​

- Update to version 2.41 [PED-5778]:

* The MIPS port now supports the Sony Interactive Entertainment Allegrex

  processor, used with the PlayStation Portable, which implements the MIPS

  II ISA along with a single-precision FPU and a few implementation-specific

  integer instructions.

* Objdump's --private option can now be used on PE format files to display the

  fields in the file header and section headers.

* New versioned release of libsframe: libsframe.so.1.  This release introduces

  versioned symbols with version node name LIBSFRAME_1.0.  This release also

  updates the ABI in an incompatible way: this includes removal of

  sframe_get_funcdesc_with_addr API, change in the behavior of

  sframe_fre_get_ra_offset and sframe_fre_get_fp_offset APIs.

* SFrame Version 2 is now the default (and only) format version supported by

  gas, ld, readelf and objdump.

* Add command-line option, --strip-section-headers, to objcopy and strip to

  remove ELF section header from ELF file.

* The RISC-V port now supports the following new standard extensions:

  - Zicond (conditional zero instructions)

  - Zfa (additional floating-point instructions)

  - Zvbb, Zvbc, Zvkg, Zvkned, Zvknh[ab], Zvksed, Zvksh, Zvkn, Zvknc, Zvkng,

    Zvks, Zvksc, Zvkg, Zvkt (vector crypto instructions)

* The RISC-V port now supports the following vendor-defined extensions:

  - XVentanaCondOps

* Add support for Intel FRED, LKGS and AMX-COMPLEX instructions.

* A new .insn directive is recognized by x86 gas.

* Add SME2 support to the AArch64 port.

* The linker now accepts a command line option of --remap-inputs

  <PATTERN>=<FILE> to relace any input file that matches <PATTERN> with

  <FILE>.  In addition the option --remap-inputs-file=<FILE> can be used to

  specify a file containing any number of these remapping directives.

* The linker command line option --print-map-locals can be used to include

  local symbols in a linker map.  (ELF targets only).

* For most ELF based targets, if the --enable-linker-version option is used

  then the version of the linker will be inserted as a string into the .comment

  section.

* The linker script syntax has a new command for output sections: ASCIZ "string"

  This will insert a zero-terminated string at the current location.

* Add command-line option, -z nosectionheader, to omit ELF section

  header.

- Removed obsolete patches: binutils-2.40-branch.diff.gz,

  riscv-dynamic-tls-reloc-pie.patch, riscv-pr22263-1.patch,

  extensa-gcc-4_3-fix.diff .

- Add binutils-disable-dt-relr.sh for an compatibility problem

  caused by binutils-revert-rela.diff in SLE codestreams.

  Needed for update of glibc as that would otherwise pick up

  the broken relative relocs support.  [bsc#1213282, PED-1435]

- This only existed only for a very short while in SLE-15, as the main

  variant in devel:gcc subsumed this in binutils-revert-rela.diff.

  Hence:

- Remove binutils-disable-dt-relr.sh as subsumed.

​

- Update to version 2.40:

* Objdump has a new command line option --show-all-symbols which will make it

  display all symbols that match a given address when disassembling.  (Normally

  only the first symbol that matches an address is shown).

* Add --enable-colored-disassembly configure time option to enable colored

  disassembly output by default, if the output device is a terminal.  Note,

  this configure option is disabled by default.

* DCO signed contributions are now accepted.

* objcopy --decompress-debug-sections now supports zstd compressed debug

  sections.  The new option --compress-debug-sections=zstd compresses debug

  sections with zstd.

* addr2line and objdump --dwarf now support zstd compressed debug sections.

* The dlltool program now accepts --deterministic-libraries and

  --non-deterministic-libraries as command line options to control whether or

  not it generates deterministic output libraries.  If neither of these options

  are used the default is whatever was set when the binutils were configured.

* readelf and objdump now have a newly added option --sframe which dumps the

  SFrame section.

  ISA manual, which are implemented in the Allwinner D1.

* Add support for the RISC-V Zawrs extension, version 1.0-rc4.

* Add support for Cortex-X1C for Arm.

