If linking in an object file without this attribute set, the
linker will assume that an executable stack might be needed.

This makes the generated assembly more internally consistent,
avoiding declaring two labels for the same function (for cases
where EXTERN_ASM is empty) and not declaring a separate unprefixed
label in other cases.
This also makes sure the .func and .type delcarations have the same
prefix. They have previously not been used on the platforms
that have prefixed symbols on arm (iOS), but gas-preprocessor
has recently started using the .func declarations for adding
.thumb_func declarations for such functions.

The function macro always sets .align 2 before declaring the
function label (since 5c5e1ea3) and always sets the section to
.text (since 278caa6a).
The .align 5 before certain functions, added in fc252eba, were added
before .text and .align were added to the function macro and thus
became useless/unused when the function macro got them.
This restores the original intention, to align the loop entry
points.

This matches the other eabi attribute in the same file. This is
required in order to build for arm/hardfloat with other object
file formats than ELF.

On recent android versions, /proc/self/auxw is unreadable
(unless the process is running running under the shell uid or
in debuggable mode, which makes it hard to notice). See
http://b.android.com/43055 and
https://android-review.googlesource.com/51271 for more information
about the issue.
This makes sure e.g. neon optimizations are enabled at runtime in
android apps even when built in release mode, if configured to
use the runtime detection.

Now, nellymoserenc and aacenc no longer depends on dsputil. Independent
of this patch, wmaprodec also does not depend on dsputil, so I removed
it from there also.
This is consistent with usual ARM nomenclature as well as with the
VFPV3 and NEON symbols which both lack the ARM prefix.

This allows compiling optimised functions for features not enabled
in the core build and selecting these at runtime if the system has
the necessary support.

All our ARM asm preserves alignment so setting this attribute
in a common location is simpler. This removes numerous warnings
when linking with armcc.

LDR with register offset and PC as base register is not available in
the Thumb instruction set so the addition must be done separately.

When building Thumb2 code, the end of a function, where the PIC
offsets are placed, need not be aligned. Although the values
are only accessed with instructions allowing unaligned addresses,
keeping them aligned is preferable.

Fixed-point audio codecs often use saturating arithmetic, and
special instructions for these operations are common.

Some compilers do not support the Q/R modifiers used to access
the low/high parts of a 64-bit register pair. Check for this
and disable all uses of it when not supported.
Fixes bug #337.

This creates proper position independent code when accessing
data symbols if CONFIG_PIC is set.
References to external symbols should now use the movrelx macro.
Some additional code changes are required since this macro may
need a register to hold the GOT pointer.

Commit adebad0 "arm: intreadwrite: fix inline asm constraints for gcc
4.6 and later" caused some older gcc versions to miscompile code.
This reverts to the old version of the code for these compilers.

Starting with version 4.7, gcc properly supports unaligned
memory accesses on ARM. Not using the inline asm with these
compilers results in better code.

With a dereferenced type-cast pointer as memory operand, gcc 4.6
and later will sometimes copy the data to a temporary location,
the address of which is used as the operand value, if it thinks
the target address might be misaligned. Using a pointer to a
packed struct type instead does the right thing.
The 16-bit case is special since the ldrh instruction addressing
modes are limited compared to ldr. The "Uq" constraint produces a
memory reference suitable for an ldrsb instruction, which supports
the same addressing modes as ldrh. However, the restrictions appear
to apply only when the operand addresses a single byte. The memory
reference must thus be split into two operands each targeting one
byte. Finally, the "Uq" constraint is only available in ARM mode.
The Thumb-2 ldrh instruction supports most addressing modes so the
normal "m" constraint can be used there.

This allows masking CPU features with the -cpuflags avconv option

The were broken since August of 2010 without anyone noticing until
three weeks ago. Nobody cares about it anymore and hopefully Marvell
will support NEON like in the PXA978 from now on.
