Remove an inconsistency in linker error message processing causing that
it depends on the ability to infer the name of the originating source
file whether or not the name of the offending function is repeated by
clever formatters for each issue reported within the function.
Taking the `ld/testsuite/ld-powerpc/tocopt7.s' test case source as an
example and the `powerpc-linux' target we have:
$ as -gdwarf2 -o tocopt.o -a64 tocopt.s
$ ld -o tocopt -melf64ppc tocopt.o
tocopt.o: In function `_start':
tocopt.s:35:(.text+0x14): toc optimization is not supported for 0x3fa00000 instruction.
tocopt.s:49:(.text+0x34): toc optimization is not supported for 0x3fa00000 instruction.
$
vs:
$ as -o tocopt.o -a64 tocopt.s
$ ld -o tocopt -melf64ppc tocopt.o
tocopt.o: In function `_start':
(.text+0x14): toc optimization is not supported for 0x3fa00000 instruction.
tocopt.o: In function `_start':
(.text+0x34): toc optimization is not supported for 0x3fa00000 instruction.
$
Similarly with the `mips-linux' target and this source:
$ cat jal-global-multi-overflow.s
.text
.set noreorder
.space 0x2000
.align 4
.globl foo
.ent foo
foo:
jal bar
nor $0, $0
jal bar
nor $0, $0
.end foo
.space 0x1ff0
.align 4
.globl bar
.ent bar
bar:
jal foo
nor $0, $0
jal foo
nor $0, $0
.end bar
$ as -o jal-global-multi-overflow.o jal-global-multi-overflow.s
$ ld -Ttext 0x1fffd000 -e foo -o jal-global-multi-overflow jal-global-multi-overflow.o
jal-global-multi-overflow.o: In function `foo':
(.text+0x2000): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `bar'
jal-global-multi-overflow.o: In function `foo':
(.text+0x2008): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `bar'
jal-global-multi-overflow.o: In function `bar':
(.text+0x4000): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `foo'
jal-global-multi-overflow.o: In function `bar':
(.text+0x4008): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `foo'
$
Not only this is inconsistent, but it causes output clutter as well with
redundant information.
The cause for this is a check in `vfinfo' the intent of which is to
print the function heading whenever (among others) the name of the
source file has changed, which however does not take into account a
situation where the name couldn't have been established both now and
previously.
Adjust the check then for this situation, yielding:
$ as -o tocopt.o -a64 tocopt.s
$ ld -o tocopt -melf64ppc tocopt.o
tocopt.o: In function `_start':
(.text+0x14): toc optimization is not supported for 0x3fa00000 instruction.
(.text+0x34): toc optimization is not supported for 0x3fa00000 instruction.
$
and:
$ as -o jal-global-multi-overflow.o jal-global-multi-overflow.s
$ ld -Ttext 0x1fffd000 -e foo -o jal-global-multi-overflow jal-global-multi-overflow.o
jal-global-multi-overflow.o: In function `foo':
(.text+0x2000): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `bar'
(.text+0x2008): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `bar'
jal-global-multi-overflow.o: In function `bar':
(.text+0x4000): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `foo'
(.text+0x4008): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_26 against `foo'
$
respectively instead. Adjust the test suite accordingly.

Complement commit 9d862524f6 ("MIPS: Verify the ISA mode and alignment
of branch and jump targets") and add GAS and LD options to control the
checks for invalid branches between ISA modes introduced there, to help
with some handwritten code lacking `.insn' annotation for labels used as
branch targets and code produced by older versions of GCC which suffers
from the issue with branches to code that has been optimized away,
addressed with GCC commit 242424 ("MIPS/GCC: Mark trailing labels with
`.insn'"), <https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2016-11/msg01061.html>.
