H.J. Lu 6347f4a090 Add retain attribute to place symbols in SHF_GNU_RETAIN section
When building Linux kernel, ld in bninutils 2.36 with GCC 11 generates
thousands of

ld: warning: orphan section `.data.event_initcall_finish' from `init/main.o' being placed in section `.data.event_initcall_finish'
ld: warning: orphan section `.data.event_initcall_start' from `init/main.o' being placed in section `.data.event_initcall_start'
ld: warning: orphan section `.data.event_initcall_level' from `init/main.o' being placed in section `.data.event_initcall_level'

Since these sections are marked with SHF_GNU_RETAIN, they are placed in
separate sections.  They become orphan sections since they aren't expected
in the Linux kernel linker script. But orphan sections normally don't work
well with the Linux kernel linker script and the resulting kernel crashed.

Add the "retain" attribute to place symbols in separate SHF_GNU_RETAIN
sections.  Issue a warning if the configured assembler/linker doesn't
support SHF_GNU_RETAIN.

gcc/

	PR target/99113
	* varasm.c (get_section): Replace SUPPORTS_SHF_GNU_RETAIN with
	looking up the retain attribute.
	(resolve_unique_section): Likewise.
	(get_variable_section): Likewise.
	(switch_to_section): Likewise.  Warn when a symbol without the
	retain attribute and a symbol with the retain attribute are
	placed in the section with the same name, instead of the used
	attribute.
	* doc/extend.texi: Document the "retain" attribute.

gcc/c-family/

	PR target/99113
	* c-attribs.c (c_common_attribute_table): Add the "retain"
	attribute.

This directory contains the GNU Compiler Collection (GCC).

The GNU Compiler Collection is free software.  See the files whose
names start with COPYING for copying permission.  The manuals, and
some of the runtime libraries, are under different terms; see the
individual source files for details.

The directory INSTALL contains copies of the installation information
as HTML and plain text.  The source of this information is
gcc/doc/install.texi.  The installation information includes details
of what is included in the GCC sources and what files GCC installs.

See the file gcc/doc/gcc.texi (together with other files that it
includes) for usage and porting information.  An online readable
version of the manual is in the files gcc/doc/gcc.info*.

See http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs/ for how to report bugs usefully.

Copyright years on GCC source files may be listed using range
notation, e.g., 1987-2012, indicating that every year in the range,
inclusive, is a copyrightable year that could otherwise be listed
individually.
