							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>BFD supports a number of different flavours of coff format. 
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								The major differences between formats are the sizes and
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								alignments of fields in structures on disk, and the occasional
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								extra field.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>Coff in all its varieties is implemented with a few common
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								files and a number of implementation specific files. For
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								example, The 88k bcs coff format is implemented in the file
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coff-m88k.c</span>. This file <code>#include</code>s
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coff/m88k.h</span> which defines the external structure of the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								coff format for the 88k, and <span class="file">coff/internal.h</span> which
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								defines the internal structure. <span class="file">coff-m88k.c</span> also
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								defines the relocations used by the 88k format
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								See <a href="Relocations.html#Relocations">Relocations</a>.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>The Intel i960 processor version of coff is implemented in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coff-i960.c</span>. This file has the same structure as
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coff-m88k.c</span>, except that it includes <span class="file">coff/i960.h</span>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								rather than <span class="file">coff-m88k.h</span>.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<h4 class="subsection">3.3.1 Porting to a new version of coff</h4>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>The recommended method is to select from the existing
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								implementations the version of coff which is most like the one
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								you want to use.  For example, we'll say that i386 coff is
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the one you select, and that your coff flavour is called foo. 
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Copy <span class="file">i386coff.c</span> to <span class="file">foocoff.c</span>, copy
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">../include/coff/i386.h</span> to <span class="file">../include/coff/foo.h</span>,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								and add the lines to <span class="file">targets.c</span> and <span class="file">Makefile.in</span>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								so that your new back end is used. Alter the shapes of the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								structures in <span class="file">../include/coff/foo.h</span> so that they match
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								what you need. You will probably also have to add
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>#ifdef</code>s to the code in <span class="file">coff/internal.h</span> and
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coffcode.h</span> if your version of coff is too wild.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>You can verify that your new BFD backend works quite simply by
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								building <span class="file">objdump</span> from the <span class="file">binutils</span> directory,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								and making sure that its version of what's going on and your
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								host system's idea (assuming it has the pretty standard coff
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								dump utility, usually called <code>att-dump</code> or just
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>dump</code>) are the same.  Then clean up your code, and send
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								what you've done to Cygnus. Then your stuff will be in the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								next release, and you won't have to keep integrating it.

						||
|

								<h4 class="subsection">3.3.2 How the coff backend works</h4>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<h5 class="subsubsection">3.3.2.1 File layout</h5>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>The Coff backend is split into generic routines that are
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								applicable to any Coff target and routines that are specific
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								to a particular target.  The target-specific routines are
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								further split into ones which are basically the same for all
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Coff targets except that they use the external symbol format
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								or use different values for certain constants.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>The generic routines are in <span class="file">coffgen.c</span>.  These routines
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								work for any Coff target.  They use some hooks into the target
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								specific code; the hooks are in a <code>bfd_coff_backend_data</code>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								structure, one of which exists for each target.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>The essentially similar target-specific routines are in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coffcode.h</span>.  This header file includes executable C code. 
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								The various Coff targets first include the appropriate Coff
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								header file, make any special defines that are needed, and
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								then include <span class="file">coffcode.h</span>.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>Some of the Coff targets then also have additional routines in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the target source file itself.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>For example, <span class="file">coff-i960.c</span> includes
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coff/internal.h</span> and <span class="file">coff/i960.h</span>.  It then
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								defines a few constants, such as <code>I960</code>, and includes
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coffcode.h</span>.  Since the i960 has complex relocation
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								types, <span class="file">coff-i960.c</span> also includes some code to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								manipulate the i960 relocs.  This code is not in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coffcode.h</span> because it would not be used by any other
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								target.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<h5 class="subsubsection">3.3.2.2 Bit twiddling</h5>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>Each flavour of coff supported in BFD has its own header file
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								describing the external layout of the structures. There is also
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								an internal description of the coff layout, in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coff/internal.h</span>. A major function of the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								coff backend is swapping the bytes and twiddling the bits to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								translate the external form of the structures into the normal
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								internal form. This is all performed in the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>bfd_swap</code>_<i>thing</i>_<i>direction</i> routines. Some
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								elements are different sizes between different versions of
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								coff; it is the duty of the coff version specific include file
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								to override the definitions of various packing routines in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<span class="file">coffcode.h</span>. E.g., the size of line number entry in coff is
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								sometimes 16 bits, and sometimes 32 bits. <code>#define</code>ing
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>PUT_LNSZ_LNNO</code> and <code>GET_LNSZ_LNNO</code> will select the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								correct one. No doubt, some day someone will find a version of
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								coff which has a varying field size not catered to at the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								moment. To port BFD, that person will have to add more <code>#defines</code>. 
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								Three of the bit twiddling routines are exported to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>gdb</code>; <code>coff_swap_aux_in</code>, <code>coff_swap_sym_in</code>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								and <code>coff_swap_lineno_in</code>. <code>GDB</code> reads the symbol
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								table on its own, but uses BFD to fix things up.  More of the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								bit twiddlers are exported for <code>gas</code>;
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>coff_swap_aux_out</code>, <code>coff_swap_sym_out</code>,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>coff_swap_lineno_out</code>, <code>coff_swap_reloc_out</code>,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>coff_swap_filehdr_out</code>, <code>coff_swap_aouthdr_out</code>,
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>coff_swap_scnhdr_out</code>. <code>Gas</code> currently keeps track
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								of all the symbol table and reloc drudgery itself, thereby
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								saving the internal BFD overhead, but uses BFD to swap things
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								on the way out, making cross ports much safer.  Doing so also
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								allows BFD (and thus the linker) to use the same header files
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								as <code>gas</code>, which makes one avenue to disaster disappear.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<h5 class="subsubsection">3.3.2.3 Symbol reading</h5>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>The simple canonical form for symbols used by BFD is not rich
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								enough to keep all the information available in a coff symbol
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								table. The back end gets around this problem by keeping the original
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								symbol table around, "behind the scenes".
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>When a symbol table is requested (through a call to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>bfd_canonicalize_symtab</code>), a request gets through to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>coff_get_normalized_symtab</code>. This reads the symbol table from
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the coff file and swaps all the structures inside into the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								internal form. It also fixes up all the pointers in the table
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								(represented in the file by offsets from the first symbol in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the table) into physical pointers to elements in the new
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								internal table. This involves some work since the meanings of
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								fields change depending upon context: a field that is a
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								pointer to another structure in the symbol table at one moment
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								may be the size in bytes of a structure at the next.  Another
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								pass is made over the table. All symbols which mark file names
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								(<code>C_FILE</code> symbols) are modified so that the internal
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								string points to the value in the auxent (the real filename)
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								rather than the normal text associated with the symbol
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								(<code>".file"</code>).
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>At this time the symbol names are moved around. Coff stores
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								all symbols less than nine characters long physically
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								within the symbol table; longer strings are kept at the end of
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the file in the string table. This pass moves all strings
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								into memory and replaces them with pointers to the strings.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>The symbol table is massaged once again, this time to create
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the canonical table used by the BFD application. Each symbol
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								is inspected in turn, and a decision made (using the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>sclass</code> field) about the various flags to set in the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>asymbol</code>.  See <a href="Symbols.html#Symbols">Symbols</a>. The generated canonical table
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								shares strings with the hidden internal symbol table.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>Any linenumbers are read from the coff file too, and attached
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								to the symbols which own the functions the linenumbers belong to.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<h5 class="subsubsection">3.3.2.4 Symbol writing</h5>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>Writing a symbol to a coff file which didn't come from a coff
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								file will lose any debugging information. The <code>asymbol</code>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								structure remembers the BFD from which the symbol was taken, and on
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								output the back end makes sure that the same destination target as
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								source target is present.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>When the symbols have come from a coff file then all the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								debugging information is preserved.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>Symbol tables are provided for writing to the back end in a
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								vector of pointers to pointers. This allows applications like
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the linker to accumulate and output large symbol tables
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								without having to do too much byte copying.

