     36 1 Introduction
     37 **************
     38 
     39 BFD is a package which allows applications to use the same routines to
     40 operate on object files whatever the object file format.  A new object
     41 file format can be supported simply by creating a new BFD back end and
     42 adding it to the library.
     43 
     44    BFD is split into two parts: the front end, and the back ends (one
     45 for each object file format).
     46    * The front end of BFD provides the interface to the user. It manages
     47      memory and various canonical data structures. The front end also
     48      decides which back end to use and when to call back end routines.
     49 
     50    * The back ends provide BFD its view of the real world. Each back
     51      end provides a set of calls which the BFD front end can use to
     52      maintain its canonical form. The back ends also may keep around
     53      information for their own use, for greater efficiency.

     64 1.1 History
     65 ===========
     66 
     67 One spur behind BFD was the desire, on the part of the GNU 960 team at
     68 Intel Oregon, for interoperability of applications on their COFF and
     69 b.out file formats.  Cygnus was providing GNU support for the team, and
     70 was contracted to provide the required functionality.
     71 
     72    The name came from a conversation David Wallace was having with
     73 Richard Stallman about the library: RMS said that it would be quite
     74 hard--David said "BFD".  Stallman was right, but the name stuck.
     75 
     76    At the same time, Ready Systems wanted much the same thing, but for
     77 different object file formats: IEEE-695, Oasys, Srecords, a.out and 68k
     78 coff.
     79 
     80    BFD was first implemented by members of Cygnus Support; Steve
     81 Chamberlain (`sac (a] cygnus.com'), John Gilmore (`gnu (a] cygnus.com'), K.
     82 Richard Pixley (`rich (a] cygnus.com') and David Henkel-Wallace
     83 (`gumby (a] cygnus.com').
     84 
     85 
     86 File: bfd.info,  Node: How It Works,  Next: What BFD Version 2 Can Do,  Prev: History,  Up: Overview
     87 
     88 1.2 How To Use BFD
     89 ==================
     90 
     91 To use the library, include `bfd.h' and link with `libbfd.a'.
     92 
     93    BFD provides a common interface to the parts of an object file for a
     94 calling application.
     95 
     96    When an application successfully opens a target file (object,
     97 archive, or whatever), a pointer to an internal structure is returned.
     98 This pointer points to a structure called `bfd', described in `bfd.h'.
     99 Our convention is to call this pointer a BFD, and instances of it
    100 within code `abfd'.  All operations on the target object file are
    101 applied as methods to the BFD.  The mapping is defined within `bfd.h'
    102 in a set of macros, all beginning with `bfd_' to reduce namespace
    103 pollution.
    104 
    105    For example, this sequence does what you would probably expect:
    106 return the number of sections in an object file attached to a BFD
    107 `abfd'.
    108 
    109      #include "bfd.h"
    110 
    111      unsigned int number_of_sections (abfd)
    112      bfd *abfd;
    113      {
    114        return bfd_count_sections (abfd);
    115      }
    116 
    117    The abstraction used within BFD is that an object file has:
    118 
    119    * a header,
    120 
    121    * a number of sections containing raw data (*note Sections::),
    122 
    123    * a set of relocations (*note Relocations::), and
    124 
    125    * some symbol information (*note Symbols::).
    126    Also, BFDs opened for archives have the additional attribute of an
    127 index and contain subordinate BFDs. This approach is fine for a.out and
    128 coff, but loses efficiency when applied to formats such as S-records and
    129 IEEE-695.
    130 
    131 
    132 File: bfd.info,  Node: What BFD Version 2 Can Do,  Prev: How It Works,  Up: Overview
    133 
    134 1.3 What BFD Version 2 Can Do
    135 =============================
    136 
    137 When an object file is opened, BFD subroutines automatically determine
    138 the format of the input object file.  They then build a descriptor in
    139 memory with pointers to routines that will be used to access elements of
    140 the object file's data structures.
    141 
    142    As different information from the object files is required, BFD
    143 reads from different sections of the file and processes them.  For
    144 example, a very common operation for the linker is processing symbol
    145 tables.  Each BFD back end provides a routine for converting between
    146 the object file's representation of symbols and an internal canonical
    147 format. When the linker asks for the symbol table of an object file, it
    148 calls through a memory pointer to the routine from the relevant BFD
    149 back end which reads and converts the table into a canonical form.  The
    150 linker then operates upon the canonical form. When the link is finished
    151 and the linker writes the output file's symbol table, another BFD back
    152 end routine is called to take the newly created symbol table and
    153 convert it into the chosen output format.

    161 File: bfd.info,  Node: BFD information loss,  Next: Canonical format,  Up: What BFD Version 2 Can Do
    162 
    163 1.3.1 Information Loss
    164 ----------------------
    165 
    166 _Information can be lost during output._ The output formats supported
    167 by BFD do not provide identical facilities, and information which can
    168 be described in one form has nowhere to go in another format. One
    169 example of this is alignment information in `b.out'. There is nowhere
    170 in an `a.out' format file to store alignment information on the
    171 contained data, so when a file is linked from `b.out' and an `a.out'
    172 image is produced, alignment information will not propagate to the
    173 output file. (The linker will still use the alignment information
    174 internally, so the link is performed correctly).
    175 
    176    Another example is COFF section names. COFF files may contain an
    177 unlimited number of sections, each one with a textual section name. If
    178 the target of the link is a format which does not have many sections
    179 (e.g., `a.out') or has sections without names (e.g., the Oasys format),
    180 the link cannot be done simply. You can circumvent this problem by
    181 describing the desired input-to-output section mapping with the linker
    182 command language.
    183 
    184    _Information can be lost during canonicalization._ The BFD internal
    185 canonical form of the external formats is not exhaustive; there are
    186 structures in input formats for which there is no direct representation
    187 internally.  This means that the BFD back ends cannot maintain all
    188 possible data richness through the transformation between external to
    189 internal and back to external formats.
    190 
    191    This limitation is only a problem when an application reads one
    192 format and writes another.  Each BFD back end is responsible for
    193 maintaining as much data as possible, and the internal BFD canonical
    194 form has structures which are opaque to the BFD core, and exported only
    195 to the back ends. When a file is read in one format, the canonical form
    196 is generated for BFD and the application. At the same time, the back
    197 end saves away any information which may otherwise be lost. If the data
    198 is then written back in the same format, the back end routine will be
    199 able to use the canonical form provided by the BFD core as well as the
    200 information it prepared earlier.  Since there is a great deal of
    201 commonality between back ends, there is no information lost when
    202 linking or copying big endian COFF to little endian COFF, or `a.out' to
    203 `b.out'.  When a mixture of formats is linked, the information is only
    204 lost from the files whose format differs from the destination.

    208 
    209 1.3.2 The BFD canonical object-file format
    210 ------------------------------------------
    211 
    212 The greatest potential for loss of information occurs when there is the
    213 least overlap between the information provided by the source format,
    214 that stored by the canonical format, and that needed by the destination
    215 format. A brief description of the canonical form may help you
    216 understand which kinds of data you can count on preserving across
    217 conversions.  
    218 
    219 _files_
    220      Information stored on a per-file basis includes target machine
    221      architecture, particular implementation format type, a demand
    222      pageable bit, and a write protected bit.  Information like Unix
    223      magic numbers is not stored here--only the magic numbers' meaning,
    224      so a `ZMAGIC' file would have both the demand pageable bit and the
    225      write protected text bit set.  The byte order of the target is
    226      stored on a per-file basis, so that big- and little-endian object
    227      files may be used with one another.
    228 
    229 _sections_
    230      Each section in the input file contains the name of the section,
    231      the section's original address in the object file, size and
    232      alignment information, various flags, and pointers into other BFD
    233      data structures.
    234 
    235 _symbols_
    236      Each symbol contains a pointer to the information for the object
    237      file which originally defined it, its name, its value, and various
    238      flag bits.  When a BFD back end reads in a symbol table, it
    239      relocates all symbols to make them relative to the base of the
    240      section where they were defined.  Doing this ensures that each
    241      symbol points to its containing section.  Each symbol also has a
    242      varying amount of hidden private data for the BFD back end.  Since
    243      the symbol points to the original file, the private data format
    244      for that symbol is accessible.  `ld' can operate on a collection
    245      of symbols of wildly different formats without problems.
    246 
    247      Normal global and simple local symbols are maintained on output,
    248      so an output file (no matter its format) will retain symbols
    249      pointing to functions and to global, static, and common variables.
    250      Some symbol information is not worth retaining; in `a.out', type
    251      information is stored in the symbol table as long symbol names.
    252      This information would be useless to most COFF debuggers; the
    253      linker has command line switches to allow users to throw it away.
    254 
    255      There is one word of type information within the symbol, so if the
    256      format supports symbol type information within symbols (for
    257      example, COFF, IEEE, Oasys) and the type is simple enough to fit
    258      within one word (nearly everything but aggregates), the
    259      information will be preserved.
    260 
    261 _relocation level_
    262      Each canonical BFD relocation record contains a pointer to the
    263      symbol to relocate to, the offset of the data to relocate, the
    264      section the data is in, and a pointer to a relocation type
    265      descriptor. Relocation is performed by passing messages through
    266      the relocation type descriptor and the symbol pointer. Therefore,
    267      relocations can be performed on output data using a relocation
    268      method that is only available in one of the input formats. For
    269      instance, Oasys provides a byte relocation format.  A relocation
    270      record requesting this relocation type would point indirectly to a
    271      routine to perform this, so the relocation may be performed on a
    272      byte being written to a 68k COFF file, even though 68k COFF has no
    273      such relocation type.
    274 
    275 _line numbers_
    276      Object formats can contain, for debugging purposes, some form of
    277      mapping between symbols, source line numbers, and addresses in the
    278      output file.  These addresses have to be relocated along with the
    279      symbol information.  Each symbol with an associated list of line
    280      number records points to the first record of the list.  The head
    281      of a line number list consists of a pointer to the symbol, which
    282      allows finding out the address of the function whose line number
    283      is being described. The rest of the list is made up of pairs:
    284      offsets into the section and line numbers. Any format which can
    285      simply derive this information can pass it successfully between
    286      formats (COFF, IEEE and Oasys).

    471 2.2 Error reporting
    472 ===================
    473 
    474 Most BFD functions return nonzero on success (check their individual
    475 documentation for precise semantics).  On an error, they call
    476 `bfd_set_error' to set an error condition that callers can check by
    477 calling `bfd_get_error'.  If that returns `bfd_error_system_call', then
    478 check `errno'.
    479 
    480    The easiest way to report a BFD error to the user is to use
    481 `bfd_perror'.
    482 
    483 2.2.1 Type `bfd_error_type'
    484 ---------------------------
    485 
    486 The values returned by `bfd_get_error' are defined by the enumerated
    487 type `bfd_error_type'.

    489 
    490      typedef enum bfd_error

    527 *Synopsis*
    528      void bfd_set_error (bfd_error_type error_tag, ...);
    529    *Description*
    530 Set the BFD error condition to be ERROR_TAG.  If ERROR_TAG is
    531 bfd_error_on_input, then this function takes two more parameters, the
    532 input bfd where the error occurred, and the bfd_error_type error.

    539    *Description*
    540 Return a string describing the error ERROR_TAG, or the system error if
    541 ERROR_TAG is `bfd_error_system_call'.

    545 
    546 *Synopsis*
    547      void bfd_perror (const char *message);
    548    *Description*
    549 Print to the standard error stream a string describing the last BFD
    550 error that occurred, or the last system error if the last BFD error was
    551 a system call failure.  If MESSAGE is non-NULL and non-empty, the error
    552 string printed is preceded by MESSAGE, a colon, and a space.  It is
    553 followed by a newline.
    554 
    555 2.2.2 BFD error handler
    556 -----------------------
    557 
    558 Some BFD functions want to print messages describing the problem.  They
    559 call a BFD error handler function.  This function may be overridden by
    560 the program.
    561 
    562    The BFD error handler acts like printf.
    563 
    564 
    565      typedef void (*bfd_error_handler_type) (const char *, ...);

    579      void bfd_set_error_program_name (const char *);
    580    *Description*
    581 Set the program name to use when printing a BFD error.  This is printed
    582 before the error message followed by a colon and space.  The string
    583 must not be changed after it is passed to this function.
    584 
    585 2.2.2.3 `bfd_get_error_handler'

    604    *Description*
    605 Return the number of bytes required to store the relocation information
    606 associated with section SECT attached to bfd ABFD.  If an error occurs,
    607 return -1.
    608 
    609 2.3.1.2 `bfd_canonicalize_reloc'
    610 ................................
    611 
    612 *Synopsis*
    613      long bfd_canonicalize_reloc
    614         (bfd *abfd, asection *sec, arelent **loc, asymbol **syms);
    615    *Description*
    616 Call the back end associated with the open BFD ABFD and translate the
    617 external form of the relocation information attached to SEC into the
    618 internal canonical form.  Place the table into memory at LOC, which has
    619 been preallocated, usually by a call to `bfd_get_reloc_upper_bound'.
    620 Returns the number of relocs, or -1 on error.
    621 
    622    The SYMS table is also needed for horrible internal magic reasons.
    623 
    624 2.3.1.3 `bfd_set_reloc'

    628      void bfd_set_reloc
    629         (bfd *abfd, asection *sec, arelent **rel, unsigned int count);
    630    *Description*
    631 Set the relocation pointer and count within section SEC to the values
    632 REL and COUNT.  The argument ABFD is ignored.
    633 
    634 2.3.1.4 `bfd_set_file_flags'

    637 *Synopsis*
    638      bfd_boolean bfd_set_file_flags (bfd *abfd, flagword flags);
    639    *Description*
    640 Set the flag word in the BFD ABFD to the value FLAGS.
    641 
    642    Possible errors are:
    643    * `bfd_error_wrong_format' - The target bfd was not of object format.
    644 
    645    * `bfd_error_invalid_operation' - The target bfd was open for
    646      reading.
    647 
    648    * `bfd_error_invalid_operation' - The flag word contained a bit
    649      which was not applicable to the type of file.  E.g., an attempt
    650      was made to set the `D_PAGED' bit on a BFD format which does not
    651      support demand paging.

    658    *Description*
    659 Returns the architecture address size, in bits, as determined by the
    660 object file's format.  For ELF, this information is included in the
    661 header.
    662 
    663    *Returns*
    664 Returns the arch size in bits if known, `-1' otherwise.

    669 *Synopsis*
    670      int bfd_get_sign_extend_vma (bfd *abfd);
    671    *Description*
    672 Indicates if the target architecture "naturally" sign extends an
    673 address.  Some architectures implicitly sign extend address values when
    674 they are converted to types larger than the size of an address.  For
    675 instance, bfd_get_start_address() will return an address sign extended
    676 to fill a bfd_vma when this is the case.
    677 
    678    *Returns*
    679 Returns `1' if the target architecture is known to sign extend
    680 addresses, `0' if the target architecture is known to not sign extend
    681 addresses, and `-1' otherwise.

    699    *Description*
    700 Return the maximum size of objects to be optimized using the GP
    701 register under MIPS ECOFF.  This is typically set by the `-G' argument
    702 to the compiler, assembler or linker.

    718      bfd_vma bfd_scan_vma (const char *string, const char **end, int base);
    719    *Description*
    720 Convert, like `strtoul', a numerical expression STRING into a `bfd_vma'
    721 integer, and return that integer.  (Though without as many bells and
    722 whistles as `strtoul'.)  The expression is assumed to be unsigned
    723 (i.e., positive).  If given a BASE, it is used as the base for
    724 conversion.  A base of 0 causes the function to interpret the string in
    725 hex if a leading "0x" or "0X" is found, otherwise in octal if a leading
    726 zero is found, otherwise in decimal.
    727 
    728    If the value would overflow, the maximum `bfd_vma' value is returned.

    918    *Description*
    919 When testing an object for compatibility with a particular target
    920 back-end, the back-end object_p function needs to set up certain fields
    921 in the bfd on successfully recognizing the object.  This typically
    922 happens in a piecemeal fashion, with failures possible at many points.
    923 On failure, the bfd is supposed to be restored to its initial state,
    924 which is virtually impossible.  However, restoring a subset of the bfd
    925 state works in practice.  This function stores the subset and
    926 reinitializes the bfd.

    934 This function restores bfd state saved by bfd_preserve_save.  If MARKER
    935 is non-NULL in struct bfd_preserve then that block and all subsequently
    936 bfd_alloc'd memory is freed.

    944 This function should be called when the bfd state saved by
    945 bfd_preserve_save is no longer needed.  ie. when the back-end object_p
    946 function returns with success.

