elf: Set p_align to the minimum page size if possible
Currently, on 32-bit and 64-bit ARM, it seems that ld generates p_align values of 0x10000 even if no section alignment is greater than 0x1000. The issue is more general and probably affects other targets with multiple page sizes. While file layout absolutely must take 64K page size into account, that does not have to be reflected in the p_align value. If running on a 64K kernel, the file will be loaded at a 64K page boundary by necessity. On a 4K kernel, 64K alignment is not needed. The glibc loader has been fixed to honor p_align: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28676 similar to kernel: commit ce81bb256a224259ab686742a6284930cbe4f1fa Author: Chris Kennelly <ckennelly@google.com> Date: Thu Oct 15 20:12:32 2020 -0700 fs/binfmt_elf: use PT_LOAD p_align values for suitable start address This means that on 4K kernels, we will start to do extra work for 64K p_align, but this pointless for pretty much all binaries (whose section alignment rarely exceeds 16). The minimum page size is used, instead of the maximum section alignment due to this glibc bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28688 It has been fixed in glibc 2.35. But linker output must work on existing glibc binaries. 1. Set p_align to the minimum page size while laying out segments aligning to the maximum page size or section alignment. The run-time loader can align segments to the minimum page size or above, depending on system page size. 2. If -z max-page-size=NNN is used, p_align will be set to the maximum page size or the largest section alignment. 3. If a section requires alignment higher than the minimum page size, don't set p_align to the minimum page size. 4. If a section requires alignment higher than the maximum page size, set p_align to the section alignment. 5. For objcopy, when the minimum page size != the maximum page size, p_align may be set to the minimum page size while segments are aligned to the maximum page size. In this case, the input p_align will be ignored and the maximum page size will be used to align the ouput segments. 6. Update linker to disallow the common page size > the maximum page size. 7. Update linker to avoid the common page size > the maximum page size. 8. Adjust pru_irq_map-1.d to expect p_align == sh_addralign: Section Headers: [Nr] Name Type Addr Off Size ES Flg Lk Inf Al [ 0] NULL 00000000 000000 000000 00 0 0 0 [ 1] .text PROGBITS 20000000 00007c 000004 00 AX 0 0 4 ...
