This gives us loongarch, new s390 insns (for SLE), and for now
avoid the issue with zstd we had in the last submission (by not
using it by default). It's also what is going to be in SLE-15
soon.
- Update to current 2.43.1 branch [PED-10254, PED-10306]:
* s390 - Add arch15 instructions
* various fixes from upstream: PR32153, PR32171, PR32189,
PR32196, PR32191, PR32109, PR32372, PR32387
- Adjusted binutils-2.43-branch.diff.gz.
- Disable zstd-by-default again (needs adjustments in at least
golang,llvm15,llvm17 first)
- Add binutils-fix-branch.diff.
- Check non-changing of flex/bison inputs only after applying
branch and fix-branch diffs.
- drop ld-relro.diff (relro is the default for some time)
and it warns on avr spuriously (bsc#1233520)
- Add loongarch64 as new target
- Enable zstd compression algorithm (instead of zlib)
for debug info sections by default.

userspace and huge links. [bsc#1216908]
- riscv-relro.patch: RISC-V: Protect .got with relro
- Add libzstd-devel to Requires of binutils-devel. (bsc#1215341)
- Update to version 2.41 [PED-5778]:
* The MIPS port now supports the Sony Interactive Entertainment Allegrex
processor, used with the PlayStation Portable, which implements the MIPS
II ISA along with a single-precision FPU and a few implementation-specific
integer instructions.
* Objdump's --private option can now be used on PE format files to display the
fields in the file header and section headers.
* New versioned release of libsframe: libsframe.so.1. This release introduces
versioned symbols with version node name LIBSFRAME_1.0. This release also
updates the ABI in an incompatible way: this includes removal of
sframe_get_funcdesc_with_addr API, change in the behavior of
sframe_fre_get_ra_offset and sframe_fre_get_fp_offset APIs.
* SFrame Version 2 is now the default (and only) format version supported by
gas, ld, readelf and objdump.
* Add command-line option, --strip-section-headers, to objcopy and strip to
remove ELF section header from ELF file.
* The RISC-V port now supports the following new standard extensions:
- Zicond (conditional zero instructions)
- Zfa (additional floating-point instructions)
- Zvbb, Zvbc, Zvkg, Zvkned, Zvknh[ab], Zvksed, Zvksh, Zvkn, Zvknc, Zvkng,

- Add binutils-2.39-branch.diff.gz.
- Explicitly enable --enable-warn-execstack=yes and --enable-warn-rwx-segments=yes.
- Add gprofng subpackage.
- Update to binutils 2.39:
* The ELF linker will now generate a warning message if the stack is made
executable. Similarly it will warn if the output binary contains a
segment with all three of the read, write and execute permission
bits set. These warnings are intended to help developers identify
programs which might be vulnerable to attack via these executable
memory regions.
The warnings are enabled by default but can be disabled via a command
line option. It is also possible to build a linker with the warnings
disabled, should that be necessary.
* The ELF linker now supports a --package-metadata option that allows
embedding a JSON payload in accordance to the Package Metadata
specification.
* In linker scripts it is now possible to use TYPE=<type> in an output
section description to set the section type value.
* The objdump program now supports coloured/colored syntax
highlighting of its disassembler output for some architectures.
(Currently: AVR, RiscV, s390, x86, x86_64).
* The nm program now supports a --no-weak/-W option to make it ignore
weak symbols.
* The readelf and objdump programs now support a -wE option to prevent
them from attempting to access debuginfod servers when following
links.
* The objcopy program's --weaken, --weaken-symbol, and

- 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)

* For MIPS, Add -m[no-]fix-loongson3-llsc option to fix (or not)
Loongson3 LLSC Errata. Add a --enable-mips-fix-loongson3-llsc=[yes|no]
configure time option to set the default behavior. Set the default
if the configure option is not used to "no".
* The Cortex-A53 Erratum 843419 workaround now supports a choice of
which workaround to use. The option --fix-cortex-a53-843419 now
takes an optional argument --fix-cortex-a53-843419[=full|adr|adrp]
which can be used to force a particular workaround to be used.
See --help for AArch64 for more details.

the Loongson EXTensions (EXT) instructions, the Loongson Content
Address Memory (CAM) ASE and the Loongson MultiMedia extensions
Instructions (MMI) ASE.
* The addr2line, c++filt, nm and objdump tools now have a default
limit on the maximum amount of recursion that is allowed whilst
demangling strings. This limit can be disabled if necessary.

