* The readelf tool now has a -L or --lint or --enable-checks option which turns
|
|
|
|
|
on warning messages about possible problems with the file(s) being examined.
|
|
|
|
|
These checks include things like zero-sized sections, which are allowed by
|
|
|
|

the ELF standard but which nevertheless might be of concern if the user
|
|
|
|
|
was expecting them to actually contain something.

* Binutils now supports debuginfod, an HTTP server for distributing
|
|
|
|
|
ELF/DWARF debugging information as well as source code. When built with
|
|
|
|

debuginfod, readelf and objdump can automatically query debuginfod
|
|
|
|
|
servers for separate debug files when they otherwise cannot be found.
|
|
|
|
|
To build binutils with debuginfod, pass --with-debuginfod to configure.
|
|
|
|
|
This requires libdebuginfod, the debuginfod client library. debuginfod
|
|
|

binutils: CTF support for objdump and readelf
This introduces CTF support for objdump and readelf. objdump has the
following new arguments:
--ctf=SECTION: display CTF in the given SECTION
--ctf-parent=SECTION: name of CTF section that is the parent of this section
readelf has the above, and these two as well:
--ctf-symbols=SECTION: name of symbol table section (optional)
--ctf-strings=SECTION: name of string table section (optional)
(objdump can always use BFD machinery to determine the applicable string
and symbol tables automatically, so these arguments are unnecessary.)
Nearly all the work is done by the ctf_dump machinery in libctf: most of
the remaining work is option-processing and section-reading, and thus is
different for objdump and readelf: the minimal amount of similar code
remaining is, in my view, too small to share, particularly given that
objdump uses ctf_bfdopen() and readelf uses ctf_simple_open() since it
doesn't have a bfd.
I am not particularly satisfied with the way resources are freed in
either of these (I was forced to do it at the top level, for lack of
anywhere else to free resources allocated during option processing), but
I can't see any better way to do it without introducing new
infrastructure for no other purpose.
There are essentially arbitrary ordering changes to the Makefile.in's
order of libtool-related stuff that I can't get rid of, but they have no
semantic effect. (It is possible that some hunks of these changes could
be dropped, but that seems a bit risky to me.)

binutils: Add new GNU format mode to `size` utility
The size tool currently defaults to berkeley format output. However,
this output format has a weird quirk, read-only data is counted
against the text sections, not the data sections.
The code offers no real explanation for why this is, but I'm reluctant
to change it for two reasons, first, I'm assuming it probably makes
sense in some case that I'm not thinking of (maybe a target where
sections are not marked executable, and so there's no distinction
between read-only data and code), and second, the code has been this
way for at least 20 years, I worry that changing things now might
cause more confusion than it solves.
This commit then introduces a new output format for the size tool,
this new format displays the results in a similar manor to the
berkeley format, but counts read-only data in the data column, and
only executable sections are counted in the text column.
Given that this is a brand new output format I've gone ahead and
simplified things a little, while the berkeley format displays the
total twice, once in decimal and once in hex, the new display format
just displays the total in decimal. Of course, there's still the
'--radix' option which can be used to display all the results in
hexadecimal or octal.
I've called the new format 'gnu', so '--format=gnu' or '-G' are used
to access it.
binutils/ChangeLog:
* size.c (berkeley_format): Delete.

