2020-05-05libdl/obj: Fix RAP format call table.Chris Johns
Updates #3969
2020-04-16Canonicalize config.h includeSebastian Huber
Use the following variant which was already used by most source files: #ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H #include "config.h" #endif
2019-05-22libdl: Sort object file symbols and use a binary search to findChris Johns
- Replace the linear object file symbol search with a binary search. - Sort the object file symbols after loading. Closes #3748
2019-05-03libdl: Do not access the ELF file while the allocator is locked.Chris Johns
- Load symbols before allocation. - Parse reloc records and place any reloc recs in a cache to use while the allocator is locked. - Relocate symbols after section allocation. - Split section loading into allocation/locating and loading. - Update all arch back-ends with a new reloc interface to control tramp handling. - Add `-a` and `-t` to the object list shell command. Closes #3741
2019-02-15libdl: Allocator does not unlock and lock memory on loading.Chris Johns
Close #3692
2019-02-09libdl: Add powerpc large memory and small data support.Chris Johns
- Add support for architecure sections that can be handled by the architecture back end. - Add trampoline/fixup support for PowerPC. This means the PowerPC now supports large memory loading of applications. - Add a bit allocator to manage small block based regions of memory. - Add small data (sdata/sbss) support for the PowerPC. The support makes the linker allocated small data region of memory a global resource available to libdl loaded object files. Updates #3687 Updates #3685
2019-02-09libdl: Add support for large memory programsChris Johns
- Add trampolines to support relocs that are out of range on support architectures. - Support not loading separate text/data sections in an object file if the symbol provided in the section is a duplicate. A base image may have pulled in part of an object and another part needs to be dynamically loaded. - Refactor the unresolved handling to scale to hundreds of unresolved symbols when loading large number of files. Updates #3685
2019-02-09libdl: Add support for trampolinesChris Johns
- Trampolines or fixups for veneers provide long jump support for instruciton sets that implement short relative address branches. The linker provides trampolines when creating a static image. This patch adds trampoline support to libdl and the ARM architecture. - The dl09 test requires enough memory so modules are outside the relative branch instruction ranges for the architecture. Updates #3685
2019-02-09libdl: Add symbol searching and loading from archives.Chris Johns
- Load archive symbol tables to support searching of archives for symbols. - Search archive symbols and load the object file that contains the symbol. - Search the global and archives until all remaining unresolved symbols are not found. Group the loaded object files in the pending queue. - Run the object file and loaded dependents as a group before adding to the main object list. - Remove orphaned object files after references are removed. Updates #3686

2018-11-22libdl: Add object file dependencies to track referencesChris Johns
Tracking references lets us manage when an object file can be unloaded. If an object file has references to it, it cannot be unloaded. Modules that depend on each other cannot be unloaded. Updates #3605
2018-11-22libdl: Manage the allocation of common uninitialised variables.Chris Johns
The use of separate text and data results in uninitialised variables being placed in the common section. There is no section in ELF for the common variables so the loader needs to create the section and allocate the variables in that section. This patch does that. The patch adds a second pass over the symbols. The issue can also be seen as a section 65522 error. Updates #3604
2018-10-04libdl: Avoid command line definesSebastian Huber
Update #3375.
2018-04-12libdl: Remove _t from all structures as this is reserved for the standardsChris Johns
2017-12-13libdl: Include <rtems/rtl/rtl-*.h>Sebastian Huber
Prepare for header file move to common include directory. Update #3254.
2017-10-06libdl: Fix warningsSebastian Huber
Update #3155.
2017-08-25Include missing <string.h>Sebastian Huber
Update #2133.
2017-03-31libdl: Support link ordered loading of ELF sections.Chris Johns
The ARM C++ exception ABI uses an address ordered index table to locate the correct frame data and this requires the EXIDX sections are loaded in the order the order the matching text is loaded. The EXIDX sections set the SHF_LINK_ORDER flag and link field. This patch adds support to load those flagged sections in the linked-to section order. Updates #2955. Closes #2959
2016-12-14libdl: Add C++ exception support to loaded modules.Chris Johns
This has been tested on SPARC, i386, PowerPC and ARM. Closes #2767.
2016-10-04libdl/rtl-obj.c: synchronize cache should not depend on CPU_CACHE_LINE_BYTES.Pavel Pisa
Use of rtems_cache_get_maximal_line_size() is more descriptive choice. The min/max data/instruction cache line size is not critical there, value is used for optimization only to use single operation for directly following sections.
2016-07-21libdl/rtl-obj.c: synchronize cache after code relocation.Pavel Pisa
Memory content changes caused by relocation has to be propagated to memory/cache level which is used/snooped during instruction cache fill. Closes #2438
2016-07-04libdl/rtl-obj.c: ensure that loaded code is synchronized through caches.Pavel Pisa
Synchronize each cluster of sections of the same type separately to support even cases where text and data are allocated from different areas (for example due allocation from different MPU protection regions). rtems_cache_instruction_sync_after_code_change is called even to data sections. Propagation of data only changes should not require cache maintenance operation on sane SMP mutithread capable systems if barrier instruction is added but be on safe side even for case where self modifying code uses data sections initial values etc.

This is a merge of the RTL project.
