| |
| Version 0.29: |

| create section groups. ld works fine on files without section groups. |
| |
| Version 0.28: |
| |
| Fix problem with adding more section in elf_newscn. The section pointers |
| for the data buffers wasn't adjusted. |

| |
| Version 0.23: |
| |
| Fix a number of errors in ELF_C_WRITE handling. |

| |
| Add code to create ELF section header table to ld finalize routines. |
| |
| Version 0.21: |
| |
| Fix some problems with recursive handling of archives in libelf. |
| |

| libebl. |
| |
| readelf and nm use more libebl functions. |
| |
| Handle XINDEX correctly in nm and string. |
| |
| Add first machine ld backend library (i386). |
| Use it. Recognize -r and --shared. Avoid using -lxxx parameters for -r. |

| output file type. Reorganize callback initialization in ld. |
| |
| Version 0.20: |
| |
| Fix some memory leaks in libelf. |
| |
| Version 0.19: |
| |
| Implement reading version script. Both inside linker scripts and via the |
| --version-script command line parameter. Uses the same code. |
| What remains to be done is to implement a data structure which allows |
| efficient matching against the version names to decide which pattern |
| matches. |
| |
| Beginning of output generation and output writing functions. |
| |
| Version 0.18: |
| |
| Finish implementation for DSO input file handling. Implement rpath, runpath, |
| and LD_LIBRARY_PATH handling. |
| |
| Version 0.17: |
| |
| make handling of e_shnum overflow in libelf standard conforming |
| |
| ld now actually can handle DSOs in linker scripts. Handling of DT_RUNPATH, |
| DT_RPATH, -rpath, -rpath-link still remains to be implemented. |
| |
| fix handling of -L parameters. Make actual use of the default_paths element. |
| |
| make re-definition of symbols in and from DSO compatible with existing linker |
| |
| Version 0.16: |
| |
| more work on assigning input sections to output sections. |
| |
| Add gelf_xlatetof and gelf_xlatetom which were accidently left out. |
| |
| Fix memory handling of section headers. |

| Collect input sections in list for the output section according to the rules |
| specified in the linker script. |
| |
| Version 0.14: |
| |
| Fix some problems in the internal list handling which had the result |
| that we didn't look for some of the unresolved symbols. |
| |
| Free some memory if we know we don't need it anymore. |
| |
| Optimize the list of unresolved symbols. Throw out symbols which are |
| meanwhile resolved. |
| |
| Version 0.13: |
| |
| Got file reading correct now. The files are all read while parsing |
| the parameters. No creating of data structures to describe the linker |
| command line. The symbol table is built up while reading the files. |
| DSOs are handled now. -( -) handling is optimized. |
| |
| Version 0.12: |
| |
| Linker read linker scripts everywhere. Handles --whole-archive. Recognizes |
| --dynamic and --static. Collects defined and undefined symbols. Recognizes |
| conflicts. |
| |
| libebl now defines functions to call the callbacks. Add generic name handling |
| in these new functions. Remove the code from readelf and call the new |
| functions. |
