1 Introduction
**************
BFD is a package which allows applications to use the same routines to
operate on object files whatever the object file format. A new object
file format can be supported simply by creating a new BFD back end and
adding it to the library.
BFD is split into two parts: the front end, and the back ends (one
for each object file format).
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* The front end of BFD provides the interface to the user. It
manages memory and various canonical data structures. The front
end also decides which back end to use and when to call back end
routines.
* The back ends provide BFD its view of the real world. Each back
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
end provides a set of calls which the BFD front end can use to
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
maintain its canonical form. The back ends also may keep around
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
information for their own use, for greater efficiency.

File: bfd.info, Node: History, Next: How It Works, Prev: Overview, Up: Overview
1.1 History
===========
One spur behind BFD was the desire, on the part of the GNU 960 team at
Intel Oregon, for interoperability of applications on their COFF and
b.out file formats. Cygnus was providing GNU support for the team, and
was contracted to provide the required functionality.
The name came from a conversation David Wallace was having with
Richard Stallman about the library: RMS said that it would be quite
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
hard--David said "BFD". Stallman was right, but the name stuck.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
At the same time, Ready Systems wanted much the same thing, but for
different object file formats: IEEE-695, Oasys, Srecords, a.out and 68k
coff.
BFD was first implemented by members of Cygnus Support; Steve
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Chamberlain ('sac@cygnus.com'), John Gilmore ('gnu@cygnus.com'), K.
Richard Pixley ('rich@cygnus.com') and David Henkel-Wallace
('gumby@cygnus.com').

File: bfd.info, Node: How It Works, Next: What BFD Version 2 Can Do, Prev: History, Up: Overview
1.2 How To Use BFD
==================
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
To use the library, include 'bfd.h' and link with 'libbfd.a'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
BFD provides a common interface to the parts of an object file for a
calling application.
When an application successfully opens a target file (object,
archive, or whatever), a pointer to an internal structure is returned.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
This pointer points to a structure called 'bfd', described in 'bfd.h'.
Our convention is to call this pointer a BFD, and instances of it within
code 'abfd'. All operations on the target object file are applied as
methods to the BFD. The mapping is defined within 'bfd.h' in a set of
macros, all beginning with 'bfd_' to reduce namespace pollution.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
For example, this sequence does what you would probably expect:
return the number of sections in an object file attached to a BFD
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'abfd'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
#include "bfd.h"
unsigned int number_of_sections (abfd)
bfd *abfd;
{
return bfd_count_sections (abfd);
}
The abstraction used within BFD is that an object file has:
* a header,
* a number of sections containing raw data (*note Sections::),
* a set of relocations (*note Relocations::), and
* some symbol information (*note Symbols::).
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Also, BFDs opened for archives have the additional attribute of an index
and contain subordinate BFDs. This approach is fine for a.out and coff,
but loses efficiency when applied to formats such as S-records and
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
IEEE-695.
File: bfd.info, Node: What BFD Version 2 Can Do, Prev: How It Works, Up: Overview
1.3 What BFD Version 2 Can Do
=============================
When an object file is opened, BFD subroutines automatically determine
the format of the input object file. They then build a descriptor in
memory with pointers to routines that will be used to access elements of
the object file's data structures.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
As different information from the object files is required, BFD reads
from different sections of the file and processes them. For example, a
very common operation for the linker is processing symbol tables. Each
BFD back end provides a routine for converting between the object file's
representation of symbols and an internal canonical format. When the
linker asks for the symbol table of an object file, it calls through a
memory pointer to the routine from the relevant BFD back end which reads
and converts the table into a canonical form. The linker then operates
upon the canonical form. When the link is finished and the linker
writes the output file's symbol table, another BFD back end routine is
called to take the newly created symbol table and convert it into the
chosen output format.

* Canonical format:: The BFD canonical object-file format
File: bfd.info, Node: BFD information loss, Next: Canonical format, Up: What BFD Version 2 Can Do
1.3.1 Information Loss
----------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
_Information can be lost during output._ The output formats supported
by BFD do not provide identical facilities, and information which can be
described in one form has nowhere to go in another format. One example
of this is alignment information in 'b.out'. There is nowhere in an
'a.out' format file to store alignment information on the contained
data, so when a file is linked from 'b.out' and an 'a.out' image is
produced, alignment information will not propagate to the output file.
(The linker will still use the alignment information internally, so the
link is performed correctly).
Another example is COFF section names. COFF files may contain an
unlimited number of sections, each one with a textual section name. If
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
the target of the link is a format which does not have many sections
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
(e.g., 'a.out') or has sections without names (e.g., the Oasys format),
the link cannot be done simply. You can circumvent this problem by
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
describing the desired input-to-output section mapping with the linker
command language.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
_Information can be lost during canonicalization._ The BFD internal
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
canonical form of the external formats is not exhaustive; there are
structures in input formats for which there is no direct representation
internally. This means that the BFD back ends cannot maintain all
possible data richness through the transformation between external to
internal and back to external formats.
This limitation is only a problem when an application reads one
format and writes another. Each BFD back end is responsible for
maintaining as much data as possible, and the internal BFD canonical
form has structures which are opaque to the BFD core, and exported only
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
to the back ends. When a file is read in one format, the canonical form
is generated for BFD and the application. At the same time, the back
end saves away any information which may otherwise be lost. If the data
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
is then written back in the same format, the back end routine will be
able to use the canonical form provided by the BFD core as well as the
information it prepared earlier. Since there is a great deal of
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
commonality between back ends, there is no information lost when linking
or copying big endian COFF to little endian COFF, or 'a.out' to 'b.out'.
When a mixture of formats is linked, the information is only lost from
the files whose format differs from the destination.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
File: bfd.info, Node: Canonical format, Prev: BFD information loss, Up: What BFD Version 2 Can Do
1.3.2 The BFD canonical object-file format
------------------------------------------
The greatest potential for loss of information occurs when there is the
least overlap between the information provided by the source format,
that stored by the canonical format, and that needed by the destination
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
format. A brief description of the canonical form may help you
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
understand which kinds of data you can count on preserving across
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
conversions.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
_files_
Information stored on a per-file basis includes target machine
architecture, particular implementation format type, a demand
pageable bit, and a write protected bit. Information like Unix
magic numbers is not stored here--only the magic numbers' meaning,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
so a 'ZMAGIC' file would have both the demand pageable bit and the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
write protected text bit set. The byte order of the target is
stored on a per-file basis, so that big- and little-endian object
files may be used with one another.
_sections_
Each section in the input file contains the name of the section,
the section's original address in the object file, size and
alignment information, various flags, and pointers into other BFD
data structures.
_symbols_
Each symbol contains a pointer to the information for the object
file which originally defined it, its name, its value, and various
flag bits. When a BFD back end reads in a symbol table, it
relocates all symbols to make them relative to the base of the
section where they were defined. Doing this ensures that each
symbol points to its containing section. Each symbol also has a
varying amount of hidden private data for the BFD back end. Since
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the symbol points to the original file, the private data format for
that symbol is accessible. 'ld' can operate on a collection of
symbols of wildly different formats without problems.
Normal global and simple local symbols are maintained on output, so
an output file (no matter its format) will retain symbols pointing
to functions and to global, static, and common variables. Some
symbol information is not worth retaining; in 'a.out', type
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
information is stored in the symbol table as long symbol names.
This information would be useless to most COFF debuggers; the
linker has command line switches to allow users to throw it away.
There is one word of type information within the symbol, so if the
format supports symbol type information within symbols (for
example, COFF, IEEE, Oasys) and the type is simple enough to fit
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
within one word (nearly everything but aggregates), the information
will be preserved.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
_relocation level_
Each canonical BFD relocation record contains a pointer to the
symbol to relocate to, the offset of the data to relocate, the
section the data is in, and a pointer to a relocation type
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
descriptor. Relocation is performed by passing messages through
the relocation type descriptor and the symbol pointer. Therefore,
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
relocations can be performed on output data using a relocation
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
method that is only available in one of the input formats. For
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
instance, Oasys provides a byte relocation format. A relocation
record requesting this relocation type would point indirectly to a
routine to perform this, so the relocation may be performed on a
byte being written to a 68k COFF file, even though 68k COFF has no
such relocation type.
_line numbers_
Object formats can contain, for debugging purposes, some form of
mapping between symbols, source line numbers, and addresses in the
output file. These addresses have to be relocated along with the
symbol information. Each symbol with an associated list of line
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
number records points to the first record of the list. The head of
a line number list consists of a pointer to the symbol, which
allows finding out the address of the function whose line number is
being described. The rest of the list is made up of pairs: offsets
into the section and line numbers. Any format which can simply
derive this information can pass it successfully between formats
(COFF, IEEE and Oasys).

2.2 Error reporting
===================
Most BFD functions return nonzero on success (check their individual
documentation for precise semantics). On an error, they call
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_set_error' to set an error condition that callers can check by
calling 'bfd_get_error'. If that returns 'bfd_error_system_call', then
check 'errno'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The easiest way to report a BFD error to the user is to use
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_perror'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00

2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
.......................
*Synopsis*
void bfd_set_error (bfd_error_type error_tag, ...);
*Description*
Set the BFD error condition to be ERROR_TAG. If ERROR_TAG is
bfd_error_on_input, then this function takes two more parameters, the
input bfd where the error occurred, and the bfd_error_type error.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00

*Description*
Return a string describing the error ERROR_TAG, or the system error if
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
ERROR_TAG is 'bfd_error_system_call'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00

2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
....................
*Synopsis*
void bfd_perror (const char *message);
*Description*
Print to the standard error stream a string describing the last BFD
error that occurred, or the last system error if the last BFD error was
a system call failure. If MESSAGE is non-NULL and non-empty, the error
string printed is preceded by MESSAGE, a colon, and a space. It is
followed by a newline.
2.2.2 BFD error handler
-----------------------
Some BFD functions want to print messages describing the problem. They
call a BFD error handler function. This function may be overridden by
the program.
2017-04-10 11:32:00 +00:00
The BFD error handler acts like vprintf.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00

....................................
*Synopsis*
void bfd_set_error_program_name (const char *);
*Description*
Set the program name to use when printing a BFD error. This is printed
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
before the error message followed by a colon and space. The string must
not be changed after it is passed to this function.

2.2.3 BFD assert handler
------------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If BFD finds an internal inconsistency, the bfd assert handler is called
with information on the BFD version, BFD source file and line. If this
happens, most programs linked against BFD are expected to want to exit
with an error, or mark the current BFD operation as failed, so it is
recommended to override the default handler, which just calls
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
_bfd_error_handler and continues.
typedef void (*bfd_assert_handler_type) (const char *bfd_formatmsg,
const char *bfd_version,

*Description*
Call the back end associated with the open BFD ABFD and translate the
external form of the relocation information attached to SEC into the
internal canonical form. Place the table into memory at LOC, which has
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
been preallocated, usually by a call to 'bfd_get_reloc_upper_bound'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Returns the number of relocs, or -1 on error.
The SYMS table is also needed for horrible internal magic reasons.

*Description*
Set the flag word in the BFD ABFD to the value FLAGS.
Possible errors are:
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'bfd_error_wrong_format' - The target bfd was not of object format.
* 'bfd_error_invalid_operation' - The target bfd was open for
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
reading.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'bfd_error_invalid_operation' - The flag word contained a bit which
was not applicable to the type of file. E.g., an attempt was made
to set the 'D_PAGED' bit on a BFD format which does not support
demand paging.

int bfd_get_arch_size (bfd *abfd);
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Returns the normalized architecture address size, in bits, as determined
by the object file's format. By normalized, we mean either 32 or 64.
For ELF, this information is included in the header. Use
2015-08-28 15:32:19 +00:00
bfd_arch_bits_per_address for number of bits in the architecture
address.

2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
.................................
*Synopsis*
int bfd_get_sign_extend_vma (bfd *abfd);
*Description*
Indicates if the target architecture "naturally" sign extends an
address. Some architectures implicitly sign extend address values when
they are converted to types larger than the size of an address. For
instance, bfd_get_start_address() will return an address sign extended
to fill a bfd_vma when this is the case.
*Returns*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Returns '1' if the target architecture is known to sign extend
addresses, '0' if the target architecture is known to not sign extend
addresses, and '-1' otherwise.

Convert, like 'strtoul', a numerical expression STRING into a 'bfd_vma'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
integer, and return that integer. (Though without as many bells and
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
whistles as 'strtoul'.) The expression is assumed to be unsigned (i.e.,
positive). If given a BASE, it is used as the base for conversion. A
base of 0 causes the function to interpret the string in hex if a
leading "0x" or "0X" is found, otherwise in octal if a leading zero is
found, otherwise in decimal.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00

*Description*
Return the file size (as read from file system) for the file associated

2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The initial motivation for, and use of, this routine is not so we can
get the exact size of the object the BFD applies to, since that might
not be generally possible (archive members for example). It would be
ideal if someone could eventually modify it so that such results were
guaranteed.
Instead, we want to ask questions like "is this NNN byte sized object
I'm about to try read from file offset YYY reasonable?" As as example
of where we might do this, some object formats use string tables for
which the first 'sizeof (long)' bytes of the table contain the size of
the table itself, including the size bytes. If an application tries to
read what it thinks is one of these string tables, without some way to
validate the size, and for some reason the size is wrong (byte swapping
error, wrong location for the string table, etc.), the only clue is
likely to be a read error when it tries to read the table, or a "virtual
memory exhausted" error when it tries to allocate 15 bazillon bytes of
space for the 15 bazillon byte table it is about to read. This function
at least allows us to answer the question, "is the size reasonable?".

