The Floating Point Mode Register is a new register which controls the
behaviour of FP8 instructions. This is handled by the Linux kernel
through a new NT_ARM_FPMR register set.
This patch adds required code to support core file dumps with
NT_ARM_FPMR in them.

So far, SFrame sections were of type SHT_PROGBITS.
As per ELF specification, SHT_PROGBITS indicates that the section holds
information defined by the program, whose format and meaning are
determined solely by the program.
On the linker side, SHT_PROGBITS should be reserved for the simple "cat
contents after applying relocs" semantics.
Currently, the only way to know that a section contains SFrame stack
trace data is if consumer checks for section name. Such a check for
section name is not quite conformant to ELF principles.
Some of this was discussed here
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2025-March/140181.html
With this change, the SFrame sections generated by gas, ld will have
section type set to SHT_GNU_SFRAME. The new section type is defined in
the SHT_LOOS/SHT_HIOS space. The SFrame parsing routine
_bfd_elf_parse_sframe () now admits sections only when the the section
type is SHT_GNU_SFRAME.
No special handling / validation is done at the moment for the case of
manual creation of SFrame sections via obj_elf_section (). Add function
level comments for now to add a note about this.
Although the default handling for (sh_type >= SHT_LOOS && sh_type <=
SHT_HIOS) is sufficient when SHT_GNU_SFRAME is in that range, it makes
sense to add it as a case of its own.

This patch adds two new GNU properties for RISC-V:
GNU_PROPERTY_RISCV_FEATURE_1_CFI_SS and GNU_PROPERTY_RISCV_FEATURE_1_CFI_LP_UNLABELED.
We only add readelf and define the properties in this patch.
Ref: https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-elf-psabi-doc/pull/417
The GNU_PROPERTY_MEMORY_SEAL gnu property is a way to mark binaries
to be memory sealed by the loader, to avoid further changes of
PT_LOAD segments (such as unmapping or change permission flags).
This is done along with Linux kernel (the mseal syscall [1]), and
C runtime supports to instruct the kernel on the correct time during
program startup (for instance, after RELRO handling). This support
is added along the glibc support to handle the new gnu property [2].
This is a opt-in security features, like other security hardening
ones like NX-stack or RELRO.
The new property is ignored if present on ET_REL objects, and only
added on ET_EXEC/ET_DYN if the linker option is used. A gnu property
is used instead of DT_FLAGS_1 flag to allow memory sealing to work
with ET_EXEC without PT_DYNAMIC support (at least on glibc some ports
still do no support static-pie).

This patch adds support for Guarded Control Stack in AArch64 linker.
This patch implements the following:
1) Defines GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_GCS bit for GCS in
GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_AND macro.
2) Adds readelf support to read and print the GCS feature in GNU
properties in AArch64.
Displaying notes found in: .note.gnu.property
[ ]+Owner[ ]+Data size[ ]+Description
GNU 0x00000010 NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0
Properties: AArch64 feature: GCS
3) Adds support for the "-z gcs" linker option and document all the values
allowed with this option (-z gcs[=always|never|implicit]) where "-z gcs" is
equivalent to "-z gcs=always". When '-z gcs' option is omitted from the
command line, it defaults to "implicit" and relies on the GCS feature
marking in GNU properties.
4) Adds support for the "-z gcs-report" linker option and document all the
values allowed with this option (-z gcs-report[=none|warning|error]) where
"-z gcs-report" is equivalent to "-z gcs-report=warning". When this option
is omitted from the command line, it defaults to "warning".
The ABI changes adding GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_GCS to the GNU
property GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_AND is merged into main and
can be found in [1].

