5 to include names of N_SETT etc.
7 Thu Nov 14 19:11:13 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
9 * elf.c: Add minimal support for ELF symbol tables. Generates
10 canonical bfd symbol tables from ELF symbol tables. Change the
11 name of some functions from bfd_<name> to elf_<name>.
13 * syms.c: Trivial fix to comment to remove a redundant "to".
15 Wed Nov 13 17:02:01 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
17 * coff-{i386,m68k,m88k}.c: Change name of file format to standard

33 * Makefile.in: standardize on MINUS_G to disable debugging
34 * coff-m88k.c: create coff armaps instead of bsd ones.
35 * opncls.c (bfd_close_all_done), (bfd_close): Mask out random bits
38 Mon Nov 11 19:07:32 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
40 * elf.c: Additions to support ELF format core files.
41 * config/mh-amix: Add -DHAVE_PROCFS to HDEFINES, since host
42 has support for /proc (all the include files in particular).
44 Mon Nov 11 18:36:47 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
46 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,find_nearest_line)): Handle the case
47 of two N_SO stabs, one for directory, and one for filename.
49 * bfd-in.h (print_vma): Factor out duplicate definition.
51 Exit a little more gracefully when malloc returns NULL.
52 * libbfd.c: New function bfd_xmalloc (malloc wrapper).
53 * opncls.c, syms.c, bout.c, aoutx.h: Replace malloc by bfd_xmalloc.
54 * libbfd.h: Rre-generated due to libbfd.c update.

58 * config/mt-m68k-elf: Define DEFAULT_VECTOR as elf_big_vec.
60 * elf.c (elf_object_p): Don't try to create a bfd section for
61 the first ELF section header. It is just a placeholder.

65 * coff-rs6000.c, config/mh-rs6000: Make it work on archive and
66 core files, when compiling native.
67 * hosts/h-rs6000.h: Define FASCIST_FDOPEN for bfd_fdopenr.
69 FIXME: The aoutf1.h change below needs to be reversed back
72 Thu Nov 7 11:03:55 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at rtl.cygnus.com)
74 * coffcode.h: Defined new macros [PUT|GET]LINENO_LNNO for
75 manipulation of lnno fields in lineno structs in a coff-<f>.h
76 independent way. Override it in coff-<f>.h to your favourite
77 number if you don't have a 16bit lnno field. (coff_swap_lineno_in)
78 (coff_swap_lineno_out): modified to use the new macros.
80 Mon Nov 4 11:38:33 1991 Steve Chamberlain (sac at cygnus.com)
82 * aoutf1.h (sunos4_callback): Now defaults to 68020 rather than
83 unknown arch when the magic number doesn't specify the
84 architecture, since some OSs (eg old sun3s) don't set the number, and
85 020 is probably the right answer anyway.
87 Sun Nov 3 12:07:08 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
89 * hosts/h-news.h, hosts/h-rtbsd.h:
90 Get rid of MISSING_VFPRINTF, since libiberty provides one.
91 * bfd-in.h (bfd_print_symbol_type_hopw enum): Add new option
92 bfd_print_symbol_nm, for use by nm.
93 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,print_symbol)): Add code for new
94 bfd_print_symbol_nm option, to print in nm format.
95 * coffcode.h (coff_print_symbol), ieee.c (ieee_print_symbol)
96 oasys.c (oasys_print_symbol): Provide stub implementations
97 for bfd_print_symbol_nm.
98 * syms.c: New function bfd_decode_symclass, used by nm printer.

101 Sat Nov 2 14:26:03 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
103 * Makefile.in: Added ctor.c
104 * archures.c (bfd_default_arch_struct) added
105 bfd_default_reloc_type_lookup.
106 * coffcode.h: removed a load of #if 0ed code.
107 (coff_compute_file_section_positions): now works out the section
108 alignment and size correctly in all cases.
109 (coff_get_symtab): looks for constructor symbols and calls the
110 right function when they're found. (coff_canonicalize_reloc):
111 knows when a section is full of constructors and does the right
113 * cpu-m88k.c: Added default_reloc_type lookup to the architecture
115 * libbfd-in.h: (bfd_default_reloc_type_lookup) defun added.
116 * libcoff.h: removed #if 0ed code
117 * reloc.c: (bfd_reloc_code_real_type) added BFD_RELOC_CTOR for
118 arch independent constructor relocation type.
119 (bfd_reloc_type_lookup): removed the comment "this will go away"
120 since it won't. (bfd_howto_32): stolen from 88k, this is a 32bit
121 reloc which is used when BFD_RELOC_CTOR falls through to give a
122 default 32bit reloc for constructors.
123 (bfd_default_reloc_type_lookup): added.
124 * aoutf1.h: fixed SEGMENT_SIZE typo.
126 Thu Oct 31 18:23:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
128 * coff-rs6000.c: Change name to "aixcoff-rs6000", to avoid
129 matching prefix "coff".
130 * coffcode.h (coff_swap_aux_in, coff_swap_aux_out): Handle
131 rs/6000 csect records.
133 Sun Oct 27 16:56:58 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
135 * coff-m88k.c, targets.c: change name of m88k_bcs to m88kbcs
136 * configure.in: add motorola delta88 cases
137 * libbfd.h, libbfd-in.h, archive.c, ieee.c, elf.c, srec.c: fix
138 write_armap prototype
139 * libbfd.c: add doc on bfd_write_bigendian_4byte_int
141 Fri Oct 25 02:48:19 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
143 * Rename COFF-related files in `coff-ARCH.c' form.
144 coff-a29k.c, coff-i386.c, coff-i960.c, coff-m68k.c, coff-m88k.c,
145 coff-mips.c, coff-rs6000.c to be exact.
147 * Makefile.in: Only supply TARGET_DEFAULTS to targets.c, reducing
149 * config/mt-*: Ditto.
151 Thu Oct 24 22:40:07 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
153 RS/6000 support, by Metin G. Ozisik, Mimi Phûông-Thåo Võ, and
154 John Gilmore. Archive support from Damon A. Permezel.
156 * Makefile.in: Add cpu-rs6000.c and rs6000coff.c.