2.4 Memory Usage
================
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
BFD keeps all of its internal structures in obstacks. There is one
obstack per open BFD file, into which the current state is stored. When
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
a BFD is closed, the obstack is deleted, and so everything which has
been allocated by BFD for the closing file is thrown away.
BFD does not free anything created by an application, but pointers
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
into 'bfd' structures become invalid on a 'bfd_close'; for example,
after a 'bfd_close' the vector passed to 'bfd_canonicalize_symtab' is
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
still around, since it has been allocated by the application, but the
data that it pointed to are lost.
The general rule is to not close a BFD until all operations dependent
upon data from the BFD have been completed, or all the data from within
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the file has been copied. To help with the management of memory, there
is a function ('bfd_alloc_size') which returns the number of bytes in
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
obstacks associated with the supplied BFD. This could be used to select
the greediest open BFD, close it to reclaim the memory, perform some
operation and reopen the BFD again, to get a fresh copy of the data
structures.

2.6 Sections
============
The raw data contained within a BFD is maintained through the section
abstraction. A single BFD may have any number of sections. It keeps
hold of them by pointing to the first; each one points to the next in
the list.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Sections are supported in BFD in 'section.c'.

File: bfd.info, Node: Section Input, Next: Section Output, Prev: Sections, Up: Sections
2.6.1 Section input
-------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
When a BFD is opened for reading, the section structures are created and
attached to the BFD.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Each section has a name which describes the section in the outside
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
world--for example, 'a.out' would contain at least three sections,
called '.text', '.data' and '.bss'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Names need not be unique; for example a COFF file may have several
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
sections named '.data'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Sometimes a BFD will contain more than the "natural" number of
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
sections. A back end may attach other sections containing constructor
data, or an application may add a section (using 'bfd_make_section') to
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
the sections attached to an already open BFD. For example, the linker
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
creates an extra section 'COMMON' for each input file's BFD to hold
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
information about common storage.
The raw data is not necessarily read in when the section descriptor
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
is created. Some targets may leave the data in place until a
'bfd_get_section_contents' call is made. Other back ends may read in
all the data at once. For example, an S-record file has to be read once
to determine the size of the data. An IEEE-695 file doesn't contain raw
data in sections, but data and relocation expressions intermixed, so the
data area has to be parsed to get out the data and relocations.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
File: bfd.info, Node: Section Output, Next: typedef asection, Prev: Section Input, Up: Sections
2.6.2 Section output
--------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
To write a new object style BFD, the various sections to be written have
to be created. They are attached to the BFD in the same way as input
sections; data is written to the sections using
'bfd_set_section_contents'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Any program that creates or combines sections (e.g., the assembler
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
and linker) must use the 'asection' fields 'output_section' and
'output_offset' to indicate the file sections to which each section must
be written. (If the section is being created from scratch,
'output_section' should probably point to the section itself and
'output_offset' should probably be zero.)
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The data to be written comes from input sections attached (via
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'output_section' pointers) to the output sections. The output section
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
structure can be considered a filter for the input section: the output
section determines the vma of the output data and the name, but the
input section determines the offset into the output section of the data
to be written.
E.g., to create a section "O", starting at 0x100, 0x123 long,
containing two subsections, "A" at offset 0x0 (i.e., at vma 0x100) and
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
"B" at offset 0x20 (i.e., at vma 0x120) the 'asection' structures would
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
look like:
section name "A"
output_offset 0x00
size 0x20
output_section -----------> section name "O"
| vma 0x100
section name "B" | size 0x123
output_offset 0x20 |
size 0x103 |
output_section --------|
2.6.3 Link orders
-----------------
The data within a section is stored in a "link_order". These are much
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
like the fixups in 'gas'. The link_order abstraction allows a section
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
to grow and shrink within itself.
A link_order knows how big it is, and which is the next link_order
and where the raw data for it is; it also points to a list of
relocations which apply to it.
The link_order is used by the linker to perform relaxing on final
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
code. The compiler creates code which is as big as necessary to make it
work without relaxing, and the user can select whether to relax.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Sometimes relaxing takes a lot of time. The linker runs around the
relocations to see if any are attached to data which can be shrunk, if
so it does it on a link_order by link_order basis.

2.7 Symbols
===========
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
BFD tries to maintain as much symbol information as it can when it moves
information from file to file. BFD passes information to applications
though the 'asymbol' structure. When the application requests the
symbol table, BFD reads the table in the native form and translates
parts of it into the internal format. To maintain more than the
information passed to applications, some targets keep some information
"behind the scenes" in a structure only the particular back end knows
about. For example, the coff back end keeps the original symbol table
structure as well as the canonical structure when a BFD is read in. On
output, the coff back end can reconstruct the output symbol table so
that no information is lost, even information unique to coff which BFD
doesn't know or understand. If a coff symbol table were read, but were
written through an a.out back end, all the coff specific information
would be lost. The symbol table of a BFD is not necessarily read in
until a canonicalize request is made. Then the BFD back end fills in a
table provided by the application with pointers to the canonical
information. To output symbols, the application provides BFD with a
table of pointers to pointers to 'asymbol's. This allows applications
like the linker to output a symbol as it was read, since the "behind the
scenes" information will be still available.

2.7.1 Reading symbols
---------------------
There are two stages to reading a symbol table from a BFD: allocating
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
storage, and the actual reading process. This is an excerpt from an
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
application which reads the symbol table:
long storage_needed;
asymbol **symbol_table;
long number_of_symbols;
long i;
storage_needed = bfd_get_symtab_upper_bound (abfd);
if (storage_needed < 0)
FAIL
if (storage_needed == 0)
return;
symbol_table = xmalloc (storage_needed);
...
number_of_symbols =
bfd_canonicalize_symtab (abfd, symbol_table);
if (number_of_symbols < 0)
FAIL
for (i = 0; i < number_of_symbols; i++)
process_symbol (symbol_table[i]);
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
All storage for the symbols themselves is in an objalloc connected to
the BFD; it is freed when the BFD is closed.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
File: bfd.info, Node: Writing Symbols, Next: Mini Symbols, Prev: Reading Symbols, Up: Symbols
2.7.2 Writing symbols
---------------------
Writing of a symbol table is automatic when a BFD open for writing is
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
closed. The application attaches a vector of pointers to pointers to
symbols to the BFD being written, and fills in the symbol count. The
close and cleanup code reads through the table provided and performs all
the necessary operations. The BFD output code must always be provided
with an "owned" symbol: one which has come from another BFD, or one
which has been created using 'bfd_make_empty_symbol'. Here is an
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
example showing the creation of a symbol table with only one element:
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
#include "sysdep.h"
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
#include "bfd.h"
int main (void)
{
bfd *abfd;
asymbol *ptrs[2];
asymbol *new;
abfd = bfd_openw ("foo","a.out-sunos-big");
bfd_set_format (abfd, bfd_object);
new = bfd_make_empty_symbol (abfd);
new->name = "dummy_symbol";
new->section = bfd_make_section_old_way (abfd, ".text");
new->flags = BSF_GLOBAL;
new->value = 0x12345;
ptrs[0] = new;
ptrs[1] = 0;
bfd_set_symtab (abfd, ptrs, 1);
bfd_close (abfd);
return 0;
}
./makesym
nm foo
00012345 A dummy_symbol
Many formats cannot represent arbitrary symbol information; for
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
instance, the 'a.out' object format does not allow an arbitrary number
of sections. A symbol pointing to a section which is not one of
'.text', '.data' or '.bss' cannot be described.

File: bfd.info, Node: Mini Symbols, Next: typedef asymbol, Prev: Writing Symbols, Up: Symbols
2.7.3 Mini Symbols
------------------
Mini symbols provide read-only access to the symbol table. They use
less memory space, but require more time to access. They can be useful
for tools like nm or objdump, which may have to handle symbol tables of
extremely large executables.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The 'bfd_read_minisymbols' function will read the symbols into memory
in an internal form. It will return a 'void *' pointer to a block of
memory, a symbol count, and the size of each symbol. The pointer is
allocated using 'malloc', and should be freed by the caller when it is
no longer needed.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The function 'bfd_minisymbol_to_symbol' will take a pointer to a
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
minisymbol, and a pointer to a structure returned by
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_make_empty_symbol', and return a 'asymbol' structure. The return
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
value may or may not be the same as the value from
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_make_empty_symbol' which was passed in.

/* A pointer to the BFD which owns the symbol. This information
is necessary so that a back end can work out what additional
information (invisible to the application writer) is carried
with the symbol.

2.8 Archives
============
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
An archive (or library) is just another BFD. It has a symbol table,
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
although there's not much a user program will do with it.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The big difference between an archive BFD and an ordinary BFD is that
the archive doesn't have sections. Instead it has a chain of BFDs that
are considered its contents. These BFDs can be manipulated like any
other. The BFDs contained in an archive opened for reading will all be
opened for reading. You may put either input or output BFDs into an
archive opened for output; they will be handled correctly when the
archive is closed.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Use 'bfd_openr_next_archived_file' to step through the contents of an
archive opened for input. You don't have to read the entire archive if
you don't want to! Read it until you find what you want.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
A BFD returned by 'bfd_openr_next_archived_file' can be closed
manually with 'bfd_close'. If you do not close it, then a second
iteration through the members of an archive may return the same BFD. If
you close the archive BFD, then all the member BFDs will automatically
be closed as well.
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
Archive contents of output BFDs are chained through the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'archive_next' pointer in a BFD. The first one is findable through the
'archive_head' slot of the archive. Set it with 'bfd_set_archive_head'
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
(q.v.). A given BFD may be in only one open output archive at a time.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
As expected, the BFD archive code is more general than the archive
code of any given environment. BFD archives may contain files of
different formats (e.g., a.out and coff) and even different
architectures. You may even place archives recursively into archives!
This can cause unexpected confusion, since some archive formats are
more expressive than others. For instance, Intel COFF archives can
preserve long filenames; SunOS a.out archives cannot. If you move a
file from the first to the second format and back again, the filename
may be truncated. Likewise, different a.out environments have different
conventions as to how they truncate filenames, whether they preserve
directory names in filenames, etc. When interoperating with native
tools, be sure your files are homogeneous.
Beware: most of these formats do not react well to the presence of
spaces in filenames. We do the best we can, but can't always handle
this case due to restrictions in the format of archives. Many Unix
utilities are braindead in regards to spaces and such in filenames
anyway, so this shouldn't be much of a restriction.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Archives are supported in BFD in 'archive.c'.

2.9 File formats
================
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
A format is a BFD concept of high level file contents type. The formats
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
supported by BFD are:
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'bfd_object'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The BFD may contain data, symbols, relocations and debug info.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'bfd_archive'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The BFD contains other BFDs and an optional index.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'bfd_core'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The BFD contains the result of an executable core dump.
2.9.1 File format functions
---------------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
2.9.1.1 'bfd_check_format'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
..........................
*Synopsis*
bfd_boolean bfd_check_format (bfd *abfd, bfd_format format);
*Description*
Verify if the file attached to the BFD ABFD is compatible with the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
format FORMAT (i.e., one of 'bfd_object', 'bfd_archive' or 'bfd_core').
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
If the BFD has been set to a specific target before the call, only
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the named target and format combination is checked. If the target has
not been set, or has been set to 'default', then all the known target
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
backends is interrogated to determine a match. If the default target
matches, it is used. If not, exactly one target must recognize the
file, or an error results.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The function returns 'TRUE' on success, otherwise 'FALSE' with one of
the following error codes:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'bfd_error_invalid_operation' - if 'format' is not one of
'bfd_object', 'bfd_archive' or 'bfd_core'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'bfd_error_system_call' - if an error occured during a read - even
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
some file mismatches can cause bfd_error_system_calls.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'file_not_recognised' - none of the backends recognised the file
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
format.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'bfd_error_file_ambiguously_recognized' - more than one backend
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
recognised the file format.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
2.9.1.2 'bfd_check_format_matches'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
..................................
*Synopsis*
bfd_boolean bfd_check_format_matches
(bfd *abfd, bfd_format format, char ***matching);
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Like 'bfd_check_format', except when it returns FALSE with 'bfd_errno'
set to 'bfd_error_file_ambiguously_recognized'. In that case, if
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
MATCHING is not NULL, it will be filled in with a NULL-terminated list
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
of the names of the formats that matched, allocated with 'malloc'. Then
the user may choose a format and try again.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00

This function sets the file format of the BFD ABFD to the format FORMAT.
If the target set in the BFD does not support the format requested, the
format is invalid, or the BFD is not open for writing, then an error
occurs.

2.10 Relocations
================
BFD maintains relocations in much the same way it maintains symbols:
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
they are left alone until required, then read in en-masse and translated
into an internal form. A common routine 'bfd_perform_relocation' acts
upon the canonical form to do the fixup.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Relocations are maintained on a per section basis, while symbols are
maintained on a per BFD basis.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
All that a back end has to do to fit the BFD interface is to create a
'struct reloc_cache_entry' for each relocation in a particular section,
and fill in the right bits of the structures.