    992 The `struct bfd_iovec' contains the internal file I/O class.  Each
    993 `BFD' has an instance of this class and all file I/O is routed through
    994 it (it is assumed that the instance implements all methods listed
    995 below).
    996      struct bfd_iovec
    997      {
    998        /* To avoid problems with macros, a "b" rather than "f"

   1019 ........................
   1020 
   1021 *Synopsis*
   1022      long bfd_get_mtime (bfd *abfd);
   1023    *Description*
   1024 Return the file modification time (as read from the file system, or
   1025 from the archive header for archive members).
   1026 
   1027 2.3.1.26 `bfd_get_size'
   1028 .......................
   1029 
   1030 *Synopsis*
   1031      long bfd_get_size (bfd *abfd);
   1032    *Description*
   1033 Return the file size (as read from file system) for the file associated
   1034 with BFD ABFD.
   1035 
   1036    The initial motivation for, and use of, this routine is not so we
   1037 can get the exact size of the object the BFD applies to, since that
   1038 might not be generally possible (archive members for example).  It
   1039 would be ideal if someone could eventually modify it so that such
   1040 results were guaranteed.
   1041 
   1042    Instead, we want to ask questions like "is this NNN byte sized
   1043 object I'm about to try read from file offset YYY reasonable?"  As as
   1044 example of where we might do this, some object formats use string
   1045 tables for which the first `sizeof (long)' bytes of the table contain
   1046 the size of the table itself, including the size bytes.  If an
   1047 application tries to read what it thinks is one of these string tables,
   1048 without some way to validate the size, and for some reason the size is
   1049 wrong (byte swapping error, wrong location for the string table, etc.),
   1050 the only clue is likely to be a read error when it tries to read the
   1051 table, or a "virtual memory exhausted" error when it tries to allocate
   1052 15 bazillon bytes of space for the 15 bazillon byte table it is about
   1053 to read.  This function at least allows us to answer the question, "is
   1054 the size reasonable?".

   1077 2.4 Memory Usage
   1078 ================
   1079 
   1080 BFD keeps all of its internal structures in obstacks. There is one
   1081 obstack per open BFD file, into which the current state is stored. When
   1082 a BFD is closed, the obstack is deleted, and so everything which has
   1083 been allocated by BFD for the closing file is thrown away.
   1084 
   1085    BFD does not free anything created by an application, but pointers
   1086 into `bfd' structures become invalid on a `bfd_close'; for example,
   1087 after a `bfd_close' the vector passed to `bfd_canonicalize_symtab' is
   1088 still around, since it has been allocated by the application, but the
   1089 data that it pointed to are lost.
   1090 
   1091    The general rule is to not close a BFD until all operations dependent
   1092 upon data from the BFD have been completed, or all the data from within
   1093 the file has been copied. To help with the management of memory, there
   1094 is a function (`bfd_alloc_size') which returns the number of bytes in
   1095 obstacks associated with the supplied BFD. This could be used to select
   1096 the greediest open BFD, close it to reclaim the memory, perform some
   1097 operation and reopen the BFD again, to get a fresh copy of the data
   1098 structures.

   1124 ============
   1125 
   1126 The raw data contained within a BFD is maintained through the section
   1127 abstraction.  A single BFD may have any number of sections.  It keeps
   1128 hold of them by pointing to the first; each one points to the next in
   1129 the list.
   1130 
   1131    Sections are supported in BFD in `section.c'.

   1143 2.6.1 Section input
   1144 -------------------
   1145 
   1146 When a BFD is opened for reading, the section structures are created
   1147 and attached to the BFD.
   1148 
   1149    Each section has a name which describes the section in the outside
   1150 world--for example, `a.out' would contain at least three sections,
   1151 called `.text', `.data' and `.bss'.
   1152 
   1153    Names need not be unique; for example a COFF file may have several
   1154 sections named `.data'.
   1155 
   1156    Sometimes a BFD will contain more than the "natural" number of
   1157 sections. A back end may attach other sections containing constructor
   1158 data, or an application may add a section (using `bfd_make_section') to
   1159 the sections attached to an already open BFD. For example, the linker
   1160 creates an extra section `COMMON' for each input file's BFD to hold
   1161 information about common storage.
   1162 
   1163    The raw data is not necessarily read in when the section descriptor
   1164 is created. Some targets may leave the data in place until a
   1165 `bfd_get_section_contents' call is made. Other back ends may read in
   1166 all the data at once.  For example, an S-record file has to be read
   1167 once to determine the size of the data. An IEEE-695 file doesn't
   1168 contain raw data in sections, but data and relocation expressions
   1169 intermixed, so the data area has to be parsed to get out the data and
   1170 relocations.

   1175 2.6.2 Section output
   1176 --------------------
   1177 
   1178 To write a new object style BFD, the various sections to be written
   1179 have to be created. They are attached to the BFD in the same way as
   1180 input sections; data is written to the sections using
   1181 `bfd_set_section_contents'.
   1182 
   1183    Any program that creates or combines sections (e.g., the assembler
   1184 and linker) must use the `asection' fields `output_section' and
   1185 `output_offset' to indicate the file sections to which each section
   1186 must be written.  (If the section is being created from scratch,
   1187 `output_section' should probably point to the section itself and
   1188 `output_offset' should probably be zero.)
   1189 
   1190    The data to be written comes from input sections attached (via
   1191 `output_section' pointers) to the output sections.  The output section
   1192 structure can be considered a filter for the input section: the output
   1193 section determines the vma of the output data and the name, but the
   1194 input section determines the offset into the output section of the data
   1195 to be written.
   1196 
   1197    E.g., to create a section "O", starting at 0x100, 0x123 long,
   1198 containing two subsections, "A" at offset 0x0 (i.e., at vma 0x100) and
   1199 "B" at offset 0x20 (i.e., at vma 0x120) the `asection' structures would
   1200 look like:
   1201 
   1202         section name          "A"
   1203           output_offset   0x00
   1204           size            0x20
   1205           output_section ----------->  section name    "O"
   1206                                   |    vma             0x100
   1207         section name          "B" |    size            0x123
   1208           output_offset   0x20    |
   1209           size            0x103   |
   1210           output_section  --------|
   1211 
   1212 2.6.3 Link orders
   1213 -----------------
   1214 
   1215 The data within a section is stored in a "link_order".  These are much
   1216 like the fixups in `gas'.  The link_order abstraction allows a section
   1217 to grow and shrink within itself.
   1218 
   1219    A link_order knows how big it is, and which is the next link_order
   1220 and where the raw data for it is; it also points to a list of
   1221 relocations which apply to it.
   1222 
   1223    The link_order is used by the linker to perform relaxing on final
   1224 code.  The compiler creates code which is as big as necessary to make
   1225 it work without relaxing, and the user can select whether to relax.
   1226 Sometimes relaxing takes a lot of time.  The linker runs around the
   1227 relocations to see if any are attached to data which can be shrunk, if
   1228 so it does it on a link_order by link_order basis.

   1768 2.6.5.1 `bfd_section_list_clear'
   1769 ................................
   1770 
   1771 *Synopsis*
   1772      void bfd_section_list_clear (bfd *);
   1773    *Description*
   1774 Clears the section list, and also resets the section count and hash
   1775 table entries.
   1776 
   1777 2.6.5.2 `bfd_get_section_by_name'
   1778 .................................
   1779 
   1780 *Synopsis*
   1781      asection *bfd_get_section_by_name (bfd *abfd, const char *name);
   1782    *Description*
   1783 Run through ABFD and return the one of the `asection's whose name
   1784 matches NAME, otherwise `NULL'.  *Note Sections::, for more information.
   1785 
   1786    This should only be used in special cases; the normal way to process
   1787 all sections of a given name is to use `bfd_map_over_sections' and
   1788 `strcmp' on the name (or better yet, base it on the section flags or
   1789 something else) for each section.
   1790 
   1791 2.6.5.3 `bfd_get_section_by_name_if'
   1792 ....................................

   1798          bfd_boolean (*func) (bfd *abfd, asection *sect, void *obj),
   1799          void *obj);
   1800    *Description*
   1801 Call the provided function FUNC for each section attached to the BFD
   1802 ABFD whose name matches NAME, passing OBJ as an argument. The function
   1803 will be called as if by
   1804 
   1805             func (abfd, the_section, obj);
   1806 
   1807    It returns the first section for which FUNC returns true, otherwise
   1808 `NULL'.
   1809 
   1810 2.6.5.4 `bfd_get_unique_section_name'
   1811 .....................................
   1812

   1814      char *bfd_get_unique_section_name
   1815         (bfd *abfd, const char *templat, int *count);
   1816    *Description*
   1817 Invent a section name that is unique in ABFD by tacking a dot and a
   1818 digit suffix onto the original TEMPLAT.  If COUNT is non-NULL, then it
   1819 specifies the first number tried as a suffix to generate a unique name.
   1820 The value pointed to by COUNT will be incremented in this case.
   1821 
   1822 2.6.5.5 `bfd_make_section_old_way'
   1823 ..................................
   1824 
   1825 *Synopsis*
   1826      asection *bfd_make_section_old_way (bfd *abfd, const char *name);
   1827    *Description*
   1828 Create a new empty section called NAME and attach it to the end of the
   1829 chain of sections for the BFD ABFD. An attempt to create a section with
   1830 a name which is already in use returns its pointer without changing the
   1831 section chain.
   1832 
   1833    It has the funny name since this is the way it used to be before it
   1834 was rewritten....
   1835 
   1836    Possible errors are:
   1837    * `bfd_error_invalid_operation' - If output has already started for
   1838      this BFD.
   1839 
   1840    * `bfd_error_no_memory' - If memory allocation fails.

   1847         (bfd *abfd, const char *name, flagword flags);
   1848    *Description*
   1849 Create a new empty section called NAME and attach it to the end of the
   1850 chain of sections for ABFD.  Create a new section even if there is
   1851 already a section with that name.  Also set the attributes of the new
   1852 section to the value FLAGS.
   1853 
   1854    Return `NULL' and set `bfd_error' on error; possible errors are:
   1855    * `bfd_error_invalid_operation' - If output has already started for
   1856      ABFD.
   1857 
   1858    * `bfd_error_no_memory' - If memory allocation fails.

   1863 *Synopsis*
   1864      asection *bfd_make_section_anyway (bfd *abfd, const char *name);
   1865    *Description*
   1866 Create a new empty section called NAME and attach it to the end of the
   1867 chain of sections for ABFD.  Create a new section even if there is
   1868 already a section with that name.
   1869 
   1870    Return `NULL' and set `bfd_error' on error; possible errors are:

   1872      ABFD.
   1873 
   1874    * `bfd_error_no_memory' - If memory allocation fails.

   1881         (bfd *, const char *name, flagword flags);
   1882    *Description*
   1883 Like `bfd_make_section_anyway', but return `NULL' (without calling
   1884 bfd_set_error ()) without changing the section chain if there is
   1885 already a section named NAME.  Also set the attributes of the new
   1886 section to the value FLAGS.  If there is an error, return `NULL' and set
   1887 `bfd_error'.
   1888 
   1889 2.6.5.9 `bfd_make_section'
   1890 ..........................
   1891 
   1892 *Synopsis*
   1893      asection *bfd_make_section (bfd *, const char *name);
   1894    *Description*
   1895 Like `bfd_make_section_anyway', but return `NULL' (without calling
   1896 bfd_set_error ()) without changing the section chain if there is
   1897 already a section named NAME.  If there is an error, return `NULL' and
   1898 set `bfd_error'.

   1902 
   1903 *Synopsis*
   1904      bfd_boolean bfd_set_section_flags
   1905         (bfd *abfd, asection *sec, flagword flags);
   1906    *Description*
   1907 Set the attributes of the section SEC in the BFD ABFD to the value
   1908 FLAGS. Return `TRUE' on success, `FALSE' on error. Possible error
   1909 returns are:
   1910 
   1911    * `bfd_error_invalid_operation' - The section cannot have one or
   1912      more of the attributes requested. For example, a .bss section in
   1913      `a.out' may not have the `SEC_HAS_CONTENTS' field set.
   1914 
   1915 2.6.5.11 `bfd_map_over_sections'
   1916 ................................
   1917

   1921          void (*func) (bfd *abfd, asection *sect, void *obj),
   1922          void *obj);
   1923    *Description*
   1924 Call the provided function FUNC for each section attached to the BFD
   1925 ABFD, passing OBJ as an argument. The function will be called as if by
   1926 
   1927             func (abfd, the_section, obj);
   1928 
   1929    This is the preferred method for iterating over sections; an
   1930 alternative would be to use a loop:
   1931 
   1932                section *p;
   1933                for (p = abfd->sections; p != NULL; p = p->next)

   1943          void *obj);
   1944    *Description*
   1945 Call the provided function OPERATION for each section attached to the
   1946 BFD ABFD, passing OBJ as an argument. The function will be called as if
   1947 by
   1948 
   1949             operation (abfd, the_section, obj);
   1950 
   1951    It returns the first section for which OPERATION returns true.

   1957      bfd_boolean bfd_set_section_size
   1958         (bfd *abfd, asection *sec, bfd_size_type val);
   1959    *Description*
   1960 Set SEC to the size VAL. If the operation is ok, then `TRUE' is
   1961 returned, else `FALSE'.
   1962 
   1963    Possible error returns:
   1964    * `bfd_error_invalid_operation' - Writing has started to the BFD, so
   1965      setting the size is invalid.

   1974    *Description*
   1975 Sets the contents of the section SECTION in BFD ABFD to the data
   1976 starting in memory at DATA. The data is written to the output section
   1977 starting at offset OFFSET for COUNT octets.
   1978 
   1979    Normally `TRUE' is returned, else `FALSE'. Possible error returns
   1980 are:
   1981    * `bfd_error_no_contents' - The output section does not have the
   1982      `SEC_HAS_CONTENTS' attribute, so nothing can be written to it.
   1983 
   1984    * and some more too
   1985    This routine is front end to the back end function

   1995    *Description*
   1996 Read data from SECTION in BFD ABFD into memory starting at LOCATION.
   1997 The data is read at an offset of OFFSET from the start of the input
   1998 section, and is read for COUNT bytes.
   1999 
   2000    If the contents of a constructor with the `SEC_CONSTRUCTOR' flag set
   2001 are requested or if the section does not have the `SEC_HAS_CONTENTS'
   2002 flag set, then the LOCATION is filled with zeroes. If no errors occur,
   2003 `TRUE' is returned, else `FALSE'.

   2052 2.7 Symbols
   2053 ===========
   2054 
   2055 BFD tries to maintain as much symbol information as it can when it
   2056 moves information from file to file. BFD passes information to
   2057 applications though the `asymbol' structure. When the application
   2058 requests the symbol table, BFD reads the table in the native form and
   2059 translates parts of it into the internal format. To maintain more than
   2060 the information passed to applications, some targets keep some
   2061 information "behind the scenes" in a structure only the particular back
   2062 end knows about. For example, the coff back end keeps the original
   2063 symbol table structure as well as the canonical structure when a BFD is
   2064 read in. On output, the coff back end can reconstruct the output symbol
   2065 table so that no information is lost, even information unique to coff
   2066 which BFD doesn't know or understand. If a coff symbol table were read,
   2067 but were written through an a.out back end, all the coff specific
   2068 information would be lost. The symbol table of a BFD is not necessarily
   2069 read in until a canonicalize request is made. Then the BFD back end
   2070 fills in a table provided by the application with pointers to the
   2071 canonical information.  To output symbols, the application provides BFD
   2072 with a table of pointers to pointers to `asymbol's. This allows
   2073 applications like the linker to output a symbol as it was read, since
   2074 the "behind the scenes" information will be still available.

   2087 2.7.1 Reading symbols
   2088 ---------------------
   2089 
   2090 There are two stages to reading a symbol table from a BFD: allocating
   2091 storage, and the actual reading process. This is an excerpt from an
   2092 application which reads the symbol table:
   2093 
   2094               long storage_needed;
   2095               asymbol **symbol_table;
   2096               long number_of_symbols;
   2097               long i;
   2098 
   2099               storage_needed = bfd_get_symtab_upper_bound (abfd);
   2100 
   2101               if (storage_needed < 0)
   2102                 FAIL
   2103 
   2104               if (storage_needed == 0)
   2105                 return;
   2106 
   2107               symbol_table = xmalloc (storage_needed);
   2108                 ...
   2109               number_of_symbols =
   2110                  bfd_canonicalize_symtab (abfd, symbol_table);
   2111 
   2112               if (number_of_symbols < 0)
   2113                 FAIL
   2114 
   2115               for (i = 0; i < number_of_symbols; i++)
   2116                 process_symbol (symbol_table[i]);
   2117 
   2118    All storage for the symbols themselves is in an objalloc connected
   2119 to the BFD; it is freed when the BFD is closed.

