Aligned sections can now be created with out_NewAlignedSection(). This information is stored in created object files, and read by the linker.
The names of each section are also included in the object file, enabling potential improvements to error messages in the future.
Deduplicates and generalises a lot of code in assign.c:
- Replace area_AllocAbs*AnyBank() with area_AllocAbsAnyBank() function
that accepts a section type parameter
- Replace area_Alloc*AnyBank() with area_AllocAnyBank()
- Replace FindLargest*() with FindLargestSection()
- Replace Assign*Sections() with AssignBankedSections()
- Add VerifyAndSetBank(), which enables bank checks (and addition with
BANK_*) to be centralised
- Refactor the initialisation of AssignSections(), removing some magic
numbers and only setting MaxAvail[i] once
- Overhaul the duplicated cases throughout AssignSections()
fatalerror() prints a given string to stdout and exits(5). It
cannot format text, so there was a string temptext used with
sprintf() to format text and pass it to fatalerror().
errx() can format text, and it prints to stderr.
As a bonus, this fixes the linking warnings from use of sprintf().
Merging lai's source with this one is very irritating because
they have different indentation styles. I couldn't find what profile
vegard used for his version, so I used these flags (which should bring
the source close to KNF):