166 (bfd_swap_aouthdr_in): Handle lots more members.
167 (make_a_section_from_file): If section has already been seen,
168 just return false rather than overwriting it.
169 (coff_real_object_p): Understand incoming magic numbers.
170 (coff_set_flags): Understand outgoing magic numbers.
171 (coff_compute_section_file_positions): outgoing aouthdr magic #.

173 (get_normalized_symtab): Handle symbol names in debug string section.
174 Remove unused obj_string_table.
175 (coff_slurp_symbol_table): Handle rs6000-specific storage classes.
176 * aoutx.h (translate_from_native_sym_flags, N_SET*): Check for
177 existing section before making one.
178 * cpu-rs6000.c: New file.
179 * rs6000coff.c: New file.
181 Thu Oct 24 02:03:24 1991 Fred Fish (fnf at cygnus.com)
183 * elf.c: Add partial support for ELF format corefiles. Still needs
184 support for extracting registers from corefiles.
186 * config/t-m68k-elf: Set DEFAULT_VECTOR to elf_big_vec.
188 * config/{h-amix,h-dgux,h-irix3,h-ultra3}: For systems where
189 RANLIB is defined as echo, send the output to /dev/null to help
190 reduce clutter in the output from doing a make.
192 Mon Oct 21 17:48:48 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
194 * hosts/h-vaxult.h: Remove malloc/free decls covered in stdlib.h.
195 Fix HOST_PAGE_SIZE and HOST_SEGMENT_SIZE. From David Taylor.
197 Mon Oct 21 09:34:11 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at rtl.cygnus.com)
199 * coffcode.h (coff_compute_section_file_positions): make it pad
200 section size out if there are alignment restrictions so that the
201 image will be ok on a system where section positions are worked
202 out by accumulating sizes rather than from the section headers.
203 * targets.c (proto write_armap). Changed orl_count to unsigned.
204 * opncls.c (bfd_close_all_done). Added so that generative
205 programs like gas can close a bfd without causing bfd confusion.
206 * libbfd.h (changed becuase of protos)
207 * amdcoff.c: messed with the way that jmp displacements are
208 calcualated. This may not yet be totally correct.
209 * archive.c (coff_write_armap): rewrote the way that ranlibs are
211 * coffcode.h (fixup_symbol_value): now doesn't core dump if a non
212 abs symbol has no section (like a register symbol).
213 (coff_write_symbol) now zeros auxent before filling it up to help
214 with sensitive applications.
215 * libbfd.c (bfd_write_bigendian_4byte_int): added.
217 Wed Oct 16 22:58:45 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
219 * bfd.c: Make sure we don't get a macro strerror().
220 * opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): If FASCIST_FDOPEN, use "r", not "r+".
221 * trad-core.c (trad_unix_core_file_failing_command): Suppress
222 attempt to recover command, ifdef NO_CORE_COMMAND.
223 * hosts/h-tahoe.h: Add FASCIST_FDOPEN and NO_CORE_COMMAND;
225 * hosts/h-i386v.h: Use <utime.h>, not <sys/utime.h>, unlike POSIX.
227 Wed Oct 16 12:43:49 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
229 * archive.c (bsd_write_argmap): The size of the ranlib structures
230 should not include the size field itself.
231 * aoutx.h, libaout.h (NAME(aout, sizeof_headers)): Use
232 adata(abfd)->exec_bytes_size field instead of constant macro,
233 because aoutx.h compiles to a simple .o file shared by
234 all 32-bits a.out targets.
236 Wed Oct 16 11:11:05 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
238 * configure.in: Allow i386-sco-sysv.
239 * bout.c: Remove unused i960_align; lint dummy core file handlers.
242 * host-aout.c: New strategy. We use common code, include files,
243 and data structures to handle the file, but set a few parameters
244 from the host's config file (page size, text start addr, etc).
245 * libaout.h: Define HP BSD machine types.
246 * aoutf1.h: Handle reading a.outs with these types.
248 * trad-core.c: Pass the u.u_ar0 value as the negative of the
249 virtual-memory-address of the .reg section. We can't just make a
250 section for "all the regs and nothing else" because only GDB knows
251 exactly where the regs are (scattered around the upage and stack).
252 Clean up memory allocation. Remove big- and little-endian
253 vectors, replace with single vector; this only runs on the host,
254 in host byte order. Replace byteswap routines with aborts in case
256 * targets.c: There's only one trad_core_vec now.
257 * aoutf1.h (sunos_core_file_p): VMA of .reg* now needs to be 0.
259 Tue Oct 15 08:29:03 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
261 * hosts/h-amix.h (free): Fix prototype.
263 * aoutx.h: Don't use NULL as an integer, for braindead systems
264 that declare it as (void *)0. (From Peter Schauer.)
266 Mon Oct 14 17:20:47 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
268 * opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): Add parentheses to avoid reported
269 problem with bad Ultrix system headers.
270 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,set_section_contents)): Try to handle the
271 various kinds of alignments for the various kinds of
274 Mon Oct 14 14:23:10 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
276 * doc/Makefile: Don't assume . is on the path (from James Clark).
278 Fri Oct 11 22:45:14 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
280 * Makefile.in: Avoid Sun Make VPATH bugs.
281 * targets.c: Declare trad_core vectors extern.
283 Fri Oct 11 13:03:02 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
285 * coffcode.h: Moved ALIGN macro to libbfd.h. Removed i960_align.
286 * libbfd.h: Moved ALIGN macro here.
287 * bout.c (b_out_callback): Replace i960_align by align_power.
289 * libaout.h (struct aoutdata): Added fields page_size,
290 segment_size and exec_bytes_size. These help generic code
291 (in aoutx.h and libaout.h) to figure out where to align
292 the various segments in a demand paged file.
293 * libaout.h (WRITE_HEADER): Use new (struct aoutdata) fields
294 to decide if the exec header counts in a_text (text segment size).
295 Also, assume D_PAGED flag is set; don't set it here.
296 * bout.c (b_out_callback): Add initialization of
297 adata fields page_size, segment_size, and exec_bytes_size.
298 * host-aout.c (NAME(host_aout, callback) and
299 NAME(host_aout,mkobject): Ditto.
300 * i386aout.c (aout386_callback) and new aout386_mkobject): Ditto.
301 * newos3.c (newsos3_callback) and new newsos_mkobject): Ditto.
302 * aoutf1.c (sunos4_callback) and new sunos_mkobject): Ditto.
303 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,some_aout_object_p)): Don't subtract
304 EXEC_BYTES_SIZE from the a_test size; this is only appropriate
305 for some systems (mainly sunos), so do it in the callback instead.
306 Same routine: Add stuff to the THIS_IS_ONLY_DOCUMENTATION comment.
307 * aoutx.h (NAME(aout,set_section_contents): Change the way
308 filepos and size of sections are carried out to support
309 older styles of demand paged executables.
312 Fri Oct 11 12:33:36 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
314 * bfd-in.h: Added more macros to COFF_SWAP_TABLE.
315 * bfd.c: Added macros to enable gas to swap coff records.
316 * coffcode.h: Make the coff_swap_*_out routines return the number
317 of bytes swapped, and cleaned up their prototypes.
318 * configure.in: Added ebmon/coff support
319 * ecoff.c: Changed null definitions of coff_swap_*_out to conform
321 * targets.c: Added new entry points for coff swapping
323 Fri Oct 11 03:01:52 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
325 Restructure configuration scheme for bfd, binutils, ld.
327 * include/sys/h-*.h: Move to bfd/hosts/h-*.h.
328 * configure.in: Revise to symlink sysdep.h to hosts/h-xxx.h.
329 Change some config names to match other dirs.
330 * *.c: Include bfd.h before sysdep.h, so ansidecl and PROTO()
332 * Makefile.in: Use -I. to get sysdep.h. Remove refs to
334 * cpu-i960.c: Strncmp needed a length arg.
335 * ecoff.c: Don't ever call trad_unix_core_file_p from here.
336 * i386aout.c: Remove dead N_TXTOFF override.
337 * trad-core.c: Don't disable the whole file if SUN4_SYS.
338 * config/: Rename some config files to match up h-*.h names.
339 Remove all the HOST_SYS definitions from the config files.
340 * hosts/h-amix.h, h-i386v.h: Define POSIX_UTIME, not USG.
341 * hosts/h-hp9000.h: Remove USG comment.
342 * hosts/h-rs6000.h: Include <stdlib.h> for malloc.
343 * hosts/h-news.h, h-sparc-64.h: New config files that had
344 previously been kludged in the <sysdep.h> file.
346 Thu Oct 10 17:54:08 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
348 * config/*: trad-core support is HOST dependent, not target
349 dependent. Target config files only set DEFAULT_VECTOR and/or
350 other vector elements. Exception: when host-aout.c is in use,
351 in which case we're forced to assume we're native (hp, vax,
352 tahoe). Rename XDEPFILES to HDEPFILES.
353 * Makefile.in: Rename XDEPFILES.
354 * config/h-sun*: Don't force static linking.
355 * trad-core.c: Document how to use it nowadays.
356 * i386aout.c, newsos3.c: Clean up.
357 * i386coff.c: Allow 386 coff files to be used as core files too
358 (for reading core files from embedded systems).
360 Tue Oct 8 15:30:39 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
