SFrame version 2 encodes the size of repetitive insn block explicitly
in the format. Add information in the SFrame FDE to convey the size
of the block of repeating instructions. This information is used only
for SFrame FDEs of type SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_PCMASK.
Introduce two extra bytes for padding: this ensures that the memory
accesses to the members of the SFrame Frame Descriptor Entry (FDE) are
naturally aligned.
gas generates SFrame section with version SFRAME_VERSION_2 by default.
libsframe provides two new APIs to:
- get an SFrame FDE data from the decoder context, and
- add an SFrame FDE to the encoder context.
The additional argument (for rep_block_size) is useful for SFrame FDEs
where FDE type is SFRAME_FDE_TYPE_PCMASK.
The linker will generate the output SFrame sections in the
SFRAME_VERSION_2 format. If the input sections offered to the linker
are not all in the SFRAME_VERSION_2 format, the linker issues an error
to the user.
objdump/readelf will show the following message to the user if .sframe
section in SFRAME_VERSION_1 format is seen:
"No further information can be displayed. SFrame version not
supported."
In other words, like the rest of the binutils, only the current SFrame
format version, i.e., SFRAME_VERSION_2 is supported by the textual dump
facilities.

This is an incompatible ABI change in libsframe.
The interface provided by this function is not a healthy abstraction to
expose: the return type sframe_func_desc_entry, which is defined in
include/sframe.h (the SFrame binary format definition). This ties up
the library in a undesirable way. Most importantly, this function
should technically not be directly necessary for a stack tracer. A
stack tracer will likely only need to do a sframe_find_fre ().
Rename the API to continue to use the functionality internally in the
library. bfd/linker does not use this function.
Change the return type of the previous definition and make a note about
its planned deprecation.

An earlier commit 3f107464 defined the SFRAME_FRE_TYPE_*_LIMIT
constants. These constants are used (by gas and libsframe) to pick an
SFrame FRE type based on the function size. Those constants, however,
were buggy, causing the generated SFrame sections to be bloated as
SFRAME_FRE_TYPE_ADDR2/SFRAME_FRE_TYPE_ADDR4 got chosen more often than
necessary.

The newer update-copyright.py fixes file encoding too, removing cr/lf
on binutils/bfdtest2.c and ld/testsuite/ld-cygwin/exe-export.exp, and
embedded cr in binutils/testsuite/binutils-all/ar.exp string match.
There are two places where unaligned loads were seen on aarch64:
- #1. access to the SFrame FRE stack offsets in the in-memory
representation/abstraction provided by libsframe.
- #2. access to the SFrame FRE start address in the on-disk representation
of the frame row entry.
For #1, we can fix this by reordering the struct members of
sframe_frame_row_entry in libsframe/sframe-api.h.
For #2, we need to default to using memcpy instead, and copy out the bytes
to a location for output.
SFrame format is an unaligned on-disk format. As such, there are other blobs
of memory in the on-disk SFrame FRE that are on not on their natural
boundaries. But that does not pose further problems yet, because the users
are provided access to the on-disk SFrame FRE data via libsframe's
sframe_frame_row_entry, the latter has its' struct members aligned on their
respective natural boundaries (and initialized using memcpy).

The linker merges all the input .sframe sections. When merging, the
linker verifies that all the input .sframe sections have the same
abi/arch.
The linker uses libsframe library to perform key actions on the
.sframe sections - decode, read, and create output data. This
implies buildsystem changes to make and install libsframe before
libbfd.
The linker places the output .sframe section in a new segment of its
own: PT_GNU_SFRAME. A new segment is not added, however, if the
generated .sframe section is empty.
When a section is discarded from the final link, the corresponding
entries in the .sframe section for those functions are also deleted.
The linker sorts the SFrame FDEs on start address by default and sets
the SFRAME_F_FDE_SORTED flag in the .sframe section.
This patch also adds support for generation of SFrame unwind
information for the .plt* sections on x86_64. SFrame unwind info is
generated for IBT enabled PLT, lazy/non-lazy PLT.
The existing linker option --no-ld-generated-unwind-info has been
adapted to include the control of whether .sframe unwind information
will be generated for the linker generated sections like PLT.
Changes to the linker script have been made as necessary.

libsframe is a library that allows you to:
- decode a .sframe section
- probe and inspect a .sframe section
- encode (and eventually write) a .sframe section.
This library is currently being used by the linker, readelf, objdump.
This library will also be used by the SFrame unwinder which is still
to be upstream'd.
The file include/sframe-api.h defines the user-facing APIs for decoding,
encoding and probing .sframe sections. A set of error codes together
with their error message strings are also defined.
Endian flipping is performed automatically at read and write time, if
cross-endianness is detected.
