30 Linker Functions
32 @cindex Linker
33 The linker uses three special entry points in the BFD target
34 vector. It is not necessary to write special routines for
35 these entry points when creating a new BFD back end, since
36 generic versions are provided. However, writing them can
37 speed up linking and make it use significantly less runtime
38 memory.
40 The first routine creates a hash table used by the other
41 routines. The second routine adds the symbols from an object
42 file to the hash table. The third routine takes all the
43 object files and links them together to create the output
44 file. These routines are designed so that the linker proper
45 does not need to know anything about the symbols in the object
46 files that it is linking. The linker merely arranges the
47 sections as directed by the linker script and lets BFD handle
48 the details of symbols and relocs.
50 The second routine and third routines are passed a pointer to
51 a <<struct bfd_link_info>> structure (defined in
52 <<bfdlink.h>>) which holds information relevant to the link,
53 including the linker hash table (which was created by the
54 first routine) and a set of callback functions to the linker
55 proper.
57 The generic linker routines are in <<linker.c>>, and use the
58 header file <<genlink.h>>. As of this writing, the only back
59 ends which have implemented versions of these routines are
60 a.out (in <<aoutx.h>>) and ECOFF (in <<ecoff.c>>). The a.out
61 routines are used as examples throughout this section.

76 The linker routines must create a hash table, which must be
77 derived from <<struct bfd_link_hash_table>> described in
78 <<bfdlink.c>>. @xref{Hash Tables}, for information on how to
79 create a derived hash table. This entry point is called using
80 the target vector of the linker output file.
82 The <<_bfd_link_hash_table_create>> entry point must allocate
83 and initialize an instance of the desired hash table. If the
84 back end does not require any additional information to be
85 stored with the entries in the hash table, the entry point may
86 simply create a <<struct bfd_link_hash_table>>. Most likely,
87 however, some additional information will be needed.
89 For example, with each entry in the hash table the a.out
90 linker keeps the index the symbol has in the final output file
91 (this index number is used so that when doing a relocatable
92 link the symbol index used in the output file can be quickly
93 filled in when copying over a reloc). The a.out linker code
94 defines the required structures and functions for a hash table
95 derived from <<struct bfd_link_hash_table>>. The a.out linker
96 hash table is created by the function
97 <<NAME(aout,link_hash_table_create)>>; it simply allocates
98 space for the hash table, initializes it, and returns a
99 pointer to it.
101 When writing the linker routines for a new back end, you will
102 generally not know exactly which fields will be required until
103 you have finished. You should simply create a new hash table
104 which defines no additional fields, and then simply add fields
105 as they become necessary.

114 The linker proper will call the <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>>
115 entry point for each object file or archive which is to be
116 linked (typically these are the files named on the command
117 line, but some may also come from the linker script). The
118 entry point is responsible for examining the file. For an
119 object file, BFD must add any relevant symbol information to
120 the hash table. For an archive, BFD must determine which
121 elements of the archive should be used and adding them to the
122 link.
124 The a.out version of this entry point is
125 <<NAME(aout,link_add_symbols)>>.

136 Differing file formats
138 Normally all the files involved in a link will be of the same
139 format, but it is also possible to link together different
140 format object files, and the back end must support that. The
141 <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> entry point is called via the target
142 vector of the file to be added. This has an important
143 consequence: the function may not assume that the hash table
144 is the type created by the corresponding
145 <<_bfd_link_hash_table_create>> vector. All the
146 <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> function can assume about the hash
147 table is that it is derived from <<struct
148 bfd_link_hash_table>>.
150 Sometimes the <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> function must store
151 some information in the hash table entry to be used by the
152 <<_bfd_final_link>> function. In such a case the <<creator>>
153 field of the hash table must be checked to make sure that the
154 hash table was created by an object file of the same format.
156 The <<_bfd_final_link>> routine must be prepared to handle a
157 hash entry without any extra information added by the
158 <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> function. A hash entry without
159 extra information will also occur when the linker script
160 directs the linker to create a symbol. Note that, regardless
161 of how a hash table entry is added, all the fields will be
162 initialized to some sort of null value by the hash table entry
163 initialization function.
165 See <<ecoff_link_add_externals>> for an example of how to
166 check the <<creator>> field before saving information (in this
167 case, the ECOFF external symbol debugging information) in a
168 hash table entry.

