cie->output_sec is used to when merging CIEs to ensure that only CIEs from the same output section are merged. I noticed an assignment to this field in _bfd_elf_parse_eh_frame, and thought "That's wrong, output_section isn't set properly when _bfd_elf_parse_eh_frame is called from gc-sections code". It turns out that this assignment is premature, and in fact a dead store. find_merged_cie overwrites with the correct value before the field is ever used. On looking a little more it becomes apparent that cie->cie_inf.u.cie.u.sec->output_section holds the same value, so cie->output_sec is redundant. * elf-eh-frame.c (struct cie): Delete "output_sec" field. (cie_eq, cie_compute_hash): Use output_section from cie_inf instead.
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.
