Compressed debug sections can have uncompressed sizes that exceed the
original file size, so we can't use bfd_get_file_size. objdump also
used bfd_get_file_size to limit reloc section size, but I believe the
underlying bug causing the PR22508 out of bounds buffer access was
that we had an integer overflow when calculating the reloc buffer
size. I've fixed that instead in most of the backends, som and
vms-alpha being the exceptions. SOM and vmd-alpha have rather more
serious bugs in their slurp_relocs routines that would need fixing
first if we want to fuss about making them safe against fuzzed object
files.

Commit 2bf2bf23da exposed a bug on targets that create common sections
other than the standard ELF SHN_COMMON. If these are output by ld -r,
then their type becomes SHT_PROGBITS unless the target handles them
specially (eg. by elf_backend_special_sections), and if they are
merged into .bss/.sbss by ld -r then that section becomes SHT_PROGBITS.
Worse, if they are output by ld -r, then their size is increased by
bfd_generic_define_common_symbol during final link, which leads to
bogus file contents being copied to output.
For mips, it seems to me that the .scommon section should not be
output for ld -r, but I haven't made that change in this patch.

Linkers group input note sections with the same name into one output
note section with the same name. One output note section is placed in
one PT_NOTE segment. New linkers merge all input .note.gnu.property
sections into one output .note.gnu.property section with a single
NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 note in a single PT_NOTE segment. Since older
linkers treat input .note.gnu.property section as a generic note section
and just concatenate all input .note.gnu.property sections into one
output .note.gnu.property section without merging them, we may
see one or more NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 notes in PT_NOTE segment, which
are invalid.
GNU_PROPERTY_X86_UINT32_VALID was defined to address this issue such
that linker sets the bit for non-relocatable outputs. But it isn't
sufficient:
1. It doesn't cover generic properties.
2. When -mx86-used-note=yes is passed to x86 assembler, the
GNU_PROPERTY_X86_UINT32_VALID bit is set in GNU_PROPERTY_X86_ISA_1_USED
property in object file and older linkers generate invalid
NT_GNU_PROPERTY_TYPE_0 notes with the GNU_PROPERTY_X86_UINT32_VALID bit
set.
I am proposing the following changes:
1. Add PT_GNU_PROPERTY segment type:
# define PT_GNU_PROPERTY (PT_LOOS + 0x474e553)
which covers .note.gnu.property section.
2. Remove GNU_PROPERTY_X86_UINT32_VALID.

This patch, along with previous patches in the series, supports
putting the ELF file header and program headers in a PT_LOAD without
sections.
Logic governing whether headers a loaded has changed a little: The
primary reason to include headers is now the presence of
SIZEOF_HEADERS in a linker script. However, to support scripts that
may have reserved space for headers by hand, we continue to add
headers whenever the first section address is past the end of headers
modulo page size.

p_vaddr is currently set from the first section vma if a segment has
sections, and to zero if a segment has no sections. This means we
lose p_vaddr when objcopy'ing executables if a segment without
sections has a non-zero p_vaddr.
This patch saves p_vaddr to p_vaddr_offset, and to make the use of
p_vaddr_offset consistent, inverts the sign. (It's now added to
section vma to get segment vaddr, and added to zero when there are no
sections.)

VMA of the first section in the segment containing the ELF file header
(and possibly section headers too) can't be used to reliably find the
size of the headers plus padding. What's really needed is sh_offset
of the first section assuming it has contents (vma does have a
relationship to sh_offset, but is only guaranteed in demand paged
executables).
If the first section is SHT_NOBITS and it hasn't been converted to
have file contents by the existence of a following SHT_PROGBITS
section in the same segment, the sh_offset value also isn't reliable.

Sections may well belong in multiple segments. The testcase in the PR
saw an allocated section being assigned to an ABIFLAGS segment, then
not being assigned to a LOAD segment because it had already been
handled. To fix that particular problem this patch sets and tests
segment_mark only for LOAD segments. I kept the segment_mark test for
LOAD segments because I think there may otherwise be a problem with
zero size sections.
A few other problems showed up with the testcase. Some targets align
.dynamic, resulting in the test failing with "section .dynamic lma
0x800000c0 adjusted to 0x800000cc" and similar messages. I've tried
to handle that with some more hacks to the segment lma, which do the
right thing for the testcase, but may well fail in other situations.
I've also removed the tests of segment lma (p_paddr) and code involved
in deciding that an adjusted segment no longer covers the file or
program headers. Those test can't be correct in the face of objcopy
--change-section-lma. It may be necessary to reinstate the tests but
do them modulo page size, but we'll see how this goes.

error output. This patch doesn't try to fix the testuite, but does
prevent the segfault.
* elf.c (assign_file_positions_except_relocs): Don't segfault
when actual number of phdrs is less than allocated. Delete
outdated comment. Formatting.
Commit 325ba6fb34 excluded degenerate zero length PT_LOAD segments,
but that only fixed part of the problem, which was that the load
segment limits were not calculated properly.

* elf.c (IS_TBSS): Define.
(_bfd_elf_map_sections_to_segments): Use IS_TBSS.
(assign_file_positions_for_non_load_sections): Revert last change.
Properly calculate load segment limits to compare against relro limits.
Fixes a failure triggered by -z separate-code. p_memsz is tested
rather than p_filesz for objcopy --only-keep-debug where p_filesz is
set to zero.

* elf.c (assign_file_positions_for_non_load_sections): Ignore
degenerate zero size PT_LOAD segments when finding one overlapping
the PT_GNU_RELRO segment.
This fixes the case where all of a group is removed with ld -r, the
situation in the PR, and failures where part of a group is removed
that contain relocs.

lld lays out the relro segment differently to GNU ld, not bothering to
include the first few bytes of .got.plt and padding out to a page at
the end of the segment. This patch teaches binutils to recognize the
different (and somewhat inferior) layout as valid.

Fix the issue of any failure from `->elf_backend_section_processing'
not being propagated by `_bfd_elf_write_object_contents'. The MIPS
`_bfd_mips_elf_section_processing' handler can actually potentially
fail, however the caller currently ignores that.

* elf.c (_bfd_elf_write_object_contents): Propagate a failure
status from `->elf_backend_section_processing'.
We can't map different disk pages into the same memory page; The last
page mapped will simply overwrite any previous pages. The
executable/non-executable new_segment test ignored this fact, leading
to a ld.so segfault on hppa when .dynamic is overwritten with zeros.
This patch moves existing tests for demand paging with lma on the same
memory page, to a new test performed before any case where we want a
new segment due to protection or loadable conflicts.

condition in writable/non-writable test. Delete outdated
comment. Formatting.
