GNU ld gained separate Solaris-specific linker emulations (*_sol2) long
ago. Since their introduction, GCC has preferred them over their
non-*_sol2 counterparts but supported both forms. This has changed for
GCC 16: since all supported versions of GNU ld do support the *_sol2
emulations, GCC now uses them unconditionally.
libtool has also been updated to handle this since libtool 2.4.2 back in
2011. However, that change has only partially been backported to the
heavily patched libtool.m4 in the GCC tree: the sparcv9 part is there,
but the amd64 part is missing for some reason. This causes problems
with some recent binutils changes.
Therefore this patch cherry-picks the libtool patch to bring
Solaris/x86_64 in sync with Solaris/sparcv9 and upstream libtool.
Bootstrapped without regressions on {amd64,i386}-pc-solaris2.11 and
{sparcv9,sparc}-sun-solaris2.11.

binutils: Pass target plugin file to target ar/nm/ranlib
There are 2 kinds of binutils tests:
1. Tests of binutils object files and libraries using the build tools,
like CC, AR, NM and RANLIB.
2. Tests of binutils programs as the target tools, like CC_FOR_TARGET,
AR_FOR_TARGET, NM_FOR_TARGET and RANLIB_FOR_TARGET.
Set AR_PLUGIN_OPTION_FOR_TARGET, NM_PLUGIN_OPTION_FOR_TARGET and
RANLIB_PLUGIN_OPTION_FOR_TARGET to the target compiler plugin file for
target ar/nm/ranlib.

Fix 64-bit BFD detection causing build failures
We have a discrepancy with 64-bit BFD handling across our component
subdirectories leading to link failures such as:
ld: ../opcodes/.libs/libopcodes.a(disassemble.o): in function `disassembler': disassemble.c:(.text+0x65): undefined reference to `print_insn_alpha'
ld: disassemble.c:(.text+0x105): undefined reference to `print_insn_ia64'
ld: disassemble.c:(.text+0x11d): undefined reference to `print_insn_loongarch'
ld: disassemble.c:(.text+0x1a1): undefined reference to `print_insn_big_mips'
[...]
with some configurations having a 32-bit host and 64-bit BFD, such as:
`--host=i386-linux-gnu --target=riscv64-linux-gnu --enable-targets=all'.
This is ultimately due to how 64-bit BFD is enabled for bfd/ itself and
other subdirectorses and has been a regression from commit 1d5269c994bf
("unify 64-bit bfd checks").
For bfd/ the BFD_64_BIT autoconf macro from config/bfd64.m4 is used
combined with this logic in bfd/configure.ac:
case ${host64}-${target64}-${want64} in
*true*)
wordsize=64
bfd64_libs='$(BFD64_LIBS)'
all_backends='$(BFD64_BACKENDS) $(BFD32_BACKENDS)'
[...]
;;
false-false-false)
wordsize=32
all_backends='$(BFD32_BACKENDS)'
;;
esac
where the value of ${wordsize} switches between 32-bit and 64-bit BFD
via these pieces:
#define BFD_ARCH_SIZE @wordsize@
and:
#if BFD_ARCH_SIZE >= 64
#define BFD64
#endif
in bfd/bfd-in.h, which ultimately becomes a part of "bfd.h".
Then ${host64} is determined in bfd/configure.ac from the host's word
size, via the host's pointer size:
if test "x${ac_cv_sizeof_void_p}" = "x8"; then
host64=true
fi
And ${target64} is determined in bfd/configure.ac from the target's word
size:
if test ${target_size} = 64; then
target64=true
fi
Where multiple targets have been requested with `--enable-targets=all'
the presence of any 64-bit target will set "true" here.
Finally ${want64} is set according to `--enable-64-bit-bfd' user option
with an arrangement involving BFD_64_BIT:
BFD_64_BIT
if test $enable_64_bit_bfd = yes ; then
want64=true
else
want64=false
fi
which also, redundantly, checks and sets its result upon the host's word
size. Lastly ${want64} is also selectively set by target fragments in
bfd/config.bfd, which mostly if not completely overlaps with ${target64}
setting as described above.
Conversely other subdirectories only rely on BFD_64_BIT, so they fail to
notice that BFD is 64-bit and do not enable their 64-bit handling where
the host requested is 32-bit and 64-bit BFD has been enabled other than
with `--enable-64-bit-bfd'. One consequence is opcodes/disassemble.c
enables calls to its numerous own 64-bit backends by checking the BFD64
macro from "bfd.h", however does not actually enable said backends in
its Makefile. Hence the link errors quoted above.
Address the problem then by moving the `--enable-64-bit-bfd' option back
to bfd/configure.ac and remove the call to BFD_64_BIT from there and
then rewrite the macro in terms of checking for the presence of BFD64
macro in "bfd.h", which is the canonical way of determining whether BFD
is 64-bit or not.
Rather than running `grep' directly on ../bfd/bfd-in3.h as the opcodes/
fragment used to before the problematic commit:
if grep '#define BFD_ARCH_SIZE 64' ../bfd/bfd-in3.h > /dev/null; then
run the preprocessor on "bfd.h", which allows to invoke the macro from
configure.ac files placed in subdirectories located at deeper levels, by
relying on the preprocessor's search path.
This requires however that the invokers rely on `all-bfd' rather than
`configure-bfd' for their `configure' invocation stage, because "bfd.h"
is made by `make all' rather than `configure' in bfd/.
Do not cache the result of this check however, as reconfiguring a tree
such as to flip `--enable-64-bit-bfd' on or to change a secondary target
may affect BFD64 and we have no access to information about secondary
targets in BFD_64_BIT.
Also remove the ENABLE_BFD_64_BIT automake conditional, as it's not used
anywhere.
Last but not least remove the hack from gdb/configure.ac to fail builds
for `mips*-*-*' hosts where `--enable-targets=all' has been requested,
but `--enable-64-bit-bfd' has not as it's no longer needed. Such builds
complete successfully now, having enabled 64-bit BFD implicitly.

