Nick Alcock 2db912ba1a libctf: add the object index and function index sections
No code handles these yet, but our latest GCC patches are generating
them, so we have to be ready for them or erroneously conclude that we
have file corruption.

(This simultaneously fixes a longstanding bug, concealed because nothing
was generating anything in the object or function info sections, where
the end of the section was being tested against the wrong thing: it
would have walked over the entire contents of the variable section and
treated them as part of the function info section.  This had to change
now anyway because the new sections have landed in between.)

include/
	* ctf.h: Add object index and function index sections.  Describe
	them. Improve the description of the variable section and clarify
	the constraints on backward-pointing type nodes.
	(ctf_header): Add cth_objtidxoff, cth_funcidxoff.

libctf/
	* ctf-open.c (init_symtab): Check for overflow against the right
	section.
	(upgrade_header): Set cth_objtidxoff, cth_funcidxoff to zero-length.
	(upgrade_types_v1): Note that these sections are not checked.
	(flip_header): Endian-swap the header fields.
	(flip_ctf): Endian-swap the sections.
	(flip_objts): Update comment.
	(ctf_bufopen): Check header offsets and alignment for validity.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