172 SUBSUBSECTION
173 Adding symbols from an object file
175 When the <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> routine is passed an object
176 file, it must add all externally visible symbols in that
177 object file to the hash table. The actual work of adding the
178 symbol to the hash table is normally handled by the function
179 <<_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol>>. The
180 <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> routine is responsible for reading
181 all the symbols from the object file and passing the correct
182 information to <<_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol>>.
184 The <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> routine should not use
185 <<bfd_canonicalize_symtab>> to read the symbols. The point of
186 providing this routine is to avoid the overhead of converting
187 the symbols into generic <<asymbol>> structures.
189 @findex _bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol
190 <<_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol>> handles the details of
191 combining common symbols, warning about multiple definitions,
192 and so forth. It takes arguments which describe the symbol to
193 add, notably symbol flags, a section, and an offset. The
194 symbol flags include such things as <<BSF_WEAK>> or
195 <<BSF_INDIRECT>>. The section is a section in the object
196 file, or something like <<bfd_und_section_ptr>> for an undefined
197 symbol or <<bfd_com_section_ptr>> for a common symbol.
199 If the <<_bfd_final_link>> routine is also going to need to
200 read the symbol information, the <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>>
201 routine should save it somewhere attached to the object file
202 BFD. However, the information should only be saved if the
203 <<keep_memory>> field of the <<info>> argument is TRUE, so
204 that the <<-no-keep-memory>> linker switch is effective.
206 The a.out function which adds symbols from an object file is
207 <<aout_link_add_object_symbols>>, and most of the interesting
208 work is in <<aout_link_add_symbols>>. The latter saves
209 pointers to the hash tables entries created by
210 <<_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol>> indexed by symbol number,
211 so that the <<_bfd_final_link>> routine does not have to call
212 the hash table lookup routine to locate the entry.

216 SUBSUBSECTION
217 Adding symbols from an archive
219 When the <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> routine is passed an
220 archive, it must look through the symbols defined by the
221 archive and decide which elements of the archive should be
222 included in the link. For each such element it must call the
223 <<add_archive_element>> linker callback, and it must add the
224 symbols from the object file to the linker hash table.
226 @findex _bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols
227 In most cases the work of looking through the symbols in the
228 archive should be done by the
229 <<_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols>> function. This
230 function builds a hash table from the archive symbol table and
231 looks through the list of undefined symbols to see which
232 elements should be included.
233 <<_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols>> is passed a function
234 to call to make the final decision about adding an archive
235 element to the link and to do the actual work of adding the
236 symbols to the linker hash table.
238 The function passed to
239 <<_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols>> must read the
240 symbols of the archive element and decide whether the archive
241 element should be included in the link. If the element is to
242 be included, the <<add_archive_element>> linker callback
243 routine must be called with the element as an argument, and
244 the elements symbols must be added to the linker hash table
245 just as though the element had itself been passed to the
246 <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> function.
248 When the a.out <<_bfd_link_add_symbols>> function receives an
249 archive, it calls <<_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols>>
250 passing <<aout_link_check_archive_element>> as the function
251 argument. <<aout_link_check_archive_element>> calls
252 <<aout_link_check_ar_symbols>>. If the latter decides to add
253 the element (an element is only added if it provides a real,
254 non-common, definition for a previously undefined or common
255 symbol) it calls the <<add_archive_element>> callback and then
256 <<aout_link_check_archive_element>> calls
257 <<aout_link_add_symbols>> to actually add the symbols to the
258 linker hash table.
260 The ECOFF back end is unusual in that it does not normally
261 call <<_bfd_generic_link_add_archive_symbols>>, because ECOFF
262 archives already contain a hash table of symbols. The ECOFF
263 back end searches the archive itself to avoid the overhead of
264 creating a new hash table.

273 When all the input files have been processed, the linker calls
274 the <<_bfd_final_link>> entry point of the output BFD. This
275 routine is responsible for producing the final output file,
276 which has several aspects. It must relocate the contents of
277 the input sections and copy the data into the output sections.
278 It must build an output symbol table including any local
279 symbols from the input files and the global symbols from the
280 hash table. When producing relocatable output, it must
281 modify the input relocs and write them into the output file.
282 There may also be object format dependent work to be done.
284 The linker will also call the <<write_object_contents>> entry
285 point when the BFD is closed. The two entry points must work
286 together in order to produce the correct output file.
288 The details of how this works are inevitably dependent upon
289 the specific object file format. The a.out
290 <<_bfd_final_link>> routine is <<NAME(aout,final_link)>>.

301 Information provided by the linker
303 Before the linker calls the <<_bfd_final_link>> entry point,
304 it sets up some data structures for the function to use.
306 The <<input_bfds>> field of the <<bfd_link_info>> structure
307 will point to a list of all the input files included in the
308 link. These files are linked through the <<link_next>> field
309 of the <<bfd>> structure.
311 Each section in the output file will have a list of
312 <<link_order>> structures attached to the <<link_order_head>>
313 field (the <<link_order>> structure is defined in
314 <<bfdlink.h>>). These structures describe how to create the
315 contents of the output section in terms of the contents of
316 various input sections, fill constants, and, eventually, other
317 types of information. They also describe relocs that must be
318 created by the BFD backend, but do not correspond to any input
319 file; this is used to support -Ur, which builds constructors
320 while generating a relocatable object file.

