Alan Modra 4d1823674e PR26389, nm prints "c" for a common symbol with -flto and -fcommon
git commit 49d9fd42acef chose to make nm print 'C' for the normal
common section, and 'c' for other commons.  This was an attempt to
make common symbols in .scommon and other small common sections show
a 'c' type without a section name comparison, but it failed for
nm --plugin on lto objects where normal common symbols are stashed in
a "plug" section.  It's also wrong for large common symbols.  So
instead set SEC_SMALL_DATA on sections created for small commons, and
key off that flag to show 'c' type.  If your ELF target doesn't have
an elf_backend_symbol_processing function, then you won't see 'c' for
symbols in .scommon.

Note that due to bfd_decode_symclass decoding common symbols without
a chance for coff_section_type to treat .scommon specially, then
having .scommon in the array of special sections handled by
coff_section_type prior to 49d9fd42acef was entirely ineffective.
That fact escaped me when writing 49d9fd42acef.  Unless .scommon
didn't have SEC_IS_COMMON set, which would be a little weird.

	PR 26389
	* syms.c (bfd_decode_symclass): Choose 'c' for commons only when
	SEC_SMALL_DATA.
	* elf32-m32r.c (_bfd_m32r_elf_symbol_processing): Set SEC_SMALL_DATA
	on small common section.
	* elf32-score.c (s3_bfd_score_elf_symbol_processing): Likewise.
	* elf32-score7.c (s7_bfd_score_elf_symbol_processing): Likewise.
	* elf32-tic6x.c (elf32_tic6x_symbol_processing): Likewise.
	* elf32-v850.c (v850_elf_symbol_processing): Likewise.
	* elfxx-mips.c (_bfd_mips_elf_symbol_processing): Likewise.
	* ecoff.c (ecoff_set_symbol_info, ecoff_link_add_externals): 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.
