[PATCH] gold: add cast to gold_unreachable to workaround gcc giving invalid "no return statement" warnings

[Mikolaj Zalewski]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 370 bytes --]

  I couldn't compile gold today because of the "no return statement"
warning when using gold_unreachable. At
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2007-11/msg01605.html I've found a
workaround that should work for gcc >= 3.4. Such a patch that affects
only gold_unreachable is ok?

I would prefer a patch like this one, which gives us a way to clean it
up a few years down the road.  Could you check whether this solves the
problem for you?  If it does, I'll commit it.  Thanks.

Gold: Testsuite

[Viktor Kutuzov]

Hello everyone,

Sorry for a dumb question.
I'm trying to figure out how to use the gold testsuite for platform-specific things.
It doesn't seem like it fits well.

Could anyone point me to any existing and working unit test for any platform-dependent reallocation, please?

Thanks,
Viktor

It's not a dumb question.  There are two ways to approach this.  The
first is to see if there is any to generate the relocation using
ordinary C code.  If so, write a test case in C which verifies that it
does the right thing, or simply extend the existing basic_test.cc.
basic_test.cc tests various different cases, but it does not test
different type sizes.

If the relocation can not be generated using ordinary C code, then you
have to use AM_CONDITIONAL in configure.ac to generate a new Makefile
conditional, and test it in testsuite/Makefile.am to control use of an
assembler test case.

Re: Gold: Testsuite

[Viktor Kutuzov]

Thanks, Ian,
I'm looking at the configure.ac. The idea is to have a set of asm files and "correct" obj dumps to compare the result with (I'd 
prefer to keep all dependencies inside binutils as much as reasonable).

Is there a "standard" directory structure for the platform specific filees?
Should I create a new "arm" directory under the gold/testsuite and place everything there?

Best regards,
Viktor

To be clear, I do not want to follow the pattern of comparing against
precise objdump results.  My experience with the gas testsuite, which
works that way, is that far too often unrelated changes to the tools
require the testsuite to change.  That makes these tests poor ways to
test functionality.  Developers wind up automatically adjusting the
tests to match the tool output, rather than using the test to actually
verify that the tool output is correct.

In my opinion, a test which can be run in a program is by far the best
approach.  That tests that the tool actually generates working output.
That is why basic_test.cc, and indeed much of the linker testsuite, is
written the way it is.  Of course, that approach only works for a native
linker.

For a cross-linker, testing the output with readelf (not objdump!) is
going to be the only reasonable approach.  But it's important to not try
to match the readelf output precisely, but to instead grep the readelf
output for the necessary output.  Ideally the input would be C/C++ code,
so that the same test can be reused for multiple targets.  Of course in
some cases the input must be assembler code.

For cases where assembler input is required, that seems reasonable.

Hi Ian,

I have been thinking along the same line.

However, I also think that cross-linker is a very important thing to support nicely.
And C/C++ is not the only codegenerator we link. If the same C/C++ code could be generated differently for different platforms, this
could lead to hard-to-catch issues in the unit tests itself.

Anyway, I'll send the unit test patch with the separate e-mail ina minute.

Best regards,
Viktor

Passing both MIN_NO_BITS and MAX_NO_BITS is not the way to go.  What you
are really testing here is that the value must fit in either a signed or
unsigned value.  You should write it like that.  The function should not
be named has_overflow--that overloads an existing function.  The
function needs a comment.

(Of course this relocation stuff should move to generic code anyhow, but
that is not your problem.)

This comment does not make sense as written.  There should be a space
after the "//".  It may be appropriate to warn if the symbol would
normally require a dynamic relocation.  The same may be true in
scan::local.

Testing should_apply_static_reloc here only makes sense if we warn in
scan::local and scan::global.  Otherwise we will in effect silently
ignore the relocation.

Thanks, Ian, for the review.

Please find attached the updated patch.

By the way, I notice that there is a mix of spaces and tabs used in the source code for indents.
I have done my best trying to follow the original stile.
But it might be a formal policy I should follow?

Re: [PATCH Take 2] Gold: Added R_ARM_ABS8 relocation

GNU style is tabs every 8 spaces, and gold should ideally use tabs for
long indents.  However, there are many cases where it uses spaces,
depending upon who wrote the code originally and how their editor was
configured, and that is acceptable.

More generally, there are some pointers to style guides in the README.
gold's style is an attempt to adapt GNU style to C++, or vice-versa.

[Gold] Heads up. Working on interworking

[Viktor Kutuzov]

I'm about to start working on ARM interworking.
Is anybody else working on this?

Thatnks,
Viktor

[GOLD] Heads up. Gold for mingw.

[Viktor Kutuzov]

Hello everyone,

I have started working to make gold build and work for mingw (Windows).
There are 4 areas need to get changed:

1.	The plug-in shared libraries will be plug-in DLLs. This one is easy and straight forward.

2.	Windows memory mapping doesn't fit well the used memory mapping. Mingw does not support mmap/munmap. I think of extracting memory mapping to a separate set of classes (one multi-platform abstract base class and 2 platform-specific implementation classes).

