   1 Thu Jul  4 09:53:16 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
   2
   3         * Everything: created some new files, core.c format.c, reloc.c,
   4         section.c and syms.c to split the functionality a bit better.
   5         Cleaned up the rest of the files a bit, and added some
   6         documentation.

   8
   9 Mon Jul  1 13:29:47 1991  David Wood (wood at david.ultra.nya.edu)
  10
  11         * opncls.c, ../include/sys/h-sun3.h ../include/sys/h-sun4.h: fcntl
  12         really takes 3 arguments, patched code and ammended prototypes.
  13
  14 Fri Jun 14 13:19:40 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
  15
  16         * ../include/bfd.h (struct bfd_target): Added new field
  17         "align_power_min" which contains the minimum alignment for a
  18         section. This is used in coff_new_section_hook. The field
  19         insertion necessitates an update of all backends..
  20
  21         * aoutf1.h jump table field inserted
  22
  23         * archive.c(snarf_ar_hdr)(bfd_slurp_coff_armap) can now parse dgux style extended
  24         filenames too.
  25
  26         * bout.c(b_out_squirt_out_relocs) fix to assertion tests. Jump
  27         table field inserted.
  28
  29         * coffcode.h(just about everything) Now patches up symbol tables
  30         using a different mechanism. The Intel major bug has been fixed,
  31         and the linker can self host on the Aviion and be debugged with
  32         gdb.
  33
  34         * ecoff.c: new include and jump table patch, i386coff.c: new
  35         include and jump table patch,  icoff.c: new include and jump table
  36         patch, ieee.c: can now read archives containing ieee modules.,
  37         libcoff.h: added (combined_entry_type), libieee.h: uped max
  38         sections to 20, m68kcoff.c: new include and jump table patch,
  39         m88kbcs.c: new include and jump table patch, oasys.c: various bugs
  40         fixed. opncls.c: added bfd_alloc_grow and bfd_alloc_finish.
  41         srec.c: jump table patch. trad-code.c fixed #IF typeo
  42
  43 Fri Jun  7 12:35:46 1991  Sean Fagan  (sef at cygint.cygnus.com)
  44
  45         * coffcode.h (coff_swap_aux_in): added else case to deal with
  46         filenames less than 9 characters.
  47
  48
  49 Thu Jun  6 18:27:38 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
  50
  51         * ../include/oasys.h oasys.c (oasys_archive_p): fixed so it works
  52
  53         * srec.c: now allows any number of sections to be created in a
  54         file. Outputs addresses of the right length.
  55
  56 Thu May 30 15:30:10 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
  57
  58         * bfd.c (bfd_check_format): Fixed problem where when a defaulted
  59         target didn't match, the format got set to the attempted match,
  60         breaking a future test.
  61
  62         *../include/i386coff.h : fixed typo in type field with size
  63
  64         * i386coff.c icoff.c m88k-bcs.c ecoff.c ../include/bfd.h : Added
  65         support in the jump table for the swapping routines exported to
  66         gdb. Now gdb works with the 386.
  67
  68 Tue May 28 17:21:43 1991  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
  69
  70         * Merge in changes from gdb-3.95 release.
  71         Makefile.in:  Allow hmake and tmake files to add OFILES.
  72         aoutf1.h:
  73         bfd.c:  support specific targets as well as searching.  When
  74         searching, take default target in preference to others.
  75         bfd.doc:  typos
  76         ieee.c, oasys.c:  Avoid using the "tdata" macros left of assignment.
  77         liba.out.h:  Don't hard-code file offsets; use N_ macros for them.
  78         libbfd.h:  Support specific targets as well as searching.
  79         opncls.c:  Support specific targets as well as searching.
  80         targets.c:  Search is short-circuited if default target matches.
  81         liboasys.c, libieee.c:  Undo bothner changes that make macros
  82         work to the left of assignment, but which depend on the
  83         representations of different pointer types being the same.
  84
  85 Fri May 24 18:56:52 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
  86
  87         * i386coff.c: created.
  88         * coffcode.h: added support for 386.
  89         * Makefile.in: added support for 386.
  90         * ../include/i386coff.h: created
  91
  92 Wed May 22 07:26:38 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
  93
  94         * coffcode.h: removed all put_x_<sizes>
  95         * libbfd.c: Changed #ifdef __GNUC__ to #ifdef HOST_64_BIT, Added
  96         DEFUNS
  97
  98
  99 Tue May 21 08:58:58 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 100         (bothner)
 101         * opncls.c: Changed obstack_chunk_alloc use xmalloc
 102
 103 Mon May 20 17:12:17 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 104
