2019-11-19[GOLD] OSABI not set when STT_GNU_IFUNC or STB_GNU_UNIQUE symbols outputAlan Modra1-4/+31
This patch arranges to have OSABI set to ELFOSABI_GNU (if not set to some other non-zero value) when gold outputs an ifunc local or global symbol, or a unique global symbol to either .dynsym or .symtab. STT_GNU_IFUNC and STB_GNU_UNIQUE have values in the LOOS to HIOS range and therefore require interpretation according to OSABI. I'm not sure why parameters->target() is const Target& while parameters->sized_target() is Sized_target*, but it's inconvenient to use the latter in Symbol_table::finalize. So this patch adds another const_cast complained about in layout.cc and gold.cc.

2018-07-14Fix problem causing duplicated linker-generated symbols with versions.Cary Coutant1-2/+5
When generating _end, _edata, etc. symbols, and a version script provides a version name, and we are linking against another shared library that provides those symbols with a different version, gold ends up trying to resolve the other shared library's symbols to the new definitions, resulting in two copies of each symbol, one as default, and one as non-default. This patch tests for that condition, and ignores the symbols provided by the other shared library. gold/ PR gold/23409 * symtab.cc (Symbol_table::define_special_symbol): Add check for version name on existing symbol. * testsuite/Makefile.am (ver_test_pr23409): New test case. * testsuite/Makefile.in: Regenerate. * testsuite/ver_test_pr23409.sh: New test script. * testsuite/ver_test_pr23409_1.script: New version script. * testsuite/ver_test_pr23409_2.script: New version script.
2018-06-21Fix treatment of symbol versions with unused as-needed libraries.Cary Coutant1-25/+8
When we have a weak reference to a symbol defined in an as-needed library, and that library ends up not-needed, gold simply clears the version information in the symbol table, even if the symbol could have been resolved by a needed library later in the link order. This results in a loss of version information, which can cause the program to bind to the wrong version at run time. This patch lets a dynamic definition override an earlier one if the earlier one is from a not-needed library, so that we can retain the version information from the binding to the needed library. In order to do that, the tracking of needed/not-needed had to be moved up to symbol resolution time, instead of during Symbol_table::set_dynsym_indexes(). In cases where we still end up discarding version information, I've added a warning.

2016-03-30Don't override definition a shared object by one in a later shared object.Cary Coutant1-0/+7
In PR 16979, a reference to malloc is being resolved to an unversioned reference in libmalloc.so. When linked with --as-needed, however, the dynamic table does not list libmalloc.so as a DT_NEEDED library. If we have a reference to an unversioned symbol in a shared object, and we later see a versioned definition in another shared object, we were overriding the first definition with the second in the process of defining the default version. As a result, we no longer think that the first shared object was actually needed to resolve any symbols, and we don't list it as a DT_NEEDED library. This patch fixes the problem by treating the two definitions as separate symbols, so the second definition does not override the first. 2016-03-30 Cary Coutant <ccoutant@gmail.com> gold/ PR gold/16979 * symtab.cc (Symbol_table::define_default_version): Check for case where symbols are both in different shared objects.

2015-08-18Fix symbol versioning problems in PR 18703.Cary Coutant1-3/+28
If a symbol is defined with ".symver foo,foo@VER", the assembler creates two symbols in the object: one unversioned, and one with the (non-default) version "VER". If foo is listed in a version script, gold would then make the first of those symbols the default version, and would ignore the second symbol as a duplicate, without making it a non-default version. While this is arguably reasonable behavior, it doesn't match Gnu ld behavior, so this patch fixes that by allowing the second definition to override the first by resetting the "default version" indication. Several test cases from the Gnu ld testsuite also exposed another related problem, where a symbol defined with ".symver foo,foo@", placed into a shared library, is not handled properly by gold.

2014-12-04powerpc gold, work around pr17670Alan Modra1-1/+0
pr17670 is about an assert triggering on a branch to an undefined weak symbol, the symbol being undefined due to dropping its comdat group section. (Well sort of. The symbol is actually defined in an .opd section which isn't part of the group, but the code section the opd entry points at is dropped.) So don't assert. Also, don't make long branch stubs to such symbols, and arrange to have target-reloc.h code warn when applying relocs that use the sym. PR 17670 * symtab.cc (Symbol::set_undefined): Remove assertion. * powerpc.cc (Target_powerpc::symval_for_branch): Don't assert on symbols defined in discarded sections, instead return false. Rearrange params, update all callers. (Target_powerpc::Branch_info::make_stub): Don't make stubs for branches to syms in discarded sections. (Global_symbol_visitor_opd::operator()): Set discarded opd syms undefined and flag as discarded. (Target_powerpc::Relocate::relocate): Localize variable.
2014-09-25Fix problem where TLS common symbols are not allocated properly during LTO.Cary Coutant1-4/+8
The plugin API doesn't provide a way for the claimed file handler to identify a TLS symbol, so when adding a common TLS symbol, gold mistakenly places the symbol in the non-TLS commons list, and does not override it when we see the replacement symbol that is marked as TLS. Consequently, we allocate the TLS common symbol as a regular common, and, if it's the only TLS in the program, we'll give an internal error because we haven't allocated a TLS segment. This patch fixes the problem by removing an exclusion where common symbols would not override the placeholder symbols, but checking to see if the size needs adjusting (the original reason for the exclusion). Furthermore, we need to avoid putting placeholder symbols in the common list, and wait until we see a real common symbol with a type we can trust. gold/ PR gold/17432 * resolve.cc (Symbol_table::resolve): Override common placeholder symbols, but adjust sizes. * symtab.cc (Symbol_table::add_from_object): Don't add placeholder symbols to common lists.