* New command line option --gsframe to generate SFrame unwind information

  on x86_64 and aarch64 targets.

* The linker has a new command line option to suppress the generation of any

  warning or error messages.  This can be useful when there is a need to create

  a known non-working binary.  The option is -w or --no-warnings.

* ld now supports zstd compressed debug sections.  The new option

  --compress-debug-sections=zstd compresses debug sections with zstd.

* Add --enable-default-compressed-debug-sections-algorithm={zlib,zstd}

  that selects the default compression algorithm

  for --enable-compressed-debug-sections.

​

- Update to binutils 2.39:

  * The ELF linker will now generate a warning message if the stack is made

    executable.  Similarly it will warn if the output binary contains a

    segment with all three of the read, write and execute permission

    bits set.  These warnings are intended to help developers identify

    programs which might be vulnerable to attack via these executable

    memory regions.

    The warnings are enabled by default but can be disabled via a command

    line option.  It is also possible to build a linker with the warnings

    disabled, should that be necessary.

  * The ELF linker now supports a --package-metadata option that allows

    embedding a JSON payload in accordance to the Package Metadata

    specification. 

  * In linker scripts it is now possible to use TYPE=<type> in an output

    section description to set the section type value.

  * The objdump program now supports coloured/colored syntax

    highlighting of its disassembler output for some architectures.

    (Currently: AVR, RiscV, s390, x86, x86_64).

  * The nm program now supports a --no-weak/-W option to make it ignore

    weak symbols.

  * The readelf and objdump programs now support a -wE option to prevent

    them from attempting to access debuginfod servers when following

    links.

  * The objcopy program's --weaken, --weaken-symbol, and

    --weaken-symbols options now works with unique symbols as well.

- Rebase binutils-compat-old-behaviour.diff, binutils-revert-hlasm-insns.diff,

  binutils-revert-plt32-in-branches.diff and remove binutils-2.38-branch.diff.gz.

- For now use --disable-gprofng.

- Update to binutils 2.38:

  * elfedit: Add --output-abiversion option to update ABIVERSION.

  * Add support for the LoongArch instruction set.

  * Tools which display symbols or strings (readelf, strings, nm, objdump)

    have a new command line option which controls how unicode characters are

    handled.  By default they are treated as normal for the tool.  Using

    --unicode=locale will display them according to the current locale.

    Using --unicode=hex will display them as hex byte values, whilst

    --unicode=escape will display them as escape sequences.  In addition

    using --unicode=highlight will display them as unicode escape sequences

    highlighted in red (if supported by the output device).

  * readelf -r dumps RELR relative relocations now.

  * Support for efi-app-aarch64, efi-rtdrv-aarch64 and efi-bsdrv-aarch64 has been

    added to objcopy in order to enable UEFI development using binutils.

  * ar: Add --thin for creating thin archives. -T is a deprecated alias without

    diagnostics. In many ar implementations -T has a different meaning, as

    specified by X/Open System Interface.

  * Add support for AArch64 system registers that were missing in previous

    releases.

  * Add support for the LoongArch instruction set.

  * Add a command-line option, -muse-unaligned-vector-move, for x86 target

    to encode aligned vector move as unaligned vector move.

  * Add support for Cortex-R52+ for Arm.

  * Add support for Cortex-A510, Cortex-A710, Cortex-X2 for AArch64.

  * Add support for Cortex-A710 for Arm.

  * Add support for Scalable Matrix Extension (SME) for AArch64.

  * The --multibyte-handling=[allow|warn|warn-sym-only] option tells the

    assembler what to when it encoutners multibyte characters in the input.  The

    default is to allow them.  Setting the option to "warn" will generate a

    warning message whenever any multibyte character is encountered.  Using the

    option to "warn-sym-only" will make the assembler generate a warning whenever a

    symbol is defined containing multibyte characters.  (References to undefined

    symbols will not generate warnings).

  * Outputs of .ds.x directive and .tfloat directive with hex input from

    x86 assembler have been reduced from 12 bytes to 10 bytes to match the

    output of .tfloat directive.

