The lack of a uniform "Warning: " prefix can be irritating. Re-use
as_warn_internal(), by moving the warning count increment into the pre-
existing callers (where the flag_no_warnings checks also are). At the
same time keep the listing_warning() invocation at its place - listings
certainly should have such warnings reproduced as well.
While there also drop the unnecessary forward declarations of static
functions.
Message output from gas is prefixed with a line of the form:
path/file.s: Assembler messages:
Don't use the file name from the first message for this header.
Instead, use the source file name specified in the command line.
This removes many unnecessary NULL casts. I'm also adding a few arg
casts in concat calls, to make the code consistent. Advice from quite
a few years ago was that it's better to use the exact type for args
corresponding to function ellipses, in case NULL is defined as plain
0. (I think that happened with some early 64-bit systems. Plain NULL
ought to be OK nowadays.)
gas currently emits informational messages for context information along warnings.
In the context of system register tests in AArch64 backend, these messages
pollute the tests when checking for error message patterns in stderr output.
This patch aims at providing two new flags while preserving the existing
behavior if none of the options is provided.
* --info, similar to the existing --warn flag to enable diagnostic
informational messages (default behavior).
* --no-info, similar to the existing --no-warn flag to disable diagnostic
informational messages.
It also adds the flags to the existing documentation, and command manual.
Adds two new external authors to etc/update-copyright.py to cover
bfd/ax_tls.m4, and adds gprofng to dirs handled automatically, then
updates copyright messages as follows:
1) Update cgen/utils.scm emitted copyrights.
2) Run "etc/update-copyright.py --this-year" with an extra external
author I haven't committed, 'Kalray SA.', to cover gas testsuite
files (which should have their copyright message removed).
3) Build with --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes.
4) Check out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.
This function has a gas_assert, ie. possible call to as_abort, which
calls as_report_context, which calls as_info_where.
* messages.c (as_info_where): Don't gas_assert.
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 PR gas/16908 workaround aimed at uniformly reporting line numbers
to reference macro invocation sites. As mentioned in a comment this may
be desirable for small macros, but often isn't for larger ones. As a
first step improve diagnostics to report both locations, while aiming at
leaving generated debug info unaltered.
Note that macro invocation context is lost for any diagnostics issued
only after all input was processed (or more generally for any use of
as_*_where(), as the functions can't know whether the passed in location
is related to [part of] the present stack of locations). To maintain the
intended workaround behavior for PR gas/16908, a new as_where() is
introduced to "look through" macro invocations, while the existing
as_where() is renamed (and used in only very few places for now). Down
the road as_where() will likely want to return a list of (file,line)
pairs.
These two macros print either a 16 digit hex number or an 8 digit
hex number. Unfortunately they depend on both target and host, which
means that the output for 32-bit targets may be either 8 or 16 hex
digits.
Replace them in most cases with code that prints a bfd_vma using
PRIx64. In some cases, deliberately lose the leading zeros.
This change some output, notably in base/offset fields of m68k
disassembly which I think looks better that way, and in error
messages. I've kept leading zeros in symbol dumps (objdump -t)
and in PE header dumps.

The result of running etc/update-copyright.py --this-year, fixing all
the files whose mode is changed by the script, plus a build with
--enable-maintainer-mode --enable-cgen-maint=yes, then checking
out */po/*.pot which we don't update frequently.
The copy of cgen was with commit d1dd5fcc38ead reverted as that commit
breaks building of bfp opcodes files.
Its (documented) behavior is unhelpful in particular in 64-bit build
environments: While printing large 32-bit numbers in decimal already
isn't very meaningful to most people, this even more so goes for yet
larger 64-bit numbers. bfd_sprintf_vma() still tries to limit the number
of digits printed (without depending on a build system property), but
uniformly produces hex output.