Add support to readelf and objdump for following links to separate debug information files.
Hi Guys,
I am applying the rather large patch attached to this email to enhance
the readelf and objdump programs so that they now have the ability to
follow links to separate debug info files. (As requested by PR
15152). So for example whereas before we had this output:
$ readelf -wi main.exe
Contents of the .debug_info section:
[...]
<15> DW_AT_comp_dir : (alt indirect string, offset: 0x30c)
[...]
With the new option enabled we get:
$ readelf -wiK main.exe
main.exe: Found separate debug info file: dwz.debug
Contents of the .debug_info section (loaded from main.exe):
[...]
<15> DW_AT_comp_dir : (alt indirect string, offset: 0x30c) /home/nickc/Downloads/dwzm
[...]
The link following feature also means that we can get two lots of
output if the same section exists in both the main file and the
separate debug info file:
$ readelf -wiK main.exe
main.exe: Found separate debug info file: dwz.debug
Contents of the .debug_info section (loaded from main.exe):
[...]
Contents of the .debug_info section (loaded from dwz.debug):
[...]
The patch also adds the ability to display the contents of debuglink
sections:
$ readelf -wk main.exe
Contents of the .gnu_debugaltlink section:
Separate debug info file: dwz.debug
Build-ID (0x14 bytes):
c4 a8 89 8d 64 cf 70 8a 35 68 21 f2 ed 24 45 3e 18 7a 7a 93
Naturally there are long versions of these options (=follow-links and
=links). The documentation has been updated as well, and since both
readelf and objdump use the same set of debug display options, I have
moved the text into a separate file. There are also a couple of new
binutils tests to exercise the new behaviour.
There are a couple of missing features in the current patch however,
although I do intend to address them in follow up submissions:
Firstly the code does not check the build-id inside separate debug
info files when it is searching for a file specified by a
.gnu_debugaltlink section. It just assumes that if the file is there,
then it contains the information being sought.
Secondly I have not checked the DWARF-5 version of these link
features, so there will probably be code to add there.
Thirdly I have only implemented link following for the
DW_FORM_GNU_strp_alt format. Other alternate formats (eg
DW_FORM_GNU_ref_alt) have yet to be implemented.
Lastly, whilst implementing this feature I found it necessary to move
some of the global variables used by readelf (eg section_headers) into
a structure that can be passed around. I have moved all of the global
variables that were necessary to get the patch working, but I need to
complete the operation and move the remaining, file-specific variables
(eg dynamic_strings).
Cheers
Nick

MIPS16e2: Add MIPS16e2 ASE support
Add MIPS16e2 ASE support as per the architecture specification[1],
including in particular:
1. A new ELF ASE flag to mark MIPS16e2 binaries.
2. MIPS16e2 instruction assembly support, including a relaxation update
to use LUI rather than an LI/SLL instruction pair for loading the
high part of 32-bit addresses.
3. MIPS16e2 instruction disassembly support, including updated rules for
extended forms of instructions that are now subdecoded and therefore
do not alias to the original MIPS16 ISA revision instructions even
for encodings that are not valid in the MIPS16e2 instruction set.
Add `-mmips16e2' and `-mno-mips16e2' GAS command-line options and their
corresponding `mips16e2' and `no-mips16e2' settings for the `.set' and
`.module' pseudo-ops. Control the availability of the MT ASE subset of
the MIPS16e2 instruction set with a combination of these controls and
the preexisting MT ASE controls.
Parts of this change by Matthew Fortune and Andrew Bennett.

Support ELF SHF_GNU_MBIND and PT_GNU_MBIND_XXX
Mark an ALLOC section, which should be placed in special memory area,
with SHF_GNU_MBIND. Its sh_info field indicates the special memory
type. GNU_MBIND section names start with ".mbind" so that they are
placed as orphan sections by linker. All input GNU_MBIND sections
with the same sh_type, sh_flags and sh_info are placed in one output
GNU_MBIND section. In executable and shared object, create a
GNU_MBIND segment for each GNU_MBIND section and its segment type is
PT_GNU_MBIND_LO plus the sh_info value. Each GNU_MBIND segment is
aligned at page boundary.
The assembler syntax:
.section .mbind.foo,"adx",%progbits
^ 0: Special memory type.
|
'd' for SHF_GNU_MBIND.
.section .mbind.foo,"adx",%progbits,0x1