								   <p>This function runs through the provided symbol table and
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								patches each symbol marked as a file place holder
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								(<code>C_FILE</code>) to point to the next file place holder in the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								list. It also marks each <code>offset</code> field in the list with
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the offset from the first symbol of the current symbol.

								 | 
							
								   <p>Another function of this procedure is to turn the canonical
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								value form of BFD into the form used by coff. Internally, BFD
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								expects symbol values to be offsets from a section base; so a
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								symbol physically at 0x120, but in a section starting at
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								0x100, would have the value 0x20. Coff expects symbols to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								contain their final value, so symbols have their values
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								changed at this point to reflect their sum with their owning
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								section.  This transformation uses the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>output_section</code> field of the <code>asymbol</code>'s
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>asection</code> See <a href="Sections.html#Sections">Sections</a>.

							 |

								 | 
							
								the offsets generated by the previous pass and the pointers
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								generated when the symbol table was read in to create the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								structured hierarchy required by coff. It changes each pointer
							 |

								to a symbol into the index into the symbol table of the asymbol.

							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>To write relocations, the back end steps though the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								canonical relocation table and create an
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>internal_reloc</code>. The symbol index to use is removed from
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the <code>offset</code> field in the symbol table supplied.  The
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								address comes directly from the sum of the section base
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								address and the relocation offset; the type is dug directly
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								from the howto field.  Then the <code>internal_reloc</code> is
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								swapped into the shape of an <code>external_reloc</code> and written
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								out to disk.

						||

								<h5 class="subsubsection">3.3.2.8 Reading linenumbers</h5>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>Creating the linenumber table is done by reading in the entire
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								coff linenumber table, and creating another table for internal use.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>A coff linenumber table is structured so that each function
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								is marked as having a line number of 0. Each line within the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								function is an offset from the first line in the function. The
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								base of the line number information for the table is stored in
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								the symbol associated with the function.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>Note: The PE format uses line number 0 for a flag indicating a
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								new source file.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>The information is copied from the external to the internal
							 |

							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<p>Coff relocations are easily transformed into the internal BFD form
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								(<code>arelent</code>).
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								   <p>Reading a coff relocation table is done in the following stages:
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								     <ul>
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<li>Read the entire coff relocation table into memory.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								     <li>Process each relocation in turn; first swap it from the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								external to the internal form.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								     <li>Turn the symbol referenced in the relocation's symbol index
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								into a pointer into the canonical symbol table. 
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								This table is the same as the one returned by a call to
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>bfd_canonicalize_symtab</code>. The back end will call that
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								routine and save the result if a canonicalization hasn't been done.
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								     <li>The reloc index is turned into a pointer to a howto
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								structure, in a back end specific way. For instance, the 386
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								and 960 use the <code>r_type</code> to directly produce an index
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								into a howto table vector; the 88k subtracts a number from the
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								<code>r_type</code> field and creates an addend field. 
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								</ul>
