Hi,
Although the patchset works fine (if I add the checks for HAVE_GET[GU]ID) when building .exe files on pe targets, it fails when building dll's (segfault in bfd/bfdio.c:bfd_bread when forwarding args to iovec->bread)
With binutils built with CFLAGS="-g -O2", gcc-3.4.0, mingw32:
cat > foo.c int foo = 1; ^Z gcc -shared -ofoo.dll foo.c
raises the segfault in bfd_bread.
Actually, the above testcase fails since your 21-April patch.
The problem occurs when pe-dll.c code calls bread with a NULL file, asking for zero bytes
(see comment in cache.c:cache_bread).
The problem can be avoided by doing the cache_bread FIXME in bfd_bread, ie:
*** bfdio.c.cagney Mon May 03 10:02:13 2004
--- bfdio.c Tue May 04 11:26:40 2004
*************** bfd_bread (void *ptr, bfd_size_type size
*** 104,109 ****
--- 104,113 ----
{
size_t nread;
+ /* See FIXME in cache.c:cache_bread(). */
+ if (size == 0)
+ return 0;
+ nread = abfd->iovec->bread (abfd, ptr, size);
if (nread != (size_t) -1)
abfd->where += nread;
With above patch, simple dll build is okay. But this looks a bit strange in peicode.h:pe_ILF_build_a_bfd()
+ vars.bim = _bfd_in_memory (abfd, abfd->flags, vars.bim->buffer, + vars.bim->size);
Should that be:
vars.bim = _bfd_in_memory (abfd, abfd->flags, bim.buffer, bim.size);