2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Here is a description of each of the fields within an 'arelent':
* 'sym_ptr_ptr'
The symbol table pointer points to a pointer to the symbol associated
with the relocation request. It is the pointer into the table returned
by the back end's 'canonicalize_symtab' action. *Note Symbols::. The
symbol is referenced through a pointer to a pointer so that tools like
the linker can fix up all the symbols of the same name by modifying only
one pointer. The relocation routine looks in the symbol and uses the
base of the section the symbol is attached to and the value of the
symbol as the initial relocation offset. If the symbol pointer is zero,
then the section provided is looked up.
* 'address'
The 'address' field gives the offset in bytes from the base of the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
section data which owns the relocation record to the first byte of
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
relocatable information. The actual data relocated will be relative to
this point; for example, a relocation type which modifies the bottom two
bytes of a four byte word would not touch the first byte pointed to in a
big endian world.
* 'addend'
The 'addend' is a value provided by the back end to be added (!) to
the relocation offset. Its interpretation is dependent upon the howto.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
For example, on the 68k the code:
char foo[];
main()
{
return foo[0x12345678];
}
Could be compiled into:
linkw fp,#-4
moveb @#12345678,d0
extbl d0
unlk fp
rts
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
This could create a reloc pointing to 'foo', but leave the offset in
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
the data, something like:
RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.text]:
offset type value
00000006 32 _foo
00000000 4e56 fffc ; linkw fp,#-4
00000004 1039 1234 5678 ; moveb @#12345678,d0
0000000a 49c0 ; extbl d0
0000000c 4e5e ; unlk fp
0000000e 4e75 ; rts
Using coff and an 88k, some instructions don't have enough space in
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
them to represent the full address range, and pointers have to be loaded
in two parts. So you'd get something like:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
or.u r13,r0,hi16(_foo+0x12345678)
ld.b r2,r13,lo16(_foo+0x12345678)
jmp r1
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
This should create two relocs, both pointing to '_foo', and with
0x12340000 in their addend field. The data would consist of:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.text]:
offset type value
00000002 HVRT16 _foo+0x12340000
00000006 LVRT16 _foo+0x12340000
00000000 5da05678 ; or.u r13,r0,0x5678
00000004 1c4d5678 ; ld.b r2,r13,0x5678
00000008 f400c001 ; jmp r1
The relocation routine digs out the value from the data, adds it to
the addend to get the original offset, and then adds the value of
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'_foo'. Note that all 32 bits have to be kept around somewhere, to cope
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
with carry from bit 15 to bit 16.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
One further example is the sparc and the a.out format. The sparc has
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
a similar problem to the 88k, in that some instructions don't have room
for an entire offset, but on the sparc the parts are created in odd
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
sized lumps. The designers of the a.out format chose to not use the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
data within the section for storing part of the offset; all the offset
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
is kept within the reloc. Anything in the data should be ignored.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
save %sp,-112,%sp
sethi %hi(_foo+0x12345678),%g2
ldsb [%g2+%lo(_foo+0x12345678)],%i0
ret
restore
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Both relocs contain a pointer to 'foo', and the offsets contain junk.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
RELOCATION RECORDS FOR [.text]:
offset type value
00000004 HI22 _foo+0x12345678
00000008 LO10 _foo+0x12345678
00000000 9de3bf90 ; save %sp,-112,%sp
00000004 05000000 ; sethi %hi(_foo+0),%g2
00000008 f048a000 ; ldsb [%g2+%lo(_foo+0)],%i0
0000000c 81c7e008 ; ret
00000010 81e80000 ; restore
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'howto'
The 'howto' field can be imagined as a relocation instruction. It is
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
a pointer to a structure which contains information on what to do with
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
all of the other information in the reloc record and data section. A
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
back end would normally have a relocation instruction set and turn
relocations into pointers to the correct structure on input - but it
would be possible to create each howto field on demand.

2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
ways of reflecting the results of partial linkage in an output file: by
modifying the output data in place, and by modifying the relocation
record. Some native formats (e.g., basic a.out and basic coff) have no
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
way of specifying an addend in the relocation type, so the addend has to
go in the output data. This is no big deal since in these formats the
output data slot will always be big enough for the addend. Complex

When an application wants to create a relocation, but doesn't know what

*Description*
The insides of a reloc code. The idea is that, eventually, there will
be one enumerator for every type of relocation we ever do. Pass one of
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
these values to 'bfd_reloc_type_lookup', and it'll return a howto
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
pointer.
This does mean that the application must determine the correct
enumerator value; you can't get a howto pointer from a random set of
attributes.

These PC-relative relocations are stored as word displacements -
i.e., byte displacements shifted right two bits. The 30-bit word
displacement (<<32_PCREL_S2>> - 32 bits, shifted 2) is used on the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
SPARC. (SPARC tools generally refer to this as <<WDISP30>>.) The
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
signed 16-bit displacement is used on the MIPS, and the 23-bit
displacement is used on the Alpha.
-- : BFD_RELOC_HI22
-- : BFD_RELOC_LO10
High 22 bits and low 10 bits of 32-bit value, placed into lower

For systems that allocate a Global Pointer register, these are
displacements off that register. These relocation types are
handled specially, because the value the register will have is
decided relatively late.

SPU Relocations.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_GPDISP_HI16
Alpha ECOFF and ELF relocations. Some of these treat the symbol or
"addend" in some special way. For GPDISP_HI16 ("gpdisp")
relocations, the symbol is ignored when writing; when reading, it
will be the absolute section symbol. The addend is the
displacement in bytes of the "lda" instruction from the "ldah"
instruction (which is at the address of this reloc).
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_GPDISP_LO16
For GPDISP_LO16 ("ignore") relocations, the symbol is handled as
with GPDISP_HI16 relocs. The addend is ignored when writing the
relocations out, and is filled in with the file's GP value on
reading, for convenience.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_GPDISP
The ELF GPDISP relocation is exactly the same as the GPDISP_HI16
relocation except that there is no accompanying GPDISP_LO16
relocation.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_LITERAL
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_ELF_LITERAL
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_LITUSE
The Alpha LITERAL/LITUSE relocs are produced by a symbol reference;
the assembler turns it into a LDQ instruction to load the address
of the symbol, and then fills in a register in the real
instruction.
The LITERAL reloc, at the LDQ instruction, refers to the .lita
section symbol. The addend is ignored when writing, but is filled
in with the file's GP value on reading, for convenience, as with
the GPDISP_LO16 reloc.
The ELF_LITERAL reloc is somewhere between 16_GOTOFF and
GPDISP_LO16. It should refer to the symbol to be referenced, as
with 16_GOTOFF, but it generates output not based on the position
within the .got section, but relative to the GP value chosen for
the file during the final link stage.
The LITUSE reloc, on the instruction using the loaded address,
gives information to the linker that it might be able to use to
optimize away some literal section references. The symbol is
ignored (read as the absolute section symbol), and the "addend"
indicates the type of instruction using the register: 1 - "memory"
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
fmt insn 2 - byte-manipulation (byte offset reg) 3 - jsr (target of
branch)
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_HINT
The HINT relocation indicates a value that should be filled into
the "hint" field of a jmp/jsr/ret instruction, for possible branch-
prediction logic which may be provided on some processors.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_LINKAGE
The LINKAGE relocation outputs a linkage pair in the object file,
which is filled by the linker.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_CODEADDR
The CODEADDR relocation outputs a STO_CA in the object file, which
is filled by the linker.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_GPREL_HI16
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_GPREL_LO16
The GPREL_HI/LO relocations together form a 32-bit offset from the
GP register.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_BRSGP
Like BFD_RELOC_23_PCREL_S2, except that the source and target must
share a common GP, and the target address is adjusted for
STO_ALPHA_STD_GPLOAD.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_NOP
The NOP relocation outputs a NOP if the longword displacement
between two procedure entry points is < 2^21.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_BSR
The BSR relocation outputs a BSR if the longword displacement
between two procedure entry points is < 2^21.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_LDA
The LDA relocation outputs a LDA if the longword displacement
between two procedure entry points is < 2^16.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ALPHA_BOH
The BOH relocation outputs a BSR if the longword displacement
between two procedure entry points is < 2^21, or else a hint.

PowerPC and PowerPC64 thread-local storage relocations.
-- : BFD_RELOC_I370_D12
IBM 370/390 relocations
-- : BFD_RELOC_CTOR
The type of reloc used to build a constructor table - at the moment
probably a 32 bit wide absolute relocation, but the target can
choose. It generally does map to one of the other relocation
types.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ARM_PCREL_BRANCH
ARM 26 bit pc-relative branch. The lowest two bits must be zero
and are not stored in the instruction.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ARM_PCREL_BLX
ARM 26 bit pc-relative branch. The lowest bit must be zero and is
not stored in the instruction. The 2nd lowest bit comes from a 1
bit field in the instruction.
-- : BFD_RELOC_THUMB_PCREL_BLX
Thumb 22 bit pc-relative branch. The lowest bit must be zero and
is not stored in the instruction. The 2nd lowest bit comes from a
1 bit field in the instruction.
-- : BFD_RELOC_ARM_PCREL_CALL
ARM 26-bit pc-relative branch for an unconditional BL or BLX
instruction.

-- : BFD_RELOC_THUMB_PCREL_BRANCH25
Thumb 7-, 9-, 12-, 20-, 23-, and 25-bit pc-relative branches. The
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
lowest bit must be zero and is not stored in the instruction. Note
that the corresponding ELF R_ARM_THM_JUMPnn constant has an "nn"
one smaller in all cases. Note further that BRANCH23 corresponds
to R_ARM_THM_CALL.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00

AVR relocations to mark the difference of two local symbols. These
are only needed to support linker relaxation and can be ignored
when not relaxing. The field is set to the value of the difference
assuming no relaxation. The relocation encodes the position of the
second symbol so the linker can determine whether to adjust the
field value.

These two relocations are used by the linker to determine which of
the entries in a C++ virtual function table are actually used.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
When the -gc-sections option is given, the linker will zero out the
entries that are not used, so that the code for those functions
need not be included in the output.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
VTABLE_INHERIT is a zero-space relocation used to describe to the
linker the inheritance tree of a C++ virtual function table. The
relocation's symbol should be the parent class' vtable, and the
relocation should be located at the child vtable.
VTABLE_ENTRY is a zero-space relocation that describes the use of a
virtual function table entry. The reloc's symbol should refer to
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the table of the class mentioned in the code. Off of that base, an
offset describes the entry that is being used. For Rela hosts,
this offset is stored in the reloc's addend. For Rel hosts, we are
forced to put this offset in the reloc's section offset.

(bfd *core_bfd, bfd *exec_bfd);
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Return TRUE if the core file attached to CORE_BFD was generated by a run
of the executable file attached to EXEC_BFD. The match is based on
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
executable basenames only.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Note: When not able to determine the core file failing command or the
executable name, we still return TRUE even though we're not sure that
core file and executable match. This is to avoid generating a false
warning in situations where we really don't know whether they match or
not.

2.12 Targets
============
*Description*
Each port of BFD to a different machine requires the creation of a
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
target back end. All the back end provides to the root part of BFD is a
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
structure containing pointers to functions which perform certain low
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
level operations on files. BFD translates the applications's requests
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
through a pointer into calls to the back end routines.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
When a file is opened with 'bfd_openr', its format and target are
unknown. BFD uses various mechanisms to determine how to interpret the
file. The operations performed are:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* Create a BFD by calling the internal routine '_bfd_new_bfd', then
call 'bfd_find_target' with the target string supplied to
'bfd_openr' and the new BFD pointer.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* If a null target string was provided to 'bfd_find_target', look up
the environment variable 'GNUTARGET' and use that as the target
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
string.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* If the target string is still 'NULL', or the target string is
'default', then use the first item in the target vector as the
target type, and set 'target_defaulted' in the BFD to cause
'bfd_check_format' to loop through all the targets. *Note
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
bfd_target::. *Note Formats::.
* Otherwise, inspect the elements in the target vector one by one,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
until a match on target name is found. When found, use it.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* Otherwise return the error 'bfd_error_invalid_target' to
'bfd_openr'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'bfd_openr' attempts to open the file using 'bfd_open_file', and
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
returns the BFD.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Once the BFD has been opened and the target selected, the file format
may be determined. This is done by calling 'bfd_check_format' on the
BFD with a suggested format. If 'target_defaulted' has been set, each
possible target type is tried to see if it recognizes the specified
format. 'bfd_check_format' returns 'TRUE' when the caller guesses
right.

2.12.1 bfd_target
-----------------
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
This structure contains everything that BFD knows about a target. It
includes things like its byte order, name, and which routines to call to
do various operations.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Every BFD points to a target structure with its 'xvec' member.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The macros below are used to dispatch to functions through the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_target' vector. They are used in a number of macros further down
in 'bfd.h', and are also used when calling various routines by hand
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
inside the BFD implementation. The ARGLIST argument must be
parenthesized; it contains all the arguments to the called function.
They make the documentation (more) unpleasant to read, so if someone
wants to fix this and not break the above, please do.
#define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist)
#ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
#undef BFD_SEND
#define BFD_SEND(bfd, message, arglist) \
(((bfd) && (bfd)->xvec && (bfd)->xvec->message) ? \
((*((bfd)->xvec->message)) arglist) : \
(bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
#endif
For operations which index on the BFD format:
#define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
(((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist)
#ifdef DEBUG_BFD_SEND
#undef BFD_SEND_FMT
#define BFD_SEND_FMT(bfd, message, arglist) \
(((bfd) && (bfd)->xvec && (bfd)->xvec->message) ? \
(((bfd)->xvec->message[(int) ((bfd)->format)]) arglist) : \
(bfd_assert (__FILE__,__LINE__), NULL))
#endif
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
This is the structure which defines the type of BFD this is. The
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'xvec' member of the struct 'bfd' itself points here. Each module that
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
implements access to a different target under BFD, defines one of these.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
FIXME, these names should be rationalised with the names of the entry
points which call them. Too bad we can't have one macro to define them
both!

