This (and other) code from coffcode.h is broken for x86_64_coff_vec,
and has been ever since support was added in 2006 commit 99ad839030
Here, bfd_coff_aoutsz must match coff_swap_aouthdr_out otherwise we
end up writing garbage.
/* Note that peicode.h fills in a PEAOUTHDR, not an AOUTHDR.
include/coff/pe.h sets AOUTSZ == sizeof (PEAOUTHDR)). */
char * buff;
bfd_size_type amount = bfd_coff_aoutsz (abfd);
buff = (char *) bfd_malloc (amount);
if (buff == NULL)
return false;
coff_swap_aouthdr_out (abfd, & internal_a, buff);
amount = bfd_bwrite (buff, amount, abfd);
We have removed support for --target=x86_64-coff, likely because it
never worked properly, but still produce coff-x86_64.o with
--enable-targets=all. This means objcopy can recognize x86_64 COFF
files but will write garbage to the output file, a fact found by
fuzzers. I suspect x86_64 COFF is still broken after this fix, and
mention of coff-x86_64.* should be removed from bfd/Makefile.am.
* coff-x86_64.c: Don't include coff/pe.h.
(COFF_WITH_pex64): Don't define here.
* pe-x86_64.c: Include coff/pe.h and other headers.
(PEI_HEADERS): Define.
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.
