[PATCH] SHF_MERGE support for gcc


Hi!

This patch below puts string constants (unless they contain embedded '\0's)
and other small constants (like floating point constants) into separate
.rodata.XXX sections with SHF_MERGE flag set (and for strings even
SHF_STRINGS) if the assembler/linker support it (ELF only so far).
Like that linker can merge duplicates.
Unfortunately, SELECT_SECTION/SELECT_RTX_SECTION needs for this decision
know what alignment will be output (and adding the ALIGN argument means
touching many headers :( ).
With this patch (and current CVS gas/ld with the patch I've just posted to
binutils list) gcc bootstrapped on i386-redhat-linux with 2 regressions:
g++.ext/pretty4.C:
void baz ()
{
  ptr = __FUNCTION__;
  // there should be no string const merging
  if (ptr == "baz")
    fail = 1;
and
g++.other/string2.C:
int main ()
{
  static const char ary[] = "wibble";
  void const *ptr = 0;

  ptr = ary;
  if (ptr == "wibble")
    return 1;
Both of these make assumptions that strings are never merged.
Is there something in C++ which mandates this behaviour? Or in C?
The patch below is perhaps too aggressive, it merges e.g. even:
const double d = 2.0;
const double e = 2.0;
into one memory location, is there something wrong about it from the
standards point of view? If yes, the patch can limit itself to non-variables
(ie. just STRING_CSTs which are not constant arrays and constant pool).

	* configure.in: Check whether assembler supports section merging.
	* config.in: Rebuilt.
	* configure: Rebuilt.
	* varasm.c (variable_section, output_constant_pool): Pass alignment
	to SELECT_SECTION and SELECT_RTX_SECTION.

	argument.
	* config/elfos.h (EXTRA_SECTIONS): Added new sections.