362 * Add i386aout.c for a.out support on the i386.
364 Tue Oct 8 12:18:54 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygnus.com)
366 * reloc.c, section.c, syms.c, targets.c: correct info-node
367 structure in *doc* comments.
368 doc/Makefile: stop hiding complaints from makeinfo.
370 Sun Oct 6 19:10:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
372 * aoutx.h (...some_aout_object_p): Take a third parameter,
373 the internal_exec struct, and avoid ever looking at an
374 external_exec. All callers changed to read the entire
375 external_exec struct, swap and check its magic number,
376 swap in the whole structure, and pass the swapped-in version to
378 * bout.c: Bring into modern era. Use single _object_p routine
379 for big- aand little-endian. Provide internal and external
380 exec header structs. Use separate swap-in and swap-out routines.
382 * libaout.h: Move struct internal_exec from ../include/aout64.h
383 to here. Add obj_symbol_entry_size to struct aoutdata.
384 * aoutx.h (...some_aout_object_p): Set obj_symbol_entry_size.
386 * ../include/aout64.h: Change EXTERNAL_LIST_SIZE to
387 EXTERNAL_NLIST_SIZE. Callers changed.
389 Fri Oct 4 18:18:46 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
391 * bfd.c: Remove strerror() to libiberty.
393 * elf.c: Remove elf_set_section_contents, use generic one. Lint.
394 * libbfd-in.h, libbfd.c: Add bfd_generic_set_section_contents.
395 * libbfd.c (bfd_generic_{get,set}_section_contents): Check that
396 last byte of transfer, not first byte, is within the section.
398 * host-aout.c: Remove `BSD' archive support. Lint.
400 * archures.c: Rename `struct bfd_arch_info_struct' to `struct
401 bfd_arch_info'. Rename `typedef bfd_arch_info_struct_type' to
402 `bfd_arch_info_type'. All uses changed.
403 * reloc.c: Rename `bfd_reloc_status_enum_type' to
404 `bfd_reloc_status_type'. Rename `bfd_reloc_code_enum_real_type'
405 to `bfd_reloc_code_real_type'. (This seems to be a misnomer,
406 it needs a better name.) All uses changed.
407 * targets.c: Rename `enum target_flavour_enum' to `enum
408 target_flavour', and remove the `_enum' from all of the enum
409 values themselves. All uses changed.
411 * configure.in, config/h-i386mach: i386 mach host.
412 * config/t-i386-aout: Use host-aout.c.
414 * trad-core.c: Give it its own xvec's to make it independent
415 of other file formats.
416 * ecoff.c, host-aout.c: Remove refs to trad-core.
417 * config/t-dec3100, t-hp300bsd, t-tahoe, t-vax: Define TRAD_CORE.
418 * targets.c: #ifdef TRAD_CORE, include it in the vector.
420 Fri Oct 4 17:38:03 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
422 * reloc.c: Extended NEWHOWTO macro
423 * ieee.c: Changed the way 8bit pcrel is done
424 * cpu-h8300.c: got the registers in the right order
426 Thu Oct 3 19:39:55 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
428 * bfd-in.h: enum boolean => enum bfd_boolean for SVR4. Gumby's
429 prediction is vindicated!
431 * bfd-in.h, libbfd-in.h, doc/Makefile, doc/tolibbfd, doc/intobfd:
432 Remove refs to howto.c, since Steve forgot.
434 Thu Oct 3 07:49:21 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
436 * elf.c: took the abort out of set_arch_mach so that objdump -i will
437 still work. Now allows any architecture/machine to be set.
439 Wed Oct 2 13:50:35 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
441 * howto.c deleted and moved code to reloc.c
443 * libbfd.h, libbfd-in.h removed $id stuff for real
445 * cpu-h8300.c Made it match various different spellings of h8300.
447 * archures.c: Took out the first char filter which made it only
448 look for a cpu/arch match when the first chars of supplied and
449 tested names were the same.
451 * targets.c removed oasys stuff, pending someone to fix the bugs
455 Tue Oct 1 12:29:44 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
457 * Makefile.in, configure.in, targets.c, elf.c: Add preliminary
458 ELF support good enough for GDB.
459 * configure.in, config/h-amix, config/t-m68k-elf: Handle
460 m68k-cbm-svr4 host and target.
461 * config/t-m68k-coff, t-m88k-coff, t-m88k-aout: Make files nonempty
462 so `diff' and `patch' can cope.
464 Tue Oct 1 11:24:31 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
466 * archures.c: removed texinfo error
468 * init.c: added texinfo hooks, and removed initialization error
471 * libcoff-in.h, libbfd-in.h removed $id field so cvs can merge
474 Tue Oct 1 05:02:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
476 * cpu-i960.c: Avoid numerical count of initializers.
478 Vax Ultrix changes from David Taylor <taylor@think.com>:
479 * host-aout.c: Make little-endian vector really little-endian.
480 * configure.in: Separate vax and tahoe cases, handle ultrix.
481 * config/t-vax: Add trad-core.o.
482 * config/h-vaxult: New host system.
484 Mon Sep 30 15:13:46 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygnus.com)
486 * bfd-in.h VERSION, change version number to 0.18, this makes a
487 gap, but now is the same as the linker version number.
489 * cpu-a29k.c, cpu-i386.c, cpu-m68k.c, cpu-mips.c, cpu-vax.c,
490 cpu-h8300.c, cpu-i960.c, cpu-m88k.c, cpu-sparc.c: added. These
491 files will eventually contain processor specific bits for bfd,
492 like strange relocation information and dis/assembly. So far only
493 the H8 has been even partially done. This work also ties in with
494 the change in handling architectures.
496 * amdcoff.c: (a29k_reloc) fix error message.
498 * aout-f1.h: (choose_reloc_size) now calls bfd_get_arch to
499 discover the architecture of the bfd. (sunos4_callback) calls the
500 function bfd_set_arch_mach rather than stuffing stuff directly
501 into the bfd. (sunos4_write_object_contents), changed names of
504 * aoutx.h: (set_arch_mach) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach to
505 setup the environment.
507 * archive.c: (bfd_slurp_coff_armap) coff archives always have the
508 headers in big endian format, regardless of the endianess of the
511 * archures.c: totally changed. Now an architecture is represented
512 with a pointer to an info structure rather than an enumerated type
513 and a long. The old info is available as two elements in the
514 structure. Future enhancements to architecure support will
515 involve pointers to methods being placed into the info structure.
517 * bfd.c: changed the definition of the bfd structure for the new
520 * bout.c: (b_out_set_arch_mach) changed to use the new
521 architecture mechanism.
523 * coffcode.h: (coff_set_arch_mach, coff_set_flags) changed to use
524 the new architecture mechanism.
526 * configure.in: added h8 stuff.
528 * ieee.c: too many changes to note. Now ieee files written with
529 bfd gas and ld can be read by gld and ieee only linkers and
532 * libbfd.c, libbfd.h: changed prototype of bfd_write.
534 * newsos3.c: (newos3_callback) now calls bfd_set_arch_mach rather
535 than fixing the structure directly.
537 * oasys.c: (oasys_object_p) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach rather
538 than fixing the structure directly.
540 * opncls.c: (new_bfd) makes sure that bfd_init has been called
541 before opening a bfd.
543 * srec.c: (srec_set_arch_mach) now calls bfd_default_set_arch_mach
544 rather than fixing the structure directly.
546 * targets.c: (target_vector) now by defining SELECT_VECS (perhaps
547 in the t/hmake file) a user can select which backends they want
548 linked with bfd without changing the source.
550 * init.c: new, looks after initializing modules.
552 * howto.c: for future use, will allow an application to work out
553 what cookie to use as a handle on a relcoatio howto.
555 Mon Sep 30 13:31:15 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
557 * srec.c: Better error checking, partly from Peter Schauer.
558 (srec_object_p): Avoid assuming any file that starts with 'S' is
559 an S-record file! (Check for 3 uppercase-hex digits after it.)
560 (ISHEX): Define new macro for checking supposedly hex characters.
561 (pass_over): Treat as EOF any S-record line that:
562 * doesn't have hex in either size character
563 * produces a size larger than 0x7F
564 * has an unrecognized type number
566 Thu Sep 26 15:27:29 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygnus.com)
568 * aoutf1.h, aoutx.h, bout.c, coffcode.h, host-aout.c, oasys.c,
569 opncls.c: Lint (saber actually).
571 Thu Sep 26 11:24:24 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
573 * libaout.h (WRITE_HEADERS): Set header's a_text field always.
574 * newsos3.c: Fixed two types: newos3 -> newsos3.
575 * reloc.c (bfd_perform_relocation): Fix pc-relative relocation
576 to use correct segment.
578 Mon Sep 23 18:24:34 1991 Per Bothner (bothner at cygnus.com)
580 * aoutx.h (print_symbol): Handle missing symbol->name.
582 Fri Sep 20 12:26:01 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygnus.com)
584 * aoutf1.h (swapcore_sparc): Change name of USRSTACK, fix comment
587 Tue Sep 17 17:23:49 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygnus.com)
589 * oasys.c, configure.in, config/h-irix3, config/t-irix3:
590 add sgi/irix support.
592 Thu Sep 12 14:29:09 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)