   2124 2.7.2 Writing symbols
   2125 ---------------------
   2126 
   2127 Writing of a symbol table is automatic when a BFD open for writing is
   2128 closed. The application attaches a vector of pointers to pointers to
   2129 symbols to the BFD being written, and fills in the symbol count. The
   2130 close and cleanup code reads through the table provided and performs
   2131 all the necessary operations. The BFD output code must always be
   2132 provided with an "owned" symbol: one which has come from another BFD,
   2133 or one which has been created using `bfd_make_empty_symbol'.  Here is an
   2134 example showing the creation of a symbol table with only one element:
   2135 
   2136             #include "bfd.h"
   2137             int main (void)
   2138             {
   2139               bfd *abfd;
   2140               asymbol *ptrs[2];
   2141               asymbol *new;
   2142 
   2143               abfd = bfd_openw ("foo","a.out-sunos-big");
   2144               bfd_set_format (abfd, bfd_object);
   2145               new = bfd_make_empty_symbol (abfd);
   2146               new->name = "dummy_symbol";
   2147               new->section = bfd_make_section_old_way (abfd, ".text");
   2148               new->flags = BSF_GLOBAL;
   2149               new->value = 0x12345;
   2150 
   2151               ptrs[0] = new;
   2152               ptrs[1] = 0;
   2153 
   2154               bfd_set_symtab (abfd, ptrs, 1);
   2155               bfd_close (abfd);
   2156               return 0;
   2157             }
   2158 
   2159             ./makesym
   2160             nm foo
   2161             00012345 A dummy_symbol
   2162 
   2163    Many formats cannot represent arbitrary symbol information; for
   2164 instance, the `a.out' object format does not allow an arbitrary number
   2165 of sections. A symbol pointing to a section which is not one  of
   2166 `.text', `.data' or `.bss' cannot be described.

   2171 2.7.3 Mini Symbols
   2172 ------------------
   2173 
   2174 Mini symbols provide read-only access to the symbol table.  They use
   2175 less memory space, but require more time to access.  They can be useful
   2176 for tools like nm or objdump, which may have to handle symbol tables of
   2177 extremely large executables.
   2178 
   2179    The `bfd_read_minisymbols' function will read the symbols into
   2180 memory in an internal form.  It will return a `void *' pointer to a
   2181 block of memory, a symbol count, and the size of each symbol.  The
   2182 pointer is allocated using `malloc', and should be freed by the caller
   2183 when it is no longer needed.
   2184 
   2185    The function `bfd_minisymbol_to_symbol' will take a pointer to a
   2186 minisymbol, and a pointer to a structure returned by
   2187 `bfd_make_empty_symbol', and return a `asymbol' structure.  The return
   2188 value may or may not be the same as the value from
   2189 `bfd_make_empty_symbol' which was passed in.

   2205           with the symbol.
   2206 
   2207           This field is *almost* redundant, since you can use section->owner
   2208           instead, except that some symbols point to the global sections
   2209           bfd_{abs,com,und}_section.  This could be fixed by making

   2408 
   2409    This routine is necessary because each back end has private
   2410 information surrounding the `asymbol'. Building your own `asymbol' and
   2411 pointing to it will not create the private information, and will cause
   2412 problems later on.

   2486 2.8 Archives
   2487 ============
   2488 
   2489 *Description*
   2490 An archive (or library) is just another BFD.  It has a symbol table,
   2491 although there's not much a user program will do with it.
   2492 
   2493    The big difference between an archive BFD and an ordinary BFD is
   2494 that the archive doesn't have sections.  Instead it has a chain of BFDs
   2495 that are considered its contents.  These BFDs can be manipulated like
   2496 any other.  The BFDs contained in an archive opened for reading will
   2497 all be opened for reading.  You may put either input or output BFDs
   2498 into an archive opened for output; they will be handled correctly when
   2499 the archive is closed.
   2500 
   2501    Use `bfd_openr_next_archived_file' to step through the contents of
   2502 an archive opened for input.  You don't have to read the entire archive
   2503 if you don't want to!  Read it until you find what you want.
   2504 
   2505    Archive contents of output BFDs are chained through the `next'
   2506 pointer in a BFD.  The first one is findable through the `archive_head'
   2507 slot of the archive.  Set it with `bfd_set_archive_head' (q.v.).  A
   2508 given BFD may be in only one open output archive at a time.
   2509 
   2510    As expected, the BFD archive code is more general than the archive
   2511 code of any given environment.  BFD archives may contain files of
   2512 different formats (e.g., a.out and coff) and even different
   2513 architectures.  You may even place archives recursively into archives!
   2514 
   2515    This can cause unexpected confusion, since some archive formats are
   2516 more expressive than others.  For instance, Intel COFF archives can
   2517 preserve long filenames; SunOS a.out archives cannot.  If you move a
   2518 file from the first to the second format and back again, the filename
   2519 may be truncated.  Likewise, different a.out environments have different
   2520 conventions as to how they truncate filenames, whether they preserve
   2521 directory names in filenames, etc.  When interoperating with native
   2522 tools, be sure your files are homogeneous.
   2523 
   2524    Beware: most of these formats do not react well to the presence of
   2525 spaces in filenames.  We do the best we can, but can't always handle
   2526 this case due to restrictions in the format of archives.  Many Unix
   2527 utilities are braindead in regards to spaces and such in filenames
   2528 anyway, so this shouldn't be much of a restriction.
   2529 
   2530    Archives are supported in BFD in `archive.c'.

   2542 Step through archive ABFD's symbol table (if it has one).  Successively
   2543 update SYM with the next symbol's information, returning that symbol's
   2544 (internal) index into the symbol table.
   2545 
   2546    Supply `BFD_NO_MORE_SYMBOLS' as the PREVIOUS entry to get the first
   2547 one; returns `BFD_NO_MORE_SYMBOLS' when you've already got the last one.
   2548 
   2549    A `carsym' is a canonical archive symbol.  The only user-visible
   2550 element is its name, a null-terminated string.

   2568 BFD on the first contained element and returns that.  Subsequent calls
   2569 should pass the archive and the previous return value to return a
   2570 created BFD to the next contained element. NULL is returned when there
   2571 are no more.

   2576 2.9 File formats
   2577 ================
   2578 
   2579 A format is a BFD concept of high level file contents type. The formats
   2580 supported by BFD are:
   2581 
   2582    * `bfd_object'
   2583    The BFD may contain data, symbols, relocations and debug info.
   2584 
   2585    * `bfd_archive'
   2586    The BFD contains other BFDs and an optional index.
   2587 
   2588    * `bfd_core'
   2589    The BFD contains the result of an executable core dump.
   2590 
   2591 2.9.1 File format functions
   2592 ---------------------------
   2593 
   2594 2.9.1.1 `bfd_check_format'
   2595 ..........................
   2596 
   2597 *Synopsis*
   2598      bfd_boolean bfd_check_format (bfd *abfd, bfd_format format);
   2599    *Description*
   2600 Verify if the file attached to the BFD ABFD is compatible with the
   2601 format FORMAT (i.e., one of `bfd_object', `bfd_archive' or `bfd_core').
   2602 
   2603    If the BFD has been set to a specific target before the call, only
   2604 the named target and format combination is checked. If the target has
   2605 not been set, or has been set to `default', then all the known target
   2606 backends is interrogated to determine a match.  If the default target
   2607 matches, it is used.  If not, exactly one target must recognize the
   2608 file, or an error results.
   2609 
   2610    The function returns `TRUE' on success, otherwise `FALSE' with one
   2611 of the following error codes:
   2612 
   2613    * `bfd_error_invalid_operation' - if `format' is not one of
   2614      `bfd_object', `bfd_archive' or `bfd_core'.
   2615 
   2616    * `bfd_error_system_call' - if an error occured during a read - even
   2617      some file mismatches can cause bfd_error_system_calls.
   2618 
   2619    * `file_not_recognised' - none of the backends recognised the file
   2620      format.
   2621 
   2622    * `bfd_error_file_ambiguously_recognized' - more than one backend
   2623      recognised the file format.
   2624 
   2625 2.9.1.2 `bfd_check_format_matches'
   2626 ..................................

   2629      bfd_boolean bfd_check_format_matches
   2630         (bfd *abfd, bfd_format format, char ***matching);
   2631    *Description*
   2632 Like `bfd_check_format', except when it returns FALSE with `bfd_errno'
   2633 set to `bfd_error_file_ambiguously_recognized'.  In that case, if
   2634 MATCHING is not NULL, it will be filled in with a NULL-terminated list
   2635 of the names of the formats that matched, allocated with `malloc'.
   2636 Then the user may choose a format and try again.
   2637 
   2638    When done with the list that MATCHING points to, the caller should
   2639 free it.
   2640 
   2641 2.9.1.3 `bfd_set_format'
   2642 ........................
   2643 
   2644 *Synopsis*
   2645      bfd_boolean bfd_set_format (bfd *abfd, bfd_format format);
   2646    *Description*
   2647 This function sets the file format of the BFD ABFD to the format
   2648 FORMAT. If the target set in the BFD does not support the format
   2649 requested, the format is invalid, or the BFD is not open for writing,
   2650 then an error occurs.
   2651 
   2652 2.9.1.4 `bfd_format_string'
   2653 ...........................
   2654 
   2655 *Synopsis*
   2656      const char *bfd_format_string (bfd_format format);
   2657    *Description*
   2658 Return a pointer to a const string `invalid', `object', `archive',
   2659 `core', or `unknown', depending upon the value of FORMAT.

   2664 2.10 Relocations
   2665 ================
   2666 
   2667 BFD maintains relocations in much the same way it maintains symbols:
   2668 they are left alone until required, then read in en-masse and
   2669 translated into an internal form.  A common routine
   2670 `bfd_perform_relocation' acts upon the canonical form to do the fixup.
   2671 
   2672    Relocations are maintained on a per section basis, while symbols are
   2673 maintained on a per BFD basis.
   2674 
   2675    All that a back end has to do to fit the BFD interface is to create
   2676 a `struct reloc_cache_entry' for each relocation in a particular
   2677 section, and fill in the right bits of the structures.

   2738 
   2739      }
   2740      arelent;
   2741    *Description*
   2742 Here is a description of each of the fields within an `arelent':
   2743 
   2744    * `sym_ptr_ptr'
   2745    The symbol table pointer points to a pointer to the symbol
   2746 associated with the relocation request.  It is the pointer into the
   2747 table returned by the back end's `canonicalize_symtab' action. *Note
   2748 Symbols::. The symbol is referenced through a pointer to a pointer so
   2749 that tools like the linker can fix up all the symbols of the same name
   2750 by modifying only one pointer. The relocation routine looks in the
   2751 symbol and uses the base of the section the symbol is attached to and
   2752 the value of the symbol as the initial relocation offset. If the symbol
   2753 pointer is zero, then the section provided is looked up.
   2754 
   2755    * `address'
   2756    The `address' field gives the offset in bytes from the base of the
   2757 section data which owns the relocation record to the first byte of
   2758 relocatable information. The actual data relocated will be relative to
   2759 this point; for example, a relocation type which modifies the bottom
   2760 two bytes of a four byte word would not touch the first byte pointed to
   2761 in a big endian world.
   2762 
   2763    * `addend'
   2764    The `addend' is a value provided by the back end to be added (!)  to
   2765 the relocation offset. Its interpretation is dependent upon the howto.
   2766 For example, on the 68k the code:
   2767 
   2768              char foo[];
   2769              main()
   2770                      {
   2771                      return foo[0x12345678];
   2772                      }
   2773 
   2774    Could be compiled into:
   2775 
   2776              linkw fp,#-4
   2777              moveb @#12345678,d0
   2778              extbl d0
   2779              unlk fp
   2780              rts
   2781 
   2782    This could create a reloc pointing to `foo', but leave the offset in
   2783 the data, something like:
   2784 
   2785      RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.text]:
   2786      offset   type      value
   2787      00000006 32        _foo
   2788 
   2789      00000000 4e56 fffc          ; linkw fp,#-4
   2790      00000004 1039 1234 5678     ; moveb @#12345678,d0
   2791      0000000a 49c0               ; extbl d0
   2792      0000000c 4e5e               ; unlk fp
   2793      0000000e 4e75               ; rts
   2794 
   2795    Using coff and an 88k, some instructions don't have enough space in
   2796 them to represent the full address range, and pointers have to be
   2797 loaded in two parts. So you'd get something like:
   2798 
   2799              or.u     r13,r0,hi16(_foo+0x12345678)
   2800              ld.b     r2,r13,lo16(_foo+0x12345678)
   2801              jmp      r1
   2802 
   2803    This should create two relocs, both pointing to `_foo', and with
   2804 0x12340000 in their addend field. The data would consist of:
   2805 
   2806      RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.text]:
   2807      offset   type      value
   2808      00000002 HVRT16    _foo+0x12340000
   2809      00000006 LVRT16    _foo+0x12340000
   2810 
   2811      00000000 5da05678           ; or.u r13,r0,0x5678
   2812      00000004 1c4d5678           ; ld.b r2,r13,0x5678
   2813      00000008 f400c001           ; jmp r1
   2814 
   2815    The relocation routine digs out the value from the data, adds it to
   2816 the addend to get the original offset, and then adds the value of
   2817 `_foo'. Note that all 32 bits have to be kept around somewhere, to cope
   2818 with carry from bit 15 to bit 16.
   2819 
   2820    One further example is the sparc and the a.out format. The sparc has
   2821 a similar problem to the 88k, in that some instructions don't have room
   2822 for an entire offset, but on the sparc the parts are created in odd
   2823 sized lumps. The designers of the a.out format chose to not use the
   2824 data within the section for storing part of the offset; all the offset
   2825 is kept within the reloc. Anything in the data should be ignored.
   2826 
   2827              save %sp,-112,%sp
   2828              sethi %hi(_foo+0x12345678),%g2
   2829              ldsb [%g2+%lo(_foo+0x12345678)],%i0
   2830              ret
   2831              restore
   2832 
   2833    Both relocs contain a pointer to `foo', and the offsets contain junk.
   2834 
   2835      RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.text]:
   2836      offset   type      value
   2837      00000004 HI22      _foo+0x12345678
   2838      00000008 LO10      _foo+0x12345678
   2839 
   2840      00000000 9de3bf90     ; save %sp,-112,%sp
   2841      00000004 05000000     ; sethi %hi(_foo+0),%g2
   2842      00000008 f048a000     ; ldsb [%g2+%lo(_foo+0)],%i0
   2843      0000000c 81c7e008     ; ret
   2844      00000010 81e80000     ; restore
   2845 
   2846    * `howto'
   2847    The `howto' field can be imagined as a relocation instruction. It is
   2848 a pointer to a structure which contains information on what to do with
   2849 all of the other information in the reloc record and data section. A
   2850 back end would normally have a relocation instruction set and turn
   2851 relocations into pointers to the correct structure on input - but it
   2852 would be possible to create each howto field on demand.

   3063 If OUTPUT_BFD is supplied to this function, the generated image will be
   3064 relocatable; the relocations are copied to the output file after they
   3065 have been changed to reflect the new state of the world. There are two
   3066 ways of reflecting the results of partial linkage in an output file: by
   3067 modifying the output data in place, and by modifying the relocation
   3068 record.  Some native formats (e.g., basic a.out and basic coff) have no
   3069 way of specifying an addend in the relocation type, so the addend has
   3070 to go in the output data.  This is no big deal since in these formats
   3071 the output data slot will always be big enough for the addend. Complex
   3072 reloc types with addends were invented to solve just this problem.  The
   3073 ERROR_MESSAGE argument is set to an error message if this return
   3074 `bfd_reloc_dangerous'.

   3098 ------------------------
   3099 
   3100 When an application wants to create a relocation, but doesn't know what
   3101 the target machine might call it, it can find out by using this bit of
   3102 code.

   3107 *Description*
   3108 The insides of a reloc code.  The idea is that, eventually, there will
   3109 be one enumerator for every type of relocation we ever do.  Pass one of
   3110 these values to `bfd_reloc_type_lookup', and it'll return a howto
   3111 pointer.
   3112 
   3113    This does mean that the application must determine the correct
   3114 enumerator value; you can't get a howto pointer from a random set of
   3115 attributes.