  * Add support for 'armv8.8-a', 'armv9-a', 'armv9.1-a', 'armv9.2-a' and

    'armv9.3-a' for -march in AArch64 GAS.

  * Add support for 'armv8.7-a', 'armv8.8-a', 'armv9-a', 'armv9.1-a',

    'armv9.2-a' and 'armv9.3-a' for -march in Arm GAS.

  * Add support for Intel AVX512_FP16 instructions.

  * Add -z pack-relative-relocs/-z no pack-relative-relocs to x86 ELF

    linker to pack relative relocations in the DT_RELR section.

  * Add support for the LoongArch architecture.

  * Add -z indirect-extern-access/-z noindirect-extern-access to x86 ELF

    linker to control canonical function pointers and copy relocation.

  * Add --max-cache-size=SIZE to set the the maximum cache size to SIZE

    bytes.

- Add binutils-2.38-branch.diff.gz.

​

- Update to binutils 2.37:

  * The GNU Binutils sources now requires a C99 compiler and library to

    build.

  * Support for the arm-symbianelf format has been removed.

  * Support for Realm Management Extension (RME) for AArch64 has been

    added.

  * A new linker option '-z report-relative-reloc' for x86 ELF targets

    has been added to report dynamic relative relocations.

  * A new linker option '-z start-stop-gc' has been added to disable

    special treatment of __start_*/__stop_* references when

    --gc-sections.

  * A new linker options '-Bno-symbolic' has been added which will

    cancel the '-Bsymbolic' and '-Bsymbolic-functions' options.

  * The readelf tool has a new command line option which can be used to

    specify how the numeric values of symbols are reported.

    --sym-base=0|8|10|16 tells readelf to display the values in base 8,

    base 10 or base 16.  A sym base of 0 represents the default action

    of displaying values under 10000 in base 10 and values above that in

    base 16.

  * A new format has been added to the nm program.  Specifying

    '--format=just-symbols' (or just using -j) will tell the program to

    only display symbol names and nothing else.

  * A new command line option '--keep-section-symbols' has been added to

    objcopy and strip.  This stops the removal of unused section symbols

    when the file is copied.  Removing these symbols saves space, but

    sometimes they are needed by other tools.

  * The '--weaken', '--weaken-symbol' and '--weaken-symbols' options

    supported by objcopy now make undefined symbols weak on targets that

    support weak symbols. 

  * Readelf and objdump can now display and use the contents of .debug_sup

    sections.

  * Readelf and objdump will now follow links to separate debug info

    files by default.  This behaviour can be stopped via the use of the

    new '-wN' or '--debug-dump=no-follow-links' options for readelf and

    the '-WN' or '--dwarf=no-follow-links' options for objdump.  Also

    the old behaviour can be restored by the use of the

    '--enable-follow-debug-links=no' configure time option.

​

    The semantics of the =follow-links option have also been slightly

    changed.  When enabled, the option allows for the loading of symbol

    tables and string tables from the separate files which can be used

    to enhance the information displayed when dumping other sections,

    but it does not automatically imply that information from the

    separate files should be displayed.

​

    If other debug section display options are also enabled (eg

    '--debug-dump=info') then the contents of matching sections in both

    the main file and the separate debuginfo file *will* be displayed.

    This is because in most cases the debug section will only be present

    in one of the files.

​

    If however non-debug section display options are enabled (eg

    '--sections') then the contents of matching parts of the separate

    debuginfo file will *not* be displayed.  This is because in most

    cases the user probably only wanted to load the symbol information

    from the separate debuginfo file.  In order to change this behaviour

    a new command line option --process-links can be used.  This will

    allow di0pslay options to applied to both the main file and any

    separate debuginfo files.

  * Nm has a new command line option: '--quiet'.  This suppresses "no

    symbols" diagnostic.

Sun Jan 24 16:56:39 UTC 2021 - Martin Liška <mliska@suse.cz>

​

- Update to binutils 2.36:

   New features in the Assembler:

    General:

     * When setting the link order attribute of ELF sections, it is now

       possible to use a numeric section index instead of symbol name.

     * Added a .nop directive to generate a single no-op instruction in

       a target neutral manner.  This instruction does have an effect on

       DWARF line number generation, if that is active.