objcopy/strip: Add option --remove-relocations=SECTIONPATTERN
The objcopy and strip tools make use of the bfd library to manipulate
the state of the input file (to produce an output file). Within the
input file (for ELF at least), relocations are held within a section,
and so, if the user wanted to remove the relocations, but keep the
section to which the relocations would have been applied, it is tempting
to think that specifying the name of a relocation section to objcopy's
--remove-section option might do what you want, for example:
objcopy --remove-section=.rela.text input.elf output.elf
However, this does not work. The reason is that when the input file is
loaded, relocations are not managed as sections, but are, instead,
loaded as data associated with the section to which the relocations
would be applied. In our example above the relocations in '.rela.text'
are held as data on the section '.text' once 'input.elf' is loaded.
One task that objcopy and strip do is copy the relocations from the
input file to the output file if the section is also being copied from
the input file to the output file.
This commit adds a new command line option for objcopy and strip,
--remove-relocations, which can be used to remove the relocations, while
keeping the section that the relocations would have been applied to, for
example:
objcopy --remove-relocations=.text input.elf output.elf
in this case the section '.text' will appear in both 'input.elf' and
'output.elf', but any relocations in 'input.elf' that apply to '.text'
will not be present in 'output.elf'.
I have also added a special case to the handling of --remove-section
that spots if a user tries to remove a relocation section (currently
this is done by spotting the '.rela.' or '.rel.' prefix) and forwards
the request to --remove-relocations.
As with --remove-section and --only-section the --remove-relocations
option supports the '!' prefix on the section-patterns it takes to allow
for sections to be specifically not matched.
There are tests for all the new functionality.

Properly implement STT_COMMON
The BFD configure option, --enable-elf-stt-common, can't be to used to
verify STT_COMMON implementation with the normal binutils build. Instead,
this patch removes it from BFD. It adds --elf-stt-common=[no|yes] to ELF
assembler/objcopy and adds -z common/-z nocommon to ld.
A configure option, --enable-elf-stt-common, is added to gas to specify
whether ELF assembler should generate common symbols with the STT_COMMON
type by default.
Since BSF_KEEP_G is never used, it is renamed to BSF_ELF_COMMON for ELF
common symbols.

|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-03-03 00:44:34 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Readelf can now display ARM unwind tables (.ARM.exidx / .ARM.extab) using
|
|
|
|
|
the -u / --unwind option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010-01-11 22:45:42 +08:00

|
|
|
|
2010-01-11 20:40:45 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* A new tool - elfedit - has been added to directly manipulate ELF format
|
|
|
|
|
binaries.
|
2009-09-04 16:23:49 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2009-10-23 22:53:57 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add to dlltool .def file feature of aliasing PE internal symbol name by
|
|
|
|
|
'== <ID>' option.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add a new command-line option -a / --addresses to addr2line to display the
|
2009-12-09 20:58:23 +08:00
|
|
|
|
address before function name or source filename.
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
2009-09-04 09:22:19 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add support for delay importing to dlltool. Use the --output-delaylib <file>
|
|
|
|
|
switch to create a delay-import library. The resulting app will load the dll
|
|
|
|
|
as soon as the first function is called. It will link to __delayLoadHelper2()
|
|
|
|
|
from the static delayimp library, which will import LoadLibraryA and
|
|
|
|
|
GetProcAddress from kernel32.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00

|
|
|
number of bytes to be displayed on a single line when disassembling
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
2009-06-24 18:37:35 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Readelf can now display the relocated contents of a section as a sequence
|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
of bytes via the --relocated-dump=<name|number> command-line option.
|
2009-06-24 18:37:35 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* The gprof program has been given a new command-line option:
|
2009-06-12 23:33:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
--external-symbols-table=<filename> which reads in symbols from a specified
|
|
|
|
|
file.
|

|
|
|
|
|
used by gold and uses them to provide basic support for new file formats.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2009-04-30 12:36:49 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* The verilog memory hex dump file format is now supported as an output format
|
|
|
|
|
for objcopy.

|
longer accepts -mbooke32 or -mbooke64 and the disassembler no longer accepts
|
|
|
|
|
-Mbooke32 or -Mbooke64. Instead, -mbooke and -Mbooke should be used.

