12 daysPR 33197 [AVR] Incorrect syntax in generated ldscriptAlan Modra1-10/+12
Rearrange scripttempl/avr.sc to avoid oddities of shells expanding ${RELOCATING+stuff} in here documents where "stuff" contains quoted strings. Also I think it is better to avoid multi-line "stuff" as it can be tricky to spot the ending brace.
2025-06-13ld,dlltool: move read-only delayimp data into .rdataJeremy Drake2-4/+11
This allows the delay IAT to be in its own section with nothing else, as required by IMAGE_GUARD_DELAYLOAD_IAT_IN_ITS_OWN_SECTION, documented at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/debug/pe-format#load-configuration-layout Signed-off-by: Jeremy Drake <sourceware-bugzilla@jdrake.com>
2025-06-13bfd,ld,dlltool: Emit delay-load import data into its own sectionLIU Hao2-2/+51
A delay-import symbol (of a function) is resolved when a call to it is made. The delay loader may overwrite the `__imp_` pointer to the actual function after it has been resolved, which requires the pointer itself be in a writeable section. Previously it was placed in the ordinary Import Address Table (IAT), which is emitted into the `.idata` section, which had been changed to read-only in db00f6c3aceabbf03acdb69e74b59b2d2b043cd7, which caused segmentation faults when functions from delay-import library were called. This is PR 32675. This commit makes DLLTOOL emit delay-import IAT into `.didat`, as specified by Microsoft. Most of the code is copied from `.idata`, except that this section is writeable. As a side-effect of this, PR 14339 is also fixed. Using this DEF: ``` ; ws2_32.def LIBRARY "WS2_32.DLL" EXPORTS WSAGetLastError ``` and this C program: ``` // delay.c #define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN 1 #include <windows.h> #include <stdio.h> ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // User code ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// DWORD WINAPI WSAGetLastError(void); extern PVOID __imp_WSAGetLastError; int main(void) { fprintf(stderr, "before delay load, __imp_WSAGetLastError = %p\n", __imp_WSAGetLastError); SetLastError(123); fprintf(stderr, "WSAGetLastError() = %d\n", WSAGetLastError()); fprintf(stderr, "after delay load, __imp_WSAGetLastError = %p\n", __imp_WSAGetLastError); __imp_WSAGetLastError = (PVOID) 1234567; fprintf(stderr, "after plain write, __imp_WSAGetLastError = %p\n", __imp_WSAGetLastError); } ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Overridden `__delayLoadHelper2` facility ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////// extern char __ImageBase[]; PVOID WINAPI ResolveDelayLoadedAPI(PVOID ParentModuleBase, LPCVOID DelayloadDescriptor, PVOID FailureDllHook, PVOID FailureSystemHook, FARPROC* ThunkAddress, ULONG Flags); FARPROC WINAPI DelayLoadFailureHook(LPCSTR name, LPCSTR function); FARPROC WINAPI __delayLoadHelper2(LPCVOID pidd, FARPROC* ppfnIATEntry) { return ResolveDelayLoadedAPI(&__ImageBase, pidd, NULL, (PVOID) DelayLoadFailureHook, ppfnIATEntry, 0); } ``` This program used to crash: ``` $ dlltool -nn -d ws2_32.def -y delay_ws2_32.a $ gcc -g delay.c delay_ws2_32.a -o delay.exe $ ./delay.exe before delay load, __imp_WSAGetLastError = 00007FF6937215C6 Segmentation fault ``` After this commit, it loads and calls `WSAGetLastError()` properly, and `__imp_WSAGetLastError` is writeable: ``` $ dlltool -nn -d ws2_32.def -y delay_ws2_32.a $ gcc -g delay.c delay_ws2_32.a -o delay.exe $ ./delay.exe before delay load, __imp_WSAGetLastError = 00007FF76E2215C6 WSAGetLastError() = 123 after delay load, __imp_WSAGetLastError = 00007FFF191FA720 after plain write, __imp_WSAGetLastError = 000000000012D687 ``` Reference: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/secbp/pe-metadata#import-handling Co-authored-by: Jeremy Drake <sourceware-bugzilla@jdrake.com> Signed-off-by: LIU Hao <lh_mouse@126.com> Signed-off-by: Jeremy Drake <sourceware-bugzilla@jdrake.com>
2025-06-07AVR: ld/32968 - Assert that .progmem data resides in the lower 64 KiB.Georg-Johann Lay1-10/+10
This patch locates the linker stubs / trampolines *after* all the .progmem sections. This is the natural placement since progmem data has to reside in the lower 64 KiB (it is accessed using LPM), whereas the linker stubs are only required to be located in the lower 128 KiB of program memory. (They must be in the range of EICALL / EIJMP with EIND = 0.) The current location of the linker stubs was motivated by an invalid test case from PR13812 that allocates more than 64 KiB of progmem data. The patch adds an assertion that makes sure that no progmem data is allocated past 0xffff. Data that is accessed using ELPM should be located to .progmemx so that no .progmem addresses are wasted. .progmemx was introduced in 2017 and is used by __memx, __flashx and by the current AVR-LibC. (The compiler uses .jumptables.gcc for its jump dispatch tables since https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=63223 / GCC v4.9.2). PR ld/32968 ld/ * scripttempl/avr.sc: Move the trampolines section after the .progmem sections. Assert that .progmem is in the lower 64 KiB.

