Alan Modra 165f707ac8 PR22471, undefined reference to linker-defined symbols
This patch processes linker script assignment statements before ld
opens DT_NEEDED libraries, in order to define symbols like __bss_start
that might also be defined by a library, falsely triggering an error
about "DSO missing from command line".

The initial value won't be correct when assigning a symbol from dot,
and I make no attempt to handle all expressions.  For example, an
assignment like "_start_foo = ADDR (.foo)" isn't valid until sections
are laid out, so won't define _start_foo early.  What's here should be
enough for most common scripts, and hopefully won't perturb fragile
scripts.

bfd/
	PR 22471
	* elflink.c (_bfd_elf_merge_symbol): Allow weak symbols to override
	early passes over linker script symbols.
	* linker.c (_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol): Allow symbols to
	override early passes over linker script symbols.  Clear ldscript_def
	on symbol definitions.
ld/
	PR 22471
	* ldexp.c (struct definedness_hash_entry): Delete "by_script".  Make
	"iteration" an 8-bit field, and update mask in all uses.
	(definedness_newfunc): Don't init "by_script".
	(update_definedness): Test ldscript_def rather than by_script.
	(is_sym_value): Likewise.
	(fold_name <DEFINED>): Return a result for first phase.  Test
	ldscript_def.
	(fold_name <NAME>): Return a result for first phase.
	* ldlang.c (open_input_bfds): Process all assignments, not just
	defsym.
	(lang_process): Increment lang_statement_iteration before
	open_input_bfds.
	* testsuite/ld-mips-elf/tlsdyn-o32-1.d: Adjust for larger .dynsym.
	* testsuite/ld-mips-elf/tlsdyn-o32-1.got: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-mips-elf/tlsdyn-o32-2.d: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-mips-elf/tlsdyn-o32-2.got: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-mips-elf/tlsdyn-o32-3.d: Likewise.

		   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.