597 * opncls.c (bfd_fdopenr): Handle NO_FCNTL.
599 * Makefile.in: Make subdirs work by using $(INCDIR) in the
602 * coffcode.h (coff_real_object_p): Pass information about the
603 current file's coff symbol format to BFD via the coff_data struct.
604 (coff_find_nearest_line): obj_icof => coff_data.
605 (coff_swap_sym_{in,out}): Check that SYMNMLEN == E_SYMNMLEN.
606 (coff_swap_aux_{in,out}): Check that FILNMLEN == E_FILNMLEN
607 and DIMNUM == E_DIMNUM.
608 * configure.in: Handle a29k-*-* hosts, and targets
609 a29k-*-coff, a29k-*-aout, and a29k-*-sym1.
610 * libcoff-in.h: Add local_n_btmask, local_n_btshft,
611 local_n_tmask, local_n_tshift, local_symesz, local_auxesz,
612 local_linesz to `coff_data' (tdata) struct.
613 (coff_data, coff_data_type, coff_tdata): Rename struct icofdata.
614 * config/h-ultra3: Handle a29k-*-* hosts as Ultracomputers.
616 Thu Sep 12 14:07:22 1991 Roland H. Pesch (pesch at cygint.cygnus.com)
618 * Makefile.in: $(MAKE) for make, $(docdir) for doc
619 * doc/Makefile: redundant dependencies for Sun-make VPATH bug
621 Tue Sep 10 20:34:12 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
623 * aoutf1.h (sunos4_core_file_p): Release the right storage in

