This patch adds support for EF_BPF_CPUVER bits in the ELF
machine-dependent header flags. These bits encode the BPF CPU
version for which the object file has been compiled for.
The BPF assembler is updated so it annotates the object files it
generates with these bits.
The BPF disassembler is updated so it honors EF_BPF_CPUVER to use the
appropriate ISA version if the user didn't specify an explicit ISA
version in the command line. Note that a value of zero in
EF_BPF_CPUVER is interpreted by the disassembler as "use the later
supported version" (the BPF CPU versions start with v1.)
The readelf utility is updated to pretty print EF_BPF_CPUVER when it
prints out the ELF header:
$ readelf -h a.out
ELF Header:
...
Flags: 0x4, CPU Version: 4
Tested in bpf-unknown-none.
include/ChangeLog:
2023-07-30 Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi@oracle.com>
* elf/bpf.h (EF_BPF_CPUVER): Define.
* opcode/bpf.h (BPF_XBPF): Change from 0xf to 0xff so it fits in
EF_BPF_CPUVER.
binutils/ChangeLog:
2023-07-30 Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi@oracle.com>
* readelf.c (get_machine_flags): Recognize and pretty print BPF
machine flags.
opcodes/ChangeLog:
2023-07-30 Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi@oracle.com>
* bpf-dis.c: Initialize asm_bpf_version to -1.
(print_insn_bpf): Set BPF ISA version from the cpu version ELF
header flags if no explicit version set in the command line.
* disassemble.c (disassemble_init_for_target): Remove unused code.
gas/ChangeLog:
2023-07-30 Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi@oracle.com>

README for GNU development tools This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation. If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README. If with a binutils release, see binutils/README; if with a libg++ release, see libg++/README, etc. That'll give you info about this package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc. It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of tools with one command. To build all of the tools contained herein, run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.: ./configure make To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc), then do: make install (If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''. You can use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor, and OS.) If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to also set CC when running make. For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh): CC=gcc ./configure make A similar example using csh: setenv CC gcc ./configure make Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. See the file COPYING or COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files. REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info on where and how to report problems.
