- fix ppc BR{,N}TAKEN reloc handling
- fix up sh_offset values of zero-sized or SHT_NOBITS section

upgraded shared library which needs more conflicts

Tue Jun 3 00:00:00 2003 Jakub Jelinek 0.2.0-26
- don\'t segfault in C++ optimizations if a conflict from undefined
to defined value is seen
- some more ppc64 work

Sat May 31 00:00:00 2003 Jakub Jelinek 0.2.0-25
- exec-shield support
- with -R, don\'t randomize just base address from which all libs

use it during rpm building

Sat May 24 00:00:00 2003 Jakub Jelinek 0.2.0-24
- optimize out conflicts in G++ 3+ virtual tables if they are just
because some method has been called from a binary and thus there
is a .plt slot in the binary. This change not only kills lots of conflicts
on some KDE programs, but also should speed up runtime (not just startup
time), since the hop through .plt is bypassed
- added new C++ test
- fix a bug in ppc64 fixup .plt code

Fri May 23 00:00:00 2003 Jakub Jelinek 0.2.0-23
- when updating dynamic tags for executable after section reshuffling,

tags attached instead of the proper ones
- when an address space conflict is found between libraries for the same
executable during layouting, check properly for all remaining conflicts
as well

Tue Aug 27 00:00:00 2002 Jakub Jelinek 0.2.0-7
- when growing allocated shared lib sections (for REL->RELA
conversion), make sure !PF_W and PF_W segments don\'t end up
on the same page
- when finding space for sections in an executable, make sure
it is not included in between two reloc sections
- for non-zero SHN_ABS symbols on 32-bit arches mask high

Sat Aug 24 00:00:00 2002 Jakub Jelinek 0.2.0-6
- make it work with libelf 0.8.2

Sat Jun 22 00:00:00 2002 Tim Powers

without monotonically increasing sh_offsets
- handle .sbss and .sdynbss
- fixed a bug in 64-bit LE/BE read routines
- removed .rel{,a}.dyn reloc conversion/sorting, it was duplicating
ld\'s -z combreloc and complicated lots of things
- fixed STB_LOCAL/STT_SECTION symbol adjusting
- use mkstemp for temporary files, allow --verify for binaries/libs
on read-only filesystems
- added DWARF-2 .debug_ranges adjustement, special case GCC\'s
\"set base to 0 and make things absolute instead of relative\" trick
- allow arches to override default layout mechanism (for ppc)
- added some new tests, test --undo and --verify modes in the testsuite
- alpha: adjust what R_ALPHA_GLOB_DAT points to too
- i386: apply _32 and _PC32 REL relocs, as apply_rel can be called
for C++ optimizations before REL->RELA conversion
- ppc: layout strategy to satisfy ppc lib location preferences
- sparc64: handle R_SPARC_DISP64
- x86-64: adjust what R_X86_64_RELATIVE points to too
- link prelink statically, esp. because of --verify mode
- run make check during build process

Tue Oct 2 00:00:00 2001 Jakub Jelinek 0.1.3-7
- fix layout code so that -R works
- on IA-32, when there are no R_386_PC32 relocs and no R_386_32 relocs
with non-zero addend (= memory content), don\'t convert REL->RELA,
only switch R_386_32 relocs to R_386_GLOB_DAT
- support creating a new PT_LOAD segment if necessary, if SHT_NOBITS
sections are small, instead of adding new PT_LOAD segment just add file
backing to those NOBITS sections
- added testsuite
- new supported architectures (Alpha including .mdebug section support,
Sparc, Sparc 64-bit, X86_64 (the last one untested)), beginning of PPC
support

Fri Sep 7 00:00:00 2001 Jakub Jelinek 0.1.3-6
- make sure lib base is always ELF page size aligned

Thu Aug 30 00:00:00 2001 Jakub Jelinek 0.1.3-5
- fix sorting of .rel
*.dyn sections, so that all RELATIVE relocs really
come first
- when DT_RELCOUNT already exists and conversion REL->RELA is done,
convert it into DT_RELACOUNT
- set conflict lookupent and conflictent to 0 for undefineds
- don\'t bother with DT_REL
*COUNT for apps, they cannot have any RELATIVE
relocs

Wed Aug 29 00:00:00 2001 Jakub Jelinek 0.1.3-4
- brown paper bag time: when determining if conversion from REL to RELA
is needed, check all non-PLT rel sections, including last.
This caused prelinking to fail with -z combreloc compiled libraries.

Tue Aug 28 00:00:00 2001 Jakub Jelinek 0.1.3-3
- don\'t use .gnu.reloc section, use .rel.dyn or .rela.dyn instead
- put RELATIVE relocs first, not last, so that DT_REL{,A}COUNT
works
- put in updated glibc patch
- no need for special binutils patch - all is done in the -z combreloc
patchset

Wed Jul 25 00:00:00 2001 Jakub Jelinek 0.1.3-2
- use the new DT_GNU_CONFLICT/DT_GNU_LIBLIST/SHT_GNU_LIBLIST constants
- unlink
*.#prelink# files if necessary

Thu Jul 19 00:00:00 2001 Jakub Jelinek 0.1.3-1
- fix layout.c
- create .gnu.prelink_undo section, --undo and --verify modes will use that
- some more C++ specific optimizations

Sat Jul 14 00:00:00 2001 Jakub Jelinek 0.1.2-1
- bail out early if ELF object does not have sh_offsets
monotonically increasing
- disallow prelinking if there are conflicts against read-only
segments in shared libraries (ie. non-pic shared libraries
- this is better than bailing out for all non-pic shared libraries)
- add some C++ specific optimizations to reduce number of conflicts,
more to come

Wed Jul 11 00:00:00 2001 Jakub Jelinek 0.1.1-2
