Greetings,
In the coming months I will be submitting AdaCore's accumulated binutils
patches as candidates for inclusion at the FSF. Most of them will be
related to our cross ports (e.g. VxWorks). A few were written by
engineers who are no longer with AdaCore. In that case I've done my
best to research the archeology to find the motivation.
------------------------------------------------------------------
The attached was originally written by Tristan Gingold. The motivation
is to handle PPC TLS on VxWorks in a way compatible with the WRS linker.
It's been extensively tested since 2012 with our own regression testsuite
.
Also, for this submission, with the latest binutils testsuite.
