@cindex BFD
|
|
@cindex what is it?
|
|
BFD is a package which allows applications to use the
|
|
same routines to operate on object files whatever the object file
|
|
format. A new object file format can be supported simply by
|
|
creating a new BFD back end and adding it to the library.
|
|
|
|
BFD is split into two parts: the front end, and the back ends (one for
|
|
each object file format).
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item The front end of BFD provides the interface to the user. It manages
|
|
memory and various canonical data structures. The front end also
|
|
decides which back end to use and when to call back end routines.
|
|
@item The back ends provide BFD its view of the real world. Each back
|
|
end provides a set of calls which the BFD front end can use to maintain
|
|
its canonical form. The back ends also may keep around information for
|
|
their own use, for greater efficiency.

@section History
|
|
|
|
One spur behind BFD was the desire, on the part of the GNU 960 team at
|
|
Intel Oregon, for interoperability of applications on their COFF and
|
|
b.out file formats. Cygnus was providing GNU support for the team, and
|
|
was contracted to provide the required functionality.
|
|
|
|
The name came from a conversation David Wallace was having with Richard
|
|
Stallman about the library: RMS said that it would be quite hard---David
|
|
said ``BFD''. Stallman was right, but the name stuck.
|
|
|
|
At the same time, Ready Systems wanted much the same thing, but for
|
|
different object file formats: IEEE-695, Oasys, Srecords, a.out and 68k
|
|
coff.
|
|
|
|
BFD was first implemented by members of Cygnus Support; Steve
|
|
Chamberlain (@code{sac@@cygnus.com}), John Gilmore
|
|
(@code{gnu@@cygnus.com}), K. Richard Pixley (@code{rich@@cygnus.com})
|
|
and David Henkel-Wallace (@code{gumby@@cygnus.com}).

@node How It Works, What BFD Version 2 Can Do, History, Overview
|
|
@section How To Use BFD
|
|
|
|
To use the library, include @file{bfd.h} and link with @file{libbfd.a}.
|
|
|
|
BFD provides a common interface to the parts of an object file
|
|
for a calling application.
|
|
|
|
When an application sucessfully opens a target file (object, archive, or
|
|
whatever), a pointer to an internal structure is returned. This pointer
|
|
points to a structure called @code{bfd}, described in
|
|
@file{bfd.h}. Our convention is to call this pointer a BFD, and
|
|
instances of it within code @code{abfd}. All operations on
|
|
the target object file are applied as methods to the BFD. The mapping is
|
|
defined within @code{bfd.h} in a set of macros, all beginning
|
|
with @samp{bfd_} to reduce namespace pollution.
|
|
|
|
For example, this sequence does what you would probably expect:
|
|
return the number of sections in an object file attached to a BFD
|
|
@code{abfd}.
|
|
|
|
@lisp
|
|
@c @cartouche
|
|
#include "bfd.h"
|
|
|
|
unsigned int number_of_sections(abfd)
|
|
bfd *abfd;
|
|
@{
|
|
return bfd_count_sections(abfd);
|
|
@}
|
|
@c @end cartouche
|
|
@end lisp
|
|
|
|
The abstraction used within BFD is that an object file has:
|
|
|
|
@itemize @bullet
|
|
@item
|
|
a header,
|
|
@item
|
|
a number of sections containing raw data (@pxref{Sections}),
|
|
@item
|
|
a set of relocations (@pxref{Relocations}), and
|
|
@item
|
|
some symbol information (@pxref{Symbols}).
|
|
@end itemize
|
|
@noindent
|
|
Also, BFDs opened for archives have the additional attribute of an index
|
|
and contain subordinate BFDs. This approach is fine for a.out and coff,
|
|
but loses efficiency when applied to formats such as S-records and
|
|
IEEE-695.

