- Update to binutils 2.37:
* The GNU Binutils sources now requires a C99 compiler and library to
build.
* Support for the arm-symbianelf format has been removed.
* Support for Realm Management Extension (RME) for AArch64 has been
added.
* A new linker option '-z report-relative-reloc' for x86 ELF targets
has been added to report dynamic relative relocations.
* A new linker option '-z start-stop-gc' has been added to disable
special treatment of __start_*/__stop_* references when
--gc-sections.
* A new linker options '-Bno-symbolic' has been added which will
cancel the '-Bsymbolic' and '-Bsymbolic-functions' options.
* The readelf tool has a new command line option which can be used to
specify how the numeric values of symbols are reported.
--sym-base=0|8|10|16 tells readelf to display the values in base 8,
base 10 or base 16. A sym base of 0 represents the default action
of displaying values under 10000 in base 10 and values above that in
base 16.
* A new format has been added to the nm program. Specifying
'--format=just-symbols' (or just using -j) will tell the program to
only display symbol names and nothing else.
* A new command line option '--keep-section-symbols' has been added to
objcopy and strip. This stops the removal of unused section symbols
when the file is copied. Removing these symbols saves space, but
sometimes they are needed by other tools.
* The '--weaken', '--weaken-symbol' and '--weaken-symbols' options
supported by objcopy now make undefined symbols weak on targets that
support weak symbols.
* Readelf and objdump can now display and use the contents of .debug_sup

- Update to 2.35.1 and rebased branch diff:
* This is a point release over the previous 2.35 version, containing bug
fixes, and as an exception to the usual rule, one new feature. The
new feature is the support for a new directive in the assembler:
".nop". This directive creates a single no-op instruction in whatever
encoding is correct for the target architecture. Unlike the .space or
.fill this is a real instruction, and it does affect the generation of
DWARF line number tables, should they be enabled. (forwarded request 848022 from marxin)

OBS-URL: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory/binutils?expand=0&rev=145
* Fixes PR26520, aka [bsc#1179036], a problem in addr2line with
certain DWARF variable descriptions.
* Also fixes PR26711, PR26656, PR26655, PR26929, PR26808, PR25878,
PR26740, PR26778, PR26763, PR26685, PR26699, PR26902, PR26869,
PR26711
* The above includes fixes for dwo files produced by modern dwp,
fixing several problems in the DWARF reader.

Sorry, the maintenance checker scripts detected a lost reference
from the SLE changelog, this only updates the .changes file to
contain it.
- Update binutils-2.35-branch.diff.gz to commit 23f268a0:
* Add xBPF target
* Fix various problems with DWARF 5 support in gas
- Toolchain module update for SLE15 [jsc#ECO-2373]
- Includes changes that were SLE-only in binutils-add-z15-name.diff
for [bsc#1160590, jsc#SLE-7903 aka jsc#SLE-7464]
- Add binutils-2.35-branch.diff.gz: it includes fix for
nm -B for objects compiled with -flto and -fcommon.
- Add binutils-revert-nm-symversion.diff to be compatible with old
output of nm relied on in scripts.
- Add binutils-fix-abierrormsg.diff to work around an eager (new)
error message occuring without inputs and as-needed (affects
nvme-cli build).
- Update to binutils 2.35:
* The asseembler can now produce DWARF-5 format line number tables.
* Readelf now has a "lint" mode to enable extra checks of the files it is processing.
* Readelf will now display "[...]" when it has to truncate a symbol name.
The old behaviour - of displaying as many characters as possible, up to
the 80 column limit - can be restored by the use of the --silent-truncation
option.
* The linker can now produce a dependency file listing the inputs that it
has processed, much like the -M -MP option supported by the compiler.
- Regenerate add-ulp-section.diff with -p1 due to a fuzzing issue.
- Remove binutils-2.34-branch.diff.gz.
- Regenerate binutils-build-as-needed.diff due to a fuzzing issue.
- Regenerate binutils-fix-invalid-op-errata.diff as one hunk was upstreamed.
- Remove upstreamed patch binutils-pr25593.diff.
