Max Filippov b2b326d246 xtensa: optimize check_section_ebb_pcrels_fit
The original check_section_ebb_pcrels_fit algorithm checks that text
actions proposed for current EBB are OK for every relocation in a
section. There's no need to check every relocation, because text actions
for EBB can only change size of that EBB, thus only affecting
relocations that in any way cross that EBB. In addition EBBs are
iterated in ascending order of their VMA, making it easier to track
relevant relocations.

Introduce a structure that can track relocations that cross the range of
VMAs of EBB and use it to only check relocations relevant to current EBB
in check_section_ebb_pcrels_fit.
It takes O(N log N) operations to build it and O(N) operations to move
current EBB VMA window through its entire range, where N is the number
of relocations in a section. The resulting complexity of
compute_text_actions is thus reduced from O(N^2) to O(N log N + N * M),
where M is the average number of relocations crossing each EBB.

		   README for GNU development tools

This directory contains various GNU compilers, assemblers, linkers, 
debuggers, etc., plus their support routines, definitions, and documentation.

If you are receiving this as part of a GDB release, see the file gdb/README.
If with a binutils release, see binutils/README;  if with a libg++ release,
see libg++/README, etc.  That'll give you info about this
package -- supported targets, how to use it, how to report bugs, etc.

It is now possible to automatically configure and build a variety of
tools with one command.  To build all of the tools contained herein,
run the ``configure'' script here, e.g.:

	./configure 
	make

To install them (by default in /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib, etc),
then do:
	make install

(If the configure script can't determine your type of computer, give it
the name as an argument, for instance ``./configure sun4''.  You can
use the script ``config.sub'' to test whether a name is recognized; if
it is, config.sub translates it to a triplet specifying CPU, vendor,
and OS.)

If you have more than one compiler on your system, it is often best to
explicitly set CC in the environment before running configure, and to
also set CC when running make.  For example (assuming sh/bash/ksh):

	CC=gcc ./configure
	make

A similar example using csh:

	setenv CC gcc
	./configure
	make

Much of the code and documentation enclosed is copyright by
the Free Software Foundation, Inc.  See the file COPYING or
COPYING.LIB in the various directories, for a description of the
GNU General Public License terms under which you can copy the files.

REPORTING BUGS: Again, see gdb/README, binutils/README, etc., for info
on where and how to report problems.