2024-04-01hppa: Implement PA 2.0 symbolic relocations for long displacementsJohn David Anglin1-1/+1
The PA 2.0 architecture introduced several new load and store instructions with long displacements. These include floating point loads and stores for word mode, and integer and floating point loads and stores for double words. Currently, ld does not correctly support symbolic relocations for these instructions. If these are used, ld applies the standard R_PARISC_DPREL14R relocation and corrupts the instruction. This change uses bfd_hppa_insn2fmt to determine the correct relocation format. We need to check the computed displacement as the immediate value used in these instruction must be a multiple of 4 or 8 depending on whether the access is for a word or double word. A misaligned offset can potentially occur if the symbol is not properly aligned or if $global$ (the global pointer) is not double word aligned. $global$ is provided as a .data section start symbol. The patch adjusts elf.sc and hppalinux.sh to align .data to a 8-byte boundary in non-shared and non-pie links. 2024-04-01 John David Anglin <danglin@gcc.gnu.org> PR ld/31503 bfd/ChangeLog: * elf32-hppa.c (final_link_relocate): Output ld/ChangeLog: * emulparams/hppalinux.sh (DATA_SECTION_ALIGNMENT): Define. * scripttempl/elf.sc: Align .data section to DATA_SECTION_ALIGNMENT when relocating.

2023-07-17Support NEXT_SECTION in ALIGNOF and SIZEOFAlan Modra13-5/+13
This patch is aimed at making __bss_start properly aligned with the first of any bss-style sections following. Most of the work here involves keeping track of the last output section seen when processing the linker script. You can almost align __bss_start properly by using ${RELOCATING+. = ALIGN(${DATA_SDATA-${NO_SMALL_DATA-ALIGNOF(.${SBSS_NAME}) != 0 ? ALIGNOF(.${SBSS_NAME}) : }}${BSS_PLT+ALIGNOF(.plt) != 0 ? ALIGNOF(.plt) : }ALIGNOF(.${BSS_NAME}));} and changing every place that defines NO_SMALL_DATA to use " ", but having two .plt sections (marked SPECIAL) on some backends foils that idea. The problem is that you only want to pick up the following .plt, not the one preceeding __bss_start in the data segment if the backend decides that is the proper .plt section. Perhaps that could be fixed too, but I decided instead to extend the linker script a little. THIS_SECTION and PREV_SECTION could easily be added too. * ld.texi (ALIGNOF, SIZEOF): Update and mention NEXT_SECTION. * ldexp.c (output_section_find): New function.

Output sections without any input sections to initialise their flags have their flags initialised by data statements to LOAD, ALLOC, HAS_CONTENTS by default. This is wrong for .comment. Fix that by making the script initialise the section type to INFO, one of the noalloc section types. That also allows the address of .comment to be set to zero, as is usual for non-alloc sections.

