The `mips-sgi-irix6' target only supports IRIX linker emulations, but
most JALR relaxation tests request the relevant traditional emulation
instead, causing a link failure:
./ld-new: unrecognised emulation mode: elf32btsmipn32
Supported emulations: elf32bmipn32 elf32bsmip elf64bmip
This is clearly an omission from the conversion to use the per-ABI
framework made with commit 78da84f994 ("MIPS/LD/testsuite: Correct
mips-elf.exp test ABI/emul/endian arrangement"). These tests are also
endianness agnostic, which was missed in the conversion as well.
Remove the unnecessary explicit ABI and endianness options then and rely
on the per-ABI framework to get things right, removing this regression:
mips-sgi-irix6 -FAIL: MIPS relax-jalr-shared n32
ld/
* testsuite/ld-mips-elf/relax-jalr-n32-shared.d: Remove flags
related to ABI and endianness selection from the `as' and `ld'
tags.
* testsuite/ld-mips-elf/relax-jalr-n64.d: Likewise.
* testsuite/ld-mips-elf/relax-jalr-n64-shared.d: Likewise.
* testsuite/ld-mips-elf/mips-elf.exp: Remove `as' and `ld' tag
additions from the invocation of JALR relaxation tests.
Remove separate original NewABI JALR relocation handling, introduced
with commit d06471104a ("relax jalr $t9 [R_MIPS_JALR symbol] to bal
symbol"), <https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2003-03/msg00394.html>,
and only used by LD with the `--relax' option specified, and rely solely
on `mips_elf_perform_relocation' code, which has been introduced with
commit 1367d393bb ("On the RM9000 convert jal to bal if in range"),
<https://www.sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2004-12/msg00088.html> and since
made more complete, across all the three ABIs.
Also remove the `--relax' option, now irrelevant, from the tests added
with the former commit.
