Release notes:
We are very sorry to have to report that a problem was found with the
GNU Binutils 2.36 release. It turns out that it contained a small
portion of code that was not covered by an FSF copyright assignment.
So we have created a replacement release - 2.36.1 - with that code
removed.
In addition we found that a fix for a theoretical security
vulnerability[1] was itself broken and could result in the archiver
program "ar" misbehaving. So we have chosen to revert the fix from
the 2.36.1 release whilst the problem is properly resolved.

Now that 2.36.x has been added, that 2.35.x is the default version,
drop support for 2.33.x.
Note that we keep binutils 2.32.x as it is the latest version that
works for FLAT binaries (used on noMMU platforms).

Since version 2.34 binutils enables debuginfod support by default if the
debuginfod library is found to be available at build time.
On Fedora 32, libdebuginfod may be present on the system, and the
dependency chain of interest is then:
libdebuginfod.so
-> libcurl.so
-> libk5crypto.so
-> libcrypto.so
If the Buildroot configuration ever needs to build host-openssl, which
may happen when building the kernel to sign modules for example, this
leads to an inconsistency between the system-provided libcrypto and
ours, leading to missing symbols:
$ make defconfig
$ make host-binutils
$ ./output/host/bin/i686-buildroot-linux-uclibc-objdump --help
[--snip some help text--]
$ make host-openssl
$ ./output/host/bin/i686-buildroot-linux-uclibc-objdump --help
./output/host/bin/i686-buildroot-linux-uclibc-objdump: symbol lookup
error: /lib64/libk5crypto.so.3: undefined symbol: EVP_KDF_ctrl, version
OPENSSL_1_1_1b
EVP_KDF_ctrl comes from libcrypto:
$ nm -D /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.1.1 |grep EVP_KDF_ctrl
0000000000176000 T EVP_KDF_ctrl
$ nm -D output/host/lib/libcrypto.so.1.1 |grep EVP_KDF_ctrl
[--empty--]
So, if host-binutils tools, like objdump et al., are called after our
host-openssl is built, then when run, the system-provided libk5crypto.so
is used, but our libcrypto.so is used, because of the RPATH we set on
our host tools.
And boom.
Note that there is also a latent similar issue if we were to build our
host-libcurl too...

xtensa ld fails with the following message
ld: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.31.1 internal error, aborting at
elf32-xtensa.c:3283 in elf_xtensa_finish_dynamic_sections
during domoticz package build. It happens because of mismatch between
the size allocated for dynamic relocations in the executable image and
the number of PLT relocations actually written to the image. The
mismatch is caused by the fact that undefined weak symbol is treated as
dynamic (and thus needing PLT relocation), but xtensa linker not
expecting that.

In 1d42d0acca (binutils: ensure TARGET_CONFIGURE_ARGS is taken into
consideration for subdirs), the whole BUILD_CMDS was overriden in an
attempt to ensure that the target configure args (in fact, environment
variables) are indeed passed in the environment of the build command.
However, there is no reason to override the whole command, when we can
simply specify additional environment variables, as supported by the
autotools infra.

The commit 197b5f9d1c ("package/binutils: fix loops relaxation in
xtensa gas") changed the way loop opcodes are relaxed resulting in build
failures in hand-made assembly code that has loops in sections without
.literal_position pseudo op or equivalent construct. This e.g. breaks
xtensa linux kernel build.
Fix that by adding literal position to the beginning of every section.

Loop relaxation logic in xtensa gas may produce code in which LEND
register doesn't match actual zero overhead loop end. Fix relaxation
code so that it produces a literal or a pair of const16 instructions
with associated relocation record that works correctly in the presence
of other relaxations. This fixes crash in X11 server caused by window
movement.
Loop relaxation has limited of 32K range, this fix removes this
limitation.

This reverts commit 7ec7ba5405, as it
causes build failures of host-gdb:
/usr/bin/ld: /home/buildroot/autobuild/instance-0/output/host/lib/libiberty.a(cplus-dem.o): relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against symbol `_sch_istable' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value
Indeed, the host-gdb build picks up the libiberty installed in
$(HOST_DIR) instead of using its own internal version. This needs to
be addressed before we can make host-binutils install libiberty in
$(HOST_DIR).

Binutils 2.29 and 2.30 are affected by a bug in ADR and ADRL
pseudo-instruction [1] that was fixed in Binutils 2.31 [2].
* The ADR and ADRL pseudo-instructions supported by the ARM assembler
now only set the bottom bit of the address of thumb function symbols
if the -mthumb-interwork command line option is active.
Due to this issue, we were default to binutils 2.28 for ARM Thumb. But
now that the issue has been fixed in binutils 2.31 and that this
version is the default, the special casing to use 2.28 is no longer
needed.