2.13 Architectures
==================
BFD keeps one atom in a BFD describing the architecture of the data
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
attached to the BFD: a pointer to a 'bfd_arch_info_type'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Pointers to structures can be requested independently of a BFD so
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
that an architecture's information can be interrogated without access to
an open BFD.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The architecture information is provided by each architecture
package. The set of default architectures is selected by the macro
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'SELECT_ARCHITECTURES'. This is normally set up in the
'config/TARGET.mt' file of your choice. If the name is not defined,
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
then all the architectures supported are included.
When BFD starts up, all the architectures are called with an
initialize method. It is up to the architecture back end to insert as
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
many items into the list of architectures as it wants to; generally this
would be one for each machine and one for the default case (an item with
a machine field of 0).
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
BFD's idea of an architecture is implemented in 'archures.c'.

2.13.1 bfd_architecture
-----------------------
*Description*
This enum gives the object file's CPU architecture, in a global
sense--i.e., what processor family does it belong to? Another field
indicates which processor within the family is in use. The machine
gives a number which distinguishes different versions of the
architecture, containing, for example, 2 and 3 for Intel i960 KA and
i960 KB, and 68020 and 68030 for Motorola 68020 and 68030.

....................
*Synopsis*
bfd *bfd_fopen (const char *filename, const char *target,
const char *mode, int fd);
*Description*
Open the file FILENAME with the target TARGET. Return a pointer to the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
created BFD. If FD is not -1, then 'fdopen' is used to open the file;
otherwise, 'fopen' is used. MODE is passed directly to 'fopen' or
'fdopen'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Calls 'bfd_find_target', so TARGET is interpreted as by that
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
function.
The new BFD is marked as cacheable iff FD is -1.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If 'NULL' is returned then an error has occured. Possible errors are
'bfd_error_no_memory', 'bfd_error_invalid_target' or 'system_call'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
error.
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
On error, FD is always closed.

*Synopsis*
bfd *bfd_fdopenr (const char *filename, const char *target, int fd);
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_fdopenr' is to 'bfd_fopenr' much like 'fdopen' is to 'fopen'. It
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
opens a BFD on a file already described by the FD supplied.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
When the file is later 'bfd_close'd, the file descriptor will be
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
closed. If the caller desires that this file descriptor be cached by
BFD (opened as needed, closed as needed to free descriptors for other
opens), with the supplied FD used as an initial file descriptor (but
subject to closure at any time), call bfd_set_cacheable(bfd, 1) on the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
returned BFD. The default is to assume no caching; the file descriptor
will remain open until 'bfd_close', and will not be affected by BFD
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
operations on other files.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Possible errors are 'bfd_error_no_memory', 'bfd_error_invalid_target'
and 'bfd_error_system_call'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
On error, FD is closed.

*Description*
Create and return a BFD backed by a read-only STREAM. The STREAM is
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
created using OPEN_FUNC, accessed using PREAD_FUNC and destroyed using
CLOSE_FUNC.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00

2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
function.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Calls OPEN_FUNC (which can call 'bfd_zalloc' and 'bfd_get_filename')
to obtain the read-only stream backing the BFD. OPEN_FUNC either
succeeds returning the non-'NULL' STREAM, or fails returning 'NULL'
(setting 'bfd_error').
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
Calls PREAD_FUNC to request NBYTES of data from STREAM starting at
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
OFFSET (e.g., via a call to 'bfd_read'). PREAD_FUNC either succeeds
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
returning the number of bytes read (which can be less than NBYTES when
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
end-of-file), or fails returning -1 (setting 'bfd_error').
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Calls CLOSE_FUNC when the BFD is later closed using 'bfd_close'.
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
CLOSE_FUNC either succeeds returning 0, or fails returning -1 (setting
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_error').
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
Calls STAT_FUNC to fill in a stat structure for bfd_stat,
bfd_get_size, and bfd_get_mtime calls. STAT_FUNC returns 0 on success,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
or returns -1 on failure (setting 'bfd_error').
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If 'bfd_openr_iovec' returns 'NULL' then an error has occurred.

The filename of the associated debug information file, or NULL if there
is no such file. If the filename was found then the contents of
CRC32_OUT are updated to hold the corresponding CRC32 value for the
file.
The returned filename is allocated with 'malloc'; freeing it is the

*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Searches for a debug information file corresponding to ABFD.
The name of the separate debug info file is returned by the GET
function. This function scans various fixed locations in the
filesystem, including the file tree rooted at DIR. If the INCLUDE_DIRS
parameter is true then the directory components of ABFD's filename will
be included in the searched locations.

char *bfd_follow_build_id_debuglink (bfd *abfd, const char *dir);
*Description*
Takes ABFD and searches it for a .note.gnu.build-id section. If this
section is found, it extracts the value of the NT_GNU_BUILD_ID note,
which should be a hexadecimal value NNNN+NN (for 32+ hex digits). It
then searches the filesystem for a file named .BUILD-ID/NN/NN+NN.DEBUG
in a set of standard locations, including the directory tree rooted at
DIR. The filename of the first matching file to be found is returned.
A matching file should contain a .note.gnu.build-id section with the
same NNNN+NN note as ABFD, although this check is currently not
implemented.
If DIR is NULL, the search will take place starting at the current
directory.
*Returns*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'NULL' on any errors or failure to locate the debug file, otherwise a
2017-04-10 11:32:00 +00:00

2.15.1 Internal functions
-------------------------
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
These routines are used within BFD. They are not intended for export,
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00

2.15.1.3 'bfd_get_size'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
.......................
*Description*
These macros as used for reading and writing raw data in sections; each
access (except for bytes) is vectored through the target format of the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
BFD and mangled accordingly. The mangling performs any necessary endian
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
translations and removes alignment restrictions. Note that types
accepted and returned by these macros are identical so they can be
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
swapped around in macros--for example, 'libaout.h' defines 'GET_WORD' to
either 'bfd_get_32' or 'bfd_get_64'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
In the put routines, VAL must be a 'bfd_vma'. If we are on a system
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
without prototypes, the caller is responsible for making sure that is
true, with a cast if necessary. We don't cast them in the macro
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
definitions because that would prevent 'lint' or 'gcc -Wall' from
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
detecting sins such as passing a pointer. To detect calling these with
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
less than a 'bfd_vma', use 'gcc -Wconversion' on a host with 64 bit
'bfd_vma''s.

except that they are used for removing information for the header

2.16 File caching
=================
The file caching mechanism is embedded within BFD and allows the
application to open as many BFDs as it wants without regard to the
underlying operating system's file descriptor limit (often as low as 20
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
open files). The module in 'cache.c' maintains a least recently used
list of 'bfd_cache_max_open' files, and exports the name
'bfd_cache_lookup', which runs around and makes sure that the required
BFD is open. If not, then it chooses a file to close, closes it and
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
opens the one wanted, returning its file handle.

2.17 Linker Functions
=====================
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The linker uses three special entry points in the BFD target vector. It
is not necessary to write special routines for these entry points when
creating a new BFD back end, since generic versions are provided.
However, writing them can speed up linking and make it use significantly
less runtime memory.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The first routine creates a hash table used by the other routines.
The second routine adds the symbols from an object file to the hash
table. The third routine takes all the object files and links them
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
together to create the output file. These routines are designed so that
the linker proper does not need to know anything about the symbols in
the object files that it is linking. The linker merely arranges the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
sections as directed by the linker script and lets BFD handle the
details of symbols and relocs.
The second routine and third routines are passed a pointer to a
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'struct bfd_link_info' structure (defined in 'bfdlink.h') which holds
information relevant to the link, including the linker hash table (which
was created by the first routine) and a set of callback functions to the
linker proper.
The generic linker routines are in 'linker.c', and use the header
file 'genlink.h'. As of this writing, the only back ends which have
implemented versions of these routines are a.out (in 'aoutx.h') and
ECOFF (in 'ecoff.c'). The a.out routines are used as examples
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
throughout this section.

2.17.1 Creating a linker hash table
-----------------------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The linker routines must create a hash table, which must be derived from
'struct bfd_link_hash_table' described in 'bfdlink.c'. *Note Hash
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Tables::, for information on how to create a derived hash table. This
entry point is called using the target vector of the linker output file.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The '_bfd_link_hash_table_create' entry point must allocate and
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
initialize an instance of the desired hash table. If the back end does
not require any additional information to be stored with the entries in
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the hash table, the entry point may simply create a 'struct
bfd_link_hash_table'. Most likely, however, some additional information
will be needed.
For example, with each entry in the hash table the a.out linker keeps
the index the symbol has in the final output file (this index number is
used so that when doing a relocatable link the symbol index used in the
output file can be quickly filled in when copying over a reloc). The
a.out linker code defines the required structures and functions for a
hash table derived from 'struct bfd_link_hash_table'. The a.out linker
hash table is created by the function
'NAME(aout,link_hash_table_create)'; it simply allocates space for the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
hash table, initializes it, and returns a pointer to it.
When writing the linker routines for a new back end, you will
generally not know exactly which fields will be required until you have
finished. You should simply create a new hash table which defines no
additional fields, and then simply add fields as they become necessary.

2.17.2 Adding symbols to the hash table
---------------------------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The linker proper will call the '_bfd_link_add_symbols' entry point for
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
each object file or archive which is to be linked (typically these are
the files named on the command line, but some may also come from the
linker script). The entry point is responsible for examining the file.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
For an object file, BFD must add any relevant symbol information to the
hash table. For an archive, BFD must determine which elements of the
archive should be used and adding them to the link.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The a.out version of this entry point is
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'NAME(aout,link_add_symbols)'.

2.17.2.1 Differing file formats
...............................
Normally all the files involved in a link will be of the same format,
but it is also possible to link together different format object files,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
and the back end must support that. The '_bfd_link_add_symbols' entry
point is called via the target vector of the file to be added. This has
an important consequence: the function may not assume that the hash
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
table is the type created by the corresponding
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'_bfd_link_hash_table_create' vector. All the '_bfd_link_add_symbols'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
function can assume about the hash table is that it is derived from
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'struct bfd_link_hash_table'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Sometimes the '_bfd_link_add_symbols' function must store some
information in the hash table entry to be used by the '_bfd_final_link'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
function. In such a case the output bfd xvec must be checked to make
sure that the hash table was created by an object file of the same
format.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The '_bfd_final_link' routine must be prepared to handle a hash entry
without any extra information added by the '_bfd_link_add_symbols'
function. A hash entry without extra information will also occur when
the linker script directs the linker to create a symbol. Note that,
regardless of how a hash table entry is added, all the fields will be
initialized to some sort of null value by the hash table entry
initialization function.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
See 'ecoff_link_add_externals' for an example of how to check the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
output bfd before saving information (in this case, the ECOFF external
symbol debugging information) in a hash table entry.
File: bfd.info, Node: Adding symbols from an object file, Next: Adding symbols from an archive, Prev: Differing file formats, Up: Adding Symbols to the Hash Table
2.17.2.2 Adding symbols from an object file
...........................................
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
When the '_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine is passed an object file, it
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
must add all externally visible symbols in that object file to the hash
table. The actual work of adding the symbol to the hash table is
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
normally handled by the function '_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol'.
The '_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine is responsible for reading all the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
symbols from the object file and passing the correct information to
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The '_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine should not use
'bfd_canonicalize_symtab' to read the symbols. The point of providing
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
this routine is to avoid the overhead of converting the symbols into
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
generic 'asymbol' structures.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol' handles the details of combining
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
common symbols, warning about multiple definitions, and so forth. It
takes arguments which describe the symbol to add, notably symbol flags,
a section, and an offset. The symbol flags include such things as
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'BSF_WEAK' or 'BSF_INDIRECT'. The section is a section in the object
file, or something like 'bfd_und_section_ptr' for an undefined symbol or
'bfd_com_section_ptr' for a common symbol.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If the '_bfd_final_link' routine is also going to need to read the
symbol information, the '_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine should save it
somewhere attached to the object file BFD. However, the information
should only be saved if the 'keep_memory' field of the 'info' argument
is TRUE, so that the '-no-keep-memory' linker switch is effective.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The a.out function which adds symbols from an object file is
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'aout_link_add_object_symbols', and most of the interesting work is in
'aout_link_add_symbols'. The latter saves pointers to the hash tables
entries created by '_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol' indexed by symbol
number, so that the '_bfd_final_link' routine does not have to call the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
hash table lookup routine to locate the entry.
File: bfd.info, Node: Adding symbols from an archive, Prev: Adding symbols from an object file, Up: Adding Symbols to the Hash Table
2.17.2.3 Adding symbols from an archive
.......................................
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
When the '_bfd_link_add_symbols' routine is passed an archive, it must
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
look through the symbols defined by the archive and decide which
elements of the archive should be included in the link. For each such
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
element it must call the 'add_archive_element' linker callback, and it
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
must add the symbols from the object file to the linker hash table.
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
(The callback may in fact indicate that a replacement BFD should be
used, in which case the symbols from that BFD should be added to the
linker hash table instead.)
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
In most cases the work of looking through the symbols in the archive
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
should be done by the '_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols' function.
'_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols' is passed a function to call to
2015-08-28 15:32:19 +00:00
make the final decision about adding an archive element to the link and
to do the actual work of adding the symbols to the linker hash table.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If the element is to be included, the 'add_archive_element' linker
callback routine must be called with the element as an argument, and the
element's symbols must be added to the linker hash table just as though
the element had itself been passed to the '_bfd_link_add_symbols'
function.
When the a.out '_bfd_link_add_symbols' function receives an archive,
it calls '_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols' passing
'aout_link_check_archive_element' as the function argument.
'aout_link_check_archive_element' calls 'aout_link_check_ar_symbols'.
If the latter decides to add the element (an element is only added if it
provides a real, non-common, definition for a previously undefined or
common symbol) it calls the 'add_archive_element' callback and then
'aout_link_check_archive_element' calls 'aout_link_add_symbols' to
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
actually add the symbols to the linker hash table - possibly those of a
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
substitute BFD, if the 'add_archive_element' callback avails itself of
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
that option.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The ECOFF back end is unusual in that it does not normally call
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols', because ECOFF archives already
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
contain a hash table of symbols. The ECOFF back end searches the
archive itself to avoid the overhead of creating a new hash table.

