Hi Magnus, a couple of comments, mostly nits.

Many of those entries are mis-formatted. See other examples and the GNU Coding Standards for details. E.g. the first would be * config/gnu-user.h (PIE_DRIVER_SELF_SPECS): Define. In general, you need to mention which macro, variable, manual section you change. Emacs' add-change-log-entry does the basics for you. Besides, you only state what changed, not why. Apart from that, I don't think defining PIE_DRIVER_SELF_SPECS in gnu-user.h is a good idea. This way, every other target supporting the option would have to duplicate that stuff. * testsuite/gcc/default-pie.c: New test for new configure option --enale-default-pie gcc/testsuite has its own ChangeLog file. Typo for --enale-... * testsuite/gcc.dg/other/anon5.C: Add skip test as it fail to link on effective_target default_pie. should be * g++.dg/other/anon5.C: Skip if default_pie. No explanations in ChangeLog entries; they belong into the code. Besides, you had the first dir component wrong. Again, Emacs does this for you. * testsuite/lib/target-supports.exp (check_profiling_available): We can't use profiling on effective target default_pie. (check_effective_target_pie): Add check_effective_target_default_pie. Wrong: should be * lib/target-supports.exp (check_effective_target_default_pie): New proc. The new default_pic effective-target keyword needs to be documented in doc/sourcebuild.texi. --- a/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/default-pie.c 2013-11-09 21:07:16.741479728 +0100 +++ b/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/default-pie.c 2013-11-09 21:05:07.801479218 +0100 @@ -0,0 +1,12 @@ +/* { dg-do compile { target *-*-linux* *-*-gnu* } } */ +/* { dg-require-effective-target default_pie } */ Why restrict to Linux, GNU? default_pie should be enough once other targets add this. --- a/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/tree-ssa/ssa-store-ccp-3.c 2012-03-14 17:33:37.000000000 +0100 +++ b/gcc/testsuite/gcc.dg/tree-ssa/ssa-store-ccp-3.c 2014-07-29 00:55:17.421086416 +0200 @@ -2,6 +2,9 @@ /* Skipped on MIPS GNU/Linux target because __PIC__ can be defined for executables as well as shared libraries. */ /* { dg-skip-if "" { *-*-darwin* hppa*64*-*-* mips*-*-linux* *-*-mingw* } { "*" } { "" } } */ +/* Skipped on default_pie targets because __PIC__ is + defined for executables. */ +/* { dg-skip-if "" { default_pie } { "*" } { "" } } */ Emit those default args, they're unnecessary.