     * Removed --reduce-memory-overheads and --hash-size as gas now

       uses hash tables that can be expand and shrink automatically.

     X86/x86_64:

       * Add support for AVX VNNI, HRESET, UINTR, TDX, AMX and Key

         Locker instructions. 

       * Support non-absolute segment values for lcall and ljmp.

       * Add {disp16} pseudo prefix to x86 assembler.

       * Configure with --enable-x86-used-note by default for Linux/x86.

     ARM/AArch64:

       * Add support for Cortex-A78, Cortex-A78AE and Cortex-X1,

         Cortex-R82, Neoverse V1, and Neoverse N2 cores.

       * Add support for ETMv4 (Embedded Trace Macrocell), ETE (Embedded

         Trace Extension), TRBE (Trace Buffer Extension), CSRE (Call

         Stack Recorder Extension) and BRBE (Branch Record Buffer

         Extension) system registers.

       * Add support for Armv8-R and Armv8.7-A ISA extensions.

       * Add support for DSB memory nXS barrier, WFET and WFIT

         instruction for Armv8.7.

       * Add support for +csre feature for -march. Add CSR PDEC

         instruction for CSRE feature in AArch64.

       * Add support for +flagm feature for -march in Armv8.4 AArch64.

       * Add support for +ls64 feature for -march in Armv8.7

         AArch64. Add atomic 64-byte load/store instructions for this

         feature. 

       * Add support for +pauth (Pointer Authentication) feature for

         -march in AArch64.

    New features in the Linker:

      * Add --error-handling-script=<NAME> command line option to allow

        a helper script to be invoked when an undefined symbol or a

        missing library is encountered.  This option can be suppressed

        via the configure time switch: --enable-error-handling-script=no.

      * Add -z x86-64-{baseline|v[234]} to the x86 ELF linker to mark

        x86-64-{baseline|v[234]} ISA level as needed.

      * Add -z unique-symbol to avoid duplicated local symbol names.

      * The creation of PE format DLLs now defaults to using a more

        secure set of DLL characteristics.

      * The linker now deduplicates the types in .ctf sections.  The new 

         command-line option --ctf-share-types describes how to do this:

         its default value, share-unconflicted, produces the most compact

         output.

      * The linker now omits the "variable section" from .ctf sections

        by default, saving space.  This is almost certainly what you

        want unless you are working on a project that has its own

        analogue of symbol tables that are not reflected in the ELF

        symtabs.

  New features in other binary tools:

      * The ar tool's previously unused l modifier is now used for

        specifying dependencies of a static library. The arguments of

        this option (or --record-libdeps long form option) will be

        stored verbatim in the __.LIBDEP member of the archive, which

        the linker may read at link time.

      * Readelf can now display the contents of LTO symbol table

        sections when asked to do so via the --lto-syms command line

        option.

      * Readelf now accepts the -C command line option to enable the

        demangling of symbol names.  In addition the --demangle=<style>,

        --no-demangle, --recurse-limit and --no-recurse-limit options

        are also now availale.

​

- Update to 2.35.1 and rebased branch diff:

  * This is a point release over the previous 2.35 version, containing bug

  fixes, and as an exception to the usual rule, one new feature.  The

  new feature is the support for a new directive in the assembler:

  ".nop".  This directive creates a single no-op instruction in whatever

  encoding is correct for the target architecture.  Unlike the .space or

  .fill this is a real instruction, and it does affect the generation of

  DWARF line number tables, should they be enabled.

  * The asseembler can now produce DWARF-5 format line number tables.

  * Readelf now has a "lint" mode to enable extra checks of the files it is processing.

  * Readelf will now display "[...]" when it has to truncate a symbol name.  

    The old behaviour - of displaying as many characters as possible, up to

    the 80 column limit - can be restored by the use of the --silent-truncation

    option.

  * The linker can now produce a dependency file listing the inputs that it

    has processed, much like the -M -MP option supported by the compiler.

    on inputs and use PLTs protected with BTI.

  * Add -z pac-plt for AArch64 to pick PAC enabled PLTs.