2.17.3 Performing the final link
--------------------------------
When all the input files have been processed, the linker calls the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'_bfd_final_link' entry point of the output BFD. This routine is
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
responsible for producing the final output file, which has several
aspects. It must relocate the contents of the input sections and copy
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the data into the output sections. It must build an output symbol table
including any local symbols from the input files and the global symbols
from the hash table. When producing relocatable output, it must modify
the input relocs and write them into the output file. There may also be
object format dependent work to be done.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The linker will also call the 'write_object_contents' entry point
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
when the BFD is closed. The two entry points must work together in
order to produce the correct output file.
The details of how this works are inevitably dependent upon the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
specific object file format. The a.out '_bfd_final_link' routine is
'NAME(aout,final_link)'.

Before the linker calls the '_bfd_final_link' entry point, it sets up

some data structures for the function to use.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The 'input_bfds' field of the 'bfd_link_info' structure will point to
a list of all the input files included in the link. These files are
linked through the 'link.next' field of the 'bfd' structure.
Each section in the output file will have a list of 'link_order'
structures attached to the 'map_head.link_order' field (the 'link_order'
structure is defined in 'bfdlink.h'). These structures describe how to
create the contents of the output section in terms of the contents of
various input sections, fill constants, and, eventually, other types of
information. They also describe relocs that must be created by the BFD
backend, but do not correspond to any input file; this is used to
support -Ur, which builds constructors while generating a relocatable
object file.

2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'link_order' structure should either be handled specially, or it should
be passed to the function '_bfd_default_link_order' which will do the
right thing ('_bfd_default_link_order' is defined in 'linker.c').
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
For efficiency, a 'link_order' of type 'bfd_indirect_link_order'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
whose associated section belongs to a BFD of the same format as the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
output BFD must be handled specially. This type of 'link_order'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
describes part of an output section in terms of a section belonging to
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
one of the input files. The '_bfd_final_link' function should read the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
contents of the section and any associated relocs, apply the relocs to
the section contents, and write out the modified section contents. If
performing a relocatable link, the relocs themselves must also be
modified and written out.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The functions '_bfd_relocate_contents' and '_bfd_final_link_relocate'
provide some general support for performing the actual relocations,
notably overflow checking. Their arguments include information about
the symbol the relocation is against and a 'reloc_howto_type' argument
which describes the relocation to perform. These functions are defined
in 'reloc.c'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The a.out function which handles reading, relocating, and writing
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
section contents is 'aout_link_input_section'. The actual relocation is
done in 'aout_link_input_section_std' and 'aout_link_input_section_ext'.

2.17.3.3 Writing the symbol table
.................................
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The '_bfd_final_link' function must gather all the symbols in the input
files and write them out. It must also write out all the symbols in the
global hash table. This must be controlled by the 'strip' and 'discard'
fields of the 'bfd_link_info' structure.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The local symbols of the input files will not have been entered into
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the linker hash table. The '_bfd_final_link' routine must consider each
input file and include the symbols in the output file. It may be
convenient to do this when looking through the 'link_order' structures,
or it may be done by stepping through the 'input_bfds' list.
The '_bfd_final_link' routine must also traverse the global hash
table to gather all the externally visible symbols. It is possible that
most of the externally visible symbols may be written out when
considering the symbols of each input file, but it is still necessary to
traverse the hash table since the linker script may have defined some
symbols that are not in any of the input files.
The 'strip' field of the 'bfd_link_info' structure controls which
symbols are written out. The possible values are listed in 'bfdlink.h'.
If the value is 'strip_some', then the 'keep_hash' field of the
'bfd_link_info' structure is a hash table of symbols to keep; each
symbol should be looked up in this hash table, and only symbols which
are present should be included in the output file.
If the 'strip' field of the 'bfd_link_info' structure permits local
symbols to be written out, the 'discard' field is used to further
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
controls which local symbols are included in the output file. If the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
value is 'discard_l', then all local symbols which begin with a certain
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
prefix are discarded; this is controlled by the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_is_local_label_name' entry point.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The a.out backend handles symbols by calling
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'aout_link_write_symbols' on each input BFD and then traversing the
global hash table with the function 'aout_link_write_other_symbol'. It
builds a string table while writing out the symbols, which is written to
the output file at the end of 'NAME(aout,final_link)'.

2.18 Hash Tables
================
BFD provides a simple set of hash table functions. Routines are
provided to initialize a hash table, to free a hash table, to look up a
string in a hash table and optionally create an entry for it, and to
traverse a hash table. There is currently no routine to delete an
string from a hash table.
The basic hash table does not permit any data to be stored with a
string. However, a hash table is designed to present a base class from
which other types of hash tables may be derived. These derived types
may store additional information with the string. Hash tables were
implemented in this way, rather than simply providing a data pointer in
a hash table entry, because they were designed for use by the linker
back ends. The linker may create thousands of hash table entries, and
the overhead of allocating private data and storing and following
pointers becomes noticeable.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The basic hash table code is in 'hash.c'.

2.18.1 Creating and freeing a hash table
----------------------------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
To create a hash table, create an instance of a 'struct bfd_hash_table'
(defined in 'bfd.h') and call 'bfd_hash_table_init' (if you know
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
approximately how many entries you will need, the function
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_hash_table_init_n', which takes a SIZE argument, may be used).
'bfd_hash_table_init' returns 'FALSE' if some sort of error occurs.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The function 'bfd_hash_table_init' take as an argument a function to
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
use to create new entries. For a basic hash table, use the function
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_hash_newfunc'. *Note Deriving a New Hash Table Type::, for why you
would want to use a different value for this argument.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_hash_table_init' will create an objalloc which will be used to
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
allocate new entries. You may allocate memory on this objalloc using
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_hash_allocate'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Use 'bfd_hash_table_free' to free up all the memory that has been
allocated for a hash table. This will not free up the 'struct
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
bfd_hash_table' itself, which you must provide.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Use 'bfd_hash_set_default_size' to set the default size of hash table
to use.

2.18.2 Looking up or entering a string
--------------------------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The function 'bfd_hash_lookup' is used both to look up a string in the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
hash table and to create a new entry.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If the CREATE argument is 'FALSE', 'bfd_hash_lookup' will look up a
string. If the string is found, it will returns a pointer to a 'struct
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
bfd_hash_entry'. If the string is not found in the table
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_hash_lookup' will return 'NULL'. You should not modify any of the
fields in the returns 'struct bfd_hash_entry'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If the CREATE argument is 'TRUE', the string will be entered into the
hash table if it is not already there. Either way a pointer to a
'struct bfd_hash_entry' will be returned, either to the existing
structure or to a newly created one. In this case, a 'NULL' return
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
means that an error occurred.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If the CREATE argument is 'TRUE', and a new entry is created, the
COPY argument is used to decide whether to copy the string onto the hash
table objalloc or not. If COPY is passed as 'FALSE', you must be
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
careful not to deallocate or modify the string as long as the hash table
exists.

2.18.3 Traversing a hash table
------------------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The function 'bfd_hash_traverse' may be used to traverse a hash table,
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
calling a function on each element. The traversal is done in a random
order.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_hash_traverse' takes as arguments a function and a generic 'void
*' pointer. The function is called with a hash table entry (a 'struct
bfd_hash_entry *') and the generic pointer passed to
'bfd_hash_traverse'. The function must return a 'boolean' value, which
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
indicates whether to continue traversing the hash table. If the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
function returns 'FALSE', 'bfd_hash_traverse' will stop the traversal
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
and return immediately.

2.18.4 Deriving a new hash table type
-------------------------------------
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Many uses of hash tables want to store additional information which each
entry in the hash table. Some also find it convenient to store
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
additional information with the hash table itself. This may be done
using a derived hash table.
Since C is not an object oriented language, creating a derived hash
table requires sticking together some boilerplate routines with a few
differences specific to the type of hash table you want to create.
An example of a derived hash table is the linker hash table. The
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
structures for this are defined in 'bfdlink.h'. The functions are in
'linker.c'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
You may also derive a hash table from an already derived hash table.
For example, the a.out linker backend code uses a hash table derived
from the linker hash table.

File: bfd.info, Node: Define the Derived Structures, Next: Write the Derived Creation Routine, Prev: Deriving a New Hash Table Type, Up: Deriving a New Hash Table Type
2.18.4.1 Define the derived structures
......................................
You must define a structure for an entry in the hash table, and a
structure for the hash table itself.
The first field in the structure for an entry in the hash table must
be of the type used for an entry in the hash table you are deriving
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
from. If you are deriving from a basic hash table this is 'struct
bfd_hash_entry', which is defined in 'bfd.h'. The first field in the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
structure for the hash table itself must be of the type of the hash
table you are deriving from itself. If you are deriving from a basic
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
hash table, this is 'struct bfd_hash_table'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
For example, the linker hash table defines 'struct
bfd_link_hash_entry' (in 'bfdlink.h'). The first field, 'root', is of
type 'struct bfd_hash_entry'. Similarly, the first field in 'struct
bfd_link_hash_table', 'table', is of type 'struct bfd_hash_table'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
File: bfd.info, Node: Write the Derived Creation Routine, Next: Write Other Derived Routines, Prev: Define the Derived Structures, Up: Deriving a New Hash Table Type
2.18.4.2 Write the derived creation routine
...........................................
You must write a routine which will create and initialize an entry in
the hash table. This routine is passed as the function argument to
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_hash_table_init'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
In order to permit other hash tables to be derived from the hash
table you are creating, this routine must be written in a standard way.
The first argument to the creation routine is a pointer to a hash
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
table entry. This may be 'NULL', in which case the routine should
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
allocate the right amount of space. Otherwise the space has already
been allocated by a hash table type derived from this one.
After allocating space, the creation routine must call the creation
routine of the hash table type it is derived from, passing in a pointer
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
to the space it just allocated. This will initialize any fields used by
the base hash table.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Finally the creation routine must initialize any local fields for the
new hash table type.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Here is a boilerplate example of a creation routine. FUNCTION_NAME
is the name of the routine. ENTRY_TYPE is the type of an entry in the
hash table you are creating. BASE_NEWFUNC is the name of the creation
routine of the hash table type your hash table is derived from.
struct bfd_hash_entry *
FUNCTION_NAME (struct bfd_hash_entry *entry,
struct bfd_hash_table *table,
const char *string)
{
struct ENTRY_TYPE *ret = (ENTRY_TYPE *) entry;
/* Allocate the structure if it has not already been allocated by a
derived class. */
if (ret == NULL)
{
ret = bfd_hash_allocate (table, sizeof (* ret));
if (ret == NULL)
return NULL;
}
/* Call the allocation method of the base class. */
ret = ((ENTRY_TYPE *)
BASE_NEWFUNC ((struct bfd_hash_entry *) ret, table, string));
/* Initialize the local fields here. */
return (struct bfd_hash_entry *) ret;
}
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The creation routine for the linker hash table, which is in 'linker.c',
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
looks just like this example. FUNCTION_NAME is
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'_bfd_link_hash_newfunc'. ENTRY_TYPE is 'struct bfd_link_hash_entry'.
BASE_NEWFUNC is 'bfd_hash_newfunc', the creation routine for a basic
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
hash table.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'_bfd_link_hash_newfunc' also initializes the local fields in a
linker hash table entry: 'type', 'written' and 'next'.

2.18.4.3 Write other derived routines
.....................................
You will want to write other routines for your new hash table, as well.
You will want an initialization routine which calls the
initialization routine of the hash table you are deriving from and
initializes any other local fields. For the linker hash table, this is
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'_bfd_link_hash_table_init' in 'linker.c'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
You will want a lookup routine which calls the lookup routine of the
hash table you are deriving from and casts the result. The linker hash
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
table uses 'bfd_link_hash_lookup' in 'linker.c' (this actually takes an
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
additional argument which it uses to decide how to return the looked up
value).
You may want a traversal routine. This should just call the
traversal routine of the hash table you are deriving from with
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
appropriate casts. The linker hash table uses 'bfd_link_hash_traverse'
in 'linker.c'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
These routines may simply be defined as macros. For example, the
a.out backend linker hash table, which is derived from the linker hash
table, uses macros for the lookup and traversal routines. These are
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'aout_link_hash_lookup' and 'aout_link_hash_traverse' in aoutx.h.