|
@section Memory usage
|
|
BFD keeps all of its internal structures in obstacks. There is one obstack
|
|
per open BFD file, into which the current state is stored. When a BFD is
|
|
closed, the obstack is deleted, and so everything which has been
|
|
allocated by BFD for the closing file is thrown away.
|
|
|
|
BFD does not free anything created by an application, but pointers into
|
|
@code{bfd} structures become invalid on a @code{bfd_close}; for example,
|
|
after a @code{bfd_close} the vector passed to
|
|
@code{bfd_canonicalize_symtab} is still around, since it has been
|
|
allocated by the application, but the data that it pointed to are
|
|
lost.
|
|
|
|
The general rule is to not close a BFD until all operations dependent
|
|
upon data from the BFD have been completed, or all the data from within
|
|
the file has been copied. To help with the management of memory, there
|
|
is a function (@code{bfd_alloc_size}) which returns the number of bytes
|
|
in obstacks associated with the supplied BFD. This could be used to
|
|
select the greediest open BFD, close it to reclaim the memory, perform
|
|
some operation and reopen the BFD again, to get a fresh copy of the data
|
|
structures.

0. PREAMBLE
|
|
|
|
The purpose of this License is to make a manual, textbook, or other
|
|
written document "free" in the sense of freedom: to assure everyone
|
|
the effective freedom to copy and redistribute it, with or without
|
|
modifying it, either commercially or noncommercially. Secondarily,
|
|
this License preserves for the author and publisher a way to get
|
|
credit for their work, while not being considered responsible for
|
|
modifications made by others.
|
|
|
|
This License is a kind of "copyleft", which means that derivative
|
|
works of the document must themselves be free in the same sense. It
|
|
complements the GNU General Public License, which is a copyleft
|
|
license designed for free software.
|
|
|
|
We have designed this License in order to use it for manuals for free
|
|
software, because free software needs free documentation: a free
|
|
program should come with manuals providing the same freedoms that the
|
|
software does. But this License is not limited to software manuals;
|
|
it can be used for any textual work, regardless of subject matter or
|
|
whether it is published as a printed book. We recommend this License
|
|
principally for works whose purpose is instruction or reference.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. APPLICABILITY AND DEFINITIONS
|
|
|
|
This License applies to any manual or other work that contains a
|
|
notice placed by the copyright holder saying it can be distributed
|
|
under the terms of this License. The "Document", below, refers to any
|
|
such manual or work. Any member of the public is a licensee, and is
|
|
addressed as "you".
|
|
|
|
A "Modified Version" of the Document means any work containing the
|
|
Document or a portion of it, either copied verbatim, or with
|
|
modifications and/or translated into another language.
|
|
|
|
A "Secondary Section" is a named appendix or a front-matter section of
|
|
the Document that deals exclusively with the relationship of the
|
|
publishers or authors of the Document to the Document's overall subject
|
|
(or to related matters) and contains nothing that could fall directly
|
|
within that overall subject. (For example, if the Document is in part a
|
|
textbook of mathematics, a Secondary Section may not explain any
|
|
mathematics.) The relationship could be a matter of historical
|
|
connection with the subject or with related matters, or of legal,
|
|
commercial, philosophical, ethical or political position regarding
|
|
them.
|
|
|
|
The "Invariant Sections" are certain Secondary Sections whose titles
|
|
are designated, as being those of Invariant Sections, in the notice
|
|
that says that the Document is released under this License.
|
|
|
|
The "Cover Texts" are certain short passages of text that are listed,
|
|
as Front-Cover Texts or Back-Cover Texts, in the notice that says that
|
|
the Document is released under this License.
|
|
|
|
A "Transparent" copy of the Document means a machine-readable copy,
|
|
represented in a format whose specification is available to the
|
|
general public, whose contents can be viewed and edited directly and
|
|
straightforwardly with generic text editors or (for images composed of
|
|
pixels) generic paint programs or (for drawings) some widely available
|
|
drawing editor, and that is suitable for input to text formatters or
|
|
for automatic translation to a variety of formats suitable for input
|
|
to text formatters. A copy made in an otherwise Transparent file
|
|
format whose markup has been designed to thwart or discourage
|
|
subsequent modification by readers is not Transparent. A copy that is
|
|
not "Transparent" is called "Opaque".
|
|
|
|
Examples of suitable formats for Transparent copies include plain
|
|
ASCII without markup, Texinfo input format, LaTeX input format, SGML
|
|
or XML using a publicly available DTD, and standard-conforming simple
|
|
HTML designed for human modification. Opaque formats include
|
|
PostScript, PDF, proprietary formats that can be read and edited only
|
|
by proprietary word processors, SGML or XML for which the DTD and/or
|
|
processing tools are not generally available, and the
|
|
machine-generated HTML produced by some word processors for output
|
|
purposes only.
