1074 Fix some memory leaks in libelf.
1078 Implement reading version script. Both inside linker scripts and via the
1079 --version-script command line parameter. Uses the same code.
1080 What remains to be done is to implement a data structure which allows
1081 efficient matching against the version names to decide which pattern
1084 Beginning of output generation and output writing functions.
1088 Finish implementation for DSO input file handling. Implement rpath, runpath,
1089 and LD_LIBRARY_PATH handling.
1093 make handling of e_shnum overflow in libelf standard conforming
1095 ld now actually can handle DSOs in linker scripts. Handling of DT_RUNPATH,
1096 DT_RPATH, -rpath, -rpath-link still remains to be implemented.
1098 fix handling of -L parameters. Make actual use of the default_paths element.
1100 make re-definition of symbols in and from DSO compatible with existing linker
1104 more work on assigning input sections to output sections.
1106 Add gelf_xlatetof and gelf_xlatetom which were accidently left out.
1108 Fix memory handling of section headers.
1112 Add many-section support to ld. Add various new command line parameters.
1113 Allow pagesize to be specified in linker script or on the command line.
1114 Collect input sections in list for the output section according to the rules
1115 specified in the linker script.
1119 Fix some problems in the internal list handling which had the result
1120 that we didn't look for some of the unresolved symbols.
1122 Free some memory if we know we don't need it anymore.
1124 Optimize the list of unresolved symbols. Throw out symbols which are
1129 Got file reading correct now. The files are all read while parsing
1130 the parameters. No creating of data structures to describe the linker
1131 command line. The symbol table is built up while reading the files.
1132 DSOs are handled now. -( -) handling is optimized.
1136 Linker read linker scripts everywhere. Handles --whole-archive. Recognizes
1137 --dynamic and --static. Collects defined and undefined symbols. Recognizes
1140 libebl now defines functions to call the callbacks. Add generic name handling
1141 in these new functions. Remove the code from readelf and call the new
1146 Start of linker. Basic argument parsing, finding of input files,
1147 linker script reading.
1151 Implement dwarf_get_fde_n(), dwarf_get_abbrev(), dwarf_get_abbrev_tag(),
1152 dwarf_get_abbrev_code(), dwarf_get_abbrev_children_flag(),
1153 dwarf_get_abbrev_entry(), dwarf_get_fde_at_pc(), and tests for it.
1157 Implement dwarf_get_fde_list_eh(), dwarf_get_cie_of_fde(),
1158 dwarf_get_fde_range(), dwarf_get_cie_info(), dwarf_get_fde_instr_bytes(),
1163 Make handling of binaries in other byte order work and add tests for it.
1167 Implement dwarf_get_aranges(), dwarf_get_arange(), dwarf_get_cu_die_offset(),
1168 dwarf_get_arange_info(), and tests for them.
1172 Implement dwarf_get_global(), dwarf_globname(), dwarf_global_die_offset(),
1173 dwarf_global_cu_offset(), dwarf_global_name_offsets(), and tests for them
1177 Implemented dwarf_srclines(), dwarf_srcfiles(), dwarf_linebeginstatement(),
1178 dwarf_lineendsequence(), dwarf_lineno(), dwarf_lineaddr(), dwarf_lineoff(),
1179 dwarf_linesrc(), dwarf_lineblock(), dwarf_lineprologueend(),
1180 dwarf_lineepiloguebegin(), and tests for them.
1184 Implemented dwarf_loclist().
1188 Implemented dwarf_dieoffset(), dwarf_die_CU_offset(), dwarf_diename() and
1191 Implemented dwarf_attrlist(), dwarf_hasattr(), dwarf_attr(), dwarf_lowpc(),
1192 dwarf_highpc(), dwarf_bytesize(), dwarf_bitsize(), dwarf_bitoffset(),
1193 dwarf_srclang(), dwarf_arrayorder(), dwarf_hasform(), dwarf_whatform(),
1194 dwarf_whatattr(), dwarf_formref(), dwarf_global_formref(), dwarf_formaddr(),
1195 dwarf_formflag(), dwarf_formudata(), dwarf_formsdata(), dwarf_formblock,
1196 dwarf_formstring() and tests for them.
1200 Implemented dwarf_offdie()), dwarf_tag(), dwarf_dieoffset(),
1201 dwarf_die_CU_offset(), dwarf_diename() and tests for them.
1205 First libdwarf functions work.
1209 libelf and parts of libebl are done.