 105         * everything: Removed sysdep.h from bfd.h and put back into files
 106         from which it was split out. Now 64 bit version is built with a
 107         -DHOST_64_BIT="long long" on the compile line.
 108
 109
 110 Fri May 17 19:35:26 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 111
 112         Changed all the [get|put][name] routines to use  [get|put]_[size
 113         in bytes].
 114
 115         Put in support for 64 bit work. Now two versions of bfd may be
 116         generated, according to the state of TARGET_64_BIT, one which is
 117         32 bit only, and one which is 64/32 bits.
 118         Created new back end 'demo64' to test 64 bit functionality.
 119
 120         Renamed some files to work on DOS.
 121
 122         * archive.c: lint * bfd.c: prototypes and lint. * ecoff.c: added
 123         64bit transfer  * icoff.c: added 64bit transfer * ieee.c: name
 124         chage, 64 bit transfer. * liba.out.h: Split out common code from
 125         sunos and newsos into liba.out. Name changes and prototype mods. *
 126         libbfd.c: lint and prototypes, extra 64bit swaps. * libbfd.h:
 127         prototypes for new functions. * libcoff.h: lint * libieee.h: make
 128         work on DOS * liboasys.h: make work on DOS * m88k-bcs.c: Name
 129         change and 64bit stuff.* newsos3.c: common code removed, new jump
 130         table. * oasys.c: Name change * opncls.c: Portability fixes *
 131         srec.c: Name changes * sunos.c: Removed comon code. * targets.c:
 132         Added demo * aout32, aout64.c include  aoutx.h * bout.c: used to
 133         be called b.out.c * coffcode.h: used to be called coff-code.h, now
 134         64bit ized. * demo64.c: 64 bit a.out back end
 135
 136
 137
 138
 139
 140 Thu May 16 16:02:07 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 141         from bothner
 142         * libieee.h: Make ieee_data and ieee_ar_data macros usable
 143         on LHS of assignment, even when using old compilers.
 144         * liboasys.h: Ditto for oasys_data and oasys_ar_data.
 145         * m68kcoff.c: Add enum-to-int casts to accomodate old compilers.
 146         * newsos3.c: Fix definitions of SEGMENT_SIZE and TEXT_START_ADDR.
 147         * opncls.c: Define S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, S_IXOTH if undefined.
 148         * targets.c: Add declaration of newsos3_vec.
 149
 150
 151 Mon May 13 10:03:29 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 152
 153         * aout.c: fixxed some of the problems with filepos calculation.
 154         (swap_ext_reloc): fixed problem with creation of relocs.
 155         (aout_set_section_contents): fixed filepos problem
 156
 157         * coff-code.h: (swap_filehdr_in, swap_filehdr_out) add.
 158         (swap_filehdr) delete. Changed all the usage of bfd_h_put_x.
 159         (swap_aouthdr_in, swap_aouthdr_out) add. (swap_aouthdr) delete.
 160         (coff_real_object_p) cleaned up, added MIPS. (coff_object_p)
 161         cleaned up. (coff_write_object_contents) cleaned up.
 162
 163         * ecoff.c: Totally different. Now supports ecoff fully.
 164
 165         * icoff.c: fixed problems in relocation callout.
 166
 167         * libcoff.h: (struct icofdata) removed hdr structure from tdata.
 168
 169         * m68kcoff.c: updated target vector.
 170
 171         * sunos.c: (choose_reloc_size) added: (sunos4_callback) calls
 172         choose_reloc_size. (sunos4_write_object_contents) now calls
 173         choose_reloc_size so outputs relocs correctly, also calculates the
 174         size of the sections correctly.
 175
 176
 177
 178 Fri May 10 16:58:53 1991  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
 179
 180         Merge Per Bothner's changes to modularize BFD a.out a bit.
 181
 182         * libbfd.h, libbfd.c (bfd_generic_get_section_contents):  Add.
 183         * ieee.c:  Cast enums to int before comparing them, for brain-
 184         dead compilers.
 185         * coff-code.h:  Remove coff_get_section_contents, and use the
 186         generic one instead.
 187
 188         * aout.c:  Derive new module from sunos.c, containing generic
 189         support code for all kinds of a.out files.
 190
 191         * sunos.c: Remove all code that goes in aout.c.  Split out
 192         machine dependent followup in sunos4_object_p into
 193         sunos4_callback.  Use JUMP_TABLE(aout) for the transver vector,
 194         and redefine only the names we CHANGE, not all the names.  Drop
 195         the little-endian vector, and rename the vector as sunos4 rather
 196         than generic.
 197
 198         * b.out.c:  Use aout.c routines for most of the work.  Slight
 199         changes for the new regime.  Remove close_and_cleanup and
 200         get_section_contents in favor of generics.  New transfer vector
 201         regime.
 202