|
|
|
|
The "Title Page" means, for a printed book, the title page itself,
|
|
plus such following pages as are needed to hold, legibly, the material
|
|
this License requires to appear in the title page. For works in
|
|
formats which do not have any title page as such, "Title Page" means
|
|
the text near the most prominent appearance of the work's title,
|
|
preceding the beginning of the body of the text.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. VERBATIM COPYING
|
|
|
|
You may copy and distribute the Document in any medium, either
|
|
commercially or noncommercially, provided that this License, the
|
|
copyright notices, and the license notice saying this License applies
|
|
to the Document are reproduced in all copies, and that you add no other
|
|
conditions whatsoever to those of this License. You may not use
|
|
technical measures to obstruct or control the reading or further
|
|
copying of the copies you make or distribute. However, you may accept
|
|
compensation in exchange for copies. If you distribute a large enough
|
|
number of copies you must also follow the conditions in section 3.
|
|
|
|
You may also lend copies, under the same conditions stated above, and
|
|
you may publicly display copies.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. COPYING IN QUANTITY
|
|
|
|
If you publish printed copies of the Document numbering more than 100,
|
|
and the Document's license notice requires Cover Texts, you must enclose
|
|
the copies in covers that carry, clearly and legibly, all these Cover
|
|
Texts: Front-Cover Texts on the front cover, and Back-Cover Texts on
|
|
the back cover. Both covers must also clearly and legibly identify
|
|
you as the publisher of these copies. The front cover must present
|
|
the full title with all words of the title equally prominent and
|
|
visible. You may add other material on the covers in addition.
|
|
Copying with changes limited to the covers, as long as they preserve
|
|
the title of the Document and satisfy these conditions, can be treated
|
|
as verbatim copying in other respects.
|
|
|
|
If the required texts for either cover are too voluminous to fit
|
|
legibly, you should put the first ones listed (as many as fit
|
|
reasonably) on the actual cover, and continue the rest onto adjacent
|
|
pages.
|
|
|
|
If you publish or distribute Opaque copies of the Document numbering
|
|
more than 100, you must either include a machine-readable Transparent
|
|
copy along with each Opaque copy, or state in or with each Opaque copy
|
|
a publicly-accessible computer-network location containing a complete
|
|
Transparent copy of the Document, free of added material, which the
|
|
general network-using public has access to download anonymously at no
|
|
charge using public-standard network protocols. If you use the latter
|
|
option, you must take reasonably prudent steps, when you begin
|
|
distribution of Opaque copies in quantity, to ensure that this
|
|
Transparent copy will remain thus accessible at the stated location
|
|
until at least one year after the last time you distribute an Opaque
|
|
copy (directly or through your agents or retailers) of that edition to
|
|
the public.
|
|
|
|
It is requested, but not required, that you contact the authors of the
|
|
Document well before redistributing any large number of copies, to give
|
|
them a chance to provide you with an updated version of the Document.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. MODIFICATIONS
|
|
|
|
You may copy and distribute a Modified Version of the Document under
|
|
the conditions of sections 2 and 3 above, provided that you release
|
|
the Modified Version under precisely this License, with the Modified
|
|
Version filling the role of the Document, thus licensing distribution
|
|
and modification of the Modified Version to whoever possesses a copy
|
|
of it. In addition, you must do these things in the Modified Version:
|
|
|
|
A. Use in the Title Page (and on the covers, if any) a title distinct
|
|
from that of the Document, and from those of previous versions
|
|
(which should, if there were any, be listed in the History section
|
|
of the Document). You may use the same title as a previous version
|
|
if the original publisher of that version gives permission.
|
|
B. List on the Title Page, as authors, one or more persons or entities
|
|
responsible for authorship of the modifications in the Modified
|
|
Version, together with at least five of the principal authors of the
|
|
Document (all of its principal authors, if it has less than five).
|
|
C. State on the Title page the name of the publisher of the
|
|
Modified Version, as the publisher.
|
|
D. Preserve all the copyright notices of the Document.
|
|
E. Add an appropriate copyright notice for your modifications
|
|
adjacent to the other copyright notices.