Revert "Pass GUILE down to subdirectories"
This reverts commit b7e5a29602.
This patch caused problems for some users when building gdb, because
it would cause 'guild' to be invoked with the wrong versin of guile.
On the whole it seems simpler to just back this out.
I'm checking this in to the binutils-gdb repository in the interest of
fixing the build for Andrew. No one has responded to the identical
patch sent to gcc-patches, but I will ping it there.

gdbserver/linux: probe for libiconv in configure
Make gdbserver's build system locate libiconv when building for Linux.
Commit 07b3255c3bae ("Filter invalid encodings from Linux thread names")
make libiconv madantory for building gdbserver on Linux.
While trying to cross-compile gdb for xtensa-fsf-linux-uclibc (with a
toolchain generated with crosstool-ng), I got:
/home/smarchi/src/binutils-gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.cc:48:10: fatal error: iconv.h: No such file or directory
48 | #include <iconv.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~
I downloaded GNU libiconv, built it for that host, and installed it in
an arbitrary directory. I had to modify the gdbserver build system to
locate libiconv and use it, the result is this patch.
I eventually found that crosstool-ng has a config option to make uclibc
provide an implementation of iconv, which is of course much easier. But
given that this patch is now written, I think it would be worth merging
it, it could help some people who do not have iconv built-in their libc
in the future (and may not have the luxury of rebuilding their libc like
I do).
Using AM_ICONV in configure.ac adds these options for configure (the
same we have for gdb):
--with-libiconv-prefix[=DIR] search for libiconv in DIR/include and DIR/lib
--without-libiconv-prefix don't search for libiconv in includedir and libdir
--with-libiconv-type=TYPE type of library to search for (auto/static/shared)
It sets the `LIBICONV` variable with whatever is needed to link with
libiconv, and adds the necessary `-I` flag to `CPPFLAGS`.
To avoid unnecessarily linking against libiconv on hosts that don't need
it, set `MAYBE_LIBICONV` with the contents of `LIBICONV` only if the
host is Linux, and use `MAYBE_LIBICONV` in `Makefile.in`.
Since libiconv is a hard requirement for Linux hosts, error out if it is
not found.
The bits in acinclude.m4 are similar to what we have in
gdb/acinclude.m4.
Update the top-level build system to support building against an in-tree
libiconv (I did not test this part though). Something tells me that the
all-gdbserver dependency on all-libiconv is unnecessary, since there is
already a dependency of configure-gdbserver on all-libiconv (and
all-gdbserver surely depends on configure-gdbserver). I just copied
what's done for GDB though.