   3188      i.e., byte displacements shifted right two bits.  The 30-bit word
   3189      displacement (<<32_PCREL_S2>> - 32 bits, shifted 2) is used on the
   3190      SPARC.  (SPARC tools generally refer to this as <<WDISP30>>.)  The

   3303      Alpha ECOFF and ELF relocations.  Some of these treat the symbol or
   3304      "addend" in some special way.  For GPDISP_HI16 ("gpdisp")
   3305      relocations, the symbol is ignored when writing; when reading, it
   3306      will be the absolute section symbol.  The addend is the
   3307      displacement in bytes of the "lda" instruction from the "ldah"
   3308      instruction (which is at the address of this reloc).
   3309 
   3310  -- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_GPDISP_LO16
   3311      For GPDISP_LO16 ("ignore") relocations, the symbol is handled as
   3312      with GPDISP_HI16 relocs.  The addend is ignored when writing the
   3313      relocations out, and is filled in with the file's GP value on
   3314      reading, for convenience.
   3315 
   3316  -- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_GPDISP
   3317      The ELF GPDISP relocation is exactly the same as the GPDISP_HI16
   3318      relocation except that there is no accompanying GPDISP_LO16
   3319      relocation.

   3323  -- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_LITUSE
   3324      The Alpha LITERAL/LITUSE relocs are produced by a symbol reference;
   3325      the assembler turns it into a LDQ instruction to load the address
   3326      of the symbol, and then fills in a register in the real
   3327      instruction.
   3328 
   3329      The LITERAL reloc, at the LDQ instruction, refers to the .lita
   3330      section symbol.  The addend is ignored when writing, but is filled
   3331      in with the file's GP value on reading, for convenience, as with
   3332      the GPDISP_LO16 reloc.
   3333 
   3334      The ELF_LITERAL reloc is somewhere between 16_GOTOFF and
   3335      GPDISP_LO16.  It should refer to the symbol to be referenced, as
   3336      with 16_GOTOFF, but it generates output not based on the position
   3337      within the .got section, but relative to the GP value chosen for
   3338      the file during the final link stage.
   3339 
   3340      The LITUSE reloc, on the instruction using the loaded address,
   3341      gives information to the linker that it might be able to use to
   3342      optimize away some literal section references.  The symbol is
   3343      ignored (read as the absolute section symbol), and the "addend"
   3344      indicates the type of instruction using the register: 1 - "memory"
   3345      fmt insn 2 - byte-manipulation (byte offset reg) 3 - jsr (target
   3346      of branch)
   3347 
   3348  -- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_HINT
   3349      The HINT relocation indicates a value that should be filled into
   3350      the "hint" field of a jmp/jsr/ret instruction, for possible branch-
   3351      prediction logic which may be provided on some processors.
   3352 
   3353  -- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_LINKAGE
   3354      The LINKAGE relocation outputs a linkage pair in the object file,
   3355      which is filled by the linker.
   3356 
   3357  -- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_CODEADDR
   3358      The CODEADDR relocation outputs a STO_CA in the object file, which
   3359      is filled by the linker.

   4673      These two relocations are used by the linker to determine which of
   4674      the entries in a C++ virtual function table are actually used.
   4675      When the -gc-sections option is given, the linker will zero out
   4676      the entries that are not used, so that the code for those
   4677      functions need not be included in the output.
   4678 
   4679      VTABLE_INHERIT is a zero-space relocation used to describe to the
   4680      linker the inheritance tree of a C++ virtual function table.  The
   4681      relocation's symbol should be the parent class' vtable, and the
   4682      relocation should be located at the child vtable.
   4683 
   4684      VTABLE_ENTRY is a zero-space relocation that describes the use of a
   4685      virtual function table entry.  The reloc's symbol should refer to
   4686      the table of the class mentioned in the code.  Off of that base,
   4687      an offset describes the entry that is being used.  For Rela hosts,
   4688      this offset is stored in the reloc's addend.  For Rel hosts, we
   4689      are forced to put this offset in the reloc's section offset.

   5227      bfd_boolean generic_core_file_matches_executable_p
   5228         (bfd *core_bfd, bfd *exec_bfd);
   5229    *Description*
   5230 Return TRUE if the core file attached to CORE_BFD was generated by a
   5231 run of the executable file attached to EXEC_BFD.  The match is based on
   5232 executable basenames only.
   5233 
   5234    Note: When not able to determine the core file failing command or
   5235 the executable name, we still return TRUE even though we're not sure
   5236 that core file and executable match.  This is to avoid generating a
   5237 false warning in situations where we really don't know whether they
   5238 match or not.

   5245 
   5246 *Description*
   5247 Each port of BFD to a different machine requires the creation of a
   5248 target back end. All the back end provides to the root part of BFD is a
   5249 structure containing pointers to functions which perform certain low
   5250 level operations on files. BFD translates the applications's requests
   5251 through a pointer into calls to the back end routines.
   5252 
   5253    When a file is opened with `bfd_openr', its format and target are
   5254 unknown. BFD uses various mechanisms to determine how to interpret the
   5255 file. The operations performed are:
   5256 
   5257    * Create a BFD by calling the internal routine `_bfd_new_bfd', then
   5258      call `bfd_find_target' with the target string supplied to
   5259      `bfd_openr' and the new BFD pointer.
   5260 
   5261    * If a null target string was provided to `bfd_find_target', look up
   5262      the environment variable `GNUTARGET' and use that as the target
   5263      string.
   5264 
   5265    * If the target string is still `NULL', or the target string is
   5266      `default', then use the first item in the target vector as the
   5267      target type, and set `target_defaulted' in the BFD to cause
   5268      `bfd_check_format' to loop through all the targets.  *Note
   5269      bfd_target::.  *Note Formats::.
   5270 
   5271    * Otherwise, inspect the elements in the target vector one by one,
   5272      until a match on target name is found. When found, use it.
   5273 
   5274    * Otherwise return the error `bfd_error_invalid_target' to
   5275      `bfd_openr'.
   5276 
   5277    * `bfd_openr' attempts to open the file using `bfd_open_file', and
   5278      returns the BFD.
   5279    Once the BFD has been opened and the target selected, the file
   5280 format may be determined. This is done by calling `bfd_check_format' on
   5281 the BFD with a suggested format.  If `target_defaulted' has been set,
   5282 each possible target type is tried to see if it recognizes the
   5283 specified format.  `bfd_check_format' returns `TRUE' when the caller
   5284 guesses right.

   5293 2.12.1 bfd_target
   5294 -----------------
   5295 
   5296 *Description*
   5297 This structure contains everything that BFD knows about a target. It
   5298 includes things like its byte order, name, and which routines to call
   5299 to do various operations.
   5300 
   5301    Every BFD points to a target structure with its `xvec' member.
   5302 
   5303    The macros below are used to dispatch to functions through the
   5304 `bfd_target' vector. They are used in a number of macros further down
   5305 in `bfd.h', and are also used when calling various routines by hand
   5306 inside the BFD implementation.  The ARGLIST argument must be
   5307 parenthesized; it contains all the arguments to the called function.
   5308 
   5309    They make the documentation (more) unpleasant to read, so if someone
   5310 wants to fix this and not break the above, please do.
   5311      #define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
   5312        ((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist)
   5313 
   5314      #ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
   5315      #undef BFD_SEND
   5316      #define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
   5317        (((bfd) && (bfd)->xvec && (bfd)->xvec->message) ? \
   5318          ((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist) : \
   5319          (bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
   5320      #endif
   5321    For operations which index on the BFD format:
   5322      #define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
   5323        (((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist)
   5324 
   5325      #ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
   5326      #undef BFD_SEND_FMT
   5327      #define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
   5328        (((bfd) && (bfd)->xvec && (bfd)->xvec->message) ? \
   5329         (((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist) : \
   5330         (bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
   5331      #endif
   5332    This is the structure which defines the type of BFD this is.  The
   5333 `xvec' member of the struct `bfd' itself points here.  Each module that
   5334 implements access to a different target under BFD, defines one of these.
   5335 
   5336    FIXME, these names should be rationalised with the names of the
   5337 entry points which call them. Too bad we can't have one macro to define
   5338 them both!

   5731 Return a pointer to the transfer vector for the object target named
   5732 TARGET_NAME.  If TARGET_NAME is `NULL', choose the one in the
   5733 environment variable `GNUTARGET'; if that is null or not defined, then
   5734 choose the first entry in the target list.  Passing in the string
   5735 "default" or setting the environment variable to "default" will cause
   5736 the first entry in the target list to be returned, and
   5737 "target_defaulted" will be set in the BFD if ABFD isn't `NULL'.  This
   5738 causes `bfd_check_format' to loop over all the targets to find the one
   5739 that matches the file being read.

   5766 2.13 Architectures
   5767 ==================
   5768 
   5769 BFD keeps one atom in a BFD describing the architecture of the data
   5770 attached to the BFD: a pointer to a `bfd_arch_info_type'.
   5771 
   5772    Pointers to structures can be requested independently of a BFD so
   5773 that an architecture's information can be interrogated without access
   5774 to an open BFD.
   5775 
   5776    The architecture information is provided by each architecture
   5777 package.  The set of default architectures is selected by the macro
   5778 `SELECT_ARCHITECTURES'.  This is normally set up in the
   5779 `config/TARGET.mt' file of your choice.  If the name is not defined,
   5780 then all the architectures supported are included.
   5781 
   5782    When BFD starts up, all the architectures are called with an
   5783 initialize method.  It is up to the architecture back end to insert as
   5784 many items into the list of architectures as it wants to; generally
   5785 this would be one for each machine and one for the default case (an
   5786 item with a machine field of 0).
   5787 
   5788    BFD's idea of an architecture is implemented in `archures.c'.

   5796 indicates which processor within the family is in use.  The machine
   5797 gives a number which distinguishes different versions of the
   5798 architecture, containing, for example, 2 and 3 for Intel i960 KA and

   6329 =============================
   6330 
   6331 2.14.1 Functions for opening and closing
   6332 ----------------------------------------
   6333 
   6334 2.14.1.1 `bfd_fopen'
   6335 ....................
   6336 
   6337 *Synopsis*
   6338      bfd *bfd_fopen (const char *filename, const char *target,
   6339          const char *mode, int fd);
   6340    *Description*
   6341 Open the file FILENAME with the target TARGET.  Return a pointer to the
   6342 created BFD.  If FD is not -1, then `fdopen' is used to open the file;
   6343 otherwise, `fopen' is used.  MODE is passed directly to `fopen' or
   6344 `fdopen'.
   6345 
   6346    Calls `bfd_find_target', so TARGET is interpreted as by that
   6347 function.
   6348 
   6349    The new BFD is marked as cacheable iff FD is -1.
   6350 
   6351    If `NULL' is returned then an error has occured.   Possible errors
   6352 are `bfd_error_no_memory', `bfd_error_invalid_target' or `system_call'
   6353 error.
   6354 
   6355 2.14.1.2 `bfd_openr'
   6356 ....................
   6357 
   6358 *Synopsis*
   6359      bfd *bfd_openr (const char *filename, const char *target);
   6360    *Description*
   6361 Open the file FILENAME (using `fopen') with the target TARGET.  Return
   6362 a pointer to the created BFD.
   6363 
   6364    Calls `bfd_find_target', so TARGET is interpreted as by that
   6365 function.
   6366 
   6367    If `NULL' is returned then an error has occured.   Possible errors
   6368 are `bfd_error_no_memory', `bfd_error_invalid_target' or `system_call'
   6369 error.
   6370 
   6371 2.14.1.3 `bfd_fdopenr'
   6372 ......................
   6373 
   6374 *Synopsis*
   6375      bfd *bfd_fdopenr (const char *filename, const char *target, int fd);
   6376    *Description*
   6377 `bfd_fdopenr' is to `bfd_fopenr' much like `fdopen' is to `fopen'.  It
   6378 opens a BFD on a file already described by the FD supplied.
   6379 
   6380    When the file is later `bfd_close'd, the file descriptor will be
   6381 closed.  If the caller desires that this file descriptor be cached by
   6382 BFD (opened as needed, closed as needed to free descriptors for other
   6383 opens), with the supplied FD used as an initial file descriptor (but
   6384 subject to closure at any time), call bfd_set_cacheable(bfd, 1) on the
   6385 returned BFD.  The default is to assume no caching; the file descriptor
   6386 will remain open until `bfd_close', and will not be affected by BFD
   6387 operations on other files.
   6388 
   6389    Possible errors are `bfd_error_no_memory',
   6390 `bfd_error_invalid_target' and `bfd_error_system_call'.
   6391 
   6392 2.14.1.4 `bfd_openstreamr'
   6393 ..........................
   6394 
   6395 *Synopsis*
   6396      bfd *bfd_openstreamr (const char *, const char *, void *);
   6397    *Description*
   6398 Open a BFD for read access on an existing stdio stream.  When the BFD
   6399 is passed to `bfd_close', the stream will be closed.
   6400 
   6401 2.14.1.5 `bfd_openr_iovec'
   6402 ..........................
   6403 
   6404 *Synopsis*
   6405      bfd *bfd_openr_iovec (const char *filename, const char *target,
   6406          void *(*open) (struct bfd *nbfd,
   6407          void *open_closure),
   6408          void *open_closure,
   6409          file_ptr (*pread) (struct bfd *nbfd,
   6410          void *stream,

   6412          file_ptr nbytes,
   6413          file_ptr offset),
   6414          int (*close) (struct bfd *nbfd,
   6415          void *stream));
   6416    *Description*
   6417 Create and return a BFD backed by a read-only STREAM.  The STREAM is
   6418 created using OPEN, accessed using PREAD and destroyed using CLOSE.
   6419 
   6420    Calls `bfd_find_target', so TARGET is interpreted as by that
   6421 function.
   6422 
   6423    Calls OPEN (which can call `bfd_zalloc' and `bfd_get_filename') to
   6424 obtain the read-only stream backing the BFD.  OPEN either succeeds
   6425 returning the non-`NULL' STREAM, or fails returning `NULL' (setting
   6426 `bfd_error').
   6427 
   6428    Calls PREAD to request NBYTES of data from STREAM starting at OFFSET
   6429 (e.g., via a call to `bfd_read').  PREAD either succeeds returning the
   6430 number of bytes read (which can be less than NBYTES when end-of-file),
   6431 or fails returning -1 (setting `bfd_error').
   6432 
   6433    Calls CLOSE when the BFD is later closed using `bfd_close'.  CLOSE
   6434 either succeeds returning 0, or fails returning -1 (setting
   6435 `bfd_error').
   6436 
   6437    If `bfd_openr_iovec' returns `NULL' then an error has occurred.
   6438 Possible errors are `bfd_error_no_memory', `bfd_error_invalid_target'
   6439 and `bfd_error_system_call'.
   6440 
   6441 2.14.1.6 `bfd_openw'
   6442 ....................
   6443 
   6444 *Synopsis*
   6445      bfd *bfd_openw (const char *filename, const char *target);
   6446    *Description*
   6447 Create a BFD, associated with file FILENAME, using the file format
   6448 TARGET, and return a pointer to it.
   6449 
   6450    Possible errors are `bfd_error_system_call', `bfd_error_no_memory',

   6457      bfd_boolean bfd_close (bfd *abfd);
   6458    *Description*
   6459 Close a BFD. If the BFD was open for writing, then pending operations
   6460 are completed and the file written out and closed.  If the created file
   6461 is executable, then `chmod' is called to mark it as such.
   6462 
   6463    All memory attached to the BFD is released.
   6464 
   6465    The file descriptor associated with the BFD is closed (even if it
   6466 was passed in to BFD by `bfd_fdopenr').
   6467 
   6468    *Returns*
   6469 `TRUE' is returned if all is ok, otherwise `FALSE'.

   6475      bfd_boolean bfd_close_all_done (bfd *);
   6476    *Description*
   6477 Close a BFD.  Differs from `bfd_close' since it does not complete any
   6478 pending operations.  This routine would be used if the application had
   6479 just used BFD for swapping and didn't want to use any of the writing
   6480 code.
   6481 
   6482    If the created file is executable, then `chmod' is called to mark it
   6483 as such.
   6484 
   6485    All memory attached to the BFD is released.
   6486 
   6487    *Returns*

   6495    *Description*
   6496 Create a new BFD in the manner of `bfd_openw', but without opening a
   6497 file. The new BFD takes the target from the target used by TEMPLATE.
   6498 The format is always set to `bfd_object'.

   6504      bfd_boolean bfd_make_writable (bfd *abfd);
   6505    *Description*
   6506 Takes a BFD as created by `bfd_create' and converts it into one like as
   6507 returned by `bfd_openw'.  It does this by converting the BFD to
   6508 BFD_IN_MEMORY.  It's assumed that you will call `bfd_make_readable' on
   6509 this bfd later.
   6510 
   6511    *Returns*
   6512 `TRUE' is returned if all is ok, otherwise `FALSE'.

   6520 Takes a BFD as created by `bfd_create' and `bfd_make_writable' and
   6521 converts it into one like as returned by `bfd_openr'.  It does this by
   6522 writing the contents out to the memory buffer, then reversing the
   6523 direction.