3.1 What to Put Where
=====================
All of BFD lives in one directory.
File: bfd.info, Node: aout, Next: coff, Prev: What to Put Where, Up: BFD back ends
3.2 a.out backends
==================
*Description*
BFD supports a number of different flavours of a.out format, though the
major differences are only the sizes of the structures on disk, and the
shape of the relocation information.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The support is split into a basic support file 'aoutx.h' and other
files which derive functions from the base. One derivation file is
'aoutf1.h' (for a.out flavour 1), and adds to the basic a.out functions
support for sun3, sun4, 386 and 29k a.out files, to create a target jump
vector for a specific target.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
This information is further split out into more specific files for
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
each machine, including 'sunos.c' for sun3 and sun4, 'newsos3.c' for the
Sony NEWS, and 'demo64.c' for a demonstration of a 64 bit a.out format.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The base file 'aoutx.h' defines general mechanisms for reading and
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
writing records to and from disk and various other methods which BFD
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
requires. It is included by 'aout32.c' and 'aout64.c' to form the names
'aout_32_swap_exec_header_in', 'aout_64_swap_exec_header_in', etc.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
As an example, this is what goes on to make the back end for a sun4,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
from 'aout32.c':
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
#define ARCH_SIZE 32
#include "aoutx.h"
Which exports names:
...
aout_32_canonicalize_reloc
aout_32_find_nearest_line
aout_32_get_lineno
aout_32_get_reloc_upper_bound
...
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
from 'sunos.c':
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
#define TARGET_NAME "a.out-sunos-big"
2015-08-28 15:32:19 +00:00
#define VECNAME sparc_aout_sunos_be_vec
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
#include "aoutf1.h"
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
requires all the names from 'aout32.c', and produces the jump vector
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2015-08-28 15:32:19 +00:00
sparc_aout_sunos_be_vec
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The file 'host-aout.c' is a special case. It is for a large set of
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
hosts that use "more or less standard" a.out files, and for which
cross-debugging is not interesting. It uses the standard 32-bit a.out
support routines, but determines the file offsets and addresses of the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
text, data, and BSS sections, the machine architecture and machine type,
and the entry point address, in a host-dependent manner. Once these
values have been determined, generic code is used to handle the object
file.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
When porting it to run on a new system, you must supply:
HOST_PAGE_SIZE
HOST_SEGMENT_SIZE
HOST_MACHINE_ARCH (optional)
HOST_MACHINE_MACHINE (optional)
HOST_TEXT_START_ADDR
HOST_STACK_END_ADDR
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
in the file '../include/sys/h-XXX.h' (for your host). These values,
plus the structures and macros defined in 'a.out.h' on your host system,
will produce a BFD target that will access ordinary a.out files on your
host. To configure a new machine to use 'host-aout.c', specify:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
TDEFAULTS = -DDEFAULT_VECTOR=host_aout_big_vec
TDEPFILES= host-aout.o trad-core.o
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
in the 'config/XXX.mt' file, and modify 'configure.ac' to use the
'XXX.mt' file (by setting "'bfd_target=XXX'") when your configuration is
selected.

3.2.1 Relocations
-----------------
*Description*
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The file 'aoutx.h' provides for both the _standard_ and _extended_ forms
of a.out relocation records.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The standard records contain only an address, a symbol index, and a
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
type field. The extended records (used on 29ks and sparcs) also have a
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
full integer for an addend.
3.2.2 Internal entry points

3.3 coff backends
=================
BFD supports a number of different flavours of coff format. The major
differences between formats are the sizes and alignments of fields in
structures on disk, and the occasional extra field.
Coff in all its varieties is implemented with a few common files and
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
a number of implementation specific files. For example, The 88k bcs
coff format is implemented in the file 'coff-m88k.c'. This file
'#include's 'coff/m88k.h' which defines the external structure of the
coff format for the 88k, and 'coff/internal.h' which defines the
internal structure. 'coff-m88k.c' also defines the relocations used by
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
the 88k format *Note Relocations::.
The Intel i960 processor version of coff is implemented in
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'coff-i960.c'. This file has the same structure as 'coff-m88k.c',
except that it includes 'coff/i960.h' rather than 'coff-m88k.h'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
3.3.1 Porting to a new version of coff
--------------------------------------
The recommended method is to select from the existing implementations
the version of coff which is most like the one you want to use. For
example, we'll say that i386 coff is the one you select, and that your
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
coff flavour is called foo. Copy 'i386coff.c' to 'foocoff.c', copy
'../include/coff/i386.h' to '../include/coff/foo.h', and add the lines
to 'targets.c' and 'Makefile.in' so that your new back end is used.
Alter the shapes of the structures in '../include/coff/foo.h' so that
they match what you need. You will probably also have to add '#ifdef's
to the code in 'coff/internal.h' and 'coffcode.h' if your version of
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
coff is too wild.
You can verify that your new BFD backend works quite simply by
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
building 'objdump' from the 'binutils' directory, and making sure that
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
its version of what's going on and your host system's idea (assuming it
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
has the pretty standard coff dump utility, usually called 'att-dump' or
just 'dump') are the same. Then clean up your code, and send what
you've done to Cygnus. Then your stuff will be in the next release, and
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
you won't have to keep integrating it.
3.3.2 How the coff backend works
--------------------------------
3.3.2.1 File layout
...................
The Coff backend is split into generic routines that are applicable to
any Coff target and routines that are specific to a particular target.
The target-specific routines are further split into ones which are
basically the same for all Coff targets except that they use the
external symbol format or use different values for certain constants.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The generic routines are in 'coffgen.c'. These routines work for any
Coff target. They use some hooks into the target specific code; the
hooks are in a 'bfd_coff_backend_data' structure, one of which exists
for each target.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The essentially similar target-specific routines are in 'coffcode.h'.
This header file includes executable C code. The various Coff targets
first include the appropriate Coff header file, make any special defines
that are needed, and then include 'coffcode.h'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Some of the Coff targets then also have additional routines in the
target source file itself.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
For example, 'coff-i960.c' includes 'coff/internal.h' and
'coff/i960.h'. It then defines a few constants, such as 'I960', and
includes 'coffcode.h'. Since the i960 has complex relocation types,
'coff-i960.c' also includes some code to manipulate the i960 relocs.
This code is not in 'coffcode.h' because it would not be used by any
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
other target.
3.3.2.2 Coff long section names
...............................
In the standard Coff object format, section names are limited to the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
eight bytes available in the 's_name' field of the 'SCNHDR' section
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
header structure. The format requires the field to be NUL-padded, but
not necessarily NUL-terminated, so the longest section names permitted
are a full eight characters.
The Microsoft PE variants of the Coff object file format add an
extension to support the use of long section names. This extension is
defined in section 4 of the Microsoft PE/COFF specification (rev 8.1).
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If a section name is too long to fit into the section header's 's_name'
field, it is instead placed into the string table, and the 's_name'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
field is filled with a slash ("/") followed by the ASCII decimal
representation of the offset of the full name relative to the string
table base.
Note that this implies that the extension can only be used in object
files, as executables do not contain a string table. The standard
specifies that long section names from objects emitted into executable
images are to be truncated.
However, as a GNU extension, BFD can generate executable images that
contain a string table and long section names. This would appear to be
technically valid, as the standard only says that Coff debugging
information is deprecated, not forbidden, and in practice it works,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
although some tools that parse PE files expecting the MS standard format
may become confused; 'PEview' is one known example.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The functionality is supported in BFD by code implemented under the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
control of the macro 'COFF_LONG_SECTION_NAMES'. If not defined, the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
format does not support long section names in any way. If defined, it
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
is used to initialise a flag, '_bfd_coff_long_section_names', and a hook
function pointer, '_bfd_coff_set_long_section_names', in the Coff
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
backend data structure. The flag controls the generation of long
section names in output BFDs at runtime; if it is false, as it will be
by default when generating an executable image, long section names are
truncated; if true, the long section names extension is employed. The
hook points to a function that allows the value of the flag to be
altered at runtime, on formats that support long section names at all;
on other formats it points to a stub that returns an error indication.
2014-09-12 22:14:23 +00:00
With input BFDs, the flag is set according to whether any long
section names are detected while reading the section headers. For a
completely new BFD, the flag is set to the default for the target
format. This information can be used by a client of the BFD library
when deciding what output format to generate, and means that a BFD that
is opened for read and subsequently converted to a writeable BFD and
modified in-place will retain whatever format it had on input.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
If 'COFF_LONG_SECTION_NAMES' is simply defined (blank), or is defined
to the value "1", then long section names are enabled by default; if it
is defined to the value zero, they are disabled by default (but still
accepted in input BFDs). The header 'coffcode.h' defines a macro,
'COFF_DEFAULT_LONG_SECTION_NAMES', which is used in the backends to
initialise the backend data structure fields appropriately; see the
comments for further detail.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
3.3.2.3 Bit twiddling
.....................
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Each flavour of coff supported in BFD has its own header file describing
the external layout of the structures. There is also an internal
description of the coff layout, in 'coff/internal.h'. A major function
of the coff backend is swapping the bytes and twiddling the bits to
translate the external form of the structures into the normal internal
form. This is all performed in the 'bfd_swap'_thing_direction routines.
Some elements are different sizes between different versions of coff; it
is the duty of the coff version specific include file to override the
definitions of various packing routines in 'coffcode.h'. E.g., the size
of line number entry in coff is sometimes 16 bits, and sometimes 32
bits. '#define'ing 'PUT_LNSZ_LNNO' and 'GET_LNSZ_LNNO' will select the
correct one. No doubt, some day someone will find a version of coff
which has a varying field size not catered to at the moment. To port
BFD, that person will have to add more '#defines'. Three of the bit
twiddling routines are exported to 'gdb'; 'coff_swap_aux_in',
'coff_swap_sym_in' and 'coff_swap_lineno_in'. 'GDB' reads the symbol
table on its own, but uses BFD to fix things up. More of the bit
twiddlers are exported for 'gas'; 'coff_swap_aux_out',
'coff_swap_sym_out', 'coff_swap_lineno_out', 'coff_swap_reloc_out',
'coff_swap_filehdr_out', 'coff_swap_aouthdr_out',
'coff_swap_scnhdr_out'. 'Gas' currently keeps track of all the symbol
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
table and reloc drudgery itself, thereby saving the internal BFD
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
overhead, but uses BFD to swap things on the way out, making cross ports
much safer. Doing so also allows BFD (and thus the linker) to use the
same header files as 'gas', which makes one avenue to disaster
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
disappear.
3.3.2.4 Symbol reading
......................
The simple canonical form for symbols used by BFD is not rich enough to
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
keep all the information available in a coff symbol table. The back end
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
gets around this problem by keeping the original symbol table around,
"behind the scenes".
When a symbol table is requested (through a call to
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'bfd_canonicalize_symtab'), a request gets through to
'coff_get_normalized_symtab'. This reads the symbol table from the coff
file and swaps all the structures inside into the internal form. It
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
also fixes up all the pointers in the table (represented in the file by
offsets from the first symbol in the table) into physical pointers to
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
elements in the new internal table. This involves some work since the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
meanings of fields change depending upon context: a field that is a
pointer to another structure in the symbol table at one moment may be
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the size in bytes of a structure at the next. Another pass is made over
the table. All symbols which mark file names ('C_FILE' symbols) are
modified so that the internal string points to the value in the auxent
(the real filename) rather than the normal text associated with the
symbol ('".file"').
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
At this time the symbol names are moved around. Coff stores all
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
symbols less than nine characters long physically within the symbol
table; longer strings are kept at the end of the file in the string
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
table. This pass moves all strings into memory and replaces them with
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
pointers to the strings.
The symbol table is massaged once again, this time to create the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
canonical table used by the BFD application. Each symbol is inspected
in turn, and a decision made (using the 'sclass' field) about the
various flags to set in the 'asymbol'. *Note Symbols::. The generated
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
canonical table shares strings with the hidden internal symbol table.
Any linenumbers are read from the coff file too, and attached to the

3.3.2.5 Symbol writing
......................
Writing a symbol to a coff file which didn't come from a coff file will
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
lose any debugging information. The 'asymbol' structure remembers the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
BFD from which the symbol was taken, and on output the back end makes
sure that the same destination target as source target is present.
When the symbols have come from a coff file then all the debugging
information is preserved.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Symbol tables are provided for writing to the back end in a vector of
pointers to pointers. This allows applications like the linker to
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
accumulate and output large symbol tables without having to do too much
byte copying.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
This function runs through the provided symbol table and patches each
symbol marked as a file place holder ('C_FILE') to point to the next
file place holder in the list. It also marks each 'offset' field in the
list with the offset from the first symbol of the current symbol.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Another function of this procedure is to turn the canonical value
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
form of BFD into the form used by coff. Internally, BFD expects symbol
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
values to be offsets from a section base; so a symbol physically at
0x120, but in a section starting at 0x100, would have the value 0x20.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Coff expects symbols to contain their final value, so symbols have their
values changed at this point to reflect their sum with their owning
section. This transformation uses the 'output_section' field of the
'asymbol''s 'asection' *Note Sections::.

