Subject: [PATCH 6/7] make xtensa_section_rename () take const char *
Date: Wed, 30 Mar 2016 01:14:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1459300381-19313-7-git-send-email-tbsaunde+binutils@tbsaunde.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1459300381-19313-1-git-send-email-tbsaunde+binutils@tbsaunde.org>

From: Trevor Saunders <tbsaunde+binutils@tbsaunde.org>

Xtensa uses it in several macros passing it a literal string, so its convenient
for the argument type to be const char *.  However some of the code in
symbols.c seems to assume tc_canonicalize_symbol_name () will return a non
const pointer, and some other target's implementations even modify the
argument, so it seems best to return a char * which means casting away const on
the argument when we return it instead of another string.

gas/ChangeLog:

2016-03-29  Trevor Saunders  <tbsaunde+binutils@tbsaunde.org>

	* config/tc-xtensa.c (struct rename_section_struct): Make old_name
	const.
	(xtensa_section_rename): Make argument type const char *.
	* config/tc-xtensa.h (xtensa_section_rename): Adjust.
