* elfxx-mips.c (mips_got_info): Remove bfd2got.
(mips_elf_bfd2got_hash): Delete.
(mips_elf_got_per_bfd_arg): Remove bfd2got.
(mips_elf_replace_bfd_got, mips_elf_count_got_entries): New functions.
(mips_elf_global_got_index, mips_elf_create_local_got_entry): Use
g->next to test for the multigot case. Use mips_elf_bfd_got rather
than mips_elf_got_for_ibfd.
(mips_elf_bfd2got_entry_hash, mips_elf_bfd2got_entry_eq)
(mips_elf_got_for_ibfd, mips_elf_get_got_for_bfd): Delete.
(mips_elf_make_got_per_bfd): Replace with...
(mips_elf_add_got_entry): ...this new function.
(mips_elf_make_got_pages_per_bfd): Replace with...
(mips_elf_add_got_page_entry): ...this new function.
(mips_elf_merge_got_with): Replace bfd2got argument with separate
bfd and GOT arguments. Use mips_elf_add_got_entry and
mips_elf_add_got_page_entry instead of mips_elf_make_got_per_bfd
and mips_elf_make_got_pages_per_bfd. Use mips_elf_replace_bfd_got
to set the BFD's GOT and free the old table.
(mips_elf_merge_got): Replace bfd2got argument with separate
bfd and GOT arguments. Apply mips_elf_resolve_final_got_entries.
Use mips_elf_count_got_entries to count the number of entries in
each GOT. Update the calls to mips_elf_merge_got_with.
(mips_elf_adjust_gp): Use g->next to test for the multigot case.
Use mips_elf_bfd_got rather than mips_elf_got_for_ibfd.
(mips_elf_multi_got): Don't create the bfd2got hash table.
Replace hash table traversal with a walk over the input bfds,
updating the call to mips_elf_merge_got. Use mips_elf_replace_bfd_got
to set the output bfd's GOT.
(mips_elf_lay_out_got): Rename "sub" to "ibfd". Record that all
bfds use the master GOT in the single-GOT case.
(_bfd_mips_elf_finish_dynamic_sections): Use mips_elf_bfd_got
rather than mips_elf_got_for_ibfd.
ld/testsuite/
* ld-mips-elf/tls-hidden4.got, ld-mips-elf/tls-multi-got-1.d,
ld-mips-elf/tls-multi-got-1.got: Update for changes in the order
that symbols are added to per-bfd GOTs.

README for LD
This is the GNU linker. It is distributed with other "binary
utilities" which should be in ../binutils. See ../binutils/README for
more general notes, including where to send bug reports.
There are many features of the linker:
* The linker uses a Binary File Descriptor library (../bfd)
that it uses to read and write object files. This helps
insulate the linker itself from the format of object files.
* The linker supports a number of different object file
formats. It can even handle multiple formats at once:
Read two input formats and write a third.
* The linker can be configured for cross-linking.
* The linker supports a control language.
* There is a user manual (ld.texinfo), as well as the
beginnings of an internals manual (ldint.texinfo).
Installation
============
See ../binutils/README.
If you want to make a cross-linker, you may want to specify
a different search path of -lfoo libraries than the default.
You can do this by setting the LIB_PATH variable in ./Makefile
or using the --with-lib-path configure switch.
To build just the linker, make the target all-ld from the top level
directory (one directory above this one).
Porting to a new target
=======================
See the ldint.texinfo manual.
Reporting bugs etc
===========================
See ../binutils/README.
Known problems
==============
The Solaris linker normally exports all dynamic symbols from an
executable. The GNU linker does not do this by default. This is
because the GNU linker tries to present the same interface for all
similar targets (in this case, all native ELF targets). This does not
matter for normal programs, but it can make a difference for programs
which try to dlopen an executable, such as PERL or Tcl. You can make
the GNU linker export all dynamic symbols with the -E or
--export-dynamic command line option.
HP/UX 9.01 has a shell bug that causes the linker scripts to be
generated incorrectly. The symptom of this appears to be "fatal error
- scanner input buffer overflow" error messages. There are various
workarounds to this:
* Build and install bash, and build with "make SHELL=bash".
* Update to a version of HP/UX with a working shell (e.g., 9.05).
* Replace "(. ${srcdir}/scripttempl/${SCRIPT_NAME}.sc)" in
genscripts.sh with "sh ${srcdir}..." (no parens) and make sure the
emulparams script used exports any shell variables it sets.