This is vanilla zlib-1.3.1 imported over the existing zlib/ dir with:
* README adjusted to add the GCC note at the top;
* GCC's ChangeLog merged with the upstream one, as before;
* Deleted upstream Makefile as has been done before (we use an autoconf-
generated one)
Recent Darwin versions place contraints on the use of run paths
specified in environment variables. This breaks some assumptions
in the GCC build.
This change allows the user to configure a Darwin build to use
'@rpath/libraryname.dylib' in library names and then to add an
embedded runpath to executables (and libraries with dependents).
The embedded runpath is added by default unless the user adds
'-nodefaultrpaths' to the link line.
For an installed compiler, it means that any executable built with
that compiler will reference the runtimes installed with the
compiler (equivalent to hard-coding the library path into the name
of the library).
During build-time configurations any "-B" entries will be added to
the runpath thus the newly-built libraries will be found by exes.
Since the install name is set in libtool, that decision needs to be
available here (but might also cause dependent ones in Makefiles,
so we need to export a conditional).
This facility is not available for Darwin 8 or earlier, however the
existing environment variable runpath does work there.
We default this on for systems where the external DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
does not work and off for Darwin 8 or earlier. For systems that can
use either method, if the value is unset, we use the default (which
is currently DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH).

My previous nm patch handled all cases but one -- if the user set NM in
the environment to a path which contained an option, libtool's nm
detection tries to run nm against a copy of nm with the options in it:
e.g. if NM was set to "nm --blargle", and nm was found in /usr/bin, the
test would try to run "/usr/bin/nm --blargle /usr/bin/nm --blargle".
This is unlikely to be desirable: in this case we should run
"/usr/bin/nm --blargle /usr/bin/nm".
Furthermore, as part of this nm has to detect when the passed-in $NM
contains a path, and in that case avoid doing a path search itself.
This too was thrown off if an option contained something that looked
like a path, e.g. NM="nm -B../prev-gcc"; libtool then tries to run
"nm -B../prev-gcc nm" which rarely works well (and indeed it looks
to see whether that nm exists, finds it doesn't, and wrongly concludes
that nm -p or whatever does not work).
Fix all of these by clipping all options (defined as everything
including and after the first " -") before deciding whether nm
contains a path (but not using the clipped value for anything else),
and then removing all options from the path-modified nm before
looking to see whether that nm existed.
NM=my-nm now does a path search and runs e.g.
/usr/bin/my-nm -B /usr/bin/my-nm
NM=/usr/bin/my-nm now avoids a path search and runs e.g.
/usr/bin/my-nm -B /usr/bin/my-nm
NM="my-nm -p../wombat" now does a path search and runs e.g.
/usr/bin/my-nm -p../wombat -B /usr/bin/my-nm
NM="../prev-binutils/new-nm -B../prev-gcc" now avoids a path search:
../prev-binutils/my-nm -B../prev-gcc -B ../prev-binutils/my-nm
This seems to be all combinations, including those used by GCC bootstrap
(which, before this commit, fails to bootstrap when configured
--with-build-config=bootstrap-lto, because the lto plugin is now using
--export-symbols-regex, which requires libtool to find a working nm,
while also using -B../prev-gcc to point at the lto plugin associated
with the GCC just built.)

