We rely on PIE executables to get the codegen that is suitable for
PE/COFF conversion where the resulting executables can be loaded
anywhere in the address space.
However, ELF linkers may default to disallowing text relocations in PIE
executables, as this would require text segments to be updated at
runtime, which is bad for security and increases the copy-on-write
footprint of ELF executables and shared libraries.
However, none of those concerns apply to PE/COFF executables in the
context of EFI, which are copied into memory rather than mmap()'ed, and
fixed up by the loader before launch.
So pass -z notext to the LLD linker to permit runtime relocations in
read-only sections.

The ELF based toolchains use objcopy to create HII object files, which
contain only a single .hii section. This means no GNU note is inserted
that describes the object as compatible with BTI, even though the lack
of executable code in such an object makes the distinction irrelevant.
However, the linker will not add the note globally to the resulting ELF
executable, and this breaks BTI compatibility.
So let's insert a GNU BTI-compatible ELF note by hand when generating
such object files.

commit 17bd834eb5 ("BaseTools: Factorize GCC flags")
makes GCC48_ALL_CC_FLAGS inherit from GCC_ALL_CC_FLAGS.
GCC_ALL_CC_FLAGS contains the '-Os' flag.
The latest flag in a command line overrides the previous
optimization option. This allows more specific build
configuration to override the inherited '-Os' flag.
If a build configuration includes GCC48_ALL_CC_FLAGS,
hard-coded '-Os' options are not necessary anymore.

Even though the presence of the 'packed' pragma should be a strong hint
that the misaligned placement of a GUID in a struct is intentional,
recent Clang versions will object nonetheless, and break the build due

This is obviously not something we can fix in the code, so let's just
suppress the warning/error instead.

Recent GCC for ARM will complain when selecting the hard float ABI
without specifying the FPU implementation, even when just running the
preprocessor.
This all happens under the hood, and we never bothered in the past,
given that we don't emit floating point code anyway. However, to placate
newer compilers, make it explicit that the floating point ABI is always the
softfloat one, by moving the -msoft-float compiler option to
PLATFORM_FLAGS.

The global GCC_PP_FLAGS tools_def variable now contains a reference to
OpenSBI specific C preprocessor variables, which means they are added to
the command line on every architecture, not just RISC-V.
This does not currently result in any issues, but it is a bit sloppy so
let's clean this up. Given that the GCC_PP_FLAGS definition appears
twice, drop the one that carries the OpenSBI reference, and move that
reference to a new RISC-V specific variable.

The ebp/rbp register can either be used for the frame pointer or
as general purpose register. With gcc (and clang) this depends
on the -f(no-)omit-frame-pointer switch.
This patch updates tools_def.template to explicitly set the compiler
option and also add a define to allow conditionally compile code.
The new define is used to fix stack switching in TemporaryRamMigration.
The ebp/rbp must not be touched when the compiler can use it as general
purpose register. With version 12 gcc starts actually using the
register, so changing it leads to firmware crashes in some
configurations.

GCC48_ALL_CC_FLAGS has no dependency on GCC_ALL_CC_FLAGS.
By definition, there should be such dependency.
The outcomes of this patch is that GCC48_ALL_CC_FLAGS and
other dependent configurations will inherit from the
additional "-Os" flag.
The "-Os" flag optimizes a build in size, not breaking any
build. In a gcc command line, the last optimization flag
has precedence. This means that this "-Os" flag will be
overriden by a more specific optimization configuration,
provided that this more specific flag is appended at the
end of the CC_FLAGS.

By default, gcc allows void* pointer arithmetic.
This is a GCC extension.
However:
- the C reference manual states that void*
pointer "cannot be operands of addition
or subtraction operators". Cf s5.3.1
"Generic Pointers";
- Visual studio compiler treat such operation as
an error.
To prevent such pointer arithmetic, the "-Wpointer-arith"
flag should be set for all GCC versions.
The "-Wpointer-arith" allows to:
"Warn about anything that depends on the "size of"
a function type or of void. GNU C assigns these
types a size of 1, for convenience in calculations
with void * pointers and pointers to functions."
This flag is available since GCC2.95.3 which came out in 2001.