   6614    *Description*
   6615 Takes a BFD and searches it for a .gnu_debuglink section.  If this
   6616 section is found, it examines the section for the name and checksum of
   6617 a '.debug' file containing auxiliary debugging information.  It then
   6618 searches the filesystem for this .debug file in some standard
   6619 locations, including the directory tree rooted at DIR, and if found
   6620 returns the full filename.
   6621 
   6622    If DIR is NULL, it will search a default path configured into libbfd
   6623 at build time.  [XXX this feature is not currently implemented].
   6624 
   6625    *Returns*
   6626 `NULL' on any errors or failure to locate the .debug file, otherwise a
   6627 pointer to a heap-allocated string containing the filename.  The caller
   6628 is responsible for freeing this string.

   6665 2.15.1 Internal functions
   6666 -------------------------
   6667

   6669 These routines are used within BFD.  They are not intended for export,
   6670 but are documented here for completeness.

   6675 *Synopsis*
   6676      bfd_boolean bfd_write_bigendian_4byte_int (bfd *, unsigned int);
   6677    *Description*
   6678 Write a 4 byte integer I to the output BFD ABFD, in big endian order
   6679 regardless of what else is going on.  This is useful in archives.

   6684 2.15.1.3 `bfd_get_size'
   6685 .......................
   6686 
   6687 *Description*
   6688 These macros as used for reading and writing raw data in sections; each
   6689 access (except for bytes) is vectored through the target format of the
   6690 BFD and mangled accordingly. The mangling performs any necessary endian
   6691 translations and removes alignment restrictions.  Note that types
   6692 accepted and returned by these macros are identical so they can be
   6693 swapped around in macros--for example, `libaout.h' defines `GET_WORD'
   6694 to either `bfd_get_32' or `bfd_get_64'.
   6695 
   6696    In the put routines, VAL must be a `bfd_vma'.  If we are on a system
   6697 without prototypes, the caller is responsible for making sure that is
   6698 true, with a cast if necessary.  We don't cast them in the macro
   6699 definitions because that would prevent `lint' or `gcc -Wall' from
   6700 detecting sins such as passing a pointer.  To detect calling these with
   6701 less than a `bfd_vma', use `gcc -Wconversion' on a host with 64 bit
   6702 `bfd_vma''s.

   6836 =================
   6837 
   6838 The file caching mechanism is embedded within BFD and allows the
   6839 application to open as many BFDs as it wants without regard to the
   6840 underlying operating system's file descriptor limit (often as low as 20
   6841 open files).  The module in `cache.c' maintains a least recently used
   6842 list of `BFD_CACHE_MAX_OPEN' files, and exports the name
   6843 `bfd_cache_lookup', which runs around and makes sure that the required
   6844 BFD is open. If not, then it chooses a file to close, closes it and
   6845 opens the one wanted, returning its file handle.

   6899 2.17 Linker Functions
   6900 =====================
   6901 
   6902 The linker uses three special entry points in the BFD target vector.
   6903 It is not necessary to write special routines for these entry points
   6904 when creating a new BFD back end, since generic versions are provided.
   6905 However, writing them can speed up linking and make it use
   6906 significantly less runtime memory.
   6907 
   6908    The first routine creates a hash table used by the other routines.
   6909 The second routine adds the symbols from an object file to the hash
   6910 table.  The third routine takes all the object files and links them
   6911 together to create the output file.  These routines are designed so
   6912 that the linker proper does not need to know anything about the symbols
   6913 in the object files that it is linking.  The linker merely arranges the
   6914 sections as directed by the linker script and lets BFD handle the
   6915 details of symbols and relocs.
   6916 
   6917    The second routine and third routines are passed a pointer to a
   6918 `struct bfd_link_info' structure (defined in `bfdlink.h') which holds
   6919 information relevant to the link, including the linker hash table
   6920 (which was created by the first routine) and a set of callback
   6921 functions to the linker proper.
   6922 
   6923    The generic linker routines are in `linker.c', and use the header
   6924 file `genlink.h'.  As of this writing, the only back ends which have
   6925 implemented versions of these routines are a.out (in `aoutx.h') and
   6926 ECOFF (in `ecoff.c').  The a.out routines are used as examples
   6927 throughout this section.

   6938 2.17.1 Creating a linker hash table
   6939 -----------------------------------
   6940 
   6941 The linker routines must create a hash table, which must be derived
   6942 from `struct bfd_link_hash_table' described in `bfdlink.c'.  *Note Hash
   6943 Tables::, for information on how to create a derived hash table.  This
   6944 entry point is called using the target vector of the linker output file.
   6945 
   6946    The `_bfd_link_hash_table_create' entry point must allocate and
   6947 initialize an instance of the desired hash table.  If the back end does
   6948 not require any additional information to be stored with the entries in
   6949 the hash table, the entry point may simply create a `struct
   6950 bfd_link_hash_table'.  Most likely, however, some additional
   6951 information will be needed.
   6952 
   6953    For example, with each entry in the hash table the a.out linker
   6954 keeps the index the symbol has in the final output file (this index
   6955 number is used so that when doing a relocatable link the symbol index
   6956 used in the output file can be quickly filled in when copying over a
   6957 reloc).  The a.out linker code defines the required structures and
   6958 functions for a hash table derived from `struct bfd_link_hash_table'.
   6959 The a.out linker hash table is created by the function
   6960 `NAME(aout,link_hash_table_create)'; it simply allocates space for the
   6961 hash table, initializes it, and returns a pointer to it.
   6962 
   6963    When writing the linker routines for a new back end, you will
   6964 generally not know exactly which fields will be required until you have
   6965 finished.  You should simply create a new hash table which defines no
   6966 additional fields, and then simply add fields as they become necessary.

   6971 2.17.2 Adding symbols to the hash table
   6972 ---------------------------------------
   6973 
   6974 The linker proper will call the `_bfd_link_add_symbols' entry point for
   6975 each object file or archive which is to be linked (typically these are
   6976 the files named on the command line, but some may also come from the
   6977 linker script).  The entry point is responsible for examining the file.
   6978 For an object file, BFD must add any relevant symbol information to
   6979 the hash table.  For an archive, BFD must determine which elements of
   6980 the archive should be used and adding them to the link.
   6981 
   6982    The a.out version of this entry point is
   6983 `NAME(aout,link_add_symbols)'.

   6994 2.17.2.1 Differing file formats
   6995 ...............................
   6996 
   6997 Normally all the files involved in a link will be of the same format,
   6998 but it is also possible to link together different format object files,
   6999 and the back end must support that.  The `_bfd_link_add_symbols' entry
   7000 point is called via the target vector of the file to be added.  This
   7001 has an important consequence: the function may not assume that the hash
   7002 table is the type created by the corresponding
   7003 `_bfd_link_hash_table_create' vector.  All the `_bfd_link_add_symbols'
   7004 function can assume about the hash table is that it is derived from
   7005 `struct bfd_link_hash_table'.
   7006 
   7007    Sometimes the `_bfd_link_add_symbols' function must store some
   7008 information in the hash table entry to be used by the `_bfd_final_link'
   7009 function.  In such a case the `creator' field of the hash table must be
   7010 checked to make sure that the hash table was created by an object file
   7011 of the same format.
   7012 
   7013    The `_bfd_final_link' routine must be prepared to handle a hash
   7014 entry without any extra information added by the
   7015 `_bfd_link_add_symbols' function.  A hash entry without extra
   7016 information will also occur when the linker script directs the linker
   7017 to create a symbol.  Note that, regardless of how a hash table entry is
   7018 added, all the fields will be initialized to some sort of null value by
   7019 the hash table entry initialization function.
   7020 
   7021    See `ecoff_link_add_externals' for an example of how to check the
   7022 `creator' field before saving information (in this case, the ECOFF
   7023 external symbol debugging information) in a hash table entry.

   7028 2.17.2.2 Adding symbols from an object file
   7029 ...........................................
   7030 
   7031 When the `_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine is passed an object file, it
   7032 must add all externally visible symbols in that object file to the hash
   7033 table.  The actual work of adding the symbol to the hash table is
   7034 normally handled by the function `_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol'.
   7035 The `_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine is responsible for reading all the
   7036 symbols from the object file and passing the correct information to
   7037 `_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol'.
   7038 
   7039    The `_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine should not use
   7040 `bfd_canonicalize_symtab' to read the symbols.  The point of providing
   7041 this routine is to avoid the overhead of converting the symbols into
   7042 generic `asymbol' structures.
   7043 
   7044    `_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol' handles the details of combining
   7045 common symbols, warning about multiple definitions, and so forth.  It
   7046 takes arguments which describe the symbol to add, notably symbol flags,
   7047 a section, and an offset.  The symbol flags include such things as
   7048 `BSF_WEAK' or `BSF_INDIRECT'.  The section is a section in the object
   7049 file, or something like `bfd_und_section_ptr' for an undefined symbol
   7050 or `bfd_com_section_ptr' for a common symbol.
   7051 
   7052    If the `_bfd_final_link' routine is also going to need to read the
   7053 symbol information, the `_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine should save it
   7054 somewhere attached to the object file BFD.  However, the information
   7055 should only be saved if the `keep_memory' field of the `info' argument
   7056 is TRUE, so that the `-no-keep-memory' linker switch is effective.
   7057 
   7058    The a.out function which adds symbols from an object file is
   7059 `aout_link_add_object_symbols', and most of the interesting work is in
   7060 `aout_link_add_symbols'.  The latter saves pointers to the hash tables
   7061 entries created by `_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol' indexed by symbol
   7062 number, so that the `_bfd_final_link' routine does not have to call the
   7063 hash table lookup routine to locate the entry.

   7068 2.17.2.3 Adding symbols from an archive
   7069 .......................................
   7070 
   7071 When the `_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine is passed an archive, it must
   7072 look through the symbols defined by the archive and decide which
   7073 elements of the archive should be included in the link.  For each such
   7074 element it must call the `add_archive_element' linker callback, and it
   7075 must add the symbols from the object file to the linker hash table.
   7076 
   7077    In most cases the work of looking through the symbols in the archive
   7078 should be done by the `_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols' function.
   7079 This function builds a hash table from the archive symbol table and
   7080 looks through the list of undefined symbols to see which elements
   7081 should be included.  `_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols' is passed
   7082 a function to call to make the final decision about adding an archive
   7083 element to the link and to do the actual work of adding the symbols to
   7084 the linker hash table.
   7085 
   7086    The function passed to `_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols' must
   7087 read the symbols of the archive element and decide whether the archive
   7088 element should be included in the link.  If the element is to be
   7089 included, the `add_archive_element' linker callback routine must be
   7090 called with the element as an argument, and the elements symbols must
   7091 be added to the linker hash table just as though the element had itself
   7092 been passed to the `_bfd_link_add_symbols' function.
   7093 
   7094    When the a.out `_bfd_link_add_symbols' function receives an archive,
   7095 it calls `_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols' passing
   7096 `aout_link_check_archive_element' as the function argument.
   7097 `aout_link_check_archive_element' calls `aout_link_check_ar_symbols'.
   7098 If the latter decides to add the element (an element is only added if
   7099 it provides a real, non-common, definition for a previously undefined
   7100 or common symbol) it calls the `add_archive_element' callback and then
   7101 `aout_link_check_archive_element' calls `aout_link_add_symbols' to
   7102 actually add the symbols to the linker hash table.
   7103 
   7104    The ECOFF back end is unusual in that it does not normally call
   7105 `_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols', because ECOFF archives already
   7106 contain a hash table of symbols.  The ECOFF back end searches the
   7107 archive itself to avoid the overhead of creating a new hash table.

   7112 2.17.3 Performing the final link
   7113 --------------------------------
   7114 
   7115 When all the input files have been processed, the linker calls the
   7116 `_bfd_final_link' entry point of the output BFD.  This routine is
   7117 responsible for producing the final output file, which has several
   7118 aspects.  It must relocate the contents of the input sections and copy
   7119 the data into the output sections.  It must build an output symbol
   7120 table including any local symbols from the input files and the global
   7121 symbols from the hash table.  When producing relocatable output, it must
   7122 modify the input relocs and write them into the output file.  There may
   7123 also be object format dependent work to be done.
   7124 
   7125    The linker will also call the `write_object_contents' entry point
   7126 when the BFD is closed.  The two entry points must work together in
   7127 order to produce the correct output file.
   7128 
   7129    The details of how this works are inevitably dependent upon the
   7130 specific object file format.  The a.out `_bfd_final_link' routine is
   7131 `NAME(aout,final_link)'.

   7143 ...........................................
   7144 
   7145 Before the linker calls the `_bfd_final_link' entry point, it sets up
   7146 some data structures for the function to use.
   7147 
   7148    The `input_bfds' field of the `bfd_link_info' structure will point
   7149 to a list of all the input files included in the link.  These files are
   7150 linked through the `link_next' field of the `bfd' structure.
   7151 
   7152    Each section in the output file will have a list of `link_order'
   7153 structures attached to the `map_head.link_order' field (the
   7154 `link_order' structure is defined in `bfdlink.h').  These structures
   7155 describe how to create the contents of the output section in terms of
   7156 the contents of various input sections, fill constants, and,
   7157 eventually, other types of information.  They also describe relocs that
   7158 must be created by the BFD backend, but do not correspond to any input
   7159 file; this is used to support -Ur, which builds constructors while
   7160 generating a relocatable object file.

   7166 ........................................
   7167 
   7168 The `_bfd_final_link' function should look through the `link_order'
   7169 structures attached to each section of the output file.  Each
   7170 `link_order' structure should either be handled specially, or it should
   7171 be passed to the function `_bfd_default_link_order' which will do the
   7172 right thing (`_bfd_default_link_order' is defined in `linker.c').
   7173 
   7174    For efficiency, a `link_order' of type `bfd_indirect_link_order'
   7175 whose associated section belongs to a BFD of the same format as the
   7176 output BFD must be handled specially.  This type of `link_order'
   7177 describes part of an output section in terms of a section belonging to
   7178 one of the input files.  The `_bfd_final_link' function should read the
   7179 contents of the section and any associated relocs, apply the relocs to
   7180 the section contents, and write out the modified section contents.  If
   7181 performing a relocatable link, the relocs themselves must also be
   7182 modified and written out.
   7183 
   7184    The functions `_bfd_relocate_contents' and
   7185 `_bfd_final_link_relocate' provide some general support for performing
   7186 the actual relocations, notably overflow checking.  Their arguments
   7187 include information about the symbol the relocation is against and a
   7188 `reloc_howto_type' argument which describes the relocation to perform.
   7189 These functions are defined in `reloc.c'.
   7190 
   7191    The a.out function which handles reading, relocating, and writing
   7192 section contents is `aout_link_input_section'.  The actual relocation
   7193 is done in `aout_link_input_section_std' and
   7194 `aout_link_input_section_ext'.

   7200 .................................
   7201 
   7202 The `_bfd_final_link' function must gather all the symbols in the input
   7203 files and write them out.  It must also write out all the symbols in
   7204 the global hash table.  This must be controlled by the `strip' and
   7205 `discard' fields of the `bfd_link_info' structure.
   7206 
   7207    The local symbols of the input files will not have been entered into
   7208 the linker hash table.  The `_bfd_final_link' routine must consider
   7209 each input file and include the symbols in the output file.  It may be
   7210 convenient to do this when looking through the `link_order' structures,
   7211 or it may be done by stepping through the `input_bfds' list.
   7212 
   7213    The `_bfd_final_link' routine must also traverse the global hash
   7214 table to gather all the externally visible symbols.  It is possible
   7215 that most of the externally visible symbols may be written out when
   7216 considering the symbols of each input file, but it is still necessary
   7217 to traverse the hash table since the linker script may have defined
   7218 some symbols that are not in any of the input files.
   7219 
   7220    The `strip' field of the `bfd_link_info' structure controls which
   7221 symbols are written out.  The possible values are listed in
   7222 `bfdlink.h'.  If the value is `strip_some', then the `keep_hash' field
   7223 of the `bfd_link_info' structure is a hash table of symbols to keep;
   7224 each symbol should be looked up in this hash table, and only symbols
   7225 which are present should be included in the output file.
   7226 
   7227    If the `strip' field of the `bfd_link_info' structure permits local
   7228 symbols to be written out, the `discard' field is used to further
   7229 controls which local symbols are included in the output file.  If the
   7230 value is `discard_l', then all local symbols which begin with a certain
   7231 prefix are discarded; this is controlled by the
   7232 `bfd_is_local_label_name' entry point.
   7233 
   7234    The a.out backend handles symbols by calling
   7235 `aout_link_write_symbols' on each input BFD and then traversing the
   7236 global hash table with the function `aout_link_write_other_symbol'.  It
   7237 builds a string table while writing out the symbols, which is written
   7238 to the output file at the end of `NAME(aout,final_link)'.

