Nick Alcock abed0b0718 libctf: warn about information loss because of unreleased format changes
In the last cycle there have been various changes that have replaced
parts of the CTF format with other parts without format
compatibility.  This was not a compat break, because the old format was
never accepted by any version of libctf (the not-in-official-release CTF
compiler patch was emitting an invalid func info section), but
nonetheless it can confuse users using that patch if they link together
object files and find the func info sections in the inputs silently
disappearing.

Scan the linker inputs for this problem and emit a warning if any are
found.

* configure.ac (BFD_LIBADD): Remove.
(BFD_DEPENDENCIES): Likewise. Remove associated cases.
(SHARED_LIBADD): Rename to...
(CTF_LIBADD): ... this. Stick in a suitable libiberty even when
linking statically.
* Makefile.am (libctf_nobfd_la_LIBADD): Adjust accordingly.
libctf uses libintl.

BFD_LIBADD.
(libctf_la_DEPENDENCIES): Remove.

2021-01-05 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com>
* ctf-decl.c (ctf_decl_push): Exclude slices from the decl stack.

Get the errno value for non-representable types right. Do not print
bitfield info for non-bitfields. Improve the format and indentation
of other type output. Shuffle spacing around to make all indentation
either 'width of column' or 4 chars.
(ctf_dump_label): Pass CTF_FT_REFS to ctf_dump_format_type.
(ctf_dump_objts): Likewise. Spacing shuffle.
(ctf_dump_var): Likewise.
(type_hex_digits): Migrate down in the file, to above its new user.
(ctf_dump_type): Indent here instead. Pass CTF_FT_REFS to
ctf_dump_format_type. Don't trim off excess linefeeds now we no
longer generate them. Dump enumerated types.
2021-01-05 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com>
* ctf-types.c (ctf_type_resolve): Improve comment.
(ctf_type_size): Yield ECTF_INCOMPLETE when applied to forwards.
Emit errors into the right dict.
(ctf_type_align): Likewise.
* ctf-create.c (ctf_add_member_offset): Yield ECTF_INCOMPLETE
when adding a member without explicit offset when this member, or
the previous member, is incomplete.
* ctf-dump.c (ctf_dump_format_type): Do not try to print the size of
forwards.
(ctf_dump_member): Do not try to print their alignment.
2021-01-05 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com>
* ctf-dump.c (ctf_dump_objts): Dump by calling ctf_dump_format_type.
(ctf_dump_format_type): Don't emit the size for function objects.
Dump the element type of arrays like we dump the pointed-to type of
pointers, etc.
2021-01-05 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com>
* ctf-dump.c (ctf_dump_format_type): Add 0x to hex type IDs.
(ctf_dump_header): Add 0x to the hex magic number.
(ctf_dump_str): Add 0x to the hex string offsets.
(ctf_dump_membstate_t) <cdm_toplevel_indent>: New.
(ctf_dump_type): Adjust. Free it when we're done.
(type_hex_digits): New.
(ctf_dump_member): Align output depending on the width of the type
ID being generated. Use printf padding, not a loop, to generate
indentation.
2021-01-05 Nick Alcock <nick.alcock@oracle.com>