Changes in 2.19:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2008-04-11 17:04:17 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Added -wL switch to dump decoded contents of .debug_line.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2008-03-28 14:49:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Added support for "thin" archives which contain pathnames pointing to
|
|
|
|
|
object files rather than the files themselves and which contain a
|
|
|
|
|
flattened symbol index for all objects, and archives, which have been
|
|
|
|
|
added to the archive.
|
2015-08-12 19:42:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2008-02-22 17:42:58 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Added -F switch to objdump to include file offsets in the disassembly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-09-18 00:09:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Added -c switch to readelf to allow string dumps of archive symbol index.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-09-15 02:21:09 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Support for SSE5 has been added to the i386 port.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-08-30 21:47:35 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Added -p switch to readelf to allow string dumps of sections.
|
|
|
|

Changes in 2.18:
|
2008-02-22 17:42:58 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2007-08-28 19:56:08 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Resolved 37 coding problems in bfd including static array overruns, null
|
|
|
|
|
pointer dereferences and use of a malloc buffer after it has been freed, as
|
|
|
|
|
revealed by static analysis donated by Coverity, Inc. (http://scan.coverity.com).
|
2002-07-18 19:11:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2007-07-06 00:54:46 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* The binutils sources are now released under version 3 of the GNU General
|
|
|
|
|
Public License.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2007-06-19 21:24:33 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* A new tool "windmc" has been added for some targets. This is a message
|
|
|
|
|
compiler which attempts to be compatible with the MS version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Add codepage support to the windres tool. It now supports many new
|
|
|
|
|
resource types (e.g. MANIFEST, TOOLBAR, etc). The output generation
|
|
|
|
|
for binary files is done now via bfd itself. The endianess problems
|
|
|
|
|
for different hosts are solved. Dumps of .res files can now be
|
|
|
|
|
re-compiled by windres without lossing resources or compilation errors.
|
|
|
|
|
Some problems on dialog resource translations are corrected.
|
2007-06-18 23:30:33 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add --extract-symbol command-line option to objcopy, which will
|
2007-03-02 00:39:42 +08:00
|
|
|
|
strip everything out of an ordinary object file or executable except
|
|
|
|
|
for its symbol table. Files containing just symbols can be useful
|
|
|
|
|
to some OSes.

