swapcore_sparc): Change name of USRSTACK, fix comment
736 Tue Sep 17 17:23:49 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygnus.com)
738 * oasys.c, configure.in, config/h-irix3, config/t-irix3:
739 add sgi/irix support.
741 Thu Sep 12 14:29:09 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
743 Changes for the AMD 29000 Ultracomputer port from David Wood.
746 * opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): Handle NO_FCNTL.
748 * Makefile.in: Make subdirs work by using $(INCDIR) in the
751 * coffcode.h (coff_real_object_p): Pass information about the
752 current file's coff symbol format to BFD via the coff_data struct.
753 (coff_find_nearest_line): obj_icof => coff_data.
754 (coff_swap_sym_{in,out}): Check that SYMNMLEN == E_SYMNMLEN.
755 (coff_swap_aux_{in,out}): Check that FILNMLEN == E_FILNMLEN
756 and DIMNUM == E_DIMNUM.
757 * configure.in: Handle a29k-*-* hosts, and targets
758 a29k-*-coff, a29k-*-aout, and a29k-*-sym1.
759 * libcoff-in.h: Add local_n_btmask, local_n_btshft,
760 local_n_tmask, local_n_tshift, local_symesz, local_auxesz,
761 local_linesz to `coff_data' (tdata) struct.
762 (coff_data, coff_data_type, coff_tdata): Rename struct icofdata.
763 * config/h-ultra3: Handle a29k-*-* hosts as Ultracomputers.
765 Thu Sep 12 14:07:22 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)
767 * Makefile.in: $(MAKE) for make, $(docdir) for doc
768 * doc/Makefile: redundant dependencies for Sun-make VPATH bug
770 Tue Sep 10 20:34:12 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
772 * aoutf1.h (sunos4_core_file_p): Release the right storage in
774 (sunos4_core_file_matches_executable_p): Fix header comparison.

776 * bout.c, icoff.c, ieee.c, libbfd.c, oasys.c: gcc -O -W lint.
778 Wed Sep 4 00:44:52 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
780 Allow GDB to patch object files.
782 * aoutf1.h (sunos_core_file_p): Set SEC_HAS_CONTENTS on all sections.
783 * trad-core.h (trad_unix_core_file_p): Ditto.
784 * aoutx.h (aout_set_section_contents): On first output, check
785 abfd->direction and complain if erroneous.
787 * Makefile.in: Add crude dependencies.
789 Tue Sep 3 13:46:19 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
791 * config/* aoutx.h configure* shortened all the h/tmake-xxxx
792 to h/t-xxxx files so that everything will work on System V.
794 Fri Aug 23 13:51:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
796 * aoutx.h: Add information on host-aout.c and how to configure
797 to use it, to the manual.
798 * configure.in: Tix typo.
799 * ecoff.c: If compiling for DEC3100, use trad_unix core files,
800 else dummy out the core file support.
801 * trad-core.c (trad_unix_core_file_p): If HOST_DATA_START_ADDR is
802 specified, use it to locate the data section.
803 * coffcode.h (coff_write_symbols): Declare buffer as bfd_bytes
804 rather than as chars (lint).
806 Thu Aug 22 22:20:19 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygint.cygnus.com)

819 * trad-core.c (trad_unix_core_file_p): Use HOST_TEXT_START_ADDR,
820 etc, rather than TEXT_START_ADDR.
821 * host-aout.c: Remove #if 0 around whole thing.
822 Update to modern (32/64-bit) a.out naming conventions.
823 Include a large chunk of ../include/a.out.gnu.h to get macros that
824 are not defined by the system include files.
825 (host_aout_{32,64}_write_object_contents): Use the WRITE_HEADERS
826 macro used by the other a.out implementations.
827 * Makefile.in: Give dependencies to OPTIONAL_BACKENDS.