642 * config/* aoutx.h configure* shortened all the h/tmake-xxxx
643 to h/t-xxxx files so that everything will work on System V.
645 Fri Aug 23 13:51:06 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
647 * aoutx.h: Add information on host-aout.c and how to configure
648 to use it, to the manual.
649 * configure.in: Tix typo.
650 * ecoff.c: If compiling for DEC3100, use trad_unix core files,
651 else dummy out the core file support.
652 * trad-core.c (trad_unix_core_file_p): If HOST_DATA_START_ADDR is
653 specified, use it to locate the data section.
654 * coffcode.h (coff_write_symbols): Declare buffer as bfd_bytes
655 rather than as chars (lint).
657 Thu Aug 22 22:20:19 1991 Stu Grossman (grossman at cygint.cygnus.com)

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

773 * ../include/bfd.h (struct bfd_target): Added new field
774 "align_power_min" which contains the minimum alignment for a
775 section. This is used in coff_new_section_hook. The field
776 insertion necessitates an update of all backends..
778 * aoutf1.h jump table field inserted
780 * archive.c(snarf_ar_hdr)(bfd_slurp_coff_armap) can now parse dgux style extended
783 * bout.c(b_out_squirt_out_relocs) fix to assertion tests. Jump
784 table field inserted.
786 * coffcode.h(just about everything) Now patches up symbol tables

817 breaking a future test.
819 *../include/i386coff.h : fixed typo in type field with size
821 * i386coff.c icoff.c m88k-bcs.c ecoff.c ../include/bfd.h : Added
822 support in the jump table for the swapping routines exported to
823 gdb. Now gdb works with the 386.