 203         * newsos.c:  New support for Sony NEWS, another a.out format.
 204
 205         * ecoff.c:  Remove close_and_cleanup.  New tvec regime.
 206         * icoff.c, m88k-bcs.c:  Add write_contents to tvec.
 207         * ieee.c, oasys.c:  Remove close_and_cleanup, add write_contents
 208         to tvec.
 209         * opncls.c (bfd_close):  Call format-dependent write_contents
 210         routine, if writing, before calling target-dependent
 211         close_and_cleanup routine (which is now always generic, I think).
 212         * srec.c:  Use bfd_alloc instead of malloc.  Remove
 213         close_and_cleanup and move code from it to
 214         srec_write_object_contents.  Add write_contents to tvec.
 215         * targets.c:  Remove a.out little vector, replace a.out big
 216         vector with SunOS vector.  FIXME:  Need Vax support again now.
 217
 218         * libbfd.h:  Add write_contents format-dependent-vector to the
 219         bfd_target vector.  Supply a generic close_and_cleanup routine.
 220         * liba.out.h:  Handle the new aout.c split.  Add prototypes for
 221         all routines defined in aout.c.  Rename "sunos" things to "aout"
 222         things.  Add a few fields where needed for various formats.
 223         * Makefile.in:  Add aout.c and newsos.c.
 224
 225         * archive.c, ieee.c, oasys.c:  Lint.
 226
 227 Fri May 10 12:34:48 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 228
 229         * ../include/bfd.h
 230         changed forward declaration struct stat; to reduce warnings. Changed
 231         comment on bfd_h_<x>_x.
 232
 233         * ../include/m68kcoff.h, ../include/intel-coff.h,
 234         ../include/m88k-bcs.h
 235         Now there are two incarnations of relocs, linenos and syments. One for
 236         internal digestion, and one full of char arrays for I/O. The original
 237         names have gone to detect errors.
 238
 239         * Makefile.in, m68kcoff.c, targets.c
 240         Test new structure code with a 68k coff implementaion
 241
 242         * coff-code.h, icoff.c, coffswap.c, libcoff.h
 243         Fixed all the places where there were problems with the size and
 244         alignments of structures on disk and structures in memory. #ifed out
 245         all the code in coffswap.c, since it should be done using the target
 246         swap routines now.
 247
 248 Thu May  9 11:00:45 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 249
 250         * ieee.c (do_one, ieee_slurp_section_data): now supports the load
 251         multiple reloc command.
 252
 253         * sunos.c (sunos4_set_section_contents): Made it so that sections
 254         are always padded to their alignment size.
 255
 256 Sat May  4 15:49:43 1991  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
 257
 258         * archive.c, bfd.c, coff-code.h, opncls.c, sunos.c, trad-core.c:
 259         Clean up types and such (saber C problems).
 260         * ecoff.c:  Clean up types and such.  Remove routines that are
 261         not used.  Fix up reading and swapping of shorts from files.
 262
 263    Notes on bfd-0.5.2-patch1a, from Per Bothner:
 264
 265         * a.out.vax.c: Remove two bogus "static" from prototypes.
 266
 267         * ecoff.c: Got rid of lots of non-working junk (that had
 268         been copied directly from coff-code.h).
 269         Updated to be consistent with updates to icoff.c and coff-code.h.
 270
 271         * libbfd.h: Added definitions for S_IXUSR, S_IXGRP, and S_IXOTH
 272         if they're missing (as they are in (BDS-4.3-based) NewsOS-3).
 273
 274         * sunos.c (n_txtoff): (Re-)Add support for sony. This is a kludge,
 275         but until the target_vector is automatically generated,
 276         it's as good as any. Note that the text offset is the only
 277         difference between NewsOS and SunOs (including magic numbers).
 278         (Most of the sunos_* routines should to renamed bsd_*
 279         and move to a bsd.c file. Then (and when the target_vector
 280         is automatically generated) it might make sense to create
 281         a separate Sony target.)
 282
 283         * sysdep.h: Don't declare fread and fwrite. Causes trouble
 284         on some systems, and doesn't help on others.
 285         Similarly, only define X_OK if not already defined.
 286
 287         * trad-core.c: Don't include sys/stat.h - at least
 288         on NewsOS 3, it has already been included.
 289
 290 Tue Mar  5 01:47:57 1991  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
 291
 292         * coff-code.h (bfd_coff_swap_sym, bfd_coff_swap_aux,
 293         bfd_coff_swap_lineno):  Export the routines that byte-swap COFF
 294         symbol tables if necessary when reading them in, so gdb can use
 295         them.  Add "bfd_coff_" to the names so they won't conflict with
 296         names in calling programs.  FIXME-soon:  if coff-code.h is