   7266 2.18 Hash Tables
   7267 ================
   7268 
   7269 BFD provides a simple set of hash table functions.  Routines are
   7270 provided to initialize a hash table, to free a hash table, to look up a
   7271 string in a hash table and optionally create an entry for it, and to
   7272 traverse a hash table.  There is currently no routine to delete an
   7273 string from a hash table.
   7274 
   7275    The basic hash table does not permit any data to be stored with a
   7276 string.  However, a hash table is designed to present a base class from
   7277 which other types of hash tables may be derived.  These derived types
   7278 may store additional information with the string.  Hash tables were
   7279 implemented in this way, rather than simply providing a data pointer in
   7280 a hash table entry, because they were designed for use by the linker
   7281 back ends.  The linker may create thousands of hash table entries, and
   7282 the overhead of allocating private data and storing and following
   7283 pointers becomes noticeable.
   7284 
   7285    The basic hash table code is in `hash.c'.

   7296 
   7297 2.18.1 Creating and freeing a hash table
   7298 ----------------------------------------
   7299 
   7300 To create a hash table, create an instance of a `struct bfd_hash_table'
   7301 (defined in `bfd.h') and call `bfd_hash_table_init' (if you know
   7302 approximately how many entries you will need, the function
   7303 `bfd_hash_table_init_n', which takes a SIZE argument, may be used).
   7304 `bfd_hash_table_init' returns `FALSE' if some sort of error occurs.
   7305 
   7306    The function `bfd_hash_table_init' take as an argument a function to
   7307 use to create new entries.  For a basic hash table, use the function
   7308 `bfd_hash_newfunc'.  *Note Deriving a New Hash Table Type::, for why
   7309 you would want to use a different value for this argument.
   7310 
   7311    `bfd_hash_table_init' will create an objalloc which will be used to
   7312 allocate new entries.  You may allocate memory on this objalloc using
   7313 `bfd_hash_allocate'.
   7314 
   7315    Use `bfd_hash_table_free' to free up all the memory that has been
   7316 allocated for a hash table.  This will not free up the `struct
   7317 bfd_hash_table' itself, which you must provide.
   7318 
   7319    Use `bfd_hash_set_default_size' to set the default size of hash
   7320 table to use.

   7324 
   7325 2.18.2 Looking up or entering a string
   7326 --------------------------------------
   7327 
   7328 The function `bfd_hash_lookup' is used both to look up a string in the
   7329 hash table and to create a new entry.
   7330 
   7331    If the CREATE argument is `FALSE', `bfd_hash_lookup' will look up a
   7332 string.  If the string is found, it will returns a pointer to a `struct
   7333 bfd_hash_entry'.  If the string is not found in the table
   7334 `bfd_hash_lookup' will return `NULL'.  You should not modify any of the
   7335 fields in the returns `struct bfd_hash_entry'.
   7336 
   7337    If the CREATE argument is `TRUE', the string will be entered into
   7338 the hash table if it is not already there.  Either way a pointer to a
   7339 `struct bfd_hash_entry' will be returned, either to the existing
   7340 structure or to a newly created one.  In this case, a `NULL' return
   7341 means that an error occurred.
   7342 
   7343    If the CREATE argument is `TRUE', and a new entry is created, the
   7344 COPY argument is used to decide whether to copy the string onto the
   7345 hash table objalloc or not.  If COPY is passed as `FALSE', you must be
   7346 careful not to deallocate or modify the string as long as the hash table
   7347 exists.

   7352 2.18.3 Traversing a hash table
   7353 ------------------------------
   7354 
   7355 The function `bfd_hash_traverse' may be used to traverse a hash table,
   7356 calling a function on each element.  The traversal is done in a random
   7357 order.
   7358 
   7359    `bfd_hash_traverse' takes as arguments a function and a generic
   7360 `void *' pointer.  The function is called with a hash table entry (a
   7361 `struct bfd_hash_entry *') and the generic pointer passed to
   7362 `bfd_hash_traverse'.  The function must return a `boolean' value, which
   7363 indicates whether to continue traversing the hash table.  If the
   7364 function returns `FALSE', `bfd_hash_traverse' will stop the traversal
   7365 and return immediately.

   7370 2.18.4 Deriving a new hash table type
   7371 -------------------------------------
   7372 
   7373 Many uses of hash tables want to store additional information which
   7374 each entry in the hash table.  Some also find it convenient to store
   7375 additional information with the hash table itself.  This may be done
   7376 using a derived hash table.
   7377 
   7378    Since C is not an object oriented language, creating a derived hash
   7379 table requires sticking together some boilerplate routines with a few
   7380 differences specific to the type of hash table you want to create.
   7381 
   7382    An example of a derived hash table is the linker hash table.  The
   7383 structures for this are defined in `bfdlink.h'.  The functions are in
   7384 `linker.c'.
   7385 
   7386    You may also derive a hash table from an already derived hash table.
   7387 For example, the a.out linker backend code uses a hash table derived
   7388 from the linker hash table.

   7398 
   7399 2.18.4.1 Define the derived structures
   7400 ......................................
   7401 
   7402 You must define a structure for an entry in the hash table, and a
   7403 structure for the hash table itself.
   7404 
   7405    The first field in the structure for an entry in the hash table must
   7406 be of the type used for an entry in the hash table you are deriving
   7407 from.  If you are deriving from a basic hash table this is `struct
   7408 bfd_hash_entry', which is defined in `bfd.h'.  The first field in the
   7409 structure for the hash table itself must be of the type of the hash
   7410 table you are deriving from itself.  If you are deriving from a basic
   7411 hash table, this is `struct bfd_hash_table'.
   7412 
   7413    For example, the linker hash table defines `struct
   7414 bfd_link_hash_entry' (in `bfdlink.h').  The first field, `root', is of
   7415 type `struct bfd_hash_entry'.  Similarly, the first field in `struct
   7416 bfd_link_hash_table', `table', is of type `struct bfd_hash_table'.

   7421 2.18.4.2 Write the derived creation routine
   7422 ...........................................
   7423 
   7424 You must write a routine which will create and initialize an entry in
   7425 the hash table.  This routine is passed as the function argument to
   7426 `bfd_hash_table_init'.
   7427 
   7428    In order to permit other hash tables to be derived from the hash
   7429 table you are creating, this routine must be written in a standard way.
   7430 
   7431    The first argument to the creation routine is a pointer to a hash
   7432 table entry.  This may be `NULL', in which case the routine should
   7433 allocate the right amount of space.  Otherwise the space has already
   7434 been allocated by a hash table type derived from this one.
   7435 
   7436    After allocating space, the creation routine must call the creation
   7437 routine of the hash table type it is derived from, passing in a pointer
   7438 to the space it just allocated.  This will initialize any fields used
   7439 by the base hash table.
   7440 
   7441    Finally the creation routine must initialize any local fields for
   7442 the new hash table type.
   7443 
   7444    Here is a boilerplate example of a creation routine.  FUNCTION_NAME
   7445 is the name of the routine.  ENTRY_TYPE is the type of an entry in the
   7446 hash table you are creating.  BASE_NEWFUNC is the name of the creation
   7447 routine of the hash table type your hash table is derived from.
   7448 
   7449      struct bfd_hash_entry *
   7450      FUNCTION_NAME (struct bfd_hash_entry *entry,
   7451                           struct bfd_hash_table *table,
   7452                           const char *string)
   7453      {
   7454        struct ENTRY_TYPE *ret = (ENTRY_TYPE *) entry;
   7455 
   7456       /* Allocate the structure if it has not already been allocated by a
   7457          derived class.  */
   7458        if (ret == NULL)
   7459          {
   7460            ret = bfd_hash_allocate (table, sizeof (* ret));
   7461            if (ret == NULL)
   7462              return NULL;
   7463          }
   7464 
   7465       /* Call the allocation method of the base class.  */
   7466        ret = ((ENTRY_TYPE *)
   7467              BASE_NEWFUNC ((struct bfd_hash_entry *) ret, table, string));
   7468 
   7469       /* Initialize the local fields here.  */
   7470 
   7471        return (struct bfd_hash_entry *) ret;
   7472      }
   7473    *Description*
   7474 The creation routine for the linker hash table, which is in `linker.c',
   7475 looks just like this example.  FUNCTION_NAME is
   7476 `_bfd_link_hash_newfunc'.  ENTRY_TYPE is `struct bfd_link_hash_entry'.
   7477 BASE_NEWFUNC is `bfd_hash_newfunc', the creation routine for a basic
   7478 hash table.
   7479 
   7480    `_bfd_link_hash_newfunc' also initializes the local fields in a
   7481 linker hash table entry: `type', `written' and `next'.

   7486 2.18.4.3 Write other derived routines
   7487 .....................................
   7488 
   7489 You will want to write other routines for your new hash table, as well.
   7490 
   7491    You will want an initialization routine which calls the
   7492 initialization routine of the hash table you are deriving from and
   7493 initializes any other local fields.  For the linker hash table, this is
   7494 `_bfd_link_hash_table_init' in `linker.c'.
   7495 
   7496    You will want a lookup routine which calls the lookup routine of the
   7497 hash table you are deriving from and casts the result.  The linker hash
   7498 table uses `bfd_link_hash_lookup' in `linker.c' (this actually takes an
   7499 additional argument which it uses to decide how to return the looked up
   7500 value).
   7501 
   7502    You may want a traversal routine.  This should just call the
   7503 traversal routine of the hash table you are deriving from with
   7504 appropriate casts.  The linker hash table uses `bfd_link_hash_traverse'
   7505 in `linker.c'.
   7506 
   7507    These routines may simply be defined as macros.  For example, the
   7508 a.out backend linker hash table, which is derived from the linker hash
   7509 table, uses macros for the lookup and traversal routines.  These are
   7510 `aout_link_hash_lookup' and `aout_link_hash_traverse' in aoutx.h.

   7538 ==================
   7539 
   7540 *Description*
   7541 BFD supports a number of different flavours of a.out format, though the
   7542 major differences are only the sizes of the structures on disk, and the
   7543 shape of the relocation information.
   7544 
   7545    The support is split into a basic support file `aoutx.h' and other
   7546 files which derive functions from the base. One derivation file is
   7547 `aoutf1.h' (for a.out flavour 1), and adds to the basic a.out functions
   7548 support for sun3, sun4, 386 and 29k a.out files, to create a target
   7549 jump vector for a specific target.
   7550 
   7551    This information is further split out into more specific files for
   7552 each machine, including `sunos.c' for sun3 and sun4, `newsos3.c' for
   7553 the Sony NEWS, and `demo64.c' for a demonstration of a 64 bit a.out
   7554 format.
   7555 
   7556    The base file `aoutx.h' defines general mechanisms for reading and
   7557 writing records to and from disk and various other methods which BFD
   7558 requires. It is included by `aout32.c' and `aout64.c' to form the names
   7559 `aout_32_swap_exec_header_in', `aout_64_swap_exec_header_in', etc.
   7560 
   7561    As an example, this is what goes on to make the back end for a sun4,
   7562 from `aout32.c':
   7563 
   7564             #define ARCH_SIZE 32
   7565             #include "aoutx.h"
   7566 
   7567    Which exports names:
   7568 
   7569             ...
   7570             aout_32_canonicalize_reloc
   7571             aout_32_find_nearest_line
   7572             aout_32_get_lineno
   7573             aout_32_get_reloc_upper_bound
   7574             ...
   7575 
   7576    from `sunos.c':
   7577 
   7578             #define TARGET_NAME "a.out-sunos-big"
   7579             #define VECNAME    sunos_big_vec
   7580             #include "aoutf1.h"
   7581 
   7582    requires all the names from `aout32.c', and produces the jump vector
   7583 
   7584             sunos_big_vec
   7585 
   7586    The file `host-aout.c' is a special case.  It is for a large set of
   7587 hosts that use "more or less standard" a.out files, and for which
   7588 cross-debugging is not interesting.  It uses the standard 32-bit a.out
   7589 support routines, but determines the file offsets and addresses of the
   7590 text, data, and BSS sections, the machine architecture and machine
   7591 type, and the entry point address, in a host-dependent manner.  Once
   7592 these values have been determined, generic code is used to handle the
   7593 object file.
   7594 
   7595    When porting it to run on a new system, you must supply:
   7596 
   7597              HOST_PAGE_SIZE
   7598              HOST_SEGMENT_SIZE
   7599              HOST_MACHINE_ARCH       (optional)
   7600              HOST_MACHINE_MACHINE    (optional)
   7601              HOST_TEXT_START_ADDR
   7602              HOST_STACK_END_ADDR
   7603 
   7604    in the file `../include/sys/h-XXX.h' (for your host).  These values,
   7605 plus the structures and macros defined in `a.out.h' on your host

   7616 3.2.1 Relocations
   7617 -----------------
   7618 
   7619 *Description*
   7620 The file `aoutx.h' provides for both the _standard_ and _extended_
   7621 forms of a.out relocation records.
   7622 
   7623    The standard records contain only an address, a symbol index, and a
   7624 type field. The extended records (used on 29ks and sparcs) also have a
   7625 full integer for an addend.

   7630 *Description*
   7631 `aoutx.h' exports several routines for accessing the contents of an
   7632 a.out file, which are gathered and exported in turn by various format
   7633 specific files (eg sunos.c).

