  sergei a4053370fc * ELF linker: track relocation style (REL or RELA) of each input section and use it instead of global default on MIPS targets. This fixes internal linking of tests/test/units/system/tres*.pp. 10 years ago
  nickysn 7cfd7a66cd + create a special 'heap' segment with reserved space equal to heapsize (i.e. 11 years ago
  nickysn 3cc8ff11e3 + generate the stack segment for i8086 far data memory models from within fpc 11 years ago
  sergei 46f8e78d1f + Support GOT/gp-relative constants in GAS and internal assemblers, MIPS and i386. 11 years ago
  florian 4d5119bf1c * fixes several issues which cause warnings by the dfa code when using it to detect uninitialized variables 11 years ago
  sergei 1f8a67f552 + Property TObjSymbol.ObjData, allows to access owning TObjData for external/common symbols, i.e. ones with ObjSection=nil. 12 years ago
  sergei 5b6e50c9da * It is incorrect to use var_align() in linker code: it depends on current_settings.alignment, which is valid only while compiling, not while linking. Replaced with size_2_align(). 12 years ago
  sergei 1fea5a82c1 * Replaced oso_disabled flag by TExeSection.Disabled boolean property. Makes code a bit nicer to read. 12 years ago
  sergei b86372ccec + Internal linker: process unreferenced .pdata sections on x86_64-win64, restores the possibility to use GAS on win64 (which got broken by introducing SEH). 12 years ago
  sergei c3f8086598 + Internal linker: base support for sections that aren't referenced but must be linked if section referenced by them is linked (like win64 .pdata). Actual handling is still to be implemented in descendant classes. 12 years ago
  sergei 999c3a0a02 * COFF linker: postpone import section generation until unreferenced sections (and imports) are removed, and put all remaining imports into a single section. This is much more efficient than generating multiple smart-linkable import sections and immediately discarding a good half of them. 12 years ago
  sergei cded05ccef + MIPS linker: support linking PIC object files with non-PIC ones, by routing absolute calls into PIC code through stubs that load R25. 12 years ago
  sergei 1d32b107f5 * Made address comparison 64-bit safe. 12 years ago
  florian 20a534e63f * fixed code which causes range check errors when compiled with -Cr 12 years ago
  sergei 6484911f05 * TExeOutput.FixupRelocations method made virtual. 12 years ago
  sergei f98e09d86e - TObjData.sectiontype2options: removed oso_keep flags. They don't have any effect here because this function is used only during assembling, and oso_keep cannot be represented in object files and therefore gets lost before linking. 12 years ago
  sergei 2bba4e2d44 + Stabs debug info needs swapping when linking for different endianness. 12 years ago
  sergei d7c5daeccd * Don't calculate data position of each object section. Instead, write out a copy of exesection's memory image, i.e. every objsection is placed at the same offset from its owning exesection both on disk and in memory. This approach is simpler and works regardless of alignment requirements, while existing one could work only if SectionDataAlign<=SectionMemAlign. 12 years ago
  sergei 00ca4a74a3 * Reworked/fixed TExeSymbol.State behavior: 12 years ago
  sergei 36859068f5 * Propagate AS_NEEDED flag further into Load_DynamicObject and handle it properly: shared objects marked with AS_NEEDED are added to dependencies only if they actually resolve some symbol. 12 years ago
  sergei 129d737523 + Allow TObjRelocation to be created without a symbol, such relocations are being used to tag specific positions on non-x86 targets. 12 years ago
  sergei 0369a30f49 * Internal linker: made sec_rodata_norel read-only. 12 years ago
  sergei 1aea22a6ca + Internal linker: generic and ELF-specific support for grouped sections, allow same symbol to be defined in several COMDAT groups. 12 years ago
  sergei d019670495 - Removed generic implementation of TObjData.sectionname, its existence is useless because it is completely overridden by all TObjData descendants. 12 years ago
  sergei 8a56c9f7dc * TExeOutput.Order_Symbol and Order_ProvideSymbol: Instead of searching objsection by name, search for the symbol and use its objsection. 12 years ago
  sergei 499162ca50 * Internal linker: fixed alignment routines. Neither of existing ones is suitable for 64-bit targets: cutils.align() is 32-bit only and moreover signed, system.align() crashes on zero alignment values and handles only pointer size of source platform. 12 years ago
  sergei ee62a1ed50 * Fixed unclosed comment from r22775. 12 years ago
  sergei 6d70009f06 + ELF linker. Works on x86_64-linux and i386-linux good enough to pass the testsuite, but still requires a lot of work in nearly all aspects. In particular, no attempt to resolve symbols from shared libs is done, everything is just treated as imports. Symbol versioning isn't supported either. 12 years ago
  sergei a178e28275 + Extend TObjRelocation to hold untranslated platform-specific relocation types. This allows to avoid translating relocations into generic format when reading object files (which is just waste of time), and allows TObjRelocationType enumeration contain only types that are actually produced by compiler. 12 years ago
  sergei 3d63b1a2b2 + Added a flag allowing a section to be written into both .dbg and executable files. This is needed at least for ELF SHT_NOTE sections. 12 years ago
