592819f718 run_dump_test warning/error regexp
This allows you to specify a run_dump_test warning that may or may not
be present using
warning: (warning_text_goes_here)?
ie. the regexp matches an empty string.

4d890484df elf: Add GNU_PROPERTY_MEMORY_SEAL gnu property
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).

c4ab4dd7bd aarch64 DWARF: add new CFI directive for PAuth_LR
This patch adds a new CFI directive (cfi_negate_ra_state_with_pc) which
set an additional bit in the RA state to inform that RA was signed with
SP but also PC as an additional diversifier.

RA state | Description
0b00     | Return address not signed (default if no cfi_negate_ra_state*)
0b01     | Return address signed with SP (cfi_negate_ra_state)
0b10     | Invalid state
0b11     | Return address signed with SP+PC (cfi_negate_ra_state_with_pc)

9b854f169d ld: Add LTO and none-LTO output support for ld -r
Link with mixed IR/non-IR objects

* 2 kinds of object files
  o non-IR object file has
    * non-IR sections
  o IR object file has
    * IR sections
    * non-IR sections
    * The output of "ld -r" with mixed IR/non-IR objects should work with:
        o Compilers/linkers with IR support.
	o Compilers/linkers without IR support.
* Add the mixed object file which has
  o IR sections
  o non-IR sections:
    * Object codes from IR sections.
    * Object codes from non-IR object files.
  o Object-only section:
    * With section name ".gnu_object_only" and SHT_GNU_OBJECT_ONLY type
    on ELF:
    https://gitlab.com/x86-psABIs/Linux-ABI
    #define SHT_GNU_OBJECT_ONLY 0x6ffffff8	/* Object only */
    * Contain non-IR object file.
    * Input is discarded after link.
* Linker action:
  o Classify each input object file:
    * If there is a ".gnu_object_only" section, it is a mixed object file.
    * If there is a IR section, it is an IR object file.
    * Otherwise, it is a non-IR object file.
  o Relocatable non-IR link:
    * Prepare for an object-only output.
    * Prepare for a regular output.
    * For each mixed object file:
      * Add IR and non-IR sections to the regular output.
      * For object-only section:
	* Extract object only file.
	* Add it to the object-only output.
	* Discard object-only section.
    * For each IR object file:
      * Add IR and non-IR sections to the regular output.
    * For each non-IR object file:
      * Add non-IR sections to the regular output.
      * Add non-IR sections to the object-only output.
    * Final output:
      * If there are IR objects, non-IR objects and the object-only
      output isn't empty:
	* Put the object-only output into the object-only section.
	* Add the object-only section to the regular output.
	* Remove the object-only output.
  o Normal link and relocatable IR link:
    * Prepare for output.
    * IR link:
      * For each mixed object file:
	* Compile and add IR sections to the output.
	* Discard non-IR sections.
	* Object-only section:
	  * Extract object only file.
	  * Add it to the output.
	  * Discard object-only section.
      * For each IR object file:
        * Compile and add IR sections to the output.
	* Discard non-IR sections.
      * For each non-IR object file:
	* Add non-IR sections to the output.
    * Non-IR link:
      * For each mixed object file:
	* Add non-IR sections to the output.
	* Discard IR sections and object-only section.
      * For each IR object file:
	* Add non-IR sections to the output.
	* Discard IR sections.
      * For each non-IR object file:
	* Add non-IR sections to the output.

This is useful for Linux kernel build with LTO.

f832531609 ar and foreign object files
ar is supposed to make archives containing any sort of file, and it
generally does that.  It also tries to make archives suited to target
object files stored.  Some targets have peculiar archives.

In one particular case we get into trouble trying to suit archives to
object files: where the target object file is recognised but that
target doesn't happen to support archives, and the default target has
a special archive format.  For example, we'll get failures on
rs6000-aix if trying to add tekhex objects to a new archive.  What
happens in that the tekhex object is recognised and its target vector
used to create an empty archive, ie. with _bfd_generic_mkarchive and
_bfd_write_archive_contents.  An attempt is then made to open the
newly created archive.  The tekhex target vector does not have a
check_format function to recognise generic archives, nor as it happens
do any of the xcoff or other targets built for rs6000-aix.

It seems to me the simplest fix is to not use any target vector to
create archives where that vector can't also recognise them.  That's
what this patch does, and to reinforce that I've removed target vector
support for creating empty archives from such targets.

This field is always set to point to asection.symbol, and no code ever

creates two sections with separate pointers to their symbols, and uses
those as asection.symbol_ptr_ptr.  Those pointers aren't modified,

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.

  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].

e7a16d9fd6 nios2: Remove binutils support for Nios II target.
The Nios II architecture has been EOL'ed by the vendor.  This patch
removes all binutils, bfd, gas, binutils, and opcodes support for this
target with the exception of the readelf utility.  (The ELF EM_*
number remains valid and the relocation definitions from the Nios II
ABI will never change in future, so retaining the readelf support
seems consistent with its purpose as a utility that tries to parse the
headers in any ELF file provided as an argument regardless of target.)

d5cbf916be gas/ELF: also reject merge entity size being zero
This won't have any useful effect, so is at best marginally less bogus
than a negative value.

The change actually points out a flawed (for Arm) testcase: @ is a
comment character there.

eeff15bc88 binutils: fix -std=gnu23 compatibility wrt _Bool
GCC trunk now defaults to -std=gnu23. We return false in a few places
which can't work when true/false are a proper type (_Bool). Return NULL
where appropriate instead of false. All callers handle this appropriately.

ChangeLog:
	PR ld/32372

	* prdbg.c (visibility_name): Return NULL.

004a5bfc72 RISC-V: Dump instruction without checking architecture support as usual.
Since QEMU have supported -Max option to to enable all normal extensions,
the dis-assembler should also add an option, -M,max to do the same thing.
For the instruction, which have overlapped encodings like zfinx, will not
be considered by the -M,max option.

	* riscv-dis.c (all_ext): New static boolean.  If set, disassemble
	without checking architectire string.
	(riscv_disassemble_insn): Likewise.
	(parse_riscv_dis_option_without_args): Recognized -M,max option.

program exits with an error on OOM.

bc85bc665a Add noxfail option to run_dump_test
The noxfail option is useful in situations like pr23658-1e which
fails on all microblaze ELF targets except microblaze-linux.  This was
possible to handle by writing a small proc and use that as an xfail
predicate, or painstakingly listing all microblaze ELF targets, but
this is simpler.  The patch also fixes some other FAILs and XPASSes of
the pr23658 tests.

binutils/
	* testsuite/lib/binutils-common.exp (run_dump_test): Support
	noxfail.
ld/
	* testsuite/ld-elf/pr23658-1a.d: Don't xfail m68hc12.
	* testsuite/ld-elf/pr23658-1e.d: Likewise.  xfail xstormy16
	and correct microblaze xfails.

1f1b5e506b bfd/ELF: restrict file alignment for object files
While for executables properly aligning sections within the file can be
quite relevant, the same is of pretty little importance for relocatable
object files. Avoid passing "true" into
_bfd_elf_assign_file_position_for_section() when dealing with object
files, but compensate minimally by applying log_file_align in such
cases as a cap to the alignment put in place.

124deb3101 Revised "Don't return (null) from bfd_elf_sym_name"
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.
