Maciej W. Rozycki 5ff6a06c21 GAS: Consistently fix labels at the `.end' pseudo-op
Fix a functional regression with the `.end' pseudo-op, introduced with
commit ecb4347adecd ("Last take: approval for MIPS_STABS_ELF killing"),
<https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2002-06/msg00443.html>, and commit
dcd410fe1544 ("GNU as 2.14 on IRIX 6: crashes with shared libs"),
<https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2003-07/msg00415.html>, which caused
symbol values for labels placed between the end of a function's contents
and its terminating `.end' followed by one of the alignment pseudo-ops
to be different depending on whether either `-mdebug', or `-mno-pdr', or
neither of the command-line options is in effect, be it implied or
specified.

Given debug-label-end.s as follows and the `mips-linux' target we have:

$ cat debug-label-end.s
	.text

	.globl	foo
	.globl	bar
	.align	4, 0
	.ent	foo
foo:
	nop
	.aent	bar
bar:
	.insn
	.end	foo
	.align	4, 0
	.space	16

	.globl	baz
	.ent	baz
baz:
	nop
	.end	baz
	.align	4, 0
	.space	16
$ as -o debug-label-end.o debug-label-end.s
$ readelf -s debug-label-end.o | grep bar
     9: 00000004     0 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT    1 bar
$ as -mdebug -o debug-label-end.o debug-label-end.s
$ readelf -s debug-label-end.o | grep bar
     9: 00000010     0 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT    1 bar
$ as -mno-pdr -o debug-label-end.o debug-label-end.s
$ readelf -s debug-label-end.o | grep bar
     8: 00000010     0 FUNC    GLOBAL DEFAULT    1 bar
$

The reason is the call to `md_flush_pending_output', which in the case
of `mips*-*-*' targets expands to `mips_emit_delays', which in turn
calls `mips_no_prev_insn', which calls `mips_clear_insn_labels', which
clears the list of outstanding labels.  That list is in turn consulted
in `mips_align', called in the interpretation of alignment directives,
and the labels adjusted to the current location.

A call to `md_flush_pending_output' is only made from `s_mips_end' and
then only if `-mpdr' is in effect, which is the default for `*-*-linux*'
and some other `mips*-*-*' targets.  A call to `md_flush_pending_output'
is never made from `ecoff_directive_end', which is used in place of
`s_mips_end' when `-mdebug' is in effect.  Consequently if `-mno-pdr' or
`-mdebug' is in effect the list of outstanding labels makes it through
to any alignment directive that follows and the labels are differently
interpreted depending on the command-lines options used.  And we want
code produced to be always the same.

Call `md_flush_pending_output' unconditionally then in `s_mips_end' and
add such a call from `ecoff_directive_end' as well, as long as the macro
is defined.  While `ecoff_directive_end' is shared among targets, the
only one other than `mips*-*-*' actually using it is `alpha*-*-*' and it
does not define `md_flush_pending_output'.  So the semantics isn't going
to change for it and neither it has to have its `s_alpha_end' updated
or have code in `ecoff_directive_end' conditionalized.

		   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.
