Changelog for binutils-gold-2.30-305.1.x86_64.rpm :
Mon Feb 26 13:00:00 2018 schwabAATTsuse.de
- Update to binutils 2.30

* Add --debug-dump=links option to readelf and --dwarf=links option to objdump
which displays the contents of any .gnu_debuglink or .gnu_debugaltlink
sections.
Add a --debug-dump=follow-links option to readelf and a --dwarf=follow-links
option to objdump which causes indirect links into separate debug info files
to be followed when dumping other DWARF sections.

* Add support for loaction views in DWARF debug line information.

* Add -z separate-code to generate separate code PT_LOAD segment.

* Add \"-z undefs\" command line option as the inverse of the \"-z defs\" option.

* Add -z globalaudit command line option to force audit libraries to be run
for every dynamic object loaded by an executable - provided that the loader
supports this functionality.

* Tighten linker script grammar around file name specifiers to prevent the use
of SORT_BY_ALIGNMENT and SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY on filenames. These would
previously be accepted but had no effect.

* The EXCLUDE_FILE directive can now be placed within any SORT_
* directive
within input section lists.

- Feature changes:

* The MIPS port now supports microMIPS eXtended Physical Addressing (XPA)
instructions for assembly and disassembly.

* The MIPS port now supports the microMIPS Release 5 ISA for assembly and
disassembly.

* The MIPS port now supports the Imagination interAptiv MR2 processor,

* The SPARC port now supports the SPARC M8 processor, which implements the
Oracle SPARC Architecture 2017.

method, where the separate file has a name based upon the build-id of
the original file.
GAS

* Add support for ELF SHF_GNU_MBIND.

* Add support for the WebAssembly file format and wasm32 ELF conversion.

that the registers are invalid.

* Add support for the Texas Instruments PRU processor.

* Support for the ARMv8-R architecture and Cortex-R52 processor has been
added to the ARM port.

change if --with-cpu=nps400 is used at configure time.

* Improve assignment of LMAs to orphan sections in some edge cases where a
mixture of both AT>LMA_REGION and AT(LMA) are used.

* Orphan sections placed after an empty section that has an AT(LMA) will now
take an load memory address starting from LMA.

* Section groups can now be resolved (the group deleted and the group members
placed like normal sections) at partial link time either using the new
linker option --force-group-allocation or by placing FORCE_GROUP_ALLOCATION

- Update to binutils 2.28.

* Add support for locating separate debug info files using the build-id
method, where the separate file has a name based upon the build-id of
the original file.

* This version of binutils fixes a problem with PowerPC VLE 16A and 16D
relocations which were functionally swapped, for example,
R_PPC_VLE_HA16A performed like R_PPC_VLE_HA16D while R_PPC_VLE_HA16D
performed like R_PPC_VLE_HA16A. This could have been fixed by
renumbering relocations, which would keep object files created by an
older version of gas compatible with a newer ld. However, that would
require an ABI update, affecting other assemblers and linkers that
create and process the relocations correctly. It is recommended that
all VLE object files be recompiled, but ld can modify the relocations
if --vle-reloc-fixup is passed to ld. If the new ld command line
option is not used, ld will ld warn on finding relocations inconsistent
with the instructions being relocated.

* The nm program has a new command line option (--with-version-strings)
which will display a symbol\'s version information, if any, after the
symbol\'s name.

* The ARC port of objdump now accepts a -M option to specify the extra
instruction class(es) that should be disassembled.

* The --remove-section option for objcopy and strip now accepts section
patterns starting with an exclamation point to indicate a non-matching
section. A non-matching section is removed from the set of sections
matched by an earlier --remove-section pattern.

* The --only-section option for objcopy now accepts section patterns
starting with an exclamation point to indicate a non-matching section.
A non-matching section is removed from the set of sections matched by
an earlier --only-section pattern.

* New --remove-relocations=SECTIONPATTERN option for objcopy and strip.
This option can be used to remove sections containing relocations.
The SECTIONPATTERN is the section to which the relocations apply, not
the relocation section itself.
GAS

* Add support for the RISC-V architecture.

* Add support for the ARM Cortex-M23 and Cortex-M33 processors.
GNU ld

* The EXCLUDE_FILE linker script construct can now be applied outside of the
section list in order for the exclusions to apply over all input sections
in the list.

* Add support for the RISC-V architecture.

* The command line option --no-eh-frame-hdr can now be used in ELF based
linkers to disable the automatic generation of .eh_frame_hdr sections.

* Add --in-implib= to the ARM linker to enable specifying a set of
Secure Gateway veneers that must exist in the output import library
specified by --out-implib= and the address they must have.
As such, --in-implib is only supported in combination with --cmse-implib.

* Extended the --out-implib= option, previously restricted to x86 PE
targets, to any ELF based target. This allows the generation of an import
library for an ELF executable, which can then be used by another application
to link against the executable.
GOLD

* Add -z bndplt option (x86-64 only) to support Intel MPX.

* Add --orphan-handling option.

* Add --stub-group-multi option (PowerPC only).

* Add --target1-rel, --target1-abs, --target2 options (Arm only).

* Add -z stack-size option.

* Add --be8 option (Arm only).

* Add HIDDEN support in linker scripts.

* Add SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY support in linker scripts.
