H A Dgen_ld_sects.py5976a0a5b9bf7aaebe65320eb5e1709f7bd1f04e Thu May 25 05:48:20 UTC 2017 Jens Wiklander <jens.wiklander@linaro.org> core: avoid incremental linking with -gc

The AArch64 linkers seems to have occasional problems with incremental
linking (-i) in combination with garbage collect of sections (-gc). The
way we're organizing the layout of the binary used for paging depends on
-gc to build the different dependency trees for unpaged and
initialization code.

The problem in the linker is tracked in
https://bugs.linaro.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3006 and
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21524

The problem typically manifests itself by:
aarch64-toolchain/gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.02-x86_64_aarch64-linux-gnu/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-ld: BFD (Linaro_Binutils-2017.02) 2.27.0.20161019 assertion fail /home/tcwg-buildslave/workspace/tcwg-make-release/label/docker-trusty-amd64-tcwg-build/target/aarch64-linux-gnu/snapshots/binutils-gdb.git~linaro_binutils-2_27-branch/bfd/elflink.c:8380
core/arch/arm/kernel/link.mk:90: recipe for target 'out/arm-plat-vexpress/core/init.o' failed
make: *** [out/arm-plat-vexpress/core/init.o] Error 1

With this patch we replace the incremental linking with a full link
using a special link script. With a full link we can't have undefined
symbols so some dummy symbols are provided by the link script when some
object files are skipped when reducing the dependency tree. To
completely get rid of those dummy symbols the script that gathers the
sections is replaced by a python script that skips listed sections (if
provided).

In terms of features in the resulting binary, nothing is changed in this
commit.