831 searching, take default target in preference to others.
833 ieee.c, oasys.c: Avoid using the "tdata" macros left of assignment.
834 liba.out.h: Don't hard-code file offsets; use N_ macros for them.
835 libbfd.h: Support specific targets as well as searching.
836 opncls.c: Support specific targets as well as searching.
837 targets.c: Search is short-circuited if default target matches.
838 liboasys.c, libieee.c: Undo bothner changes that make macros
839 work to the left of assignment, but which depend on the
840 representations of different pointer types being the same.
842 Fri May 24 18:56:52 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
844 * i386coff.c: created.

864 -DHOST_64_BIT="long long" on the compile line.
867 Fri May 17 19:35:26 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
869 Changed all the [get|put][name] routines to use [get|put]_[size
872 Put in support for 64 bit work. Now two versions of bfd may be
873 generated, according to the state of TARGET_64_BIT, one which is
874 32 bit only, and one which is 64/32 bits.
875 Created new back end 'demo64' to test 64 bit functionality.

924 * libcoff.h: (struct icofdata) removed hdr structure from tdata.
926 * m68kcoff.c: updated target vector.
928 * sunos.c: (choose_reloc_size) added: (sunos4_callback) calls
929 choose_reloc_size. (sunos4_write_object_contents) now calls

950 sunos4_callback. Use JUMP_TABLE(aout) for the transver vector,
951 and redefine only the names we CHANGE, not all the names. Drop
952 the little-endian vector, and rename the vector as sunos4 rather
955 * b.out.c: Use aout.c routines for most of the work. Slight
956 changes for the new regime. Remove close_and_cleanup and
957 get_section_contents in favor of generics. New transfer vector