After the software configures the watchpoints for fetch, the processor
hardware will monitor the access addresses of the fetch operations and
trigger a watchpoint exception when the watchpoint setting conditions
are met.
Hardware watchpoints for fetch operations is used to implement hardware
breakpoint function on LoongArch. Refer to the following document for

Define NT_X86_SHSTK which is the note for x86 Shadow Stack (SHSTK) to
support Intel SHSTK in Linux kernel.
For now only userspace shadow stack and kernel IBT are supported by the
linux kernel. This note should be used instead of NT_X86_CET introduced
in the commit "x86: Add NT_X86_CET note", as it is outdated and only
used by old binutils versions.
Linux kernel commit commit 317c8194e6ae ("rseq: Introduce feature size
and alignment ELF auxiliary vector entries") introduced two new auxvs:
AT_RSEQ_FEATURE_SIZE and AT_RSEQ_ALIGN. Support them in GDB. This

The Scalable Matrix Extension v2 (SME2) defines a new register, ZT0, that
the Linux Kernel handles through a new NT_ARM_ZT register set.
Teach binutils/BFD about it so that gdb can make use of it for reading
and writing core files. This also enables readelf/objdump to show the
correct identification for the NT_ARM_ZT register set.

The linker merges all the input .sframe sections. When merging, the
linker verifies that all the input .sframe sections have the same
abi/arch.
The linker uses libsframe library to perform key actions on the
.sframe sections - decode, read, and create output data. This
implies buildsystem changes to make and install libsframe before
libbfd.
The linker places the output .sframe section in a new segment of its
own: PT_GNU_SFRAME. A new segment is not added, however, if the
generated .sframe section is empty.
When a section is discarded from the final link, the corresponding
entries in the .sframe section for those functions are also deleted.
The linker sorts the SFrame FDEs on start address by default and sets
the SFRAME_F_FDE_SORTED flag in the .sframe section.
This patch also adds support for generation of SFrame unwind
information for the .plt* sections on x86_64. SFrame unwind info is
generated for IBT enabled PLT, lazy/non-lazy PLT.
The existing linker option --no-ld-generated-unwind-info has been
adapted to include the control of whether .sframe unwind information
will be generated for the linker generated sections like PLT.
Changes to the linker script have been made as necessary.

FreeBSD's kernel has recently added two new ELF auxiliary vector
entries to describe the location of the user stack for the initial
thread in a process.
This change displays the proper name and description of these entries
in 'info auxv'.
This core dump note contains the value of the base address of the %fs
and %gs segments for both i386 and amd64 core dumps. It is primarily
useful in resolving the address of TLS variables in core dumps.

Add support for the AMDGCN architecture to BFD.
This is the bare minimum to get
$ ./configure --target=amdgcn-hsa-amdhsa --disable-gas
$ make all-binutils
working later in this series.
The specific AMDGCN models added here are a bit arbitrary, based on
what we intend to initially support in GDB. This list will need to be
updated in the future anyway. The complete up-to-date list of existing
AMDGPU models can be found here:
https://llvm.org/docs/AMDGPUUsage.html#processors
The ELF format for this architecture is documented here:
https://llvm.org/docs/AMDGPUUsage.html#elf-code-object
The flags for the "HSA" OS ABI are properly versioned and documented on
that page. But the NONE, PAL and MESA3D OS ABIs are not well documented
nor versioned. Taking a peek at the LLVM source code, we see that they
encode their flags the same way as HSA v3. For example, for PAL:
c8b614cd74/llvm/lib/Target/AMDGPU/MCTargetDesc/AMDGPUTargetStreamer.cpp (L601)
So at least, we know that all AMDGPU objects (of which AMDGCN objects
are a subset of) at the time of writing encode the specific GPU model in
the EF_AMDGPU_MACH field of e_flags.

FreeBSD's kernel has recently added two new ELF auxiliary vector
entries. AT_FXRNG points to a root seed version for the kernel's
PRNG. Userland can use this to reseed a userland PRNG after the

x86: correct overflow checking for 16-bit PC-relative relocs
caused linker failure when building 16-bit program in a 32-bit ELF
container. Update GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_2_USED with
#define GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_2_CODE16 (1U << 12)
to indicate that 16-bit mode instructions are used in the input object:
https://groups.google.com/g/x86-64-abi/c/UvvXWeHIGMA
to indicate that 16-bit mode instructions are used in the object to
allow linker to properly perform relocation overflow check for 16-bit
PC-relative relocations in 16-bit mode instructions.
1. Update x86 assembler to always generate the GNU property note with
GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_2_CODE16 for .code16 in ELF object.
2. Update i386 and x86-64 linkers to use 16-bit PC16 relocations if
input object is marked with GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_2_CODE16.