829 Wed Aug 21 14:33:06 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)
831 * Makefile.in: use targets "bfd.dvi" and "bfd.ps" instead of
832 texdoc and psdoc; make these depend on generated .texi's
834 * scanit, (new) unPROTO: turn PROTO macros into ANSI declarations in
837 * bfd.c, reloc.c, syms.c: minor spelling/wording fixes in doc
840 * Makefile.in, awkscan-ip, awkscan-p, intobfd,

842 libcoff-in.h: (a) use separate files for invariant parts of bfd.h,
843 libbfd.h, and libcoff.h; (b) in generated parts of same, use less
844 obtrusive marks indicating .c origins.

878 translate_to_native_sym_flags produce the above flags.
881 Wed Jul 31 09:53:52 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
883 * all files: update copyright notices for GPL version 2.
884 Install header comments and attribute most modules to their
885 authors. BFD's name is now officially "Binary File Descriptor",
886 so remove any conflicting pejoratives.
887 archures.h: Consists solely of comments; remove it.
889 Fri Jul 26 18:11:34 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)

901 bfd.texinfo oasys.c opncls.c reloc.c srec.c: More documentation on
904 * amdcoff.c bfd.texinfo Makefile.in : Folded in changes for amd
905 29k coff by David Wood (wood@lab.ultra.nyu.edu).
907 Thu Jul 4 09:53:16 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
909 * Everything: created some new files, core.c format.c, reloc.c,
910 section.c and syms.c to split the functionality a bit better.
911 Cleaned up the rest of the files a bit, and added some
915 Mon Jul 1 13:29:47 1991 David Wood (wood at david.ultra.nya.edu)
917 * opncls.c, ../include/sys/h-sun3.h ../include/sys/h-sun4.h: fcntl
918 really takes 3 arguments, patched code and ammended prototypes.
920 Fri Jun 14 13:19:40 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
922 * ../include/bfd.h (struct bfd_target): Added new field
923 "align_power_min" which contains the minimum alignment for a
924 section. This is used in coff_new_section_hook. The field
925 insertion necessitates an update of all backends..
927 * aoutf1.h jump table field inserted
929 * archive.c(snarf_ar_hdr)(bfd_slurp_coff_armap) can now parse dgux style extended
932 * bout.c(b_out_squirt_out_relocs) fix to assertion tests. Jump
933 table field inserted.
935 * coffcode.h(just about everything) Now patches up symbol tables
936 using a different mechanism. The Intel major bug has been fixed,
937 and the linker can self host on the Aviion and be debugged with
940 * ecoff.c: new include and jump table patch, i386coff.c: new
941 include and jump table patch, icoff.c: new include and jump table
942 patch, ieee.c: can now read archives containing ieee modules.,
943 libcoff.h: added (combined_entry_type), libieee.h: uped max
944 sections to 20, m68kcoff.c: new include and jump table patch,
945 m88kbcs.c: new include and jump table patch, oasys.c: various bugs
946 fixed. opncls.c: added bfd_alloc_grow and bfd_alloc_finish.
947 srec.c: jump table patch. trad-code.c fixed #IF typeo
949 Fri Jun 7 12:35:46 1991 Sean Fagan (sef at cygint.cygnus.com)
951 * coffcode.h (coff_swap_aux_in): added else case to deal with
952 filenames less than 9 characters.
955 Thu Jun 6 18:27:38 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
957 * ../include/oasys.h oasys.c (oasys_archive_p): fixed so it works
959 * srec.c: now allows any number of sections to be created in a
960 file. Outputs addresses of the right length.
962 Thu May 30 15:30:10 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
964 * bfd.c (bfd_check_format): Fixed problem where when a defaulted
965 target didn't match, the format got set to the attempted match,
966 breaking a future test.
968 *../include/i386coff.h : fixed typo in type field with size
970 * i386coff.c icoff.c m88k-bcs.c ecoff.c ../include/bfd.h : Added
971 support in the jump table for the swapping routines exported to
972 gdb. Now gdb works with the 386.
974 Tue May 28 17:21:43 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
976 * Merge in changes from gdb-3.95 release.
977 Makefile.in: Allow hmake and tmake files to add OFILES.
979 bfd.c: support specific targets as well as searching. When
980 searching, take default target in preference to others.
982 ieee.c, oasys.c: Avoid using the "tdata" macros left of assignment.
983 liba.out.h: Don't hard-code file offsets; use N_ macros for them.
