This puts back %F into translated fatal error messages (and reverts a
few other small changes), to not disturb translation work done for the
2.44 branch.
ld -w currently causes segmentation faults and other misbehaviour
since it changes einfo with %F in the format string (fatal error) to
not exit. This patch fixes that by introducing a new variant of einfo
called "fatal" that always exits, and replaces all einfo calls using
%F with a call to fatal without the %F. I considered modifying einfo
to inspect the first 2 or 4 chars in the format string, looking for
%F, but decided that was probably a bad idea given that translators
might have moved the %F. It's also a little nicer to inform the
compiler of a function that doesn't return.
The patch also fixes some formatting nits, and makes use of %pA
to print section names in a couple of places in aix.em.

Commit 68bbe11833 results in a lot of follow up work, much of which
likely is still to be done. (And yes, since this is all for corrupted
or fuzzed object files, a whole lot of work doesn't much benefit
anyone. It was a bad idea to put NULL in asymbol->name.) So I'm
changing the approach to instead put a unique empty string for symbols
with a corrupted st_name. An empty string won't require much work to
ensure nm, objcopy, objdump etc. won't crash, since these tools
already must work with unnamed local symbols.
The unique empty string is called bfd_symbol_error_name. This patch
uses that name string for corrupted symbols in the ELF and COFF
backends. Such symbols are displayed by nm and objdump as the
translated string "<corrupt>", which is what the COFF backend used to
put directly into corrupted symbols.
ie. it's the way I should have written the original patch, plus a few
tides and cleanups I retained from the reverted patches.
A NULL return from bfd_elf_string_from_elf_section indicates an error.
That shouldn't be masked by bfd_elf_sym_name but rather passed up to
callers such as group_signature. If we want to print "(null)" then
that should be done at a higher level. That's what this patch does,
except that I chose to print "<null>" instead, like readelf. If we
see "(null)" we're probably passing a NULL to printf. I haven't
changed aoutx.h or pdp11.c print_symbol functions because they already
handle NULL names by omitting the name. I also haven't changed
mach-o.c, mmo.c, som.c, srec.c, tekhex.c, vms-alpha.c and
wasm-module.c print_symbol function because it looks like they will
never have NULL symbol names.

This patch is aimed at making __bss_start properly aligned with the
first of any bss-style sections following. Most of the work here
involves keeping track of the last output section seen when processing
the linker script.
You can almost align __bss_start properly by using
${RELOCATING+. = ALIGN(${DATA_SDATA-${NO_SMALL_DATA-ALIGNOF(.${SBSS_NAME}) != 0 ? ALIGNOF(.${SBSS_NAME}) : }}${BSS_PLT+ALIGNOF(.plt) != 0 ? ALIGNOF(.plt) : }ALIGNOF(.${BSS_NAME}));}
and changing every place that defines NO_SMALL_DATA to use " ", but
having two .plt sections (marked SPECIAL) on some backends foils that
idea. The problem is that you only want to pick up the following
.plt, not the one preceeding __bss_start in the data segment if the
backend decides that is the proper .plt section.
Perhaps that could be fixed too, but I decided instead to extend the
linker script a little. THIS_SECTION and PREV_SECTION could easily be
added too.

rewriting the section matching routines lost a special case
of matching: section statements of the form
NAME(section-glob)
normally match against NAME being an object file, but like in
the exclude list we happened to accept archive names as NAME
(undocumented). The documented way to specify (all) archive members
is by using e.g.
lib.a:(section-glob)
(that does work also with the prefix tree matcher).
But I intended to not actually change behaviour with the prefix
tree implementation. So, let's also implement checking against
archive names with a similar FIXME comment we already have in

since af31506c we only use the binary tree when section sorting is
required. While its unbalanced and hence can degrade to a linear list
it should otherwise have been equivalent to the old code relying on
insertion sort. Unfortunately it was not. The old code directly used
lang_add_section to populate the sorted list, the new code first
populates the tree and only then does lang_add_section on the sorted
result.
In the testcase we have very many linkonce section groups, and hence
lang_add_section won't actually insert anything for most of them. That
limited the to-be-sorted list length previously. The tree-sorting code
OTOH first created a tree of all candidates sections, including those
that wouldn't be inserted by lang_add_section, hence increasing the size
of the sorting problem. In the testcase the chain length went from
about 1500 to 106000, and in the degenerated case (as in the testcase)
that goes in quadratically.
This splits out most of the early-out code from lang_add_section to its
own function and uses the latter to avoid inserting into the tree. This
refactoring slightly changes the order of early-out tests (the ones
based on section flags is now done last, and only in lang_add_section).
The new function is not a pure predicate: it can give warnings and it
might change output_section, like the old early-out code did. I have
also added a skip-warning case in the first discard case, whose
non-existence seemed to have been an oversight.

when using many wild-statements with non-wildcard filenames we
were running into quadraticness via repeatedly using lookup_name
on a long list of loaded files. I've originally retained using
lookup_name because that preserved existing behaviour most obviously.
In particular in matching wild-statements when using a non-wildcard
filename it matches against local_sym_name, not the filename member.
If the wildspec would have an archive-spec or a wildcard it would use
the filename member, though. Also it would load the named file
(and ignore it, as being not equal to the currently considered
input-statement).
Rewrite this to not use lookup_name but retain the comparison
against local_sym_name with a comment to that effect.

Revert "Prevent the ASCII linker script directive from generating huge amounts of padding if the size expression is not a constant."
This reverts commit adbe951fc9.
Revert "ld test asciz and ascii fails"
This reverts the ascii.d part of commit 5f497256be.
Revert "Add support for the ASCII directive inside linker scripts."
This mostly reverts commit 9fe129a410
leaving the asciz.d and asciz.t changes in place.
This is a hopefully temporary reversion of new ld features for
embedded processors by Ulf Samuelsson, plus some followup patches.

The segfault was a symptom of messing with the absolute section next
field, confusing bfd_section_removed_from_list in linker.c:fix_syms.
That's not all that was going wrong. The INSERT list of output
sections was being inserted into itself, ie. lost from the main
list of linker statements.

* ldlang.c (process_insert_statements): Handle pathological
case of the insert script being inserted before the first
output section statement in the default script.

the early-out in wild_sort is not enough, it might still be
that filenames are equal _and_ the wildcard list doesn't specify
a sort order either. Don't call compare_section then.
Tested on all targets.
Revert 1c66b8a039 and instead fix the broken list pointer.

* pe-dll.c (build_filler_bfd): Revert last change.
* ldlang.c (lang_process): When rescanning archives for lto,
fix file_chain.tail pointer if the insert point happens to be
at the end of the list.
The newer update-copyright.py fixes file encoding too, removing cr/lf
on binutils/bfdtest2.c and ld/testsuite/ld-cygwin/exe-export.exp, and
embedded cr in binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/ar.exp string match.
The warning about discarded sections in elf_link_input_bfd doesn't
belong there since the code is dealing with symbols. Multiple symbols
in a discarded section will result in multiple identical warnings
about the section. Move the warning to a new function in ldlang.c.
The patch also tidies the warning quoting of section and file names,
consistently using `%pA' and `%pB'. I'm no stickler for one style of
section and file name quoting, but they ought to be consistent within
a warning, eg. see the first one fixed in ldlang.c, and when a warning
is emitted for multiple targets they all ought to use exactly the same
format string to reduce translation work. elf64-ppc.c loses the
build_one_stub errors since we won't get there before hitting the
fatal errors in size_one_stub.
