[PATCH v2 3/5] RISCV: Implement piecewise deletion

Patrick O'Neill patrick@rivosinc.com
Mon May 2 13:50:46 GMT 2022


Rather than deleting bytes immediately, we can first mark the bytes for
deletion. Then, using piecewise deletion, we reduce the runtime from
O(n^2) to O(n).

By moving the logic from the riscv_relax_delete_bytes function into the
RISCV_DELETE reloc handler, we can delete the bytes in a piecewise
manner.

2022-04-29 Patrick O'Neill <patrick@rivosinc.com>

	* elfnn-riscv.c: Move deletion logic into DELETE reloc handler
	  and replace with DELETE reloc creation logic.

Signed-off-by: Patrick O'Neill <patrick@rivosinc.com>
---
This change overwrites the R_RISCV_RELAX with a R_RISCV_DELETE reloc
when a relaxation wants to delete bytes. If it was going to delete a
reloc, we use that reloc rather than deleting it.

  reviewing more manageable
