Indicate to obj_elf_parse_section_letters() whether to recognize GNU-
specific flags by conditionally passing NULL in place of a pointer to
the GNU attributes. This way wrong use of d and R can be diagnosed just
like any other use of unrecognized letters.
Furthermore adjust the md_elf_section_letter() interface: Have targets
merely return the extra letters they support. There's no point having
them customize the entire diagnostic. Even more so that additions in
common code would then reflecting in every target's diagnostic as well,
which - as can be seen - wasn't always properly done.
There's also no reason for wrong letters to be a fatal error; switch to
as_bad() while making other adjustments there.
While making the target specific adjustments, also drop IA-64's dead
handling of 'o' (SHF_LINK_ORDER), which has been covered by common code
for a long time.
Also re-arrange the switch() in obj_elf_parse_section_letters() to be
alphabetically sorted again.
Rename the old enum alpha_macro_arg to alpha_macro_argset, and create
a union alpha_macro_arg to use in all the alpha_macro.emit functions.
This avoids intptr_t casts on retrieving index values and void* casts
on storing them in the alpha_macros array.
Use standard sign extend and range checking using unsigned
expressions that don't rely on implementation defined right shifts or
size of short and int.
Calls to md_number_to_chars don't need to cast their value arg (*).
Remove those casts. avr_output_property_recode made a call to
md_number_to_chars with size of 1. Simplify that. tc-bpf.c
md_convert_frag used write_insn_bytes that simply copied input to
output. Dispense with that nonsense, and similarly in a couple of
other places where md_number_to_chars was called with size 1.
*) unless the value arg is an expression that needs a cast, eg. tic54x
emit_insn where the shift left could trigger signed overflow UB
without a cast.
This removes a bunch of casts involving const pointers, in some cases
by making variables const pointers so a cast is not needed. In a
couple of places the cast hid errors with "&array" written rather than
"array", see iq2000_macro_defs and s_pru_align. tc-xgate.c cmp_opcode
is changed to be the standard qsort predicate to avoid a function
cast.
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.)
Enumeration constants are integer types, so there should be no need to
cast such constants to int in expressions. (Perhaps some older gccs
warned, I checked back to gcc-4.5.) Remove some of those unnecessary
casts. Also remove unnecessary casts to bfd_reloc_code_real_type.
Many frag_var calls have unnecessary casts on arguments, no doubt from
the days when binutils was written for K&R C. (ie. functions were not
prototyped so you needed to cast anything that didn't match the
expected type after default promotions, as you still do for args
matching a function ellipsis.) Remove those casts.

Putting an explicit cast on the void* return from str_hash_find isn't
necessary and doesn't add much to code clarity. In other cases, poor
choice of function parameter types, eg. "void *value" in
tc-aarch64.c checked_hash_insert rather than "const void *value" leads
to needing (void *) casts all over the place just to cast away const.
Fix that by correcting the parameter type. (And it really is a const,
the function and str_hash_insert don't modify the strings.)
This patch also removes some unnecessary casts in hash.c
This changes elf_obj_sy.size from being malloc'd to being on the notes
obstack. That means no code needs to free these expressions, which in
turn means that the size expression can be shared when cloning
symbols. Nothing modifies the size expressions except when resolving.
In all cases I could see, if the size changes the entire expression is
replaced.

These are data generating directives not overly different from e.g.
.byte and .long. Whatever (directly) results from should also be
represented in the listing, if one was requested. It's just that the
output data is generated much later than the parsing of the directive
arguments.
... by way of introducing LEX_EOL and LEX_EOS. As a prereq convert the
remaining open-coded accesses.
The Alpha change is actually a functional one: The array slot for '!'
having been set to 1 is very unlikely to have been correct. 1 means "end
of line", when surely "end of statement" was always meant.
... instead of open-coding it. Note that writes to the array need to be
left alone; they can only be converted when the array is folded into
lex_type[].
This makes all the tc_gen_reloc functions and the associated array in
write.c:write_relocs use notes_alloc rather than malloc. tc-hppa.c
tc_gen_reloc gets a few more changes, deleting some dead code, and
tidying code that duplicates prior initialisation.
First of all make the declarations globally visible, such that producer
and consumer actually share them.
For the latter two simply add const (as PPC already had it,), while for
the former achieve the effect by converting to an array: There's no need
for the extra level of indirection.
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.
There are two problems: symbol_equated_p() doesn't recognize equates of
registers, and S_CAN_BE_REDEFINED() goes by section rather than by
expression type. Both together undermine .eqv and .equiv clearly meaning
to guard the involved symbols against re-definition (both ways).
To compensate pseudo_set() now using O_symbol and S_CAN_BE_REDEFINED()
now checking for O_register,
- for targets creating register symbols through symbol_{new,create}() ->
symbol_init() -> S_SET_VALUE() (alpha, arc, dlx, ia64, m68k, mips,
mmix, tic4x, tic54x, plus anything using cgen or itbl-ops), have
symbol_init() set their expressions to O_register,
- x86'es parse_register() also can't go by section anymore when
trying to "look through" equates; probably symbol_equated_p() should
have been used there from the beginning, if only that had worked for
equates of registers,
- various targets need to "look through" equates when parsing insn
operands (which also helps transitive forward equates); perhaps even
more ought to, but many don't look to consider the possibility of
register equates in the first place.
This was uncovered by code reported in PR gas/30274 (duplicating
PR gas/30272), except that there .eqv was used when really .equ was
meant. Therefore that bug report is addressed here only in so far as
gas wouldn't crash anymore; the code there still won't assemble
successfully, just that now the issues there are properly diagnosed.
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.
This allocates entries added to the string hash tables on the notes
obstack, so that at least those do not leak. A followup patch will
switch over the str_hash allocation to notes_calloc, which is why I
haven't implemented deleting all the target string hash tables.

Currently md_end is typically used for some final actions rather than
freeing memory like other *_end functions. Rename it to md_finish,
and rename target implementation. The renaming of target functions
makes it possible to find them all with "grep md_finish",
eg. md_mips_end is renamed to mips_md_finish, not md_mips_finish.
This patch leaves a number of md_end functions unchanged, those that
either do nothing or deallocate memory, and calls them late.
The idea here is that target maintainers implement md_end functions to
tidy memory, if anyone cares. Freeing persistent memory in gas is
not at all important, except that it can hide more important memory
leaks, those that happen once per some frequent gas operation, amongst
these unimportant memory leaks.

This file was never supposed to be widely used. The fact that it has
found its way into many gas files led to bugs, typically when code
expecting a symbolS* to point at a struct symbol is presented with a

Providing declarations in tc.h points out that alpha wasn't properly marking

X_CHARS to mmix_x_chars. Finally we can get rid of some now redundant
declarations of these constants.
