[Bug gas/4799] Common symbols not given type STT_COMMON

Hi Richard,

  I have uploaded a patch which takes a stab at implementing support for the ELF
STT_COMMON type.  Would you care to have a look at it ?

  The issues that I think need to be considered are:

  * What should happen if a symbol is defined by some method other than the
.comm pseudo op and then its type is set to common ?  eg:

.data
foo:
.word 4
.type foo,STT_COMMON

At the moment the patch just arbitrarily moves the symbol into the common
section, but is this correct.  Maybe an error message should be issued instead ?

  * The patched assembler will now emit common symbols with the STT_COMMON type
rather than the STT_OBJECT type.  Are there build systems out there that depend
on th eold behaviour ?

  * It is possible to have symbols with the STT_COMMON type but which are not in
the common section.  How should the binutils handle them ?  For now the patch
just treats them like STT_OBJECT symbols, which I think is the correct thing to 
do.

Cheers
  Nick

[Bug gas/4303] gas 2.14 and over make a stabs symbol ABS while gas 2.13 makes it UND

Note that this patch make a symbol of type 0 for
.stabs "foo", 0, 0, 0, 0
which is shown as *ABS*.  2.13 changes the symbol type to 1 to get an UND
global.  I think 2.13 is wrong...

[Bug gas/5088] An 8-bit range checking overlaps a constant range greater than 8-bit

2007-10-03 Thread nickc at redhat dot com

--- Additional Comments From nickc at redhat dot com  2007-10-03 14:27

Hi Jorma,

  The test does indeed check a 9-bit range, but this is because the pm_xx8()
expressions shift their argument right by one.  The avr_ldi_expression()
function could be tightened up to check an 8-bit range when not checking a
pm_xx8() expression, but I will leave that to the AVR maintainers to do, should
they decide that it is important.

Cheers
  Nick