Changes in 2.17:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-11-14 23:00:30 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add "-x NAME" to readelf in addition to "-x NUMBER".
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-10-04 19:03:38 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add -i and -t switches to cxxfilt. -i disables the display of implementation
|
|
|
|
|
specific extra demangling information (if any) and -t disables the demangling
|
|
|
|
|
of types.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Add support for the "@<file>" syntax to the command lines of all tools, so
|
|
|
|
|
that extra switches can be read from <file>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-10-03 22:40:19 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add "-W/--dwarf" to objdump to display the contents of the DWARF
|
2005-10-04 19:03:38 +08:00
|
|
|
|
debug sections.
|
2005-10-03 22:40:19 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2005-08-11 21:14:29 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add "-t/--section-details" to readelf to display section details.
|
2005-10-04 19:03:38 +08:00
|
|
|
|
"-N/--full-section-name" is deprecated.
|
2005-08-11 21:14:29 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2005-06-06 14:53:07 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* powerpc-linux ld now supports a variant form of PLT and GOT for the security
|
|
|
|
|
conscious. This form will automatically be chosen when ld detects that all
|
|
|
|
|
code in regular object files was generated by gcc -msecure-plt. The old PLT
|
|
|
|
|
and GOT may be forced by a new ld option, --bss-plt.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-05-24 01:45:42 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add "-i/--inlines" to addr2line to print enclosing scope information
|
|
|
|
|
for inlined function chains, back to first non-inlined function.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-04-01 23:09:43 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add "-N/--full-section-name" to readelf to display full section name.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-03-30 00:13:48 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add "-M entry:<addr>" switch to objdump to specify a function entry address
|
|
|
|
|
when disassembling VAX binaries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-03-16 01:45:19 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add "--globalize-symbol <name>" and "--globalize-symbols <filename>" switches
|
|
|
|
|
to objcopy to convert local symbols into global symbols.
|
2015-08-12 19:42:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2007-04-10 16:01:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* gprof now allows input files to have histogram records for
|
2015-08-12 19:42:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
several memory ranges, provided those ranges are disjoint.
|
2005-03-16 01:45:19 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in 2.16:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-06-06 14:53:07 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Add "-g/--section-groups" to readelf to display section groups.
|
2005-04-01 23:09:43 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2004-12-16 21:16:33 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* objcopy recognizes two new options --strip-unneeded-symbol and
|
|
|
|
|
--strip-unneeded-symbols, namely for use together with the wildcard
|
|
|
|
|
matching the original --strip-symbol/--strip-symbols provided, but
|
|
|
|
|
retaining any symbols matching but needed by relocations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-11-03 18:44:45 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* readelf can now display address ranges from .debug_range sections. This
|
|
|
|
|
happens automatically when a DW_AT_range attribute is encountered. The
|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
command-line switch --debug-dump=Ranges (or -wR) can also be used to display
|
2004-11-03 18:44:45 +08:00
|
|
|
|
the contents of the .debug_range section.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-10-08 22:54:04 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* nm and objdump now have a switch "--special-syms" to enable the displaying of
|
|
|
|
|
symbols which the target considers to be special. By default these symbols
|
|
|
|
|
are no longer displayed. Currently the only special symbols are the Mapping
|
|
|
|
|
symbols used by the ARM port to mark transitions between text and data and
|
|
|
|
|
between ARM and THUMB code.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2004-07-13 01:07:55 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* dlltool has a switch "--ext-prefix-alias <prefix>" to generate additional
|
|
|
|
|
import and export symbols with <preifx> prepended to them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in 2.15:
|
|
|
|
|
|
2005-01-20 07:35:26 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* objcopy for MIPS targets now accepts "-M no-aliases" as an option to the
|
2005-01-20 07:43:00 +08:00
|
|
|
|
disassembler to print the "raw" mips instruction mnemonic instead of some
|
2005-01-20 07:35:26 +08:00
|
|
|
|
pseudo instruction name. I.E. print "daddu" or "or" instead of "move",
|
|
|
|
|
"sll" instead of "nop", etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-11-12 01:50:26 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* objcopy and strip can now take wildcard patterns in symbol names specified on
|
|
|
|
|
the command line provided that the --wildcard switch is used to enable them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-08-11 17:15:55 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* readelf can now parse archives.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-07-22 21:33:32 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* objdump now accepts --debugging-tags to print the debug information in a
|
|
|
|
|
format compatible with ctags tool.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-06-26 16:14:10 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* objcopy and strip now accept --only-keep-debug to create a file containing
|
|
|
|
|
those sections that would be stripped out by --strip-debug. The idea is that
|
|
|
|
|
this can be used in conjunction with the --add-gnu-debuglink switch to create
|
|
|
|
|
a two part program distribution - one a stripped executable and the other the
|
|
|
|
|
debugging info.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-06-12 15:23:31 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* objcopy now accepts --add-gnu-debuglink=<file> to insert a .gnu_debuglink
|
|
|
|
|
section into a (presumably stripped) executable. This allows the debug
|
2003-10-27 21:20:32 +08:00
|
|
|
|
information for the file to be held in a separate file.
|
2015-08-12 19:42:37 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
2003-06-04 01:45:49 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* BFD marks the sections .comment and .note as 'n' in the BSD/POSIX
|
|
|
|
|
single-character representation. This can be checked by running nm
|
|
|
|
|
with the -a switch.
|
|
|
|

Changes in 2.14:
|
|
|
|

|
2003-03-25 00:11:46 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Added --info switch to objcopy and strip.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-01-04 10:13:46 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Support for Vitesse IQ2000 added by Red Hat.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-12-23 18:37:38 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Added 'S' encoding to strings to allow the display of 8-bit characters.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-12-13 21:19:44 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Added --prefix-symbols=<text>, --prefix-sections=<text> and
|
|
|
|
|
--prefix-alloc-sections=<text> to objcopy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-12-11 01:48:27 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* readelf can handle the extensions to the DWARF2 spec used by the Unified
|
|
|
|
|
Parallel C compiler.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-12-08 11:38:03 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* BFD no longer declares a "boolean" type, to avoid clashes with other
|
|
|
|
|
headers that declare the same. Users of BFD should replace boolean,
|
|
|
|
|
false and true, with int, 0 and 1, or define their own boolean type.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-07-18 19:11:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Support for IP2K added by Denis Chertykov.

