1 | Things that still need to be done: -*- Text -*-
|

2 |
|

3 | o - A source of space lossage is that all the target-dependent code
|
---|
4 | is in a single bfd_target structure. Hence all the code for
|
---|
5 | *writing* object files is still pulled into all the applications
|
---|
6 | that only care about *reading* (gdb, nm, objdump), while gas has
|
---|
7 | to carry along all the unneeded baggage for reading objects. And
|
---|
8 | so on. This would be a substantial change, and the payoff would
|
---|
9 | not all that great (essentially none if bfd is used as a shared
|
---|
10 | library).
|
---|
11 |
|
---|
12 | o - The storage needed by BFD data structures is also larger than strictly
|
---|
13 | needed. This may be difficult to do much about.
|
---|
14 |
|
---|
15 | o - implement bfd_abort, which should close the bfd but not alter the
|
---|
16 | filesystem.
|
---|
17 |
|
---|
18 | o - update the bfd doc; write a how-to-write-a-backend doc, take out
|
---|
19 | the stupid quips and fill in all the blanks.
|
---|
20 |
|
---|
21 | o - upgrade the reloc handling as per Steve's suggestion.