 297         included in two BFD modules, this will cause duplicate
 298         definitions; the routines should be exported to a separate,
 299         common, module (probably along with a mess of other ones).
 300
 301 Sat Mar  2 12:11:26 1991  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
 302
 303         Improve modtime support.
 304
 305         * bfd.h:  Add boolean mtime_set, and declare bfd_get_mtime.
 306         Remove #define for bfd_get_mtime.  Remove gratuitous comment.
 307         * bfd.c (bfd_get_mtime):  New fn, caches mtime, gets if not cached.
 308         BUG:  archive members still do not get correct mod times.
 309
 310         Improve floating point support for core files.
 311
 312         * sunos.c (struct core):  Change void *fpa_dummy to double fp_stuff.
 313         (sunos4_core_file_p):  Create a second registers section in the
 314         core file, called ".reg2", for the float registers.
 315
 316 Thu Feb 14 15:49:06 1991  Gumby Vinayak Wallace  (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
 317
 318         * many changes to improve archive handling; found a logic flaw in
 319           bfd_check_format which only just happened to work by cooncidence.
 320
 321 Thu Feb 14 07:53:16 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 322
 323         * bfd.c (bfd_perform_relocation): fixed to use output_offsets
 324         correctly.
 325
 326         * bfd.h: changed type of udata in asymbol to void *, like it
 327         should be. Added bfd_reloc_dangerous enum member.
 328
 329         * coff-code.h: Fixed it so that internally generated symbols get
 330         their values relocated correctly in all cases. Removed calls to
 331         xmalloc.
 332
 333         * icoff.c: Not understanding the destination symbol of a reloc is
 334         not a failure any more, just 'dangerous'. This allows linking of
 335         b.out and coff images.
 336
 337         * sunos.c: Cleaned up the way that ZMAGIC section sizes are
 338         calculated.
 339
 340
 341 Tue Feb 12 13:25:46 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 342
 343         * sunos.c (translate_to_native_sym_flags): fixed
 344         sym_pointer->n_value so that symbols on the way out get their
 345         section relative values calculated correctly.
 346
 347         * coff-code.h (mangle_symbols): fixed problem where tags were not
 348         being relocated for structs, enums, unions. Also various lints.
 349
 350 Mon Feb 11 19:52:26 1991  Gumby Vinayak Wallace  (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
 351
 352         * archive.c (get_elt_at_filepos): system_call_error returned
 353           incorrectly.
 354
 355 Sun Feb 10 23:18:40 1991  Gumby Vinayak Wallace  (gumby at cygint.cygnus.com)
 356
 357         * Resolve the use of no_error and system_call_error.
 358           The bfd library itself now will never set bfd_error to
 359           no_error.
 360
 361           The code still needs to be combed to make sure all the error
 362           codes are correct.  I suspect they are not always set correctly.
 363
 364         * The names of all the messages have _ prepended because the sun
 365           bundled compiler can't distinguish from a macro which takes an
 366           argument and the same identifier in a non-macro context.
 367
 368         * The reason for the above being that entry points which used to
 369           be trampoline functions are now just macros which expand to a
 370           direct call through the bfd's xfer vector.
 371
 372         * (../include/intel-coff.h) F_AR32WR: fix this constant.  Why
 373           must gas have its own version of everything (the gas version
 374           had the correct value)
 375
 376 Tue Feb  5 11:46:53 1991  Steve Chamberlain  (steve at cygint.cygnus.com)
 377
 378         * b.out.c: Added patches supplied by chrisb@mipon2.intel.com to
 379         properly support i960 architecture and output correct reloc stuff.
 380
 381         * bfd.h: added prototype for bfd_printable_arch_mach, added
 382         BFD_FAIL
 383
 384         * coff-code.h: Applied patches from chrisb to support i960
 385         architecture, zero relocs and swap them correcly and conditionally
 386         compiled the timestamp.
 387
 388         * sunos.c: Made the default section alignment 2^3 so that doubles
 389         are done properly. Fixed the same reloc bug that was in b.out.c
 390
 391         * sysdep.h: Now compiles on a Posix box
 392
 393 Wed Jan 30 21:36:26 1991  John Gilmore  (gnu at cygint.cygnus.com)
 394
 395         * icoff.c:  Fix comment on big-endian version.
 396         * coff-code.h:  Make HAS_RELOC really work (it's backwards from
 397         F_RELFLG).  Set F_AR32WR in output files if little endian
 398         architecture.
 399
 400 Tue Jan 29 20:56:10 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com