  * Add --source-comment[=<txt>] option to objdump which if present,

    provides a prefix to source code lines displayed in a disassembly.

  * Add --set-section-alignment <section-name>=<power-of-2-align>

    option to objcopy to allow the changing of section alignments.

  * Add --verilog-data-width option to objcopy for verilog targets to

    control width of data elements in verilog hex format.

  * The separate debug info file options of readelf (--debug-dump=links

    and --debug-dump=follow) and objdump (--dwarf=links and

    --dwarf=follow-links) will now display and/or follow multiple

    links if more than one are present in a file.  (This usually

    happens when gcc's -gsplit-dwarf option is used).

    In addition objdump's --dwarf=follow-links now also affects its

    other display options, so that for example, when combined with

    --syms it will cause the symbol tables in any linked debug info

    files to also be displayed.  In addition when combined with

    --disassemble the --dwarf= follow-links option will ensure that

    any symbol tables in the linked files are read and used when

    disassembling code in the main file.

  * Add support for dumping types encoded in the Compact Type Format

    to objdump and readelf.

- Update to binutils 2.32:

    * The binutils now support for the C-SKY processor series.

    * The x86 assembler now supports a -mvexwig=[0|1] option to control

      encoding of VEX.W-ignored (WIG) VEX instructions.

      It also has a new -mx86-used-note=[yes|no] option to generate (or

      not) x86 GNU property notes.  

    * The MIPS assembler now supports the Loongson EXTensions R2 (EXT2),

      the Loongson EXTensions (EXT) instructions, the Loongson Content

      Address Memory (CAM) ASE and the Loongson MultiMedia extensions

      Instructions (MMI) ASE.

    * The addr2line, c++filt, nm and objdump tools now have a default

      limit on the maximum amount of recursion that is allowed whilst

      demangling strings.  This limit can be disabled if necessary.

    * Objdump's --disassemble option can now take a parameter,

      specifying the starting symbol for disassembly.  Disassembly will

      continue from this symbol up to the next symbol or the end of the

      function.

    * The BFD linker will now report property change in linker map file

      when merging GNU properties.

    * The BFD linker's -t option now doesn't report members within

      archives, unless -t is given twice.  This makes it more useful

      when generating a list of files that should be packaged for a

      linker bug report.

    * The GOLD linker has improved warning messages for relocations that

      refer to discarded sections.

- Update to binutils 2.31

  * The AArch64 port now supports showing disassembly notes which are emitted

    when inconsistencies are found with the instruction that may result in the

    instruction being invalid.  These can be turned on with the option -M notes

    to objdump.

  * The AArch64 port now emits warnings when a combination of an instruction and

    a named register could be invalid.

  * Added O modifier to ar to display member offsets inside an archive

  * The ADR and ADRL pseudo-instructions supported by the ARM assembler

    now only set the bottom bit of the address of thumb function symbols

    if the -mthumb-interwork command line option is active.

  * Add --generate-missing-build-notes=[yes|no] option to create (or not) GNU

    Build Attribute notes if none are present in the input sources.  Add a

    --enable-generate-build-notes=[yes|no] configure time option to set the

    default behaviour.  Set the default if the configure option is not used

    to "no".

  * Remove -mold-gcc command-line option for x86 targets.

  * Add -O[2|s] command-line options to x86 assembler to enable alternate

    shorter instruction encoding.

  * Add support for .nops directive.  It is currently supported only for

    x86 targets.

  * Speed up direct linking with DLLs for Cygwin and Mingw targets.

  * Add a configure option --enable-separate-code to decide whether

    -z separate-code should be enabled in ELF linker by default.  Default

    to yes for Linux/x86 targets.  Note that -z separate-code can increase

    disk and memory size.

  * Includes riscv-relax-size.patch, riscv-relax-relocatable.patch,

    riscv-relax-versioned-hidden.patch and riscv-wrap-relax.patch

- Refresh enable-targets-gold.diff.

  * Add --debug-dump=links option to readelf and --dwarf=links option to objdump

    which displays the contents of any .gnu_debuglink or .gnu_debugaltlink

    sections.