984 libbfd.h: Support specific targets as well as searching.
985 opncls.c: Support specific targets as well as searching.
986 targets.c: Search is short-circuited if default target matches.
987 liboasys.c, libieee.c: Undo bothner changes that make macros
988 work to the left of assignment, but which depend on the
989 representations of different pointer types being the same.
991 Fri May 24 18:56:52 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
993 * i386coff.c: created.
994 * coffcode.h: added support for 386.
995 * Makefile.in: added support for 386.
996 * ../include/i386coff.h: created
998 Wed May 22 07:26:38 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1000 * coffcode.h: removed all put_x_<sizes>
1001 * libbfd.c: Changed #ifdef __GNUC__ to #ifdef HOST_64_BIT, Added
1005 Tue May 21 08:58:58 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1007 * opncls.c: Changed obstack_chunk_alloc use xmalloc
1009 Mon May 20 17:12:17 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1011 * everything: Removed sysdep.h from bfd.h and put back into files
1012 from which it was split out. Now 64 bit version is built with a
1013 -DHOST_64_BIT="long long" on the compile line.
1016 Fri May 17 19:35:26 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1018 Changed all the [get|put][name] routines to use [get|put]_[size
1021 Put in support for 64 bit work. Now two versions of bfd may be
1022 generated, according to the state of TARGET_64_BIT, one which is
1023 32 bit only, and one which is 64/32 bits.
1024 Created new back end 'demo64' to test 64 bit functionality.
1026 Renamed some files to work on DOS.
1028 * archive.c: lint * bfd.c: prototypes and lint. * ecoff.c: added
1029 64bit transfer * icoff.c: added 64bit transfer * ieee.c: name
1030 chage, 64 bit transfer. * liba.out.h: Split out common code from
1031 sunos and newsos into liba.out. Name changes and prototype mods. *
1032 libbfd.c: lint and prototypes, extra 64bit swaps. * libbfd.h:
1033 prototypes for new functions. * libcoff.h: lint * libieee.h: make
1034 work on DOS * liboasys.h: make work on DOS * m88k-bcs.c: Name
1035 change and 64bit stuff.* newsos3.c: common code removed, new jump
1036 table. * oasys.c: Name change * opncls.c: Portability fixes *
1037 srec.c: Name changes * sunos.c: Removed comon code. * targets.c:
1038 Added demo * aout32, aout64.c include aoutx.h * bout.c: used to
1039 be called b.out.c * coffcode.h: used to be called coff-code.h, now
1040 64bit ized. * demo64.c: 64 bit a.out back end
1046 Thu May 16 16:02:07 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1048 * libieee.h: Make ieee_data and ieee_ar_data macros usable
1049 on LHS of assignment, even when using old compilers.
1050 * liboasys.h: Ditto for oasys_data and oasys_ar_data.
1051 * m68kcoff.c: Add enum-to-int casts to accomodate old compilers.
1052 * newsos3.c: Fix definitions of SEGMENT_SIZE and TEXT_START_ADDR.
1053 * opncls.c: Define S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, S_IXOTH if undefined.
1054 * targets.c: Add declaration of newsos3_vec.
1057 Mon May 13 10:03:29 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1059 * aout.c: fixxed some of the problems with filepos calculation.
1060 (swap_ext_reloc): fixed problem with creation of relocs.
1061 (aout_set_section_contents): fixed filepos problem
1063 * coff-code.h: (swap_filehdr_in, swap_filehdr_out) add.
1064 (swap_filehdr) delete. Changed all the usage of bfd_h_put_x.
1065 (swap_aouthdr_in, swap_aouthdr_out) add. (swap_aouthdr) delete.
1066 (coff_real_object_p) cleaned up, added MIPS. (coff_object_p)
1067 cleaned up. (coff_write_object_contents) cleaned up.
1069 * ecoff.c: Totally different. Now supports ecoff fully.
1071 * icoff.c: fixed problems in relocation callout.
1073 * libcoff.h: (struct icofdata) removed hdr structure from tdata.
1075 * m68kcoff.c: updated target vector.
