Groan, sorry, it seems to be a real regression on riscv (in binutils).
But because ld did see failures before buildbot seems to get confused
who to "blame"...

This issue flagged is:

So maybe this testcase accidentially succeeded on riscv, but was

Doh - now I remember what I was trying to fix.  The Risc-V targets
are creating a RISCV_ATTRIBUTES section which gets moved to a new
address when the binary is objcopy'ed.  I was wondering if special
sections like this were expected to survive the copy completely
unchanged, and decided to try dropping them the link entirely.  But
I failed to follow up on why the RISCV_ATTRIBUTES section moves
and - as Alan pointed out - dropping special sections creates new
problems for other targets.

So I need to go back to the Risc-V code in the BFD backend and see
if I can find out why this section is causing problems for objcopy.

Cheers
   Nick

I can't think of any reason the RISC-V attributes would specifically 
trip up on an objcopy that doesn't change anything else.  We've got some 
string-based attributes, but if nothing else changes they should stay 
the same too.  There's also some attribute merging code, but again that 
shouldn't change anything.

That said, I wouldn't be surprised if we have some bug floating around 
there somewhere.  The attributes aren't all that widely used (they sort 
of just store a bunch of stuff that doesn't have much meaning, we've 
gotten burned by backwards compatability there a few times).  I think 
tooling mostly ignores them these days.

LMK if you want Nelson or I to look, but happpy to have the help ;)

Thanks for the offer, but I think that I have already found the problem.
The issue was that the .riscv_attributes section was appearing before
the .text section in BFD's list of sections to allocate to segments.
This was then tripping up on a bug in the fix for PR 31450 which made
the BFD library think that it needed to rework the section to segment
mapping which then meant that the RISCV_ATTRIBUTES segment was moved to
a different address which finally resulted in objcopy producing a changed
binary.  (phew!)

Anyway I am testing a patch locally which I think will fix the problem.

Cheers
   Nick