|
|
F. Include, immediately after the copyright notices, a license notice
|
|
giving the public permission to use the Modified Version under the
|
|
terms of this License, in the form shown in the Addendum below.
|
|
G. Preserve in that license notice the full lists of Invariant Sections
|
|
and required Cover Texts given in the Document's license notice.
|
|
H. Include an unaltered copy of this License.
|
|
I. Preserve the section entitled "History", and its title, and add to
|
|
it an item stating at least the title, year, new authors, and
|
|
publisher of the Modified Version as given on the Title Page. If
|
|
there is no section entitled "History" in the Document, create one
|
|
stating the title, year, authors, and publisher of the Document as
|
|
given on its Title Page, then add an item describing the Modified
|
|
Version as stated in the previous sentence.
|
|
J. Preserve the network location, if any, given in the Document for
|
|
public access to a Transparent copy of the Document, and likewise
|
|
the network locations given in the Document for previous versions
|
|
it was based on. These may be placed in the "History" section.
|
|
You may omit a network location for a work that was published at
|
|
least four years before the Document itself, or if the original
|
|
publisher of the version it refers to gives permission.
|
|
K. In any section entitled "Acknowledgements" or "Dedications",
|
|
preserve the section's title, and preserve in the section all the
|
|
substance and tone of each of the contributor acknowledgements
|
|
and/or dedications given therein.
|
|
L. Preserve all the Invariant Sections of the Document,
|
|
unaltered in their text and in their titles. Section numbers
|
|
or the equivalent are not considered part of the section titles.
|
|
M. Delete any section entitled "Endorsements". Such a section
|
|
may not be included in the Modified Version.
|
|
N. Do not retitle any existing section as "Endorsements"
|
|
or to conflict in title with any Invariant Section.
|
|
|
|
If the Modified Version includes new front-matter sections or
|
|
appendices that qualify as Secondary Sections and contain no material
|
|
copied from the Document, you may at your option designate some or all
|
|
of these sections as invariant. To do this, add their titles to the
|
|
list of Invariant Sections in the Modified Version's license notice.
|
|
These titles must be distinct from any other section titles.
|
|
|
|
You may add a section entitled "Endorsements", provided it contains
|
|
nothing but endorsements of your Modified Version by various
|
|
parties--for example, statements of peer review or that the text has
|
|
been approved by an organization as the authoritative definition of a
|
|
standard.
|
|
|
|
You may add a passage of up to five words as a Front-Cover Text, and a
|
|
passage of up to 25 words as a Back-Cover Text, to the end of the list
|
|
of Cover Texts in the Modified Version. Only one passage of
|
|
Front-Cover Text and one of Back-Cover Text may be added by (or
|
|
through arrangements made by) any one entity. If the Document already
|
|
includes a cover text for the same cover, previously added by you or
|
|
by arrangement made by the same entity you are acting on behalf of,
|
|
you may not add another; but you may replace the old one, on explicit
|
|
permission from the previous publisher that added the old one.
|
|
|
|
The author(s) and publisher(s) of the Document do not by this License
|
|
give permission to use their names for publicity for or to assert or
|
|
imply endorsement of any Modified Version.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. COMBINING DOCUMENTS
|
|
|
|
You may combine the Document with other documents released under this
|
|
License, under the terms defined in section 4 above for modified
|
|
versions, provided that you include in the combination all of the
|
|
Invariant Sections of all of the original documents, unmodified, and
|
|
list them all as Invariant Sections of your combined work in its
|
|
license notice.
|
|
|
|
The combined work need only contain one copy of this License, and
|
|
multiple identical Invariant Sections may be replaced with a single
|
|
copy. If there are multiple Invariant Sections with the same name but
|
|
different contents, make the title of each such section unique by
|
|
adding at the end of it, in parentheses, the name of the original
|
|
author or publisher of that section if known, or else a unique number.
|
|
Make the same adjustment to the section titles in the list of
|
|
Invariant Sections in the license notice of the combined work.
|
|
|
|
In the combination, you must combine any sections entitled "History"
|
|
in the various original documents, forming one section entitled
|
|
"History"; likewise combine any sections entitled "Acknowledgements",
|
|
and any sections entitled "Dedications". You must delete all sections
|
|
entitled "Endorsements."