 408         * coff-code.h added a lint cast
 409

 413 Mon Jan 28 19:15:29 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
 414
 415         * archive.c removed loads of includes, and fixed bug where string
 416         table didn't have a null at the end.
 417
 418         * bfd.c fixed includes, added symbols argument to
 419         canonicalize_reloc entry point.

 422
 423         * targets.c added both sorts of intel coff.
 424
 425         * b.out.c fixed included, changed was the canonical

 438         reloc calls, changed bfd->iostream to a void *
 439         to including files don't need stdio.h.
 440
 441         * libcoff.h added conversion table to tie relocs to
 442         canonical symbols
 443
 444         * sysdep.h created
 445
 446         * coff-code.h fixed includes. Added code to support

 448         processing of symbols. Changed reloc stuff to new
 449         order
 450
 451         * libbfd.h fixed includes
 452
 453
 454 Mon Jan 21 11:53:51 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
 455
 456         * bfd.h changed name of alignment entry in sec_struct to
 457         alignment_power, because of conflicting uses within bfd.
 458         Now it should be obvious that it's a 2**n alignment
 459         specifier. Removed start_pad, end_alignment, block, minsize,
 460         output_file_alignment, subsection_alignment and original_vma fields.
 461         Added align_power() macro. Fixed bfd_section_alignment
 462         acessor macros. Added bfd_symbol_same_target macro.
 463

 466         relative symbols properly.
 467
 468         * sunos.c (sunos4_object_p) fixed to use new alignment_power.
 469         Fixed (translate_from_native_sym_flags) to correctly make
 470         symbols section relative.
 471
 472         * bfd.c (bfd_errmsg) fixed various enum cast problems.
 473         (bfd_make_section) took out initialization of obsolete members.
 474         (bfd_print_symbol_vandf) added
 475
 476         * opncls.c (bfd_create) created.
 477

 479         to obsolete members. (make_a_section_from_file) added
 480         conversion between alignment types. (coff_symbol_from)
 481         added. (coff_count_linenumbers) only counts linenumbers
 482         if symbol is of coff-type. (coff_mangle_symbols) only
 483         heavily mangles symbols if symbol is coff-type.
 484         (coff_write_symbols) various lints. (coff_write_object_contents)

 494         correctly.
 495
 496         * bfd.c lots of lint, support for new bfd entry point
 497         bfd_print_symbol.
 498
 499         * bfd.h changed definition of asymbol to contain pointer to
 500         owning bfd, removed target dependencies.
 501
 502         * cache.c took out print statements, put in BFD_ASSERT calls.
 503
 504         * coff-code.h various lints, corrected linenumber output
 505         functionality. Added support for new style asymbols and
 506         bfd_print_symbol. Fixed so that asymbol and
 507         reloc records are handled correctly. Added timestamp.

