I'm seeing a bunch of failures on AArch64 after updating this morning. These are NOT failing on x86-64. These all seem to be caused by segfaults (example backtrace below). Is anyone else seeing this? -David LLVM :: DebugInfo/symbolize-no-debug-str.test LLVM :: tools/gold/X86/comdat.ll LLVM :: tools/gold/X86/visibility.ll LLVM ::

Hi, I'm going to implement Mach-O support in llvm-objcopy. Before working on this, I'd like to hear your thoughts how llvm-objcopy should handle Mach-O section names. By convention, Mach-O section names are denoted by "<segment name>,<section name>". However, GNU objcopy renames them in the following rule [1]: - If the section name is well-known, rename it to an

Hi LLVM developers, As PR35281 mentioned: $ llvm-objcopy -O binary llvm-cortex-m7.elf llvm-cortex-m7.bin llvm-objcopy: 'llvm-cortex-m7.elf': The file was not recognized as a valid object file. if (ELFObjectFile<ELF64LE> *o = dyn_cast<ELFObjectFile<ELF64LE>>(&Binary)) https://github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm/blob/master/tools/llvm-objcopy/llvm-objcopy.cpp#L200

Hi all, The following tests fail because my username (csabaraduly) contains "bar" : ******************** FAIL: LLVM :: tools/llvm-objcopy/ELF/regex.test (47099 of 50832) ******************** TEST 'LLVM :: tools/llvm-objcopy/ELF/regex.test' FAILED ******************** Script: -- : 'RUN: at line 1'; /home/csabaraduly/wk/LLVM-git/__build_release_99/bin/yaml2obj

For ignore-undefined-symbols.s, the simplest fix ought to be to have the llvm-mc RUN line take the source from <stdin>: # RUN: llvm-mc –filetype=obj –triple=x86_64-pc-linux %s –o %t.o –g becomes # RUN: llvm-mc –filetype=obj –triple=x86_64-pc-linux < %s –o %t.o –g But in this case, llvm-symbolizer still prints the file as $CWD/<stdin> which seems like its own separate bug. --paulr

Hey everyone, Sorry to jump in on this so late. My two cents is that it should remain GNU objoppy compatible most likely. It was always vaguely a desire to have command line compatibility but it has turned out over time that this is actually a crucial feature and should be one of the top priorities. You can't just go into a giant build system and swap out all the uses of GNU objcopy with

LLVM already implements its own version of almost all of binutils. The exceptions to this rule are objcopy and strip. This is a proposal to implement an llvm version of objcopy/strip to complete llvm’s binutils. Several projects only use gnu binutils because of objcopy/strip. LLVM itself uses objcopy in fact. Chromium and Fuchsia currently use objcopy as well. If you want to distribute your build

Hi, It's not clear to me what you mean by CLI "subcommands". Would you mind giving a brief example? Up to now, we've been trying to keep llvm-objcopy as close as possible to GNU objcopy, to make transitioning between them easier (I'm thinking in particular things like DWO generation). There are a small number of edge cases/unusual behaviours that we have chosen not to

Hey everyone! Objcopy is a powerful tool that allows one to modify object files in various manners, for example, modify symbols / symbol tables or copy / remove particular parts of a binary. It also serves as a basis for the strip tool. Currently, llvm-objcopy only supports ELF files while binutils' objcopy can handle Mach-O files as well. Besides extending the existing tool to support Mach-O

Currently llvm-objcopy only supports ELF files, and most of it's command line flags are ELF / DWARF specific that don't make any sense on COFF files. So a useful set of options for COFF would be largely disjoint, with maybe 1-2 overlapping options. What would be the best way to add this in llvm-objcopy? I can think of 3 options: 1) Re-write the existing CLI of llvm-objcopy to use

Hey everyone! In October/November 2018 I started the implementation of llvm-objcopy for MachO with the long-term plan to build some popular binary-level tools on top of it. That effort stopped at the stage where some boilerplate code for reading/writing MachO files was reviewed & committed to LLVM/tools/llvm-objcopy. Later I started working on llvm-lipo (a drop-in replacing for the tool

Every case is different, but yes, as I said - I would like to take a closer look at the problem again, it might be the case that we don't need this complexity in this particular case, but want to double check. But yeah, in general I agree with you! On Thu, May 9, 2019 at 6:09 PM Jake Ehrlich <jakehehrlich at google.com> wrote: > I think that pretty much hits the nail on the head.

Hi Jake, many thanks, yea, I have very similar feelings / thoughts. After some thinking it seems to me that this discussion/problem which I have brought up is, in fact, more relevant to the tools which really need a robust mutable model of an object file (like objcopy, strip, install_name_tool, etc), but the particular case of "lipo" might be simpler, I need to double check that / will

Hi, I am still struggling with my optimized/speedup build of llvm-toolchain v3.8.1. Here: Enable LTO, PGO, optimized-TableGen, split-DWARF and build with GNU/gold and LLVMgold-plugin. The objcopy (binutils v2.22) here on Ubuntu/precise AMD64 does not support '--extract-dwo'. My build fails with... /usr/bin/objcopy: unrecognized option '--extract-dwo'. Now, I did a full build of

Hi Zach! I've been thinking a bit about this for a while now and I'm still of two opinions: On Wed, Mar 7, 2018 at 9:21 AM Zachary Turner via llvm-dev < llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org> wrote: > Currently llvm-objcopy only supports ELF files, and most of it's command > line flags are ELF / DWARF specific that don't make any sense on COFF > files.

That's something I want to do as well for several reasons. That's an orthogonal issue however.

I am looking to create a tool that can add Apple or DWARF5 accelerator tables to fully linked executables that contain DWARF. This will help us benchmark how much accelerator tables can improve the debugging experience as debuggers don't need to manually index all of the debug info during debugging. Looking at how accelerator tables are currently emitted, they seem to be built up as DWARF is