Changes in 2.13:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

* Support for the Fujitsu FRV architecture added by Red Hat. Models for FR400
|
|
|
|
|
and FR500 included.

|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-02-15 12:04:03 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Support for Don Knuth's MMIX, by Hans-Peter Nilsson.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2002-01-25 23:37:04 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* size: Add --totals to display summary of sizes (Berkeley format only).
|
|
|
|
|
|
2001-09-26 00:44:19 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* readelf: Add --wide option to not break section header or segment listing
|
|
|
|
|
lines to fit into 80 columns.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2001-09-14 19:32:25 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* strings: Add --encoding to display wide character strings. By Markus Kuhn.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2001-07-31 21:49:39 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* objcopy: Add --rename-section to change section names.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2001-07-05 15:49:05 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* readelf: Support added for DWARF 2.1 extensions. Support added for
|
|
|
|
|
displaying the contents of .debug.macinfo sections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* New command-line switches added to objcopy to allow symbols to be kept as
|
2001-05-30 18:46:28 +08:00
|
|
|
|
global symbols, and also to specify files containing lists of such symbols.

|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* New command-line switch to objcopy -B (or --binary-architecture) which sets
|
2001-06-09 10:15:49 +08:00
|
|
|
|
the architecture of the output file to the given argument. This option only
|
2001-03-13 08:08:35 +08:00
|
|
|
|
makes sense, if the input target is binary. Otherwise it is ignored.

|
|
|
2001-06-09 10:15:49 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* Support for 64-bit ELF on HPPA.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* New command-line switch to objdump --file-start-context which shows the
|
2000-02-09 02:38:13 +08:00
|
|
|
|
entire file contents up to the source line first encountered for a given

|
2018-07-02 18:18:24 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* New command-line switch to objdump -M (or --disassembler-options) which takes
|
1999-06-16 10:24:36 +08:00
|
|
|
|
a parameter which can then be interpreted on a per-target basis by the

disassembler. Used by ARM targets to select register name sets, ISA, APCS or
|
|
|
|
|
raw verions.

