Alan Modra 0441f94fba PR28827, assertion building LLVM 9 on powerpc64le-linux-gnu
The assertion is this one in ppc_build_one_stub
  BFD_ASSERT (stub_entry->stub_offset >= stub_entry->group->stub_sec->size);
It is checking that a stub doesn't overwrite the tail of a previous
stub, so not something trivial.

Normally, stub sizing iterates until no stubs are added, detected by
no change in stub section size.  Iteration also continues if no stubs
are added but one or more stubs increases in size, which also can be
detected by a change in stub section size.  But there is a
pathological case where stub section sizing decreases one iteration
then increases the next.  To handle that situation, stub sizing also
stops at more than STUB_SHRINK_ITER (20) iterations when calculated
stub section size is smaller.  The previous larger size is kept for
the actual layout (so that building the stubs, which behaves like
another iteration of stub sizing, will see the stub section sizes
shrink).  The problem with that stopping condition is that it assumes
that stub sizing is only affected by addresses external to the stub
sections, which isn't always true.

This patch fixes that by also keeping larger individual stub_offset
addresses past STUB_SHRINK_ITER.  It also catches a further
pathological case where one stub shrinks and another expands in such a
way that no stub section size change is seen.

	PR 28827
	* elf64-ppc.c (struct ppc_link_hash_table): Add stub_changed.
	(STUB_SHRINK_ITER): Move earlier in file.
	(ppc_size_one_stub): Detect any change in stub_offset.  Keep
	larger one if past STUB_SHRINK_ITER.
	(ppc64_elf_size_stubs): Iterate on stub_changed too.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