   7723 
   7724 3.3 coff backends
   7725 =================
   7726 
   7727 BFD supports a number of different flavours of coff format.  The major
   7728 differences between formats are the sizes and alignments of fields in
   7729 structures on disk, and the occasional extra field.
   7730 
   7731    Coff in all its varieties is implemented with a few common files and
   7732 a number of implementation specific files. For example, The 88k bcs
   7733 coff format is implemented in the file `coff-m88k.c'. This file
   7734 `#include's `coff/m88k.h' which defines the external structure of the
   7735 coff format for the 88k, and `coff/internal.h' which defines the
   7736 internal structure. `coff-m88k.c' also defines the relocations used by
   7737 the 88k format *Note Relocations::.
   7738 
   7739    The Intel i960 processor version of coff is implemented in
   7740 `coff-i960.c'. This file has the same structure as `coff-m88k.c',
   7741 except that it includes `coff/i960.h' rather than `coff-m88k.h'.
   7742 
   7743 3.3.1 Porting to a new version of coff
   7744 --------------------------------------
   7745 
   7746 The recommended method is to select from the existing implementations
   7747 the version of coff which is most like the one you want to use.  For
   7748 example, we'll say that i386 coff is the one you select, and that your
   7749 coff flavour is called foo.  Copy `i386coff.c' to `foocoff.c', copy
   7750 `../include/coff/i386.h' to `../include/coff/foo.h', and add the lines
   7751 to `targets.c' and `Makefile.in' so that your new back end is used.
   7752 Alter the shapes of the structures in `../include/coff/foo.h' so that
   7753 they match what you need. You will probably also have to add `#ifdef's
   7754 to the code in `coff/internal.h' and `coffcode.h' if your version of
   7755 coff is too wild.
   7756 
   7757    You can verify that your new BFD backend works quite simply by
   7758 building `objdump' from the `binutils' directory, and making sure that
   7759 its version of what's going on and your host system's idea (assuming it
   7760 has the pretty standard coff dump utility, usually called `att-dump' or
   7761 just `dump') are the same.  Then clean up your code, and send what
   7762 you've done to Cygnus. Then your stuff will be in the next release, and
   7763 you won't have to keep integrating it.
   7764 
   7765 3.3.2 How the coff backend works
   7766 --------------------------------
   7767 
   7768 3.3.2.1 File layout
   7769 ...................
   7770 
   7771 The Coff backend is split into generic routines that are applicable to
   7772 any Coff target and routines that are specific to a particular target.
   7773 The target-specific routines are further split into ones which are
   7774 basically the same for all Coff targets except that they use the
   7775 external symbol format or use different values for certain constants.
   7776 
   7777    The generic routines are in `coffgen.c'.  These routines work for
   7778 any Coff target.  They use some hooks into the target specific code;
   7779 the hooks are in a `bfd_coff_backend_data' structure, one of which
   7780 exists for each target.
   7781 
   7782    The essentially similar target-specific routines are in
   7783 `coffcode.h'.  This header file includes executable C code.  The
   7784 various Coff targets first include the appropriate Coff header file,
   7785 make any special defines that are needed, and then include `coffcode.h'.
   7786 
   7787    Some of the Coff targets then also have additional routines in the
   7788 target source file itself.
   7789 
   7790    For example, `coff-i960.c' includes `coff/internal.h' and
   7791 `coff/i960.h'.  It then defines a few constants, such as `I960', and
   7792 includes `coffcode.h'.  Since the i960 has complex relocation types,
   7793 `coff-i960.c' also includes some code to manipulate the i960 relocs.
   7794 This code is not in `coffcode.h' because it would not be used by any
   7795 other target.
   7796 
   7797 3.3.2.2 Bit twiddling
   7798 .....................
   7799 
   7800 Each flavour of coff supported in BFD has its own header file
   7801 describing the external layout of the structures. There is also an
   7802 internal description of the coff layout, in `coff/internal.h'. A major
   7803 function of the coff backend is swapping the bytes and twiddling the
   7804 bits to translate the external form of the structures into the normal
   7805 internal form. This is all performed in the `bfd_swap'_thing_direction
   7806 routines. Some elements are different sizes between different versions
   7807 of coff; it is the duty of the coff version specific include file to
   7808 override the definitions of various packing routines in `coffcode.h'.
   7809 E.g., the size of line number entry in coff is sometimes 16 bits, and
   7810 sometimes 32 bits. `#define'ing `PUT_LNSZ_LNNO' and `GET_LNSZ_LNNO'
   7811 will select the correct one. No doubt, some day someone will find a
   7812 version of coff which has a varying field size not catered to at the
   7813 moment. To port BFD, that person will have to add more `#defines'.
   7814 Three of the bit twiddling routines are exported to `gdb';
   7815 `coff_swap_aux_in', `coff_swap_sym_in' and `coff_swap_lineno_in'. `GDB'
   7816 reads the symbol table on its own, but uses BFD to fix things up.  More
   7817 of the bit twiddlers are exported for `gas'; `coff_swap_aux_out',
   7818 `coff_swap_sym_out', `coff_swap_lineno_out', `coff_swap_reloc_out',
   7819 `coff_swap_filehdr_out', `coff_swap_aouthdr_out',
   7820 `coff_swap_scnhdr_out'. `Gas' currently keeps track of all the symbol
   7821 table and reloc drudgery itself, thereby saving the internal BFD
   7822 overhead, but uses BFD to swap things on the way out, making cross
   7823 ports much safer.  Doing so also allows BFD (and thus the linker) to
   7824 use the same header files as `gas', which makes one avenue to disaster
   7825 disappear.
   7826 
   7827 3.3.2.3 Symbol reading
   7828 ......................
   7829 
   7830 The simple canonical form for symbols used by BFD is not rich enough to
   7831 keep all the information available in a coff symbol table. The back end
   7832 gets around this problem by keeping the original symbol table around,
   7833 "behind the scenes".
   7834 
   7835    When a symbol table is requested (through a call to
   7836 `bfd_canonicalize_symtab'), a request gets through to
   7837 `coff_get_normalized_symtab'. This reads the symbol table from the coff
   7838 file and swaps all the structures inside into the internal form. It
   7839 also fixes up all the pointers in the table (represented in the file by
   7840 offsets from the first symbol in the table) into physical pointers to
   7841 elements in the new internal table. This involves some work since the
   7842 meanings of fields change depending upon context: a field that is a
   7843 pointer to another structure in the symbol table at one moment may be
   7844 the size in bytes of a structure at the next.  Another pass is made
   7845 over the table. All symbols which mark file names (`C_FILE' symbols)
   7846 are modified so that the internal string points to the value in the
   7847 auxent (the real filename) rather than the normal text associated with
   7848 the symbol (`".file"').
   7849 
   7850    At this time the symbol names are moved around. Coff stores all
   7851 symbols less than nine characters long physically within the symbol
   7852 table; longer strings are kept at the end of the file in the string
   7853 table. This pass moves all strings into memory and replaces them with
   7854 pointers to the strings.
   7855 
   7856    The symbol table is massaged once again, this time to create the
   7857 canonical table used by the BFD application. Each symbol is inspected
   7858 in turn, and a decision made (using the `sclass' field) about the
   7859 various flags to set in the `asymbol'.  *Note Symbols::. The generated
   7860 canonical table shares strings with the hidden internal symbol table.
   7861 
   7862    Any linenumbers are read from the coff file too, and attached to the
   7863 symbols which own the functions the linenumbers belong to.
   7864 
   7865 3.3.2.4 Symbol writing
   7866 ......................
   7867 
   7868 Writing a symbol to a coff file which didn't come from a coff file will
   7869 lose any debugging information. The `asymbol' structure remembers the
   7870 BFD from which the symbol was taken, and on output the back end makes
   7871 sure that the same destination target as source target is present.
   7872 
   7873    When the symbols have come from a coff file then all the debugging
   7874 information is preserved.
   7875 
   7876    Symbol tables are provided for writing to the back end in a vector
   7877 of pointers to pointers. This allows applications like the linker to
   7878 accumulate and output large symbol tables without having to do too much
   7879 byte copying.
   7880 
   7881    This function runs through the provided symbol table and patches
   7882 each symbol marked as a file place holder (`C_FILE') to point to the
   7883 next file place holder in the list. It also marks each `offset' field
   7884 in the list with the offset from the first symbol of the current symbol.
   7885 
   7886    Another function of this procedure is to turn the canonical value
   7887 form of BFD into the form used by coff. Internally, BFD expects symbol
   7888 values to be offsets from a section base; so a symbol physically at
   7889 0x120, but in a section starting at 0x100, would have the value 0x20.
   7890 Coff expects symbols to contain their final value, so symbols have
   7891 their values changed at this point to reflect their sum with their
   7892 owning section.  This transformation uses the `output_section' field of
   7893 the `asymbol''s `asection' *Note Sections::.
   7894 
   7895    * `coff_mangle_symbols'
   7896    This routine runs though the provided symbol table and uses the
   7897 offsets generated by the previous pass and the pointers generated when
   7898 the symbol table was read in to create the structured hierarchy
   7899 required by coff. It changes each pointer to a symbol into the index
   7900 into the symbol table of the asymbol.
   7901 
   7902    * `coff_write_symbols'
   7903    This routine runs through the symbol table and patches up the
   7904 symbols from their internal form into the coff way, calls the bit
   7905 twiddlers, and writes out the table to the file.

   8247 3.3.2.7 Writing relocations
   8248 ...........................
   8249 
   8250 To write relocations, the back end steps though the canonical
   8251 relocation table and create an `internal_reloc'. The symbol index to
   8252 use is removed from the `offset' field in the symbol table supplied.
   8253 The address comes directly from the sum of the section base address and
   8254 the relocation offset; the type is dug directly from the howto field.
   8255 Then the `internal_reloc' is swapped into the shape of an
   8256 `external_reloc' and written out to disk.
   8257 
   8258 3.3.2.8 Reading linenumbers
   8259 ...........................
   8260 
   8261 Creating the linenumber table is done by reading in the entire coff
   8262 linenumber table, and creating another table for internal use.
   8263 
   8264    A coff linenumber table is structured so that each function is
   8265 marked as having a line number of 0. Each line within the function is
   8266 an offset from the first line in the function. The base of the line
   8267 number information for the table is stored in the symbol associated
   8268 with the function.
   8269 
   8270    Note: The PE format uses line number 0 for a flag indicating a new
   8271 source file.
   8272 
   8273    The information is copied from the external to the internal table,
   8274 and each symbol which marks a function is marked by pointing its...
   8275 
   8276    How does this work ?
   8277 
   8278 3.3.2.9 Reading relocations
   8279 ...........................
   8280 
   8281 Coff relocations are easily transformed into the internal BFD form
   8282 (`arelent').
   8283 
   8284    Reading a coff relocation table is done in the following stages:
   8285 
   8286    * Read the entire coff relocation table into memory.
   8287 
   8288    * Process each relocation in turn; first swap it from the external
   8289      to the internal form.
   8290 
   8291    * Turn the symbol referenced in the relocation's symbol index into a
   8292      pointer into the canonical symbol table.  This table is the same
   8293      as the one returned by a call to `bfd_canonicalize_symtab'. The
   8294      back end will call that routine and save the result if a
   8295      canonicalization hasn't been done.
   8296 
   8297    * The reloc index is turned into a pointer to a howto structure, in
   8298      a back end specific way. For instance, the 386 and 960 use the
   8299      `r_type' to directly produce an index into a howto table vector;
   8300      the 88k subtracts a number from the `r_type' field and creates an
   8301      addend field.

   8306 3.4 ELF backends
   8307 ================
   8308 
   8309 BFD support for ELF formats is being worked on.  Currently, the best
   8310 supported back ends are for sparc and i386 (running svr4 or Solaris 2).
   8311 
   8312    Documentation of the internals of the support code still needs to be
   8313 written.  The code is changing quickly enough that we haven't bothered
   8314 yet.

   8320      struct elf_internal_shdr *bfd_elf_find_section (bfd *abfd, char *name);
   8321    *Description*
   8322 Helper functions for GDB to locate the string tables.  Since BFD hides
   8323 string tables from callers, GDB needs to use an internal hook to find
   8324 them.  Sun's .stabstr, in particular, isn't even pointed to by the
   8325 .stab section, so ordinary mechanisms wouldn't work to find it, even if
   8326 we had some.

   8331 3.5 mmo backend
   8332 ===============
   8333 
   8334 The mmo object format is used exclusively together with Professor
   8335 Donald E. Knuth's educational 64-bit processor MMIX.  The simulator
   8336 `mmix' which is available at
   8337 `http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/programs/mmix.tar.gz'
   8338 understands this format.  That package also includes a combined
   8339 assembler and linker called `mmixal'.  The mmo format has no advantages
   8340 feature-wise compared to e.g. ELF.  It is a simple non-relocatable
   8341 object format with no support for archives or debugging information,
   8342 except for symbol value information and line numbers (which is not yet
   8343 implemented in BFD).  See
   8344 `http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/mmix.html' for more
   8345 information about MMIX.  The ELF format is used for intermediate object
   8346 files in the BFD implementation.

   8357 3.5.1 File layout
   8358 -----------------
   8359 
   8360 The mmo file contents is not partitioned into named sections as with
   8361 e.g. ELF.  Memory areas is formed by specifying the location of the
   8362 data that follows.  Only the memory area `0x0000...00' to `0x01ff...ff'
   8363 is executable, so it is used for code (and constants) and the area
   8364 `0x2000...00' to `0x20ff...ff' is used for writable data.  *Note mmo
   8365 section mapping::.
   8366 
   8367    There is provision for specifying "special data" of 65536 different
   8368 types.  We use type 80 (decimal), arbitrarily chosen the same as the
   8369 ELF `e_machine' number for MMIX, filling it with section information
   8370 normally found in ELF objects. *Note mmo section mapping::.
   8371 
   8372    Contents is entered as 32-bit words, xor:ed over previous contents,
   8373 always zero-initialized.  A word that starts with the byte `0x98' forms
   8374 a command called a `lopcode', where the next byte distinguished between
   8375 the thirteen lopcodes.  The two remaining bytes, called the `Y' and `Z'
   8376 fields, or the `YZ' field (a 16-bit big-endian number), are used for
   8377 various purposes different for each lopcode.  As documented in
   8378 `http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/mmixal-intro.ps.gz', the
   8379 lopcodes are:
   8380 
   8381 `lop_quote'
   8382      0x98000001.  The next word is contents, regardless of whether it
   8383      starts with 0x98 or not.
   8384 
   8385 `lop_loc'
   8386      0x9801YYZZ, where `Z' is 1 or 2.  This is a location directive,
   8387      setting the location for the next data to the next 32-bit word
   8388      (for Z = 1) or 64-bit word (for Z = 2), plus Y * 2^56.  Normally
   8389      `Y' is 0 for the text segment and 2 for the data segment.
   8390 
   8391 `lop_skip'
   8392      0x9802YYZZ.  Increase the current location by `YZ' bytes.
   8393 
   8394 `lop_fixo'
   8395      0x9803YYZZ, where `Z' is 1 or 2.  Store the current location as 64
   8396      bits into the location pointed to by the next 32-bit (Z = 1) or
   8397      64-bit (Z = 2) word, plus Y * 2^56.
   8398 
   8399 `lop_fixr'
   8400      0x9804YYZZ.  `YZ' is stored into the current location plus 2 - 4 *
   8401      YZ.
   8402 
   8403 `lop_fixrx'
   8404      0x980500ZZ.  `Z' is 16 or 24.  A value `L' derived from the
   8405      following 32-bit word are used in a manner similar to `YZ' in
   8406      lop_fixr: it is xor:ed into the current location minus 4 * L.  The
   8407      first byte of the word is 0 or 1.  If it is 1, then L = (LOWEST 24
   8408      BITS OF WORD) - 2^Z, if 0, then L = (LOWEST 24 BITS OF WORD).
   8409 
   8410 `lop_file'
   8411      0x9806YYZZ.  `Y' is the file number, `Z' is count of 32-bit words.
   8412      Set the file number to `Y' and the line counter to 0.  The next Z
   8413      * 4 bytes contain the file name, padded with zeros if the count is
   8414      not a multiple of four.  The same `Y' may occur multiple times,
   8415      but `Z' must be 0 for all but the first occurrence.
   8416 
   8417 `lop_line'
   8418      0x9807YYZZ.  `YZ' is the line number.  Together with lop_file, it
   8419      forms the source location for the next 32-bit word.  Note that for
   8420      each non-lopcode 32-bit word, line numbers are assumed incremented
   8421      by one.
   8422 
   8423 `lop_spec'
   8424      0x9808YYZZ.  `YZ' is the type number.  Data until the next lopcode
   8425      other than lop_quote forms special data of type `YZ'.  *Note mmo
   8426      section mapping::.
   8427 
   8428      Other types than 80, (or type 80 with a content that does not
   8429      parse) is stored in sections named `.MMIX.spec_data.N' where N is
   8430      the `YZ'-type.  The flags for such a sections say not to allocate
   8431      or load the data.  The vma is 0.  Contents of multiple occurrences
   8432      of special data N is concatenated to the data of the previous
   8433      lop_spec Ns.  The location in data or code at which the lop_spec
   8434      occurred is lost.
   8435 
   8436 `lop_pre'
   8437      0x980901ZZ.  The first lopcode in a file.  The `Z' field forms the
   8438      length of header information in 32-bit words, where the first word
   8439      tells the time in seconds since `00:00:00 GMT Jan 1 1970'.
   8440 
   8441 `lop_post'
   8442      0x980a00ZZ.  Z > 32.  This lopcode follows after all
   8443      content-generating lopcodes in a program.  The `Z' field denotes
   8444      the value of `rG' at the beginning of the program.  The following
   8445      256 - Z big-endian 64-bit words are loaded into global registers
   8446      `$G' ... `$255'.
   8447 
   8448 `lop_stab'
   8449      0x980b0000.  The next-to-last lopcode in a program.  Must follow
   8450      immediately after the lop_post lopcode and its data.  After this
   8451      lopcode follows all symbols in a compressed format (*note
   8452      Symbol-table::).
   8453 
   8454 `lop_end'
   8455      0x980cYYZZ.  The last lopcode in a program.  It must follow the
   8456      lop_stab lopcode and its data.  The `YZ' field contains the number
   8457      of 32-bit words of symbol table information after the preceding
   8458      lop_stab lopcode.
   8459 
   8460    Note that the lopcode "fixups"; `lop_fixr', `lop_fixrx' and
   8461 `lop_fixo' are not generated by BFD, but are handled.  They are
   8462 generated by `mmixal'.
   8463 
   8464    This trivial one-label, one-instruction file:
   8465 
   8466       :Main TRAP 1,2,3
   8467 
   8468    can be represented this way in mmo:
   8469 
   8470       0x98090101 - lop_pre, one 32-bit word with timestamp.
   8471       <timestamp>
   8472       0x98010002 - lop_loc, text segment, using a 64-bit address.
   8473                    Note that mmixal does not emit this for the file above.
   8474       0x00000000 - Address, high 32 bits.
   8475       0x00000000 - Address, low 32 bits.
   8476       0x98060002 - lop_file, 2 32-bit words for file-name.
   8477       0x74657374 - "test"
   8478       0x2e730000 - ".s\0\0"
   8479       0x98070001 - lop_line, line 1.
   8480       0x00010203 - TRAP 1,2,3
   8481       0x980a00ff - lop_post, setting $255 to 0.
   8482       0x00000000
   8483       0x00000000
   8484       0x980b0000 - lop_stab for ":Main" = 0, serial 1.