1077 * sunos.c: (choose_reloc_size) added: (sunos4_callback) calls
1078 choose_reloc_size. (sunos4_write_object_contents) now calls
1079 choose_reloc_size so outputs relocs correctly, also calculates the
1080 size of the sections correctly.
1084 Fri May 10 16:58:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1086 Merge Per Bothner's changes to modularize BFD a.out a bit.
1088 * libbfd.h, libbfd.c (bfd_generic_get_section_contents): Add.
1089 * ieee.c: Cast enums to int before comparing them, for brain-
1091 * coff-code.h: Remove coff_get_section_contents, and use the
1092 generic one instead.
1094 * aout.c: Derive new module from sunos.c, containing generic
1095 support code for all kinds of a.out files.
1097 * sunos.c: Remove all code that goes in aout.c. Split out
1098 machine dependent followup in sunos4_object_p into
1099 sunos4_callback. Use JUMP_TABLE(aout) for the transver vector,
1100 and redefine only the names we CHANGE, not all the names. Drop
1101 the little-endian vector, and rename the vector as sunos4 rather
1104 * b.out.c: Use aout.c routines for most of the work. Slight
1105 changes for the new regime. Remove close_and_cleanup and
1106 get_section_contents in favor of generics. New transfer vector
1109 * newsos.c: New support for Sony NEWS, another a.out format.
1111 * ecoff.c: Remove close_and_cleanup. New tvec regime.
1112 * icoff.c, m88k-bcs.c: Add write_contents to tvec.
1113 * ieee.c, oasys.c: Remove close_and_cleanup, add write_contents
1115 * opncls.c (bfd_close): Call format-dependent write_contents
1116 routine, if writing, before calling target-dependent
1117 close_and_cleanup routine (which is now always generic, I think).
1118 * srec.c: Use bfd_alloc instead of malloc. Remove
1119 close_and_cleanup and move code from it to
1120 srec_write_object_contents. Add write_contents to tvec.
1121 * targets.c: Remove a.out little vector, replace a.out big
1122 vector with SunOS vector. FIXME: Need Vax support again now.
1124 * libbfd.h: Add write_contents format-dependent-vector to the
1125 bfd_target vector. Supply a generic close_and_cleanup routine.
1126 * liba.out.h: Handle the new aout.c split. Add prototypes for
1127 all routines defined in aout.c. Rename "sunos" things to "aout"
1128 things. Add a few fields where needed for various formats.
1129 * Makefile.in: Add aout.c and newsos.c.
1131 * archive.c, ieee.c, oasys.c: Lint.
1133 Fri May 10 12:34:48 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1136 changed forward declaration struct stat; to reduce warnings. Changed
1137 comment on bfd_h_<x>_x.
1139 * ../include/m68kcoff.h, ../include/intel-coff.h,
1140 ../include/m88k-bcs.h
1141 Now there are two incarnations of relocs, linenos and syments. One for
1142 internal digestion, and one full of char arrays for I/O. The original
1143 names have gone to detect errors.
1145 * Makefile.in, m68kcoff.c, targets.c
1146 Test new structure code with a 68k coff implementaion
1148 * coff-code.h, icoff.c, coffswap.c, libcoff.h
1149 Fixed all the places where there were problems with the size and
1150 alignments of structures on disk and structures in memory. #ifed out
1151 all the code in coffswap.c, since it should be done using the target
1154 Thu May 9 11:00:45 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1156 * ieee.c (do_one, ieee_slurp_section_data): now supports the load
1157 multiple reloc command.
1159 * sunos.c (sunos4_set_section_contents): Made it so that sections
1160 are always padded to their alignment size.
1162 Sat May 4 15:49:43 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1164 * archive.c, bfd.c, coff-code.h, opncls.c, sunos.c, trad-core.c:
1165 Clean up types and such (saber C problems).
1166 * ecoff.c: Clean up types and such. Remove routines that are
1167 not used. Fix up reading and swapping of shorts from files.
1169 Notes on bfd-0.5.2-patch1a, from Per Bothner:
1171 * a.out.vax.c: Remove two bogus "static" from prototypes.
1173 * ecoff.c: Got rid of lots of non-working junk (that had
1174 been copied directly from coff-code.h).
