Simon Atanasyan 19ab8f850f [yaml2obj][ELF] Add an optional Size field to the YAML section declaration. ... Now the only method to configure ELF section's content and size is to assign a hexadecimal string to the `Content` field. Unfortunately this way is completely useless when you need to declare a really large section. To solve this problem this patch adds one more optional field `Size` to the `RawContentSection` structure. When yaml2obj generates an ELF file it uses the following algorithm: 1. If both `Content` and `Size` fields are missed create an empty section. 2. If only `Content` field is missed take section length from the `Size` field and fill the section by zero. 3. If only `Size` field is missed create a section using data from the `Content` field. 4. If both `Content` and `Size` fields are provided validate that the `Size` value is not less than size of `Content` data. Than take section length from the `Size`, fill beginning of the section by `Content` and the rest by zero. Examples -------- * Create a section 0x10000 bytes long filled by zero Name: .data Type: SHT_PROGBITS Flags: [ SHF_ALLOC ] Size: 0x10000 * Create a section 0x10000 bytes long starting from 'CA' 'FE' 'BA' 'BE' Name: .data Type: SHT_PROGBITS Flags: [ SHF_ALLOC ] Content: CAFEBABE Size: 0x10000 The patch reviewed by Michael Spencer. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@208995 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8		2014-05-16 16:01:00 +00:00