* 'coff_mangle_symbols'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
This routine runs though the provided symbol table and uses the
offsets generated by the previous pass and the pointers generated when
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the symbol table was read in to create the structured hierarchy required
by coff. It changes each pointer to a symbol into the index into the
symbol table of the asymbol.

2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* 'coff_write_symbols'
This routine runs through the symbol table and patches up the symbols
from their internal form into the coff way, calls the bit twiddlers, and
writes out the table to the file.

3.3.2.8 Writing relocations
...........................
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
To write relocations, the back end steps though the canonical relocation
table and create an 'internal_reloc'. The symbol index to use is
removed from the 'offset' field in the symbol table supplied. The
address comes directly from the sum of the section base address and the
relocation offset; the type is dug directly from the howto field. Then
the 'internal_reloc' is swapped into the shape of an 'external_reloc'
and written out to disk.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
3.3.2.9 Reading linenumbers
...........................
Creating the linenumber table is done by reading in the entire coff
linenumber table, and creating another table for internal use.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
A coff linenumber table is structured so that each function is marked
as having a line number of 0. Each line within the function is an
offset from the first line in the function. The base of the line number
information for the table is stored in the symbol associated with the
function.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Note: The PE format uses line number 0 for a flag indicating a new
source file.
The information is copied from the external to the internal table,
and each symbol which marks a function is marked by pointing its...
How does this work ?
3.3.2.10 Reading relocations
............................
Coff relocations are easily transformed into the internal BFD form
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
('arelent').
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Reading a coff relocation table is done in the following stages:
* Read the entire coff relocation table into memory.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* Process each relocation in turn; first swap it from the external to
the internal form.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
* Turn the symbol referenced in the relocation's symbol index into a
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
pointer into the canonical symbol table. This table is the same as
the one returned by a call to 'bfd_canonicalize_symtab'. The back
end will call that routine and save the result if a
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
canonicalization hasn't been done.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
* The reloc index is turned into a pointer to a howto structure, in a
back end specific way. For instance, the 386 and 960 use the
'r_type' to directly produce an index into a howto table vector;
the 88k subtracts a number from the 'r_type' field and creates an
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
addend field.

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

3.5 mmo backend
===============
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
The mmo object format is used exclusively together with Professor Donald
E. Knuth's educational 64-bit processor MMIX. The simulator 'mmix' which
is available at <http://mmix.cs.hm.edu/src/index.html> understands this
format. That package also includes a combined assembler and linker
called 'mmixal'. The mmo format has no advantages feature-wise compared
to e.g. ELF. It is a simple non-relocatable object format with no
support for archives or debugging information, except for symbol value
information and line numbers (which is not yet implemented in BFD). See
<http://mmix.cs.hm.edu/> for more information about MMIX. The ELF format
is used for intermediate object files in the BFD implementation.

3.5.1 File layout
-----------------
The mmo file contents is not partitioned into named sections as with
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
e.g. ELF. Memory areas is formed by specifying the location of the data
that follows. Only the memory area '0x0000...00' to '0x01ff...ff' is
executable, so it is used for code (and constants) and the area
'0x2000...00' to '0x20ff...ff' is used for writable data. *Note mmo
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
section mapping::.
There is provision for specifying "special data" of 65536 different
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
types. We use type 80 (decimal), arbitrarily chosen the same as the ELF
'e_machine' number for MMIX, filling it with section information
normally found in ELF objects. *Note mmo section mapping::.

Contents is entered as 32-bit words, xor:ed over previous contents,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
always zero-initialized. A word that starts with the byte '0x98' forms
a command called a 'lopcode', where the next byte distinguished between
the thirteen lopcodes. The two remaining bytes, called the 'Y' and 'Z'
fields, or the 'YZ' field (a 16-bit big-endian number), are used for
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
various purposes different for each lopcode. As documented in
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
<http://mmix.cs.hm.edu/doc/mmixal.pdf>, the lopcodes are:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_quote'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
0x98000001. The next word is contents, regardless of whether it
starts with 0x98 or not.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_loc'
0x9801YYZZ, where 'Z' is 1 or 2. This is a location directive,
setting the location for the next data to the next 32-bit word (for
Z = 1) or 64-bit word (for Z = 2), plus Y * 2^56. Normally 'Y' is
0 for the text segment and 2 for the data segment. Beware that the
low bits of non- tetrabyte-aligned values are silently discarded
when being automatically incremented and when storing contents (in
contrast to e.g. its use as current location when followed by
lop_fixo et al before the next possibly-quoted tetrabyte contents).
'lop_skip'
0x9802YYZZ. Increase the current location by 'YZ' bytes.
'lop_fixo'
0x9803YYZZ, where 'Z' is 1 or 2. Store the current location as 64
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
bits into the location pointed to by the next 32-bit (Z = 1) or
64-bit (Z = 2) word, plus Y * 2^56.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_fixr'
0x9804YYZZ. 'YZ' is stored into the current location plus 2 - 4 *
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
YZ.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_fixrx'
0x980500ZZ. 'Z' is 16 or 24. A value 'L' derived from the
following 32-bit word are used in a manner similar to 'YZ' in
lop_fixr: it is xor:ed into the current location minus 4 * L. The
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
first byte of the word is 0 or 1. If it is 1, then L = (LOWEST 24
BITS OF WORD) - 2^Z, if 0, then L = (LOWEST 24 BITS OF WORD).
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_file'
0x9806YYZZ. 'Y' is the file number, 'Z' is count of 32-bit words.
Set the file number to 'Y' and the line counter to 0. The next Z *
4 bytes contain the file name, padded with zeros if the count is
not a multiple of four. The same 'Y' may occur multiple times, but
'Z' must be 0 for all but the first occurrence.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_line'
0x9807YYZZ. 'YZ' is the line number. Together with lop_file, it
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
forms the source location for the next 32-bit word. Note that for
each non-lopcode 32-bit word, line numbers are assumed incremented
by one.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_spec'
0x9808YYZZ. 'YZ' is the type number. Data until the next lopcode
other than lop_quote forms special data of type 'YZ'. *Note mmo
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
section mapping::.
Other types than 80, (or type 80 with a content that does not
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
parse) is stored in sections named '.MMIX.spec_data.N' where N is
the 'YZ'-type. The flags for such a sections say not to allocate
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
or load the data. The vma is 0. Contents of multiple occurrences
of special data N is concatenated to the data of the previous
lop_spec Ns. The location in data or code at which the lop_spec
occurred is lost.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_pre'
0x980901ZZ. The first lopcode in a file. The 'Z' field forms the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
length of header information in 32-bit words, where the first word
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
tells the time in seconds since '00:00:00 GMT Jan 1 1970'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_post'
0x980a00ZZ. Z > 32. This lopcode follows after all
content-generating lopcodes in a program. The 'Z' field denotes
the value of 'rG' at the beginning of the program. The following
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
256 - Z big-endian 64-bit words are loaded into global registers
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'$G' ... '$255'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_stab'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
0x980b0000. The next-to-last lopcode in a program. Must follow
immediately after the lop_post lopcode and its data. After this
lopcode follows all symbols in a compressed format (*note
Symbol-table::).
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
'lop_end'
0x980cYYZZ. The last lopcode in a program. It must follow the
lop_stab lopcode and its data. The 'YZ' field contains the number
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
of 32-bit words of symbol table information after the preceding
lop_stab lopcode.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Note that the lopcode "fixups"; 'lop_fixr', 'lop_fixrx' and
'lop_fixo' are not generated by BFD, but are handled. They are
generated by 'mmixal'.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
This trivial one-label, one-instruction file:
:Main TRAP 1,2,3
can be represented this way in mmo:
0x98090101 - lop_pre, one 32-bit word with timestamp.
<timestamp>
0x98010002 - lop_loc, text segment, using a 64-bit address.
Note that mmixal does not emit this for the file above.
0x00000000 - Address, high 32 bits.
0x00000000 - Address, low 32 bits.
0x98060002 - lop_file, 2 32-bit words for file-name.
0x74657374 - "test"
0x2e730000 - ".s\0\0"
0x98070001 - lop_line, line 1.
0x00010203 - TRAP 1,2,3
0x980a00ff - lop_post, setting $255 to 0.
0x00000000
0x00000000
0x980b0000 - lop_stab for ":Main" = 0, serial 1.
0x203a4040 *Note Symbol-table::.
0x10404020
0x4d206120
0x69016e00
0x81000000
0x980c0005 - lop_end; symbol table contained five 32-bit words.

3.5.2 Symbol table format
-------------------------
2015-08-28 15:32:19 +00:00
From mmixal.w (or really, the generated mmixal.tex) in the MMIXware
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
package which also contains the 'mmix' simulator: "Symbols are stored
and retrieved by means of a 'ternary search trie', following ideas of
Bentley and Sedgewick. (See ACM-SIAM Symp. on Discrete Algorithms '8'
(1997), 360-369; R.Sedgewick, 'Algorithms in C' (Reading, Mass.
Addison-Wesley, 1998), '15.4'.) Each trie node stores a character, and
2015-08-28 15:32:19 +00:00
there are branches to subtries for the cases where a given character is
less than, equal to, or greater than the character in the trie. There
also is a pointer to a symbol table entry if a symbol ends at the
current node."
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
So it's a tree encoded as a stream of bytes. The stream of bytes
acts on a single virtual global symbol, adding and removing characters
and signalling complete symbol points. Here, we read the stream and
create symbols at the completion points.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
First, there's a control byte 'm'. If any of the listed bits in 'm'
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
is nonzero, we execute what stands at the right, in the listed order:
(MMO3_LEFT)
0x40 - Traverse left trie.
(Read a new command byte and recurse.)
(MMO3_SYMBITS)
0x2f - Read the next byte as a character and store it in the
current character position; increment character position.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Test the bits of m:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
(MMO3_WCHAR)
0x80 - The character is 16-bit (so read another byte,
merge into current character.
(MMO3_TYPEBITS)
0xf - We have a complete symbol; parse the type, value
and serial number and do what should be done
with a symbol. The type and length information
is in j = (m & 0xf).
(MMO3_REGQUAL_BITS)
j == 0xf: A register variable. The following
byte tells which register.
j <= 8: An absolute symbol. Read j bytes as the
big-endian number the symbol equals.
A j = 2 with two zero bytes denotes an
unknown symbol.
j > 8: As with j <= 8, but add (0x20 << 56)
to the value in the following j - 8
bytes.
Then comes the serial number, as a variant of
uleb128, but better named ubeb128:
Read bytes and shift the previous value left 7
(multiply by 128). Add in the new byte, repeat
until a byte has bit 7 set. The serial number
is the computed value minus 128.
(MMO3_MIDDLE)
0x20 - Traverse middle trie. (Read a new command byte
and recurse.) Decrement character position.
(MMO3_RIGHT)
0x10 - Traverse right trie. (Read a new command byte and
recurse.)
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Let's look again at the 'lop_stab' for the trivial file (*note File
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
layout::).
0x980b0000 - lop_stab for ":Main" = 0, serial 1.
0x203a4040
0x10404020
0x4d206120
0x69016e00
0x81000000
This forms the trivial trie (note that the path between ":" and "M"
is redundant):
203a ":"
40 /
40 /
10 \
40 /
40 /
204d "M"
2061 "a"
2069 "i"
016e "n" is the last character in a full symbol, and
with a value represented in one byte.
00 The value is 0.
81 The serial number is 1.