1175 Updated to be consistent with updates to icoff.c and coff-code.h.
1177 * libbfd.h: Added definitions for S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, and S_IXOTH
1178 if they're missing (as they are in (BDS-4.3-based) NewsOS-3).
1180 * sunos.c (n_txtoff): (Re-)Add support for sony. This is a kludge,
1181 but until the target_vector is automatically generated,
1182 it's as good as any. Note that the text offset is the only
1183 difference between NewsOS and SunOs (including magic numbers).
1184 (Most of the sunos_* routines should to renamed bsd_*
1185 and move to a bsd.c file. Then (and when the target_vector
1186 is automatically generated) it might make sense to create
1187 a separate Sony target.)
1189 * sysdep.h: Don't declare fread and fwrite. Causes trouble
1190 on some systems, and doesn't help on others.
1191 Similarly, only define X_OK if not already defined.
1193 * trad-core.c: Don't include sys/stat.h - at least
1194 on NewsOS 3, it has already been included.
1196 Tue Mar 5 01:47:57 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1198 * coff-code.h (bfd_coff_swap_sym, bfd_coff_swap_aux,
1199 bfd_coff_swap_lineno): Export the routines that byte-swap COFF
1200 symbol tables if necessary when reading them in, so gdb can use
1201 them. Add "bfd_coff_" to the names so they won't conflict with
1202 names in calling programs. FIXME-soon: if coff-code.h is
1203 included in two BFD modules, this will cause duplicate
1204 definitions; the routines should be exported to a separate,
1205 common, module (probably along with a mess of other ones).
1207 Sat Mar 2 12:11:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1209 Improve modtime support.
1211 * bfd.h: Add boolean mtime_set, and declare bfd_get_mtime.
1212 Remove #define for bfd_get_mtime. Remove gratuitous comment.
1213 * bfd.c (bfd_get_mtime): New fn, caches mtime, gets if not cached.
1214 BUG: archive members still do not get correct mod times.
1216 Improve floating point support for core files.
1218 * sunos.c (struct core): Change void *fpa_dummy to double fp_stuff.
1219 (sunos4_core_file_p): Create a second registers section in the
1220 core file, called ".reg2", for the float registers.
1222 Thu Feb 14 15:49:06 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
1224 * many changes to improve archive handling; found a logic flaw in
1225 bfd_check_format which only just happened to work by cooncidence.
1227 Thu Feb 14 07:53:16 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1229 * bfd.c (bfd_perform_relocation): fixed to use output_offsets
1232 * bfd.h: changed type of udata in asymbol to void *, like it
1233 should be. Added bfd_reloc_dangerous enum member.
1235 * coff-code.h: Fixed it so that internally generated symbols get
1236 their values relocated correctly in all cases. Removed calls to
1239 * icoff.c: Not understanding the destination symbol of a reloc is
1240 not a failure any more, just 'dangerous'. This allows linking of
1241 b.out and coff images.
1243 * sunos.c: Cleaned up the way that ZMAGIC section sizes are
1247 Tue Feb 12 13:25:46 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1249 * sunos.c (translate_to_native_sym_flags): fixed
1250 sym_pointer->n_value so that symbols on the way out get their
1251 section relative values calculated correctly.
1253 * coff-code.h (mangle_symbols): fixed problem where tags were not
1254 being relocated for structs, enums, unions. Also various lints.
1256 Mon Feb 11 19:52:26 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
1258 * archive.c (get_elt_at_filepos): system_call_error returned
1261 Sun Feb 10 23:18:40 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
1263 * Resolve the use of no_error and system_call_error.
1264 The bfd library itself now will never set bfd_error to
1267 The code still needs to be combed to make sure all the error
1268 codes are correct. I suspect they are not always set correctly.
1270 * The names of all the messages have _ prepended because the sun
1271 bundled compiler can't distinguish from a macro which takes an
1272 argument and the same identifier in a non-macro context.
1274 * The reason for the above being that entry points which used to
1275 be trampoline functions are now just macros which expand to a
1276 direct call through the bfd's xfer vector.
