The powerpc support was the only supported architecture not prepending the elf format name
with "-freebsd" in base this change makes it consistent with other architectures.
On newer version of binutils the powerpc format is also prepended with "-freebsd".
Also modify the kernel ldscripts in that regards.
As a result it is now possible cross build the kernel on powerpc using newer binutils

including an alignment. Previously binutils would only allow instructions
in the form "vld1.64 {d0, d1}, [r0, :128]" where the final comma should
not be there, instead the above instruction should be
"vld1.64 {d0, d1}, [r0:128]".
This change duplicates the alignment code from within the function to
handle this case.
libraries that need to be linked into an executable or library have to be
listed on the command line explicitly. This commit fixes a bug in ld(1)
where it would scan dependencies of the libraries on the command line and
link them if needed if they were also found in ld.so.cache.
The important bit of the patch is the initialisation of needed.by such that
libraries found by scanning dependencies are marked as such and not used in
the link.
The patch is a backport of binutils git commit

the same values as the -march= command line option. Add support for the
"sec" extension (security extensions).
We've been getting away without support for the sec extension because
it's bogusly enabled even on arches where its presence is optional. This
support for .arch_extension is being added mainly so that we can use the
right directives in our source code, and that helps folks using external
toolchains (and will help us when we finally update our toolchain).

This targets the existing ARMv6 and ARMv7 SoCs that contain a VFP unit.
This is an optional coprocessors may not be present in all devices, however
it appears to be in all current SoCs we support.
armv6hf targets the VFP variant of the ARM EABI and our copy of gcc is too
old to support this. Because of this there are a number of WITH/WITHOUT
options that are unsupported and must be left as the default value. The
options and their required value are:
* WITH_ARM_EABI
* WITHOUT_GCC
* WITHOUT_GNUCXX
In addition, without an external toolchain, the following need to be left
as their default:
* WITH_CLANG
* WITH_CLANG_IS_CC
As there is a different method of passing float and double values to
functions the ABI is incompatible with existing armv6 binaries. To use
this a full rebuild of world is required. Because no floating point values
are passed into the kernel an armv6 kernel with VFP enabled will work with
an armv6hf userland and vice versa.
Add support for stac/clac instructions to manipulate the flag

Fix the VCVT instruction. It must round towards zero when converting from
a floating-point to an integer value. This was not the case causing issues
when printing certain values.
There is a VCVTR instruction that will round depending on the current
rounding mode. We don't yet support this instruction, or setting the
rounding mode.
The header_length field is the number of bytes following the field to
the first byte of the line number program. The hard-coded constants
previously here (4 + 2 + 4) were correct only for 32-bit DWARF.

On MIPS .dynamic is read-only and so a special section .rld_map is used
to store the pointer to the rtld information for debuggers. This
section had a hard coded size of 4 bytes which is not correct for
mips64. (Note that FreeBSD's rtld does not yet populate .rld_map.)

for. This is useful for software needing to know which architecture a
binary is built for as arm and armv6 have slight differences meaning only
some binaries build for one will work as expected on the other. It is
expected pkgng will be able to make use of this to simplify the logic to
determine which package ABI to use.

smlal, and umlal the output registers are allowed to be the same as either
input registers, where in ARMv4 and ARMv5 they could only be the same as the
last input register.
This is the default behaviour of the newer binutils as well as most alternative linkers.
All the ports tree has been fixed to be able to link properly with this new behaviour.

Fix this by moving the call to parse_big_immediate to the end of the if,

This helps on ARM EABI where the OS/ABI field is zero. It would be better
to use the NOTES program header however this would require a more invasive
change.