966 * opncls.c (bfd_close): Call format-dependent write_contents
967 routine, if writing, before calling target-dependent
968 close_and_cleanup routine (which is now always generic, I think).
969 * srec.c: Use bfd_alloc instead of malloc. Remove
970 close_and_cleanup and move code from it to
971 srec_write_object_contents. Add write_contents to tvec.
972 * targets.c: Remove a.out little vector, replace a.out big
973 vector with SunOS vector. FIXME: Need Vax support again now.
975 * libbfd.h: Add write_contents format-dependent-vector to the
976 bfd_target vector. Supply a generic close_and_cleanup routine.
977 * liba.out.h: Handle the new aout.c split. Add prototypes for
978 all routines defined in aout.c. Rename "sunos" things to "aout"
979 things. Add a few fields where needed for various formats.
980 * Makefile.in: Add aout.c and newsos.c.
982 * archive.c, ieee.c, oasys.c: Lint.
984 Fri May 10 12:34:48 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
987 changed forward declaration struct stat; to reduce warnings. Changed
988 comment on bfd_h_<x>_x.
990 * ../include/m68kcoff.h, ../include/intel-coff.h,
991 ../include/m88k-bcs.h
992 Now there are two incarnations of relocs, linenos and syments. One for
993 internal digestion, and one full of char arrays for I/O. The original
994 names have gone to detect errors.
996 * Makefile.in, m68kcoff.c, targets.c
997 Test new structure code with a 68k coff implementaion
999 * coff-code.h, icoff.c, coffswap.c, libcoff.h
1000 Fixed all the places where there were problems with the size and
1001 alignments of structures on disk and structures in memory. #ifed out
1002 all the code in coffswap.c, since it should be done using the target
1005 Thu May 9 11:00:45 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1007 * ieee.c (do_one, ieee_slurp_section_data): now supports the load
1008 multiple reloc command.
1010 * sunos.c (sunos4_set_section_contents): Made it so that sections
1011 are always padded to their alignment size.
1013 Sat May 4 15:49:43 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1015 * archive.c, bfd.c, coff-code.h, opncls.c, sunos.c, trad-core.c:
1016 Clean up types and such (saber C problems).
1017 * ecoff.c: Clean up types and such. Remove routines that are
1018 not used. Fix up reading and swapping of shorts from files.
1020 Notes on bfd-0.5.2-patch1a, from Per Bothner:
1022 * a.out.vax.c: Remove two bogus "static" from prototypes.
1024 * ecoff.c: Got rid of lots of non-working junk (that had
1025 been copied directly from coff-code.h).
1026 Updated to be consistent with updates to icoff.c and coff-code.h.
1028 * libbfd.h: Added definitions for S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, and S_IXOTH
1029 if they're missing (as they are in (BDS-4.3-based) NewsOS-3).
1031 * sunos.c (n_txtoff): (Re-)Add support for sony. This is a kludge,
1032 but until the target_vector is automatically generated,
1033 it's as good as any. Note that the text offset is the only
1034 difference between NewsOS and SunOs (including magic numbers).
1035 (Most of the sunos_* routines should to renamed bsd_*
1036 and move to a bsd.c file. Then (and when the target_vector
1037 is automatically generated) it might make sense to create
1038 a separate Sony target.)
1040 * sysdep.h: Don't declare fread and fwrite. Causes trouble
1041 on some systems, and doesn't help on others.
1042 Similarly, only define X_OK if not already defined.
1044 * trad-core.c: Don't include sys/stat.h - at least
1045 on NewsOS 3, it has already been included.
1047 Tue Mar 5 01:47:57 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1049 * coff-code.h (bfd_coff_swap_sym, bfd_coff_swap_aux,
1050 bfd_coff_swap_lineno): Export the routines that byte-swap COFF
1051 symbol tables if necessary when reading them in, so gdb can use
1052 them. Add "bfd_coff_" to the names so they won't conflict with
1053 names in calling programs. FIXME-soon: if coff-code.h is
1054 included in two BFD modules, this will cause duplicate
1055 definitions; the routines should be exported to a separate,
1056 common, module (probably along with a mess of other ones).
1058 Sat Mar 2 12:11:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1060 Improve modtime support.
1062 * bfd.h: Add boolean mtime_set, and declare bfd_get_mtime.
1063 Remove #define for bfd_get_mtime. Remove gratuitous comment.
1064 * bfd.c (bfd_get_mtime): New fn, caches mtime, gets if not cached.
1065 BUG: archive members still do not get correct mod times.
1067 Improve floating point support for core files.
1069 * sunos.c (struct core): Change void *fpa_dummy to double fp_stuff.
1070 (sunos4_core_file_p): Create a second registers section in the
1071 core file, called ".reg2", for the float registers.
1073 Thu Feb 14 15:49:06 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
1075 * many changes to improve archive handling; found a logic flaw in
1076 bfd_check_format which only just happened to work by cooncidence.
1078 Thu Feb 14 07:53:16 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1080 * bfd.c (bfd_perform_relocation): fixed to use output_offsets
1083 * bfd.h: changed type of udata in asymbol to void *, like it
1084 should be. Added bfd_reloc_dangerous enum member.
1086 * coff-code.h: Fixed it so that internally generated symbols get
1087 their values relocated correctly in all cases. Removed calls to
1090 * icoff.c: Not understanding the destination symbol of a reloc is
1091 not a failure any more, just 'dangerous'. This allows linking of
1092 b.out and coff images.
1094 * sunos.c: Cleaned up the way that ZMAGIC section sizes are
1098 Tue Feb 12 13:25:46 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1100 * sunos.c (translate_to_native_sym_flags): fixed
1101 sym_pointer->n_value so that symbols on the way out get their
1102 section relative values calculated correctly.
1104 * coff-code.h (mangle_symbols): fixed problem where tags were not
1105 being relocated for structs, enums, unions. Also various lints.
1107 Mon Feb 11 19:52:26 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
1109 * archive.c (get_elt_at_filepos): system_call_error returned
1112 Sun Feb 10 23:18:40 1991 Gumby Vinayak Wallace (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
1114 * Resolve the use of no_error and system_call_error.
1115 The bfd library itself now will never set bfd_error to
1118 The code still needs to be combed to make sure all the error
1119 codes are correct. I suspect they are not always set correctly.
1121 * The names of all the messages have _ prepended because the sun
1122 bundled compiler can't distinguish from a macro which takes an
1123 argument and the same identifier in a non-macro context.
1125 * The reason for the above being that entry points which used to
1126 be trampoline functions are now just macros which expand to a
1127 direct call through the bfd's xfer vector.
1129 * (../include/intel-coff.h) F_AR32WR: fix this constant. Why
1130 must gas have its own version of everything (the gas version
1131 had the correct value)
1133 Tue Feb 5 11:46:53 1991 Steve Chamberlain (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
1135 * b.out.c: Added patches supplied by chrisb@mipon2.intel.com to
1136 properly support i960 architecture and output correct reloc stuff.
1138 * bfd.h: added prototype for bfd_printable_arch_mach, added
1141 * coff-code.h: Applied patches from chrisb to support i960
1142 architecture, zero relocs and swap them correcly and conditionally
1143 compiled the timestamp.
1145 * sunos.c: Made the default section alignment 2^3 so that doubles
1146 are done properly. Fixed the same reloc bug that was in b.out.c
1148 * sysdep.h: Now compiles on a Posix box
1150 Wed Jan 30 21:36:26 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
1152 * icoff.c: Fix comment on big-endian version.
1153 * coff-code.h: Make HAS_RELOC really work (it's backwards from
1154 F_RELFLG). Set F_AR32WR in output files if little endian
1157 Tue Jan 29 20:56:10 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1159 * archures.c fixed =/== typo
1161 * sunos.c added architecture stuff for output. Fixed
1162 bug where files where vma(data) != size(text)
1163 were processed wrong.
1165 * coff-code.h added a lint cast
1167 * (../include/a.out.sun4.h) fixed it so zmagic
1170 Mon Jan 28 19:15:29 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1172 * archive.c removed loads of includes, and fixed bug where string
1173 table didn't have a null at the end.
1175 * bfd.c fixed includes, added symbols argument to
1176 canonicalize_reloc entry point.
1178 * libbfd.c fixed includes and added some lint patches.
1180 * targets.c added both sorts of intel coff.
1182 * b.out.c fixed included, changed was the canonical
1185 * icoff.c added support for callj and big and little
1188 * opncls.c added chmod+xing for files with EXEC_P set.
1190 * sunos.c fixed includes. Changed default section
1191 alignement to words. Fixed relocation stuff to work with
1194 * bfd.h various new types added, prototype for new
1195 reloc calls, changed bfd->iostream to a void *
1196 to including files don't need stdio.h.
1198 * libcoff.h added conversion table to tie relocs to
1203 * coff-code.h fixed includes. Added code to support
1204 big and little endian formats. Various lints. Better
1205 processing of symbols. Changed reloc stuff to new
1208 * libbfd.h fixed includes
1211 Mon Jan 21 11:53:51 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1213 * bfd.h changed name of alignment entry in sec_struct to
1214 alignment_power, because of conflicting uses within bfd.
1215 Now it should be obvious that it's a 2**n alignment
1216 specifier. Removed start_pad, end_alignment, block, minsize,
1217 output_file_alignment, subsection_alignment and original_vma fields.
1218 Added align_power() macro. Fixed bfd_section_alignment
1219 acessor macros. Added bfd_symbol_same_target macro.
1221 * b.out.c (b_out_write_object_contents) fixed to use
1222 new alignment member. Fixed (callj_callback) to use section
1223 relative symbols properly.
1225 * sunos.c (sunos4_object_p) fixed to use new alignment_power.
1226 Fixed (translate_from_native_sym_flags) to correctly make
1227 symbols section relative.
1229 * bfd.c (bfd_errmsg) fixed various enum cast problems.
1230 (bfd_make_section) took out initialization of obsolete members.
1231 (bfd_print_symbol_vandf) added
1233 * opncls.c (bfd_create) created.
1235 * coff-code.h (coff_new_section_hook) took away refs
1236 to obsolete members. (make_a_section_from_file) added
1237 conversion between alignment types. (coff_symbol_from)
1238 added. (coff_count_linenumbers) only counts linenumbers
1239 if symbol is of coff-type. (coff_mangle_symbols) only
1240 heavily mangles symbols if symbol is coff-type.
1241 (coff_write_symbols) various lints. (coff_write_object_contents)
1242 various lints and modification for alignment conversion.
1243 (coff_slurp_relocs) fixed for use with new asection shape.
1245 Sat Jan 19 16:10:42 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1247 * archive.c lots of lint
1249 * b.out.c added callj relocation support, upgrated reloc howto.
1250 Fixed so that asymbol and reloc records are output
1253 * bfd.c lots of lint, support for new bfd entry point
1256 * bfd.h changed definition of asymbol to contain pointer to
1257 owning bfd, removed target dependencies.
1259 * cache.c took out print statements, put in BFD_ASSERT calls.
1261 * coff-code.h various lints, corrected linenumber output
1262 functionality. Added support for new style asymbols and
1263 bfd_print_symbol. Fixed so that asymbol and
1264 reloc records are handled correctly. Added timestamp.
1266 * icoff.c Added support for new howto shape.
1268 * liba.out.h Added support for new asymbol shape
1270 * libbfd.c various lints
1272 * libbfd.h various lints
1274 * libcoff.h added support for new asymbol shape.
1276 * sunos.c various lints. Added support for new asymbol shape
1277 and bfd_print_symbol.
1279 Wed Jan 16 21:38:09 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
1281 * b.out.c removed prototype of sunos4_ennativate_symtab, lots of
1282 pointer lint. Added support for callj relocation. Fixed bug where
1283 the last 32 bytes of the text section were overwritten by data. Fixed bug
1284 where archives of b.out didn't work due bfd_slurp_extended_name_table
1287 * sunos.c added support for n_other field. Braced the howto table so
1288 that it won't be affected by any lengthing of the howto struct typedef.
1291 * bfd.h added support for n_other field, added special_function
1292 reloc type, modified bfd_perform_relocation prototype. Added bfd_h_get_x