1278 * (../include/intel-coff.h) F_AR32WR: fix this constant. Why
1279 must gas have its own version of everything (the gas version
1280 had the correct value)
1282 Tue Feb 5 11:46:53 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1284 * b.out.c: Added patches supplied by chrisb@mipon2.intel.com to
1285 properly support i960 architecture and output correct reloc stuff.
1287 * bfd.h: added prototype for bfd_printable_arch_mach, added
1290 * coff-code.h: Applied patches from chrisb to support i960
1291 architecture, zero relocs and swap them correcly and conditionally
1292 compiled the timestamp.
1294 * sunos.c: Made the default section alignment 2^3 so that doubles
1295 are done properly. Fixed the same reloc bug that was in b.out.c
1297 * sysdep.h: Now compiles on a Posix box
1299 Wed Jan 30 21:36:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1301 * icoff.c: Fix comment on big-endian version.
1302 * coff-code.h: Make HAS_RELOC really work (it's backwards from
1303 F_RELFLG). Set F_AR32WR in output files if little endian
1306 Tue Jan 29 20:56:10 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1308 * archures.c fixed =/== typo
1310 * sunos.c added architecture stuff for output. Fixed
1311 bug where files where vma(data) != size(text)
1312 were processed wrong.
1314 * coff-code.h added a lint cast
1316 * (../include/a.out.sun4.h) fixed it so zmagic
1319 Mon Jan 28 19:15:29 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1321 * archive.c removed loads of includes, and fixed bug where string
1322 table didn't have a null at the end.
1324 * bfd.c fixed includes, added symbols argument to
1325 canonicalize_reloc entry point.
1327 * libbfd.c fixed includes and added some lint patches.
1329 * targets.c added both sorts of intel coff.
1331 * b.out.c fixed included, changed was the canonical
1334 * icoff.c added support for callj and big and little
1337 * opncls.c added chmod+xing for files with EXEC_P set.
1339 * sunos.c fixed includes. Changed default section
1340 alignement to words. Fixed relocation stuff to work with
1343 * bfd.h various new types added, prototype for new
1344 reloc calls, changed bfd->iostream to a void *
1345 to including files don't need stdio.h.
1347 * libcoff.h added conversion table to tie relocs to
1352 * coff-code.h fixed includes. Added code to support
1353 big and little endian formats. Various lints. Better
1354 processing of symbols. Changed reloc stuff to new
1357 * libbfd.h fixed includes
1360 Mon Jan 21 11:53:51 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1362 * bfd.h changed name of alignment entry in sec_struct to
1363 alignment_power, because of conflicting uses within bfd.
1364 Now it should be obvious that it's a 2**n alignment
1365 specifier. Removed start_pad, end_alignment, block, minsize,
1366 output_file_alignment, subsection_alignment and original_vma fields.
1367 Added align_power() macro. Fixed bfd_section_alignment
1368 acessor macros. Added bfd_symbol_same_target macro.
1370 * b.out.c (b_out_write_object_contents) fixed to use
1371 new alignment member. Fixed (callj_callback) to use section
1372 relative symbols properly.
1374 * sunos.c (sunos4_object_p) fixed to use new alignment_power.
1375 Fixed (translate_from_native_sym_flags) to correctly make
1376 symbols section relative.
1378 * bfd.c (bfd_errmsg) fixed various enum cast problems.
1379 (bfd_make_section) took out initialization of obsolete members.
1380 (bfd_print_symbol_vandf) added
1382 * opncls.c (bfd_create) created.
1384 * coff-code.h (coff_new_section_hook) took away refs
1385 to obsolete members. (make_a_section_from_file) added
1386 conversion between alignment types. (coff_symbol_from)
1387 added. (coff_count_linenumbers) only counts linenumbers
1388 if symbol is of coff-type. (coff_mangle_symbols) only
1389 heavily mangles symbols if symbol is coff-type.
1390 (coff_write_symbols) various lints. (coff_write_object_contents)
1391 various lints and modification for alignment conversion.
1392 (coff_slurp_relocs) fixed for use with new asection shape.