* This version of binutils fixes a problem with PowerPC VLE 16A and 16D
relocations which were functionally swapped, for example,
R_PPC_VLE_HA16A performed like R_PPC_VLE_HA16D while R_PPC_VLE_HA16D
performed like R_PPC_VLE_HA16A. This could have been fixed by
renumbering relocations, which would keep object files created by an
older version of gas compatible with a newer ld. However, that would
require an ABI update, affecting other assemblers and linkers that
create and process the relocations correctly. It is recommended that
all VLE object files be recompiled, but ld can modify the relocations
if --vle-reloc-fixup is passed to ld. If the new ld command line
option is not used, ld will ld warn on finding relocations inconsistent
with the instructions being relocated.
* The nm program has a new command line option (--with-version-strings)
which will display a symbol's version information, if any, after the
symbol's name.
* The ARC port of objdump now accepts a -M option to specify the extra
instruction class(es) that should be disassembled.
* The --remove-section option for objcopy and strip now accepts section
patterns starting with an exclamation point to indicate a non-matching
section. A non-matching section is removed from the set of sections

- Update to binutils 2.27.
* Add a configure option, --enable-64-bit-archive, to force use of a
64-bit format when creating an archive symbol index.
* Add --elf-stt-common= option to objcopy for ELF targets to control
whether to convert common symbols to the STT_COMMON type.
GAS:
* Default to --enable-compressed-debug-sections=gas for Linux/x86 targets.
* Add --no-pad-sections to stop the assembler from padding the end of output
sections up to their alignment boundary.
* Support for the ARMv8-M architecture has been added to the ARM port.
Support for the ARMv8-M Security and DSP Extensions has also been added
to the ARM port.
* ARC backend accepts .extInstruction, .extCondCode, .extAuxRegister, and
.extCoreRegister pseudo-ops that allow an user to define custom
instructions, conditional codes, auxiliary and core registers.
* Add a configure option --enable-elf-stt-common to decide whether ELF
assembler should generate common symbols with the STT_COMMON type by
default. Default to no.
* New command line option --elf-stt-common= for ELF targets to control
whether to generate common symbols with the STT_COMMON type.
* Add ability to set section flags and types via numeric values for ELF
based targets.
* Add a configure option --enable-x86-relax-relocations to decide whether
x86 assembler should generate relax relocations by default. Default to
yes, except for x86 Solaris targets older than Solaris 12.
* New command line option -mrelax-relocations= for x86 target to control
whether to generate relax relocations.
* New command line option -mfence-as-lock-add=yes for x86 target to encode
lfence, mfence and sfence as "lock addl $0x0, (%[re]sp)".
* Add assembly-time relaxation option for ARC cpus.

- Add binutils-2.26-branch.diff, updates to branch head.
* Adds -mrelax-relocations on x86
* Fixes bso#19698
- Refresh cross-avr-nesc-as.patch
- Update to binutils 2.26
* Add --fix-stm32l4xx-629360 to the ARM linker to enable a link-time
workaround for a bug in the bus matrix / memory controller for some of
the STM32 Cortex-M4 based products (STM32L4xx)
* Add a configure option --enable-compressed-debug-sections={all,ld} to
decide whether DWARF debug sections should be compressed by default.
* Add support for the ARC EM/HS, and ARC600/700 architectures.
* Experimental support for linker garbage collection (--gc-sections)
has been enabled for COFF and PE based targets.
* New command line option for ELF targets to compress DWARF debug
sections, --compress-debug-sections=[none|zlib|zlib-gnu|zlib-gabi].
* New command line option, --orphan-handling=[place|warn|error|discard], to
adjust how orphan sections are handled. The default is 'place' which gives
the current behaviour, 'warn' and 'error' issue a warning or error
respectively when orphan sections are found, and 'discard' will discard all
orphan sections.
* Add support for LLVM plugin.
* Add --print-memory-usage option to report memory blocks usage.
* Add --require-defined option, it's like --undefined except the new symbol
must be defined by the end of the link.
* Add a configure option --enable-compressed-debug-sections={all,gas} to
decide whether DWARF debug sections should be compressed by default.
* Add support for the ARC EM/HS, and ARC600/700 architectures. Remove
assembler support for Argonaut RISC architectures.

- Update to binutils 2.25 release.
* Add --data option to strings to only print strings in loadable, initialized
data sections. Change the default behaviour to be --all, but add a new
configure time option of --disable-default-strings-all to restore the old
default behaviour.
* Add --include-all-whitespace to strings.
* Add --dump-section option to objcopy.
* Add support for the Andes NDS32.
* PE binaries now once again contain real timestamps by default. To disable
the inclusion of a timestamp in a PE binary, use the --no-insert-timestamp
command line option.
* Replace support for openrisc and or32 with support for or1k.
* Add support for the --build-id command line option to COFF based targets.
* x86/x86_64 pe-coff now supports the --build-id option.
* Add support for the AVR Tiny microcontrollers.
* Enhanced the ARM port to accept the assembler output from the CodeComposer
Studio tool. Support is enabled via the new command line option -mccs.
- Update to 2.25 branch head.
* Pulls PIE fixes.
- Minor fix on the usage of update-alternatives