Libtool needs to get BSD-format (or MS-format) output out of the system
nm, so that it can scan generated object files for symbol names for
-export-symbols-regex support. Some nms need specific flags to turn on
BSD-formatted output, so libtool checks for this in its AC_PATH_NM.
Unfortunately the code to do this has a pair of interlocking flaws:
- it runs the test by doing an nm of /dev/null. Some platforms
reasonably refuse to do an nm on a device file, but before now this
has only been worked around by assuming that the error message has a
specific textual form emitted by Tru64 nm, and that getting this
error means this is Tru64 nm and that nm -B would work to produce
BSD-format output, even though the test never actually got anything
but an error message out of nm -B. This is fixable by nm'ing *nm
itself* (since we necessarily have a path to it).
- the test is entirely skipped if NM is set in the environment, on the
grounds that the user has overridden the test: but the user cannot
reasonably be expected to know that libtool wants not only nm but
also flags forcing BSD-format output. Worse yet, one such "user" is
the top-level Cygnus configure script, which neither tests for
nor specifies any BSD-format flags. So platforms needing BSD-format
flags always fail to set them when run in a Cygnus tree, breaking
-export-symbols-regex on such platforms. Libtool also needs to
augment $LD on some platforms, but this is done unconditionally,
augmenting whatever the user specified: the nm check should do the
same.
One wrinkle: if the user has overridden $NM, a path might have been
provided: so we use the user-specified path if there was one, and
otherwise do the path search as usual. (If the nm specified doesn't
work, this might lead to a few extra pointless path searches -- but
the test is going to fail anyway, so that's not a problem.)
(Tested with NM unset, and set to nm, /usr/bin/nm, my-nm where my-nm is a
symlink to /usr/bin/nm on the PATH, and /not-on-the-path/my-nm where
*that* is a symlink to /usr/bin/nm.)
ChangeLog:
* libtool.m4 (LT_PATH_NM): Try BSDization flags with a user-provided
NM, if there is one. Run nm on itself, not on /dev/null, to avoid
errors from nms that refuse to work on non-regular files. Remove
other workarounds for this problem. Strip out blank lines from the
nm output.

[ This is my third attempt to add this configure option. The first
version was approved but it came too late in the development cycle.
The second version was also approved, but I had to revert it:
<https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2022-November/607082.html>.
I've fixed the problem (by moving $(PICFLAG) from INTERNAL_CFLAGS to
ALL_COMPILERFLAGS). Another change is that since r13-4536 I no longer
need to touch Makefile.def, so this patch is simplified. ]
This patch implements the --enable-host-pie configure option which
makes the compiler executables PIE. This can be used to enhance
protection against ROP attacks, and can be viewed as part of a wider
trend to harden binaries.
It is similar to the option --enable-host-shared, except that --e-h-s
won't add -shared to the linker flags whereas --e-h-p will add -pie.
It is different from --enable-default-pie because that option just
adds an implicit -fPIE/-pie when the compiler is invoked, but the
compiler itself isn't PIE.
Since r12-5768-gfe7c3ecf, PCH works well with PIE, so there are no PCH
regressions.
When building the compiler, the build process may use various in-tree
libraries; these need to be built with -fPIE so that it's possible to
use them when building a PIE. For instance, when --with-included-gettext
is in effect, intl object files must be compiled with -fPIE. Similarly,
when building in-tree gmp, isl, mpfr and mpc, they must be compiled with
-fPIE.

This change adds the configury bits to activate the build of
shared libs on VxWorks ports configured with --enable-shared,
for libraries variants where this is generally supported (rtp,
code model !large - currently not compatible with -fPIC).
Set lt_cv_deplibs_check_method in libtool.m4, so the build of
libraries know how to establish dependencies. This is useful in
configurations such as aarch64 where proper support of LSE relies
on accurate dependency information between libstdc++ and libgcc_s
to begin with.
Regenerate configure scripts to reflect libtool.m4 change.

* libtool.m4 (*vxworks*): When enable_shared, set dynamic_linker

The change in major version (and the increment from Darwin19 to 20)
caused libtool tests to fail which resulted in incorrect build settings
for shared libraries.
We take this opportunity to sort out the shared undefined symbols state
rather than propagating the current unsound behaviour into a new rev.
This change means that we default to the case that missing symbols are
considered an error, and if one wants to allow this intentionally, the
confiuration for that case should be set appropriately.
Three existing cases need undefined dynamic lookup:
libitm, where there is already a configuration mechanism to add the
flags.
libcc1, where we add simple configuration to add the flags for Darwin.
libsanitizer, where we can add to the existing extra flags.