1297 Wed Jan 16 01:55:53 1991 John Gilmore (gnu at rtl)
1299 * ChangeLog: Started ChangeLog for BFD.
1300 * ToDo: Create file for suggestions.
1302 * Makefile: Support easy loading into Saber C.
1303 Add dependencies for icoff.o and bcs88kcoff.o.
1304 Rename coff.c to coff-code.h. Change callers.
1306 * bfd.c (bfd_check_format): Allow the check_format routines
1307 to return the desired target vector, rather than just a Boolean.
1308 bfd.h (bfd_check_format): Change function pointer return type.
1309 archive.c (bfd_generic_archive_p): change callee.
1310 b.out.c (b_out_little_object_p, b_out_big_object_p,
1311 b_out_real_object_p): change callee.
1312 libbfd.c (_bfd_dummy_target): Dummy routine replacing bfd_false
1313 in check_format transfer vectors that need a filler.
1314 libbfd.h (bfd_generic_archive_p, _bfd_dummy_target): Fix decls.
1315 bcs88kcoff.c: change callee.
1316 coff-code.h (coff_real_object_p, coff_big_object_p): change callee.
1317 icoff.c: change callee.
1318 sunos.c (sunos4_object_p, sunos4_core_file_p): change callee.
1320 * libbfd.c (zalloc): It should actually zero the storage!
1321 This was commented out for some reason.
1323 * libbfd.h: Add malloc, xmalloc, memcpy, and fatal decls.
1324 This is so callers can avoid <stdlib.h> which doesn't exist
1327 * bfd.c (map_over_sections): Add debugging code, since I
1328 noticed the section count for sunos core files was bad, but only
1329 GDB had detected the problem.
1330 (bfd_set_section_lineno_size, bfd_set_section_linenos,
1331 bfd_get_section_linenos): Remove obsolete functions.
1332 (bfd_apply_relocations): Use longs, not ints, for the math.
1334 * bfd.h: Declare enum boolean and struct bfd_target as well
1335 as typedefs for them. Remove obsolete
1336 bfd_get_section_lineno_size.
1338 * cache.c: Make the "fdopen" support work. Keep better track
1339 of how many files are open. Centralize the opening of files
1340 and be sure bfd_open[rw] actually try to open the file. Evade
1341 linked list initialization problems.
1343 * b.out.c, coff-code.h, opncls.c, sunos.c: lint.
1345 * coff-code.h (coff_slurp_symbol_table): Null-terminate symtab names.
1347 * cplus-dem.c: Delete file, since it is not part of BFD.
1349 * opncls.c (bfd_openr): Eliminate misplaced #if 0 code.
1350 (bfd_openr, bfd_openw): Actually open the file, give error now.
1352 * sunos.c (sunos4_core_file_p): Set section count.
1353 (sunos4_set_section_linenos, stab_names, fprint_name): Eliminiate
1354 obsolete definitions.
1355 (_write_symbol_table): Initialize <idx> counter.
1356 (foop): Eliminate debugging code.