 521
 522 Wed Jan 16 21:38:09 PST 1991 steve@cygnus.com
 523
 524         * b.out.c removed prototype of sunos4_ennativate_symtab, lots of
 525         pointer lint. Added support for callj relocation. Fixed bug where
 526         the last 32 bytes of the text section were overwritten by data. Fixed bug
 527         where archives of b.out didn't work due bfd_slurp_extended_name_table
 528         returning false.
 529
 530         * sunos.c added support for n_other field. Braced the howto table so
 531         that it won't be affected by any lengthing of the howto struct typedef.

 540 Wed Jan 16 01:55:53 1991  John Gilmore  (gnu at rtl)
 541
 542         * ChangeLog:  Started ChangeLog for BFD.
 543         * ToDo:  Create file for suggestions.
 544
 545         * Makefile:  Support easy loading into Saber C.
 546         Add dependencies for icoff.o and bcs88kcoff.o.
 547         Rename coff.c to coff-code.h.  Change callers.
 548
 549         * bfd.c (bfd_check_format):  Allow the check_format routines
 550         to return the desired target vector, rather than just a Boolean.
 551         bfd.h (bfd_check_format):  Change function pointer return type.
 552         archive.c (bfd_generic_archive_p):  change callee.
 553         b.out.c (b_out_little_object_p, b_out_big_object_p,
 554         b_out_real_object_p):  change callee.
 555         libbfd.c (_bfd_dummy_target):  Dummy routine replacing bfd_false
 556         in check_format transfer vectors that need a filler.
 557         libbfd.h (bfd_generic_archive_p, _bfd_dummy_target):  Fix decls.
 558         bcs88kcoff.c:  change callee.
 559         coff-code.h (coff_real_object_p, coff_big_object_p):  change callee.
 560         icoff.c:  change callee.
 561         sunos.c (sunos4_object_p, sunos4_core_file_p):  change callee.
 562
 563         * libbfd.c (zalloc):  It should actually zero the storage!
 564         This was commented out for some reason.
 565
 566         * libbfd.h:  Add malloc, xmalloc, memcpy, and fatal decls.
 567         This is so callers can avoid <stdlib.h> which doesn't exist
 568         on older systems.
 569
 570         * bfd.c (map_over_sections):  Add debugging code, since I
 571         noticed the section count for sunos core files was bad, but only
 572         GDB had detected the problem.
 573         (bfd_set_section_lineno_size, bfd_set_section_linenos,
 574         bfd_get_section_linenos):  Remove obsolete functions.
 575         (bfd_apply_relocations):  Use longs, not ints, for the math.
 576
 577         * bfd.h:  Declare enum boolean and struct bfd_target as well
 578         as typedefs for them.  Remove obsolete
 579         bfd_get_section_lineno_size.
 580
 581         * cache.c:  Make the "fdopen" support work.  Keep better track
 582         of how many files are open.  Centralize the opening of files
 583         and be sure bfd_open[rw] actually try to open the file.  Evade
 584         linked list initialization problems.
 585
 586         * b.out.c, coff-code.h, opncls.c, sunos.c:  lint.
 587
 588         * coff-code.h (coff_slurp_symbol_table):  Null-terminate symtab names.
 589
 590         * cplus-dem.c:  Delete file, since it is not part of BFD.
 591
 592         * opncls.c (bfd_openr):  Eliminate misplaced #if 0 code.
 593         (bfd_openr, bfd_openw):  Actually open the file, give error now.
 594
 595         * sunos.c (sunos4_core_file_p):  Set section count.
 596         (sunos4_set_section_linenos, stab_names, fprint_name):  Eliminiate
 597         obsolete definitions.
 598         (_write_symbol_table):  Initialize <idx> counter.
 599         (foop):  Eliminate debugging code.