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. COLLECTIONS OF DOCUMENTS
|
|
|
|
You may make a collection consisting of the Document and other documents
|
|
released under this License, and replace the individual copies of this
|
|
License in the various documents with a single copy that is included in
|
|
the collection, provided that you follow the rules of this License for
|
|
verbatim copying of each of the documents in all other respects.
|
|
|
|
You may extract a single document from such a collection, and distribute
|
|
it individually under this License, provided you insert a copy of this
|
|
License into the extracted document, and follow this License in all
|
|
other respects regarding verbatim copying of that document.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. AGGREGATION WITH INDEPENDENT WORKS
|
|
|
|
A compilation of the Document or its derivatives with other separate
|
|
and independent documents or works, in or on a volume of a storage or
|
|
distribution medium, does not as a whole count as a Modified Version
|
|
of the Document, provided no compilation copyright is claimed for the
|
|
compilation. Such a compilation is called an "aggregate", and this
|
|
License does not apply to the other self-contained works thus compiled
|
|
with the Document, on account of their being thus compiled, if they
|
|
are not themselves derivative works of the Document.
|
|
|
|
If the Cover Text requirement of section 3 is applicable to these
|
|
copies of the Document, then if the Document is less than one quarter
|
|
of the entire aggregate, the Document's Cover Texts may be placed on
|
|
covers that surround only the Document within the aggregate.
|
|
Otherwise they must appear on covers around the whole aggregate.
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. TRANSLATION
|
|
|
|
Translation is considered a kind of modification, so you may
|
|
distribute translations of the Document under the terms of section 4.
|
|
Replacing Invariant Sections with translations requires special
|
|
permission from their copyright holders, but you may include
|
|
translations of some or all Invariant Sections in addition to the
|
|
original versions of these Invariant Sections. You may include a
|
|
translation of this License provided that you also include the
|
|
original English version of this License. In case of a disagreement
|
|
between the translation and the original English version of this
|
|
License, the original English version will prevail.
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. TERMINATION
|
|
|
|
You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Document except
|
|
as expressly provided for under this License. Any other attempt to
|
|
copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Document is void, and will
|
|
automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,
|
|
parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this
|
|
License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
|
|
parties remain in full compliance.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10. FUTURE REVISIONS OF THIS LICENSE
|
|
|
|
The Free Software Foundation may publish new, revised versions
|
|
of the GNU Free Documentation License from time to time. Such new
|
|
versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
|
|
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns. See
|
|
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/.
|
|
|
|
Each version of the License is given a distinguishing version number.
|
|
If the Document specifies that a particular numbered version of this
|
|
License "or any later version" applies to it, you have the option of
|
|
following the terms and conditions either of that specified version or
|
|
of any later version that has been published (not as a draft) by the
|
|
Free Software Foundation. If the Document does not specify a version
|
|
number of this License, you may choose any version ever published (not
|
|
as a draft) by the Free Software Foundation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
ADDENDUM: How to use this License for your documents
|
|
|
|
To use this License in a document you have written, include a copy of
|
|
the License in the document and put the following copyright and
|
|
license notices just after the title page:
|
|
|
|
@smallexample
|
|
Copyright (c) YEAR YOUR NAME.
|
|
Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document
|
|
under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.1
|
|
or any later version published by the Free Software Foundation;
|
|
with the Invariant Sections being LIST THEIR TITLES, with the
|
|
Front-Cover Texts being LIST, and with the Back-Cover Texts being LIST.
|
|
A copy of the license is included in the section entitled "GNU
|
|
Free Documentation License".
|
|
@end smallexample
|
|
|
|
If you have no Invariant Sections, write "with no Invariant Sections"
|
|
instead of saying which ones are invariant. If you have no
|
|
Front-Cover Texts, write "no Front-Cover Texts" instead of
|
|
"Front-Cover Texts being LIST"; likewise for Back-Cover Texts.
|
|
|
|
If your document contains nontrivial examples of program code, we
|
|
recommend releasing these examples in parallel under your choice of
|
|
free software license, such as the GNU General Public License,
|
|
to permit their use in free software.