|
|
|
1999-05-28 04:48:12 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* objdump support for -mi386:intel which causes disassembly to be displayed
|
|
|
|
|
with intel syntax.
|
1999-05-03 15:29:11 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* New program: readelf. This displays the contents of ELF format files,
|
|
|
|
|
regardless of target machine.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* objcopy now takes --change-section-lma, --change-section-vma, and
|
|
|
|
|
--change-section-address options. The old --adjust-section-vma option is
|
|
|
|
|
equivalent to --change-section-address. The other --adjust-* options are now
|
|
|
|
|
renamed to --change-*, although --adjust-* continues to work.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2000-04-05 11:43:56 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* objcopy has a --redefine-sym option that lets you rename symbols.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* objcopy now takes a -j/--only-section option to copy only the specified
|
|
|
|
|
sections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1999-05-03 15:29:11 +08:00
|
|
|
|
* dlltool now supports the IMPORTS command.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* dlltool now takes --export-all-symbols, --no-export-all-symbols,
|
|
|
|
|
--exclude-symbols, and --no-default-excludes options.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in binutils 2.9:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added windres program, which can be used to manipulate resources in WIN32
|
|
|
|
|
files as used on Windows 95 and Windows NT.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The objcopy --gap-fill and --pad-to options operate on the LMA rather than
|
|
|
|
|
the VMA of the sections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added S modifier to ar to not build a symbol table.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in binutils 2.8:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The objdump disassembly format has been changed, and hopefully improved. Use
|
|
|
|
|
the new --prefix-addresses option to get the old format. There are also new
|
|
|
|
|
--disassemble-zeroes and --no-show-raw-insn options which affect disassembler
|
|
|
|
|
output.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Formats may now be specified as configuration triplets. For example,
|
|
|
|
|
objdump -b i386-pc-linux. The triplets are not passed through config.sub,
|
|
|
|
|
so they must be in canonical form.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added new addr2line program. This uses the debugging information to convert
|
|
|
|
|
an address into a file name and line number within a program.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --change-leading-char argument to objcopy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --weaken argument to objcopy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* objdump --dynamic-reloc now works on ELF executables and shared libraries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --adjust-vma option to objdump.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added -C/--demangle option to objdump.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added -p/--preserve-dates option to strip and objcopy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in binutils 2.7:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --enable-shared and --enable-commonbfdlib options to configure.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --debugging argument to objdump and objcopy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --defined-only argument to nm.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --remove-leading-char argument to objcopy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The objdump --line-numbers option is now meaningful with --reloc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --line-numbers option to nm.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --endian/-EB/-EL option to objdump.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added support for Alpha OpenVMS/AXP.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in binutils 2.6:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added -N/--strip-symbol and -K/--keep-symbol arguments to strip and objcopy.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added several arguments to objcopy to provide some control over how the new
|
|
|
|
|
file is laid out in memory. Also added binary output format to BFD to permit
|
|
|
|
|
generating plain binary files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --start-address and --stop-address options to objdump.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ar and ranlib now work on AIX. The tools are now built by default on AIX.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in binutils 2.5:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Changed objdump -dr to dump the relocs interspersed with the assembly
|
2003-06-25 14:40:27 +08:00
|
|
|
|
listing, for a more useful listing of relocatable files.
|
1999-05-03 15:29:11 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Changed objdump -d/--disassemble to only disassemble SEC_CODE sections.
|
|
|
|
|
Added -D/--disassemble-all option to disassemble all sections.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Added --size-sort option to nm.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* strip and objcopy should now be able to handle dynamically linked ELF
|
|
|
|
|
executables.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in binutils 2.4:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Support for HP-PA (by Jeff Law), i386 Mach (by David Mackenzie), RS/6000 and
|
|
|
|
|
PowerPC (except ar and ranlib; by Ian Taylor).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Support for Irix 5.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Programs `strip' and `objcopy' will not attempt to write dynamically linked
|
|
|
|
|
ELF output files, since BFD currently can't create them properly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in binutils 2.3:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* A new --stabs argument has been added to objdump to dump stabs sections in
|
|
|
|
|
ELF and COFF files.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* A new program, nlmconv, has been added. It can convert object files into
|
|
|
|
|
Novell NetWare Loadable Modules.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The strings program has been added.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in binutils 2.2:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The 'copy' program has been renamed to 'objcopy', for consistency with
|
|
|
|
|
'objdump', and because 'copy' might more plausibly be used as a synonym for
|
|
|
|
|
'cp'.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The new stand-alone program c++filt is a filter that converts encoded
|
|
|
|
|
(mangled) C++ assembly-level identifiers to user-level names. (Note: This
|
|
|
|
|
may get moved to the gcc distribution.)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* nm -o on an archive now prefixes each line with the archive name, matching
|
|
|
|
|
the output from BSD nm.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ar (and ld) can now read (but not write) BSD4.4-style archives.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* New support for H8500, Z8000, and the Hitach SH.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Dis-assembler interface changed to allow sharing with gdb.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* There is new Elf code, but it is not yet ready for general use.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* There is the beginnings of a test suite.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Changes in binutils 2.1:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* There is now support for writing ECOFF files, so ld and the other utilities
|
|
|
|
|
should work on Risc/Ultrix and Irix. Please let us know how well this works.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* ar now automatically creates a symbol table (a __.SYMDEF member, in the BSD
|
|
|
|
|
version), if there are any object files in the archive. So running ranlib is
|
|
|
|
|
now redundant (unless the non-standard q command is used). This is required
|
|
|
|
|
for Posix.2 conformance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The archive-reading code now reads both BSD-style and SYSV-style archives
|
|
|
|
|
independently of the selected target format. This is to encourage people to
|
|
|
|
|
switch to SYSV-format, which has a number of advantages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The strip and copy programs now have options to remove debug-symbols only
|
|
|
|
|
and/or local symbols only. They now also support long options.