3.	Gathering read is not supported on Windows (unless we want to use overlapped I/O). I think of implementing a Windows-specific readv based on a regular read for now. Later we can make it better if we will want to.

4.	Make files to add a new mingw configuration. This one is also easy and straight forward.

Does anybody else work on this?
Does anybody else interesting in gold for Windows?
Is there a better idea how to do this?

Cheers,
Viktor

Last time I asked I was answered that GOLD was very specific to elf and
when I read announcment :

"gold only supports ELF targets such as GNU/Linux and other free
operating systems.  gold does not support Windows.  There is no
expectation that gold will ever support anything other than ELF
targets."

But I like this quote from Marc Twain : They did not know it was
impossible, so they did it!

That's fine.
I'm targeting the cross-build scenario. Like gold itself is running on Windows to make an elf file for some other platform.

I approved and committed your patch to arm.cc with the following
ChangeLog entry.  I did not commit the patch to the testsuite, pending
further work on the testsuite.

Thanks, and sorry for the long delay.

[PATCH, Take 2] Gold: Added R_ARM_ABS8 relocation unit test

[Viktor Kutuzov]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1935 bytes --]

Hello everyone,

Please find attached the updated patch for the R_ARM_ABS8 relocation unit test.

The patch contains changes for automake system to include testsuite/arm directory to the build as well as a shell unit test script 
for R_ARM_ABS8 relocation along with the needed asm file. The unit tests are testing R_ARM_ABS8 relocation for the follwoing cases:

* static local relocation in a read-only segment;
* static global relocation in a read-only segment;
* static local relocation in a read-write segment;
* static global relocation in a read-write segment;
* static local relocation overflow in a read-only segment;

Hope the patch is not too big.

Best regards,
Viktor

* gold/configure.ac: Added target-dependent (for ARM) testsuite/arm/Makefile
* gold/testsuite/Makefile.am: Included testsuite/arm directory for automake
* gold/testsuite/arm/Makefile.am: Included testsuite/arm directory for automake

* gold/testsuite/arm/reloc_abs_test.sh: Unit test script for R_ARM_ABS*

* gold/testsuite/arm/arm_r_abs8_local.s: Asm for the R_ARM_ABS8 relocation unit test (local reloc)
* gold/testsuite/arm/arm_r_abs8_global.s: Asm for the R_ARM_ABS8 relocation unit test (global reloc)
* gold/testsuite/arm/arm_r_abs8_external.s: Asm for the R_ARM_ABS8 relocation unit test (external symbol)
* gold/testsuite/arm/arm_r_abs8_localrw.s: Asm for the R_ARM_ABS8 relocation unit test (local reloc in a read/write segment)

I appreciate all the hard work you've done here, but this doesn't seem
like the right approach to me.

For standard relocations like 8-bit absolute we can write a reasonably
standard test.  We don't need to write a target dependent test.

I think we can make these tests more robust by using special section
names.

I don't understand your check_relocation_abs test.  As far as I can
tell, what it tests is that the final value of a symbol is the value
in the object file plus the offset of the section in the executable.
It doesn't seem to test the relocation value.

What I'm thinking is something along the lines of the appended,
although that is incomplete.

Ian

Re: [PATCH, Take 2] Gold: Added R_ARM_ABS8 relocation unit test

[Viktor Kutuzov]

Hello Ian,

Thank you for the feedback.

I wasn't able to build that assembler code for ARM with the TOT binutils.
Errors about BFD_RELOC_8_PCREL representation in that object file format.

However, I think I see your point and it looks like it is simpler than my approach.
I'll add the R_ARM_ABS16 relocation and will extend the unit tests for it.
I would also like to have overflows checked as well. So, if you would not mind I'll add this cases to the script.

How does the R_ARM_GOT_PREL look? I didn't find a nice generic way to test it as target independent.
Is it Ok to have it tested  as platform dependent?

>  I don't understand your check_relocation_abs test.

It checked the relocation to be in comply with the spec. The script actually calculates the relocation value using symbol address, 
addend and such from the object file and compares the result with the one produced by the gold.

Best regards,
Viktor

Yes.  I didn't get that far, but I think that it would be nice to have
something table driven here.  It would be something like the (target
dependent) code to generate the reloc and then what the section
contents should look like.  For the section contents it would have to
be possible to write a little expression of some sort.  This isn't
really fleshed out but I think it ought to be possible.

Hello everyone,

Please find attached the updated patch for the R_ARM_ABS8 relocation unit test.

The patch contains changes for automake system to include testsuite/arm directory to the build as well as a shell unit test script 
for R_ARM_ABS8 relocation along with the needed asm file. The unit tests are testing R_ARM_ABS8 relocation for the follwoing cases:

* static local relocation in a read-only segment;
* static global relocation in a read-only segment;
* static local relocation in a read-write segment;
* static global relocation in a read-write segment;
* static local relocation overflow in a read-only segment;

Hope the patch is not too big.

Best regards,
Viktor