    Add a --debug-dump=follow-links option to readelf and a --dwarf=follow-links

    option to objdump which causes indirect links into separate debug info files

    to be followed when dumping other DWARF sections.

  * Add support for loaction views in DWARF debug line information.

  * Add -z separate-code to generate separate code PT_LOAD segment.

  * Add "-z undefs" command line option as the inverse of the "-z defs" option.

  * Add -z globalaudit command line option to force audit libraries to be run

    for every dynamic object loaded by an executable - provided that the loader

    supports this functionality.

  * Tighten linker script grammar around file name specifiers to prevent the use

    of SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT and SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY on filenames.  These would

    previously be accepted but had no effect.

  * The EXCLUDE_FILE directive can now be placed within any SORT_* directive

    within input section lists.

- Feature changes:

  * The MIPS port now supports microMIPS eXtended Physical Addressing (XPA)

    instructions for assembly and disassembly.

  * The MIPS port now supports the microMIPS Release 5 ISA for assembly and

    disassembly.

  * The MIPS port now supports the Imagination interAptiv MR2 processor,

    which implements the MIPS32r3 ISA, the MIPS16e2 ASE as well as a couple

    of implementation-specific regular MIPS and MIPS16e2 ASE instructions.

  * The SPARC port now supports the SPARC M8 processor, which implements the

    Oracle SPARC Architecture 2017.

  * The MIPS port now supports the MIPS16e2 ASE for assembly and disassembly.

  * Add support for ELF SHF_GNU_MBIND and PT_GNU_MBIND_XXX.

  * Add support for the wasm32 ELF conversion of the WebAssembly file format.

  * Add --inlines option to objdump, which extends the --line-numbers option

    so that inlined functions will display their nesting information.

  * Add --merge-notes options to objcopy to reduce the size of notes in

    a binary file by merging and deleting redundant notes.

  * Add support for locating separate debug info files using the build-id

    method, where the separate file has a name based upon the build-id of

    the original file.

  GAS

  * Add support for ELF SHF_GNU_MBIND.

  * Add support for the WebAssembly file format and wasm32 ELF conversion.

  * PowerPC gas now checks that the correct register class is used in

    instructions.  For instance, "addi %f4,%cr3,%r31" warns three times

    that the registers are invalid.

  * Add support for the Texas Instruments PRU processor.

  * Support for the ARMv8-R architecture and Cortex-R52 processor has been

    added to the ARM port.

  GNU ld

  * Support for -z shstk in the x86 ELF linker to generate

    GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_SHSTK in ELF GNU program properties.

  * Add support for GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_SHSTK in ELF GNU program

    properties in the x86 ELF linker.

  * Add support for GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_IBT in ELF GNU program

    properties in the x86 ELF linker.

  * Support for -z ibtplt in the x86 ELF linker to generate IBT-enabled

    PLT.

  * Support for -z ibt in the x86 ELF linker to generate IBT-enabled

    PLT as well as GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_IBT in ELF GNU program

    properties.

  * Add support for ELF SHF_GNU_MBIND and PT_GNU_MBIND_XXX.

  * Add support for ELF GNU program properties.

  * Add support for the Texas Instruments PRU processor.

  * When configuring for arc*-*-linux* targets the default linker emulation will

    change if --with-cpu=nps400 is used at configure time.

  * Improve assignment of LMAs to orphan sections in some edge cases where a

    mixture of both AT>LMA_REGION and AT(LMA) are used.

  * Orphan sections placed after an empty section that has an AT(LMA) will now

    take an load memory address starting from LMA.

  * Section groups can now be resolved (the group deleted and the group members

    placed like normal sections) at partial link time either using the new

    linker option --force-group-allocation or by placing FORCE_GROUP_ALLOCATION

    into the linker script.

- Includes binutils-bso21193.diff, binutils-bso21333.diff and

  fix-security-bugs.diff.

- Remove ld-dtags.diff, instead configure with --enable-new-dtags.

- Refresh binutils-build-as-needed.diff.

- Remove binutils-2.28-branch.diff.