1394 Sat Jan 19 16:10:42 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1396 * archive.c lots of lint
1398 * b.out.c added callj relocation support, upgrated reloc howto.
1399 Fixed so that asymbol and reloc records are output
1402 * bfd.c lots of lint, support for new bfd entry point
1405 * bfd.h changed definition of asymbol to contain pointer to
1406 owning bfd, removed target dependencies.
1408 * cache.c took out print statements, put in BFD_ASSERT calls.
1410 * coff-code.h various lints, corrected linenumber output
1411 functionality. Added support for new style asymbols and
1412 bfd_print_symbol. Fixed so that asymbol and
1413 reloc records are handled correctly. Added timestamp.
1415 * icoff.c Added support for new howto shape.
1417 * liba.out.h Added support for new asymbol shape
1419 * libbfd.c various lints
1421 * libbfd.h various lints
1423 * libcoff.h added support for new asymbol shape.
1425 * sunos.c various lints. Added support for new asymbol shape
1426 and bfd_print_symbol.
1428 Wed Jan 16 21:38:09 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1430 * b.out.c removed prototype of sunos4_ennativate_symtab, lots of
1431 pointer lint. Added support for callj relocation. Fixed bug where
1432 the last 32 bytes of the text section were overwritten by data. Fixed bug
1433 where archives of b.out didn't work due bfd_slurp_extended_name_table
1436 * sunos.c added support for n_other field. Braced the howto table so
1437 that it won't be affected by any lengthing of the howto struct typedef.
1440 * bfd.h added support for n_other field, added special_function
1441 reloc type, modified bfd_perform_relocation prototype. Added bfd_h_get_x

1446 Wed Jan 16 01:55:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at rtl)
1448 * ChangeLog: Started ChangeLog for BFD.
1449 * ToDo: Create file for suggestions.
1451 * Makefile: Support easy loading into Saber C.
1452 Add dependencies for icoff.o and bcs88kcoff.o.
1453 Rename coff.c to coff-code.h. Change callers.
1455 * bfd.c (bfd_check_format): Allow the check_format routines
1456 to return the desired target vector, rather than just a Boolean.
1457 bfd.h (bfd_check_format): Change function pointer return type.
1458 archive.c (bfd_generic_archive_p): change callee.
1459 b.out.c (b_out_little_object_p, b_out_big_object_p,
1460 b_out_real_object_p): change callee.
1461 libbfd.c (_bfd_dummy_target): Dummy routine replacing bfd_false
1462 in check_format transfer vectors that need a filler.
1463 libbfd.h (bfd_generic_archive_p, _bfd_dummy_target): Fix decls.
1464 bcs88kcoff.c: change callee.
1465 coff-code.h (coff_real_object_p, coff_big_object_p): change callee.
1466 icoff.c: change callee.
1467 sunos.c (sunos4_object_p, sunos4_core_file_p): change callee.
1469 * libbfd.c (zalloc): It should actually zero the storage!
1470 This was commented out for some reason.
1472 * libbfd.h: Add malloc, xmalloc, memcpy, and fatal decls.
1473 This is so callers can avoid <stdlib.h> which doesn't exist
1476 * bfd.c (map_over_sections): Add debugging code, since I
1477 noticed the section count for sunos core files was bad, but only
1478 GDB had detected the problem.
1479 (bfd_set_section_lineno_size, bfd_set_section_linenos,
1480 bfd_get_section_linenos): Remove obsolete functions.
1481 (bfd_apply_relocations): Use longs, not ints, for the math.
1483 * bfd.h: Declare enum boolean and struct bfd_target as well
1484 as typedefs for them. Remove obsolete
1485 bfd_get_section_lineno_size.
1487 * cache.c: Make the "fdopen" support work. Keep better track
1488 of how many files are open. Centralize the opening of files
1489 and be sure bfd_open[rw] actually try to open the file. Evade

1498 * opncls.c (bfd_openr): Eliminate misplaced #if 0 code.
1499 (bfd_openr, bfd_openw): Actually open the file, give error now.
1501 * sunos.c (sunos4_core_file_p): Set section count.
1502 (sunos4_set_section_linenos, stab_names, fprint_name): Eliminiate
