RISC-V: Relax PCREL to GPREL while doing other relaxations is dangerous.
I get the feedback recently that enable linker relaxations may fail to
build some program. Consider the following case,
.text
foo:
addi a0, a0, %pcrel_lo(.L2)
call foo
.L1: auipc a1, %pcrel_hi(data_g)
addi a1, a1, %pcrel_lo(.L1)
lui a2, %hi(data_g)
addi a2, a2, %lo(data_g)
lui a3, %tprel_hi(data_t)
add a3, a3, tp, %tprel_add(data_t)
addi a3, a3, %tprel_lo(data_t)
.L2: auipc a0, %pcrel_hi(data_g)
.data
.word 0x0
.global data_g
data_g: .word 0x1
.section .tbss
data_t: .word 0x0
The current ld reports `dangerous relocation error` when doing the
pcgp relaxation,
test.o: in function `foo':
(.text+0x0): dangerous relocation: %pcrel_lo missing matching %pcrel_hi
The .L2 auipc should not be removed since it is behind the corresponding
addi, so we record the information in the pcgp_relocs table to avoid
removing the auipc later. But current ld still remove it since we do not
update the pcgp_relocs table while doing other relaxations. I have two
solutions to fix the problem,
1. Update the pcgp_relocs table once we actually delete the code.
2. Add new relax pass to do the pcgp relaxations
At first I tried to do the first solution, and we need to update at
least three information - hi_sec_off of riscv_pcgp_lo_reloc, hi_sec_off
and hi_addr (symbol value) of riscv_pcgp_hi_reloc. Update the hi_sec_off
is simple, but it is more complicate to update the symbol value, since we
almost have to do parts the same works of _bfd_riscv_relax_call again in
the riscv_relax_delete_bytes to get the correct symbol value.
Compared with the first solution, the second one is more intuitive and
simple. We add a new relax pass to do the pcgp relaxations later, so
we will get all the information correctly in the _bfd_riscv_relax_call,
including the symbol value, without changing so much code. I do not see
any penalty by adding a new relax pass for now, so it should be fine
to delay the pcgp relaxations.
Besides, I have pass all riscv-gnu-toolchain regressions for this patch.
bfd/
* elfnn-riscv.c (_bfd_riscv_relax_section): Add a new relax pass
to do the pcgp relaxation later, after the lui and call relaxations,
but before the delete and alignment relaxations.
ld/
* emultempl/riscvelf.em (riscv_elf_before_allocation): Change
link_info.relax_pass from 3 to 4.
* testsuite/ld-riscv-elf/pcgp-relax.d: New testcase.
* testsuite/ld-riscv-elf/pcgp-relax.s: Likewise.
* testsuite/ld-riscv-elf/ld-riscv-elf.exp: Updated.