   8495 3.5.2 Symbol table format
   8496 -------------------------
   8497 
   8498 From mmixal.w (or really, the generated mmixal.tex) in
   8499 `http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/programs/mmix.tar.gz'):
   8500 "Symbols are stored and retrieved by means of a `ternary search trie',
   8501 following ideas of Bentley and Sedgewick. (See ACM-SIAM Symp. on
   8502 Discrete Algorithms `8' (1997), 360-369; R.Sedgewick, `Algorithms in C'
   8503 (Reading, Mass.  Addison-Wesley, 1998), `15.4'.)  Each trie node stores
   8504 a character, and there are branches to subtries for the cases where a
   8505 given character is less than, equal to, or greater than the character
   8506 in the trie.  There also is a pointer to a symbol table entry if a
   8507 symbol ends at the current node."
   8508 
   8509    So it's a tree encoded as a stream of bytes.  The stream of bytes
   8510 acts on a single virtual global symbol, adding and removing characters
   8511 and signalling complete symbol points.  Here, we read the stream and
   8512 create symbols at the completion points.
   8513 
   8514    First, there's a control byte `m'.  If any of the listed bits in `m'
   8515 is nonzero, we execute what stands at the right, in the listed order:
   8516 
   8517       (MMO3_LEFT)
   8518       0x40 - Traverse left trie.
   8519              (Read a new command byte and recurse.)
   8520 
   8521       (MMO3_SYMBITS)
   8522       0x2f - Read the next byte as a character and store it in the
   8523              current character position; increment character position.
   8524              Test the bits of `m':
   8525 
   8526              (MMO3_WCHAR)
   8527              0x80 - The character is 16-bit (so read another byte,
   8528                     merge into current character.
   8529 
   8530              (MMO3_TYPEBITS)
   8531              0xf  - We have a complete symbol; parse the type, value
   8532                     and serial number and do what should be done
   8533                     with a symbol.  The type and length information
   8534                     is in j = (m & 0xf).
   8535 
   8536                     (MMO3_REGQUAL_BITS)
   8537                     j == 0xf: A register variable.  The following
   8538                               byte tells which register.
   8539                     j <= 8:   An absolute symbol.  Read j bytes as the
   8540                               big-endian number the symbol equals.
   8541                               A j = 2 with two zero bytes denotes an
   8542                               unknown symbol.
   8543                     j > 8:    As with j <= 8, but add (0x20 << 56)
   8544                               to the value in the following j - 8
   8545                               bytes.
   8546 
   8547                     Then comes the serial number, as a variant of
   8548                     uleb128, but better named ubeb128:
   8549                     Read bytes and shift the previous value left 7
   8550                     (multiply by 128).  Add in the new byte, repeat
   8551                     until a byte has bit 7 set.  The serial number
   8552                     is the computed value minus 128.
   8553 
   8554              (MMO3_MIDDLE)
   8555              0x20 - Traverse middle trie.  (Read a new command byte
   8556                     and recurse.)  Decrement character position.
   8557 
   8558       (MMO3_RIGHT)
   8559       0x10 - Traverse right trie.  (Read a new command byte and
   8560              recurse.)
   8561 
   8562    Let's look again at the `lop_stab' for the trivial file (*note File
   8563 layout::).
   8564 
   8565       0x980b0000 - lop_stab for ":Main" = 0, serial 1.
   8566       0x203a4040
   8567       0x10404020
   8568       0x4d206120
   8569       0x69016e00
   8570       0x81000000
   8571 
   8572    This forms the trivial trie (note that the path between ":" and "M"
   8573 is redundant):
   8574 
   8575       203a     ":"
   8576       40       /
   8577       40      /
   8578       10      \
   8579       40      /
   8580       40     /
   8581       204d  "M"
   8582       2061  "a"
   8583       2069  "i"
   8584       016e  "n" is the last character in a full symbol, and
   8585             with a value represented in one byte.
   8586       00    The value is 0.
   8587       81    The serial number is 1.

   8592 3.5.3 mmo section mapping
   8593 -------------------------
   8594 
   8595 The implementation in BFD uses special data type 80 (decimal) to
   8596 encapsulate and describe named sections, containing e.g. debug
   8597 information.  If needed, any datum in the encapsulation will be quoted
   8598 using lop_quote.  First comes a 32-bit word holding the number of
   8599 32-bit words containing the zero-terminated zero-padded segment name.
   8600 After the name there's a 32-bit word holding flags describing the
   8601 section type.  Then comes a 64-bit big-endian word with the section
   8602 length (in bytes), then another with the section start address.
   8603 Depending on the type of section, the contents might follow,
   8604 zero-padded to 32-bit boundary.  For a loadable section (such as data
   8605 or code), the contents might follow at some later point, not
   8606 necessarily immediately, as a lop_loc with the same start address as in
   8607 the section description, followed by the contents.  This in effect
   8608 forms a descriptor that must be emitted before the actual contents.
   8609 Sections described this way must not overlap.
   8610 
   8611    For areas that don't have such descriptors, synthetic sections are
   8612 formed by BFD.  Consecutive contents in the two memory areas
   8613 `0x0000...00' to `0x01ff...ff' and `0x2000...00' to `0x20ff...ff' are
   8614 entered in sections named `.text' and `.data' respectively.  If an area
   8615 is not otherwise described, but would together with a neighboring lower
   8616 area be less than `0x40000000' bytes long, it is joined with the lower
   8617 area and the gap is zero-filled.  For other cases, a new section is
   8618 formed, named `.MMIX.sec.N'.  Here, N is a number, a running count
   8619 through the mmo file, starting at 0.
   8620 
   8621    A loadable section specified as:
   8622 
   8623       .section secname,"ax"
   8624       TETRA 1,2,3,4,-1,-2009
   8625       BYTE 80
   8626 
   8627    and linked to address `0x4', is represented by the sequence:
   8628 
   8629       0x98080050 - lop_spec 80
   8630       0x00000002 - two 32-bit words for the section name

   8648 
   8649    Note that the lop_spec wrapping does not include the section
   8650 contents.  Compare this to a non-loaded section specified as:

   8670 
   8671    For the latter example, the section contents must not be loaded in
   8672 memory, and is therefore specified as part of the special data.  The
   8673 address is usually unimportant but might provide information for e.g.
   8674 the DWARF 2 debugging format.

   8686 
   8687      Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
   8688      of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
   8689 
   8690 
   8691   0. PREAMBLE
   8692 
   8693      The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
   8694      written document "free" in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone
   8695      the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without
   8696      modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially.  Secondarily,
   8697      this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get
   8698      credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for
   8699      modifications made by others.
   8700 
   8701      This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
   8702      works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
   8703      It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
   8704      license designed for free software.
   8705 
   8706      We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
   8707      free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
   8708      free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
   8709      that the software does.  But this License is not limited to
   8710      software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
   8711      of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book.
   8712      We recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
   8713      instruction or reference.
   8714 
   8715 
   8716   1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
   8717 
   8718      This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a
   8719      notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed
   8720      under the terms of this License.  The "Document", below, refers to
   8721      any such manual or work.  Any member of the public is a licensee,
   8722      and is addressed as "you."
   8723 
   8724      A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
   8725      Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
   8726      modifications and/or translated into another language.
   8727 
   8728      A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter
   8729      section of the Document that deals exclusively with the
   8730      relationship of the publishers or authors of the Document to the
   8731      Document's overall subject (or to related matters) and contains
   8732      nothing that could fall directly within that overall subject.
   8733      (For example, if the Document is in part a textbook of
   8734      mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any mathematics.)
   8735      The relationship could be a matter of historical connection with
   8736      the subject or with related matters, or of legal, commercial,
   8737      philosophical, ethical or political position regarding them.
   8738 
   8739      The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose
   8740      titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in
   8741      the notice that says that the Document is released under this
   8742      License.
   8743 
   8744      The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are
   8745      listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
   8746      that says that the Document is released under this License.
   8747 
   8748      A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
   8749      represented in a format whose specification is available to the
   8750      general public, whose contents can be viewed and edited directly
   8751      and straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images
   8752      composed of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some
   8753      widely available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to
   8754      text formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of
   8755      formats suitable for input to text formatters.  A copy made in an
   8756      otherwise Transparent file format whose markup has been designed
   8757      to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by readers is not
   8758      Transparent.  A copy that is not "Transparent" is called "Opaque."
   8759 
   8760      Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
   8761      ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
   8762      SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and
   8763      standard-conforming simple HTML designed for human modification.
   8764      Opaque formats include PostScript, PDF, proprietary formats that
   8765      can be read and edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML
   8766      or XML for which the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally
   8767      available, and the machine-generated HTML produced by some word
   8768      processors for output purposes only.
   8769 
   8770      The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
   8771      plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
   8772      material this License requires to appear in the title page.  For
   8773      works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title
   8774      Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
   8775      work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
   8776 
   8777   2. VERBATIM COPYING
   8778 
   8779      You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
   8780      commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
   8781      copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
   8782      applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
   8783      add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License.  You
   8784      may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
   8785      or further copying of the copies you make or distribute.  However,
   8786      you may accept compensation in exchange for copies.  If you
   8787      distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow
   8788      the conditions in section 3.
   8789 
   8790      You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
   8791      and you may publicly display copies.
   8792 
   8793   3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
   8794 
   8795      If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more than
   8796      100, and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you
   8797      must enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly,
   8798      all these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
   8799      Back-Cover Texts on the back cover.  Both covers must also clearly
   8800      and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies.  The
   8801      front cover must present the full title with all words of the
   8802      title equally prominent and visible.  You may add other material
   8803      on the covers in addition.  Copying with changes limited to the
   8804      covers, as long as they preserve the title of the Document and
   8805      satisfy these conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in
   8806      other respects.
   8807 
   8808      If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
   8809      legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
   8810      reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
   8811      adjacent pages.
   8812 
   8813      If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
   8814      numbering more than 100, you must either include a
   8815      machine-readable Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or
   8816      state in or with each Opaque copy a publicly-accessible
   8817      computer-network location containing a complete Transparent copy
   8818      of the Document, free of added material, which the general
   8819      network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
   8820      charge using public-standard network protocols.  If you use the
   8821      latter option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you
   8822      begin distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that
   8823      this Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated
   8824      location until at least one year after the last time you
   8825      distribute an Opaque copy (directly or through your agents or
   8826      retailers) of that edition to the public.
   8827 
   8828      It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
   8829      the Document well before redistributing any large number of
   8830      copies, to give them a chance to provide you with an updated
   8831      version of the Document.
   8832 
   8833   4. MODIFICATIONS
   8834 
   8835      You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
   8836      under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
   8837      release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with
   8838      the Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus
   8839      licensing distribution and modification of the Modified Version to
   8840      whoever possesses a copy of it.  In addition, you must do these
   8841      things in the Modified Version:
   8842 
   8843      A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
   8844      distinct    from that of the Document, and from those of previous
   8845      versions    (which should, if there were any, be listed in the
   8846      History section    of the Document).  You may use the same title
   8847      as a previous version    if the original publisher of that version
   8848      gives permission.
   8849      B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
   8850      entities    responsible for authorship of the modifications in the
   8851      Modified    Version, together with at least five of the principal
   8852      authors of the    Document (all of its principal authors, if it
   8853      has less than five).
   8854      C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
   8855      Modified Version, as the publisher.
   8856      D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
   8857      E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
   8858      adjacent to the other copyright notices.
   8859      F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
   8860      notice    giving the public permission to use the Modified Version
   8861      under the    terms of this License, in the form shown in the
   8862      Addendum below.
   8863      G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
   8864      Sections    and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
   8865      license notice.
   8866      H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
   8867      I. Preserve the section entitled "History", and its title, and add
   8868      to    it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
   8869        publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page.
   8870      If    there is no section entitled "History" in the Document,
   8871      create one    stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of
   8872      the Document as    given on its Title Page, then add an item
   8873      describing the Modified    Version as stated in the previous
   8874      sentence.
   8875      J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
   8876        public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
   8877      likewise    the network locations given in the Document for
   8878      previous versions    it was based on.  These may be placed in the
   8879      "History" section.     You may omit a network location for a work
   8880      that was published at    least four years before the Document
   8881      itself, or if the original    publisher of the version it refers
   8882      to gives permission.
   8883      K. In any section entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
   8884      preserve the section's title, and preserve in the section all the
   8885       substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements
   8886      and/or dedications given therein.
   8887      L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
   8888      unaltered in their text and in their titles.  Section numbers
   8889      or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
   8890      M. Delete any section entitled "Endorsements."  Such a section
   8891      may not be included in the Modified Version.
   8892      N. Do not retitle any existing section as "Endorsements"    or to
   8893      conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
   8894 
   8895      If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
   8896      appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
   8897      material copied from the Document, you may at your option
   8898      designate some or all of these sections as invariant.  To do this,
   8899      add their titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified
   8900      Version's license notice.  These titles must be distinct from any
   8901      other section titles.
   8902 
   8903      You may add a section entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
   8904      nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
   8905      parties-for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
   8906      been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition
   8907      of a standard.
   8908 
   8909      You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
   8910      and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end
   8911      of the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version.  Only one
   8912      passage of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be
   8913      added by (or through arrangements made by) any one entity.  If the
   8914      Document already includes a cover text for the same cover,
   8915      previously added by you or by arrangement made by the same entity
   8916      you are acting on behalf of, you may not add another; but you may
   8917      replace the old one, on explicit permission from the previous
   8918      publisher that added the old one.
   8919 
   8920      The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
   8921      License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
   8922      assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
   8923 
   8924   5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
   8925 
   8926      You may combine the Document with other documents released under
   8927      this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
   8928      modified versions, provided that you include in the combination
   8929      all of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
   8930      unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
   8931      combined work in its license notice.
   8932 
   8933      The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
   8934      multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
   8935      copy.  If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
   8936      but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
   8937      by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
   8938      original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
   8939      unique number.  Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
   8940      the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
   8941      combined work.
   8942 
   8943      In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled
   8944      "History" in the various original documents, forming one section
   8945      entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections entitled
   8946      "Acknowledgements", and any sections entitled "Dedications."  You
   8947      must delete all sections entitled "Endorsements."
   8948 
   8949   6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
   8950 
   8951      You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
   8952      documents released under this License, and replace the individual
   8953      copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
   8954      that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
   8955      rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the
   8956      documents in all other respects.
   8957 
   8958      You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
   8959      distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
   8960      a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow
   8961      this License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of
   8962      that document.
   8963 
   8964   7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
   8965 
   8966      A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
   8967      separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of
   8968      a storage or distribution medium, does not as a whole count as a
   8969      Modified Version of the Document, provided no compilation
   8970      copyright is claimed for the compilation.  Such a compilation is
   8971      called an "aggregate", and this License does not apply to the
   8972      other self-contained works thus compiled with the Document, on
   8973      account of their being thus compiled, if they are not themselves
   8974      derivative works of the Document.
   8975 
   8976      If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
   8977      copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one
   8978      quarter of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be
   8979      placed on covers that surround only the Document within the
   8980      aggregate.  Otherwise they must appear on covers around the whole
   8981      aggregate.
   8982 
   8983   8. TRANSLATION
   8984 
   8985      Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
   8986      distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
   8987      4.  Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
   8988      permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
   8989      translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
   8990      original versions of these Invariant Sections.  You may include a
   8991      translation of this License provided that you also include the
   8992      original English version of this License.  In case of a
   8993      disagreement between the translation and the original English
   8994      version of this License, the original English version will prevail.
   8995 
   8996   9. TERMINATION
   8997 
   8998      You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
   8999      except as expressly provided for under this License.  Any other
   9000      attempt to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is
   9001      void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this
   9002      License.  However, parties who have received copies, or rights,
   9003      from you under this License will not have their licenses
   9004      terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.
   9005 
   9006  10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
   9007 
   9008      The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
   9009      the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time.  Such new
   9010      versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
   9011      differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.  See
   9012      http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.
   9013 
   9014      Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
   9015      number.  If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
   9016      version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you
   9017      have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
   9018      that specified version or of any later version that has been
   9019      published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.  If
   9020      the Document does not specify a version number of this License,
   9021      you may choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the
   9022      Free Software Foundation.

   9025 ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
   9026 ====================================================
   9027 
   9028 To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
   9029 the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
   9030 notices just after the title page:
   9031 
   9032      Copyright (C)  YEAR  YOUR NAME.
   9033      Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
   9034      under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1
   9035      or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
   9036      with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
   9037      Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
   9038      A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU
   9039      Free Documentation License."
   9040 
   9041    If you have no Invariant Sections, write "with no Invariant Sections"
   9042 instead of saying which ones are invariant.  If you have no Front-Cover
   9043 Texts, write "no Front-Cover Texts" instead of "Front-Cover Texts being
   9044 LIST"; likewise for Back-Cover Texts.
   9045 
   9046    If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
   9047 recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
   9048 free software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to
   9049 permit their use in free software.