325 Relocating the section contents
327 The <<_bfd_final_link>> function should look through the
328 <<link_order>> structures attached to each section of the
329 output file. Each <<link_order>> structure should either be
330 handled specially, or it should be passed to the function
331 <<_bfd_default_link_order>> which will do the right thing
332 (<<_bfd_default_link_order>> is defined in <<linker.c>>).
334 For efficiency, a <<link_order>> of type
335 <<bfd_indirect_link_order>> whose associated section belongs
336 to a BFD of the same format as the output BFD must be handled
337 specially. This type of <<link_order>> describes part of an
338 output section in terms of a section belonging to one of the
339 input files. The <<_bfd_final_link>> function should read the
340 contents of the section and any associated relocs, apply the
341 relocs to the section contents, and write out the modified
342 section contents. If performing a relocatable link, the
343 relocs themselves must also be modified and written out.
345 @findex _bfd_relocate_contents
346 @findex _bfd_final_link_relocate
347 The functions <<_bfd_relocate_contents>> and
348 <<_bfd_final_link_relocate>> provide some general support for
349 performing the actual relocations, notably overflow checking.
350 Their arguments include information about the symbol the
351 relocation is against and a <<reloc_howto_type>> argument
352 which describes the relocation to perform. These functions
353 are defined in <<reloc.c>>.
355 The a.out function which handles reading, relocating, and
356 writing section contents is <<aout_link_input_section>>. The
357 actual relocation is done in <<aout_link_input_section_std>>
358 and <<aout_link_input_section_ext>>.

363 Writing the symbol table
365 The <<_bfd_final_link>> function must gather all the symbols
366 in the input files and write them out. It must also write out
367 all the symbols in the global hash table. This must be
368 controlled by the <<strip>> and <<discard>> fields of the
369 <<bfd_link_info>> structure.
371 The local symbols of the input files will not have been
372 entered into the linker hash table. The <<_bfd_final_link>>
373 routine must consider each input file and include the symbols
374 in the output file. It may be convenient to do this when
375 looking through the <<link_order>> structures, or it may be
376 done by stepping through the <<input_bfds>> list.
378 The <<_bfd_final_link>> routine must also traverse the global
379 hash table to gather all the externally visible symbols. It
380 is possible that most of the externally visible symbols may be
381 written out when considering the symbols of each input file,
382 but it is still necessary to traverse the hash table since the
383 linker script may have defined some symbols that are not in
384 any of the input files.
386 The <<strip>> field of the <<bfd_link_info>> structure
387 controls which symbols are written out. The possible values
388 are listed in <<bfdlink.h>>. If the value is <<strip_some>>,
389 then the <<keep_hash>> field of the <<bfd_link_info>>
390 structure is a hash table of symbols to keep; each symbol
391 should be looked up in this hash table, and only symbols which
392 are present should be included in the output file.
394 If the <<strip>> field of the <<bfd_link_info>> structure
395 permits local symbols to be written out, the <<discard>> field
396 is used to further controls which local symbols are included
397 in the output file. If the value is <<discard_l>>, then all
398 local symbols which begin with a certain prefix are discarded;
399 this is controlled by the <<bfd_is_local_label_name>> entry point.
401 The a.out backend handles symbols by calling
402 <<aout_link_write_symbols>> on each input BFD and then
403 traversing the global hash table with the function
404 <<aout_link_write_other_symbol>>. It builds a string table
405 while writing out the symbols, which is written to the output
406 file at the end of <<NAME(aout,final_link)>>.

925 common symbols and searches the archive symbol table for them. If
926 it finds an entry, it includes the associated object file in the
927 link.
929 The old linker looked through the archive symbol table for
930 undefined symbols. We do it the other way around, looking through
931 undefined symbols for symbols defined in the archive. The
932 advantage of the newer scheme is that we only have to look through
933 the list of undefined symbols once, whereas the old method had to
934 re-search the symbol table each time a new object file was added.
936 The CHECKFN argument is used to see if an object file should be
937 included. CHECKFN should set *PNEEDED to TRUE if the object file
938 should be included, and must also call the bfd_link_info
939 add_archive_element callback function and handle adding the symbols
940 to the global hash table. CHECKFN should only return FALSE if some
941 sort of error occurs.
943 For some formats, such as a.out, it is possible to look through an
944 object file but not actually include it in the link. The
945 archive_pass field in a BFD is used to avoid checking the symbols
946 of an object files too many times. When an object is included in
947 the link, archive_pass is set to -1. If an object is scanned but
948 not included, archive_pass is set to the pass number. The pass
949 number is incremented each time a new object file is included. The
950 pass number is used because when a new object file is included it
951 may create new undefined symbols which cause a previously examined
952 object file to be included. */
