Re: Add PowerPC .gnu_attribute for the vector ABI


Hi Daniel,

This patch adds merging support for a .gnu_attribute which describes
the vector ABI: "generic", AltiVec, SPE, or don't-care.  I think this
is the most sensible arrangement, since the AltiVec and SPE
alternatives can not coexist.

2007-08-07 Daniel Jacobowitz <dan@codesourcery.com>

	* elf32-ppc.c (ppc_elf_merge_obj_attributes): Add support for
	Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_Vector.

	* readelf.c (display_power_gnu_attribute): Add support for
	Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_Vector.

* ppc.h (Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_Vector): New.

	* ld-powerpc/attr-gnu-8-1.s, ld-powerpc/attr-gnu-8-11.d,
	ld-powerpc/attr-gnu-8-3.s, ld-powerpc/attr-gnu-8-31.d: New.

Approved - please apply.


Cheers
  Nick