2023-02-04ld: pru: Add optional section alignmentsDimitar Dimitrov1-3/+11
The Texas Instruments SoCs with AARCH64 host processors have stricter alignment requirements than ones with ARM32 host processors. It's not only the requirement for resource_table to be aligned to 8. But also any loadable segment size must be a multiple of 4 [1]. The current PRU default linker script may output a segment size not aligned to 4, which would cause firmware load failure on AARCH64 hosts. Fix this by using COMMONPAGESIZE and MAXPAGESIZE to signify respectively the section memory size requirement and the resource table section's start address alignment. This would avoid penalizing the ARM32 hosts, for which the default values (1 and 1) are sufficient. For AARCH64 hosts, the alignments would be overwritten from GCC spec files using the linker command line, e.g.: -z common-page-size=4 -z max-page-size=8 [1] https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/remoteproc/pru_rproc.c?h=v6.1#n555 ld/ChangeLog: * scripttempl/pru.sc (_data_end): Remove the alignment.

2023-02-04ld: pru: Merge the bss input sections into dataDimitar Dimitrov1-10/+14
The popular method to load PRU firmware is through the remoteproc Linux kernel driver. In order to save a few bytes from the firmware, the PRU CRT0 is spared from calling memset for the bss segment [1]. Instead the host loader is supposed to zero out the bss segment. This is important for PRU, which typically has only 8KB for instruction memory. The legacy non-mainline PRU host driver relied on the default behaviour of the kernel core remoteproc [2]. That default is to zero out the loadable memory regions not backed by file storage (i.e. the bss sections). This worked for the libgloss' CRT0. But the PRU loader merged in mainline Linux explicitly changes the default behaviour [3]. It no longer is zeroing out memory regions. Hence the bss sections are not initialized - neither by CRT0, nor by the host loader. This patch fixes the issue by aligning the GNU LD default linker script with the mainline Linux kernel expectation. Since the mainline kernel driver is submitted by the PRU manufacturer itself (Text Instruments), we can consider that as defining the ABI. This change has been tested on Beaglebone AI-64 [4]. Static counter variables in the firmware are now always starting from zero, as expected. There was only one new toolchain test failure in orphan3.d, due to reordering of the output sections. I believe this is a harmless issue. I could not rewrite the PASS criteria to ignore the output section ordering, so I have disabled that test case for PRU.

2023-01-04Avoid unaligned pointer reads in PEP .idata sectionMark Harmstone1-0/+1
This is something I discovered when working on aarch64, though it's relevant to x86_64 too. The PE32+ imports are located in the .idata section, which starts off with a 20-byte structure for each DLL, containing offsets into the rest of the section. This is the Import Directory Table in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/debug/pe-format, which is a concatenation of the .idata$2 sections. This is then followed by an 20 zero bytes generated by the linker script, which calls this .idata$3. After this comes the .idata$4 entries for each function, which the loader overwrites with the function pointers. Because there's no padding between .idata$3 and .idata$4, this means that if there's an even number of DLLs, the function pointers won't be aligned on an 8-byte boundary. Misaligned reads are slower on x86_64, but this is more important on aarch64, as the e.g. `ldr x0, [x0, :lo12:__imp__func]` the compiler might generate requires __imp__func (the .idata$4 entry) to be aligned to 8 bytes. Without this you get IMAGE_REL_ARM64_PAGEOFFSET_12L overflow errors.

2022-11-15bfd: linker: merge .sframe sectionsIndu Bhagat1-0/+2
The linker merges all the input .sframe sections. When merging, the linker verifies that all the input .sframe sections have the same abi/arch. The linker uses libsframe library to perform key actions on the .sframe sections - decode, read, and create output data. This implies buildsystem changes to make and install libsframe before libbfd. The linker places the output .sframe section in a new segment of its own: PT_GNU_SFRAME. A new segment is not added, however, if the generated .sframe section is empty. When a section is discarded from the final link, the corresponding entries in the .sframe section for those functions are also deleted. The linker sorts the SFrame FDEs on start address by default and sets the SFRAME_F_FDE_SORTED flag in the .sframe section. This patch also adds support for generation of SFrame unwind information for the .plt* sections on x86_64. SFrame unwind info is generated for IBT enabled PLT, lazy/non-lazy PLT. The existing linker option --no-ld-generated-unwind-info has been adapted to include the control of whether .sframe unwind information will be generated for the linker generated sections like PLT. Changes to the linker script have been made as necessary.
