<title>modpost: Update 64k section support for binutils 2.18.50</title>

<content type='text'>
Binutils 2.18.50 made a backwards-incompatible change in the way it
writes ELF objects with over 65280 sections, to improve conformance
with the ELF specification and interoperability with other ELF tools.
Specifically, it no longer adds 256 to section indices SHN_LORESERVE
and higher to skip over the reserved range SHN_LORESERVE through
SHN_HIRESERVE; those values are only considered special in the
st_shndx field, and not in other places where section indices are
stored.  See:

<title>bcma: add Broadcom specific AMBA bus driver</title>

<id>urn:sha1:8369ae33b705222aa05ab53c7d6b4458f4ed161b</id>
<content type='text'>
Broadcom has released cards based on a new AMBA-based bus type. From a
programming point of view, this new bus type differs from AMBA and does
not use AMBA common registers. It also differs enough from SSB. We
decided that a new bus driver is needed to keep the code clean.

In its current form, the driver detects devices present on the bus and
registers them in the system. It allows registering BCMA drivers for
specified bus devices and provides them basic operations. The bus driver
itself includes two important bus managing drivers: ChipCommon core
driver and PCI(c) core driver. They are early used to allow correct
initialization.

Currently code is limited to supporting buses on PCI(e) devices, however
the driver is designed to be used also on other hosts. The host
abstraction layer is implemented and already used for PCI(e).

Support for PCI(e) hosts is working and seems to be stable (access to
80211 core was tested successfully on a few devices). We can still
optimize it by using some fixed windows, but this can be done later
without affecting any external code. Windows are just ranges in MMIO
used for accessing cores on the bus.

    fixdep: Do not record dependency on the source file itself

changed the format of the *.cmd files without realizing that it is also
used by modpost. Put the path to the source file to the file back, in a
special variable, so that modpost sees all source files when calculating
srcversion for modules.

<title>modpost: Fix address calculation in reloc_location()</title>

<id>urn:sha1:731ece41fb1047816303295a0cdfed90a528137e</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch fixes a segfault in modpost that is observed when the gold
linker is used to link the input objects.

The problem is that reloc_location (modpost.c) is computing the
address of the relocation target incorrectly. Here, elf-&gt;hdr points
to the beginning of the ELF file in memory, sechdr points to the
relocation section header, section is the index of the section
being relocated, and sechdrs[section].sh_offset would be the offset
of that section, relative to the beginning of the ELF file. Adding
elf-&gt;hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset gives you the address of the
beginning of the section, and adding r-&gt;r_offset to that gives you the
address of the location to be relocated. You do not need to subtract
sechdrs[section].sh_addr from that -- the result of this is an address
outside the file, and causes the segfault when addend_386_rel tries to
dereference it.

This bug is not observed when GNU ld is used to link the inputs. The
object file ubuntu/omnibook/omnibook.o is the result of an ld -r of
several other files.  When GNU ld does an ld -r, it sets the vaddr
field for each section to 0, but gold lays out the section addresses
sequentially instead:

Section Headers:
 [Nr] Name              Type            Addr     Off    Size   ES Flg Lk Inf Al
 [ 0]                   NULL            00000000 000000 000000 00      0   0  0
 [ 1] .text             PROGBITS        00000000 000034 004794 00  AX  0   0  4
 [ 2] .data             PROGBITS        0000b9d0 0047c8 0009c0 00  WA  0   0  4
 [ 3] .bss              NOBITS          000162f8 005188 00013c 00  WA  0   0  4
 [ 4] .rodata.str1.1    PROGBITS        00004f2d 0052c4 001b1a 01 AMS  0   0  1
 [ 5] .init.text        PROGBITS        00004794 006dde 0005fa 00  AX  0   0  1
 [ 6] .exit.text        PROGBITS        00004d8e 0073d8 00018a 00  AX  0   0  1
  ...

So the bug in the tool remained undiscovered because the section's vaddr
always happened to be 0.