3.5.3 mmo section mapping
-------------------------
The implementation in BFD uses special data type 80 (decimal) to
encapsulate and describe named sections, containing e.g. debug
information. If needed, any datum in the encapsulation will be quoted
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
using lop_quote. First comes a 32-bit word holding the number of 32-bit
words containing the zero-terminated zero-padded segment name. After
the name there's a 32-bit word holding flags describing the section
type. Then comes a 64-bit big-endian word with the section length (in
bytes), then another with the section start address. Depending on the
type of section, the contents might follow, zero-padded to 32-bit
boundary. For a loadable section (such as data or code), the contents
might follow at some later point, not necessarily immediately, as a
lop_loc with the same start address as in the section description,
followed by the contents. This in effect forms a descriptor that must
be emitted before the actual contents. Sections described this way must
not overlap.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
For areas that don't have such descriptors, synthetic sections are
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
formed by BFD. Consecutive contents in the two memory areas
'0x0000...00' to '0x01ff...ff' and '0x2000...00' to '0x20ff...ff' are
entered in sections named '.text' and '.data' respectively. If an area
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
is not otherwise described, but would together with a neighboring lower
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
area be less than '0x40000000' bytes long, it is joined with the lower
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
area and the gap is zero-filled. For other cases, a new section is
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
formed, named '.MMIX.sec.N'. Here, N is a number, a running count
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
through the mmo file, starting at 0.
A loadable section specified as:
.section secname,"ax"
TETRA 1,2,3,4,-1,-2009
BYTE 80
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
and linked to address '0x4', is represented by the sequence:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
0x98080050 - lop_spec 80
0x00000002 - two 32-bit words for the section name
0x7365636e - "secn"
0x616d6500 - "ame\0"
0x00000033 - flags CODE, READONLY, LOAD, ALLOC
0x00000000 - high 32 bits of section length
0x0000001c - section length is 28 bytes; 6 * 4 + 1 + alignment to 32 bits
0x00000000 - high 32 bits of section address
0x00000004 - section address is 4
0x98010002 - 64 bits with address of following data
0x00000000 - high 32 bits of address
0x00000004 - low 32 bits: data starts at address 4
0x00000001 - 1
0x00000002 - 2
0x00000003 - 3
0x00000004 - 4
0xffffffff - -1
0xfffff827 - -2009
0x50000000 - 80 as a byte, padded with zeros.
Note that the lop_spec wrapping does not include the section
contents. Compare this to a non-loaded section specified as:
.section thirdsec
TETRA 200001,100002
BYTE 38,40
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
This, when linked to address '0x200000000000001c', is represented by:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
0x98080050 - lop_spec 80
0x00000002 - two 32-bit words for the section name
0x7365636e - "thir"
0x616d6500 - "dsec"
0x00000010 - flag READONLY
0x00000000 - high 32 bits of section length
0x0000000c - section length is 12 bytes; 2 * 4 + 2 + alignment to 32 bits
0x20000000 - high 32 bits of address
0x0000001c - low 32 bits of address 0x200000000000001c
0x00030d41 - 200001
0x000186a2 - 100002
0x26280000 - 38, 40 as bytes, padded with zeros
For the latter example, the section contents must not be loaded in
memory, and is therefore specified as part of the special data. The
address is usually unimportant but might provide information for e.g.
the DWARF 2 debugging format.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies
of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
0. PREAMBLE
The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
functional and useful document "free" in the sense of freedom: to
assure everyone the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it,
with or without modifying it, either commercially or
noncommercially. Secondarily, this License preserves for the
author and publisher a way to get credit for their work, while not
being considered responsible for modifications made by others.
This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense.
It complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
license designed for free software.
We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for
free software, because free software needs free documentation: a
free program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms
that the software does. But this License is not limited to
software manuals; it can be used for any textual work, regardless
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
of subject matter or whether it is published as a printed book. We
recommend this License principally for works whose purpose is
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
instruction or reference.
1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
This License applies to any manual or other work, in any medium,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
that contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can
be distributed under the terms of this License. Such a notice
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
grants a world-wide, royalty-free license, unlimited in duration,
to use that work under the conditions stated herein. The
"Document", below, refers to any such manual or work. Any member
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
of the public is a licensee, and is addressed as "you". You accept
the license if you copy, modify or distribute the work in a way
requiring permission under copyright law.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
modifications and/or translated into another language.
A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section
of the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall
subject (or to related matters) and contains nothing that could
fall directly within that overall subject. (Thus, if the Document
is in part a textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not
explain any mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of
historical connection with the subject or with related matters, or
of legal, commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position
regarding them.
The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
titles are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the
notice that says that the Document is released under this License.
If a section does not fit the above definition of Secondary then it
is not allowed to be designated as Invariant. The Document may
contain zero Invariant Sections. If the Document does not identify
any Invariant Sections then there are none.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are
listed, as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice
that says that the Document is released under this License. A
Front-Cover Text may be at most 5 words, and a Back-Cover Text may
be at most 25 words.
A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
represented in a format whose specification is available to the
general public, that is suitable for revising the document
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed
of pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely
available drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text
formatters or for automatic translation to a variety of formats
suitable for input to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise
Transparent file format whose markup, or absence of markup, has
been arranged to thwart or discourage subsequent modification by
readers is not Transparent. An image format is not Transparent if
used for any substantial amount of text. A copy that is not
"Transparent" is called "Opaque".
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
SGML or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming
simple HTML, PostScript or PDF designed for human modification.
Examples of transparent image formats include PNG, XCF and JPG.
Opaque formats include proprietary formats that can be read and
edited only by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which
the DTD and/or processing tools are not generally available, and
the machine-generated HTML, PostScript or PDF produced by some word
processors for output purposes only.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the
material this License requires to appear in the title page. For
works in formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title
Page" means the text near the most prominent appearance of the
work's title, preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
The "publisher" means any person or entity that distributes copies
of the Document to the public.
A section "Entitled XYZ" means a named subunit of the Document
whose title either is precisely XYZ or contains XYZ in parentheses
following text that translates XYZ in another language. (Here XYZ
stands for a specific section name mentioned below, such as
"Acknowledgements", "Dedications", "Endorsements", or "History".)
To "Preserve the Title" of such a section when you modify the
Document means that it remains a section "Entitled XYZ" according
to this definition.
The Document may include Warranty Disclaimers next to the notice
which states that this License applies to the Document. These
Warranty Disclaimers are considered to be included by reference in
this License, but only as regards disclaiming warranties: any other
implication that these Warranty Disclaimers may have is void and
has no effect on the meaning of this License.
2. VERBATIM COPYING
You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License
applies to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you
add no other conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You
may not use technical measures to obstruct or control the reading
or further copying of the copies you make or distribute. However,
you may accept compensation in exchange for copies. If you
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
distribute a large enough number of copies you must also follow the
conditions in section 3.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above,
and you may publicly display copies.
3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
If you publish printed copies (or copies in media that commonly
have printed covers) of the Document, numbering more than 100, and
the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must
enclose the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all
these Cover Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and
Back-Cover Texts on the back cover. Both covers must also clearly
and legibly identify you as the publisher of these copies. The
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
front cover must present the full title with all words of the title
equally prominent and visible. You may add other material on the
covers in addition. Copying with changes limited to the covers, as
long as they preserve the title of the Document and satisfy these
conditions, can be treated as verbatim copying in other respects.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto
adjacent pages.
If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
numbering more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable
Transparent copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with
each Opaque copy a computer-network location from which the general
network-using public has access to download using public-standard
network protocols a complete Transparent copy of the Document, free
of added material. If you use the latter option, you must take
reasonably prudent steps, when you begin distribution of Opaque
copies in quantity, to ensure that this Transparent copy will
remain thus accessible at the stated location until at least one
year after the last time you distribute an Opaque copy (directly or
through your agents or retailers) of that edition to the public.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the Document well before redistributing any large number of copies,
to give them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the
Document.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
4. MODIFICATIONS
You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document
under the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
release the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the
Modified Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing
distribution and modification of the Modified Version to whoever
possesses a copy of it. In addition, you must do these things in
the Modified Version:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
distinct from that of the Document, and from those of previous
versions (which should, if there were any, be listed in the
History section of the Document). You may use the same title
as a previous version if the original publisher of that
version gives permission.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or
entities responsible for authorship of the modifications in
the Modified Version, together with at least five of the
principal authors of the Document (all of its principal
authors, if it has fewer than five), unless they release you
from this requirement.
C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
Modified Version, as the publisher.
D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
adjacent to the other copyright notices.
F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license
notice giving the public permission to use the Modified
Version under the terms of this License, in the form shown in
the Addendum below.
G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant
Sections and required Cover Texts given in the Document's
license notice.
H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
I. Preserve the section Entitled "History", Preserve its Title,
and add to it an item stating at least the title, year, new
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
authors, and publisher of the Modified Version as given on the
Title Page. If there is no section Entitled "History" in the
Document, create one stating the title, year, authors, and
publisher of the Document as given on its Title Page, then add
an item describing the Modified Version as stated in the
previous sentence.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document
for public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and
likewise the network locations given in the Document for
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
previous versions it was based on. These may be placed in the
"History" section. You may omit a network location for a work
that was published at least four years before the Document
itself, or if the original publisher of the version it refers
to gives permission.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
K. For any section Entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Preserve the Title of the section, and preserve in the section
all the substance and tone of each of the contributor
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
acknowledgements and/or dedications given therein.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document, unaltered
in their text and in their titles. Section numbers or the
equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
M. Delete any section Entitled "Endorsements". Such a section
may not be included in the Modified Version.
N. Do not retitle any existing section to be Entitled
"Endorsements" or to conflict in title with any Invariant
Section.
O. Preserve any Warranty Disclaimers.
If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
material copied from the Document, you may at your option designate
some or all of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their
titles to the list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's
license notice. These titles must be distinct from any other
section titles.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
You may add a section Entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text
has been approved by an organization as the authoritative
definition of a standard.
You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text,
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
and a passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of
the list of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage
of Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document
already includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added
by you or by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on
behalf of, you may not add another; but you may replace the old
one, on explicit permission from the previous publisher that added
the old one.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this
License give permission to use their names for publicity for or to
assert or imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
You may combine the Document with other documents released under
this License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
modified versions, provided that you include in the combination all
of the Invariant Sections of all of the original documents,
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
unmodified, and list them all as Invariant Sections of your
combined work in its license notice, and that you preserve all
their Warranty Disclaimers.
The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name
but different contents, make the title of each such section unique
by adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the
original author or publisher of that section if known, or else a
unique number. Make the same adjustment to the section titles in
the list of Invariant Sections in the license notice of the
combined work.
In the combination, you must combine any sections Entitled
"History" in the various original documents, forming one section
Entitled "History"; likewise combine any sections Entitled
"Acknowledgements", and any sections Entitled "Dedications". You
must delete all sections Entitled "Endorsements."
6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other
documents released under this License, and replace the individual
copies of this License in the various documents with a single copy
that is included in the collection, provided that you follow the
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
rules of this License for verbatim copying of each of the documents
in all other respects.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
You may extract a single document from such a collection, and
distribute it individually under this License, provided you insert
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
a copy of this License into the extracted document, and follow this
License in all other respects regarding verbatim copying of that
document.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
separate and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a
storage or distribution medium, is called an "aggregate" if the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
copyright resulting from the compilation is not used to limit the
legal rights of the compilation's users beyond what the individual
works permit. When the Document is included in an aggregate, this
License does not apply to the other works in the aggregate which
are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one half
of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed
on covers that bracket the Document within the aggregate, or the
electronic equivalent of covers if the Document is in electronic
form. Otherwise they must appear on printed covers that bracket
the whole aggregate.
8. TRANSLATION
Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section
4. Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
translation of this License, and all the license notices in the
Document, and any Warranty Disclaimers, provided that you also
include the original English version of this License and the
original versions of those notices and disclaimers. In case of a
disagreement between the translation and the original version of
this License or a notice or disclaimer, the original version will
prevail.
If a section in the Document is Entitled "Acknowledgements",
"Dedications", or "History", the requirement (section 4) to
Preserve its Title (section 1) will typically require changing the
actual title.
9. TERMINATION
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document
except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute it is void,
and will automatically terminate your rights under this License.
However, if you cease all violation of this License, then your
license from a particular copyright holder is reinstated (a)
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
provisionally, unless and until the copyright holder explicitly and
finally terminates your license, and (b) permanently, if the
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
copyright holder fails to notify you of the violation by some
reasonable means prior to 60 days after the cessation.
Moreover, your license from a particular copyright holder is
reinstated permanently if the copyright holder notifies you of the
violation by some reasonable means, this is the first time you have
received notice of violation of this License (for any work) from
that copyright holder, and you cure the violation prior to 30 days
after your receipt of the notice.
Termination of your rights under this section does not terminate
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
the licenses of parties who have received copies or rights from you
under this License. If your rights have been terminated and not
permanently reinstated, receipt of a copy of some or all of the
same material does not give you any rights to use it.

10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions of
the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
<http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/>.
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version
number. If the Document specifies that a particular numbered
version of this License "or any later version" applies to it, you
have the option of following the terms and conditions either of
that specified version or of any later version that has been
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
published (not as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation. If the
Document does not specify a version number of this License, you may
choose any version ever published (not as a draft) by the Free
Software Foundation. If the Document specifies that a proxy can
decide which future versions of this License can be used, that
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
proxy's public statement of acceptance of a version permanently
authorizes you to choose that version for the Document.
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
11. RELICENSING
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
"Massive Multiauthor Collaboration Site" (or "MMC Site") means any
World Wide Web server that publishes copyrightable works and also
provides prominent facilities for anybody to edit those works. A
public wiki that anybody can edit is an example of such a server.
A "Massive Multiauthor Collaboration" (or "MMC") contained in the
site means any set of copyrightable works thus published on the MMC
site.
"CC-BY-SA" means the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0
license published by Creative Commons Corporation, a not-for-profit
corporation with a principal place of business in San Francisco,
California, as well as future copyleft versions of that license
published by that same organization.
"Incorporate" means to publish or republish a Document, in whole or
in part, as part of another Document.
An MMC is "eligible for relicensing" if it is licensed under this
License, and if all works that were first published under this
License somewhere other than this MMC, and subsequently
incorporated in whole or in part into the MMC, (1) had no cover
texts or invariant sections, and (2) were thus incorporated prior
to November 1, 2008.
The operator of an MMC Site may republish an MMC contained in the
site under CC-BY-SA on the same site at any time before August 1,
2009, provided the MMC is eligible for relicensing.
ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
====================================================
To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
the License in the document and put the following copyright and license
notices just after the title page:
Copyright (C) YEAR YOUR NAME.
Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.3
or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
with no Invariant Sections, no Front-Cover Texts, and no Back-Cover
Texts. A copy of the license is included in the section entitled ``GNU
Free Documentation License''.
If you have Invariant Sections, Front-Cover Texts and Back-Cover
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
Texts, replace the "with...Texts." line with this:
2012-03-26 19:18:29 +00:00
with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with
the Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts
being LIST.
If you have Invariant Sections without Cover Texts, or some other
combination of the three, merge those two alternatives to suit the
situation.
If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
2017-10-07 00:16:47 +00:00
recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of free
software license, such as the GNU General Public License, to permit
their use in free software.
