From 2d0d44d514d9a2e2b0f7ae8129d52b02160c9897 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Modra Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2017 11:02:57 +1030 Subject: Inconsistent .eh_frame_hdr on powerpc64 There is code in bfd/elf-eh-frame.c and ld/emultempl/elf32.em that checks for the presence of eh_frame info by testing for a section named .eh_frame sized more than 8 bytes. The size test is to exclude a zero terminator. A similar check in elf64-ppc.c wrongly just tested for non-zero size before creating the linker generated .eh_frame describing plt call and other linkage stubs. The intention was to not generate that info unless there was some user .eh_frame. (No user .eh_frame implies the user doesn't care about exception handling.) Because the test in elf64-ppc.c was wrong, ld generated the stub .eh_frame just on finding a zero .eh_frame terminator in crtend.o, but didn't generate the corresponding .eh_frame_hdr. * elf64-ppc.c (ppc64_elf_size_stubs): Correct test for user .eh_frame info. --- bfd/elf64-ppc.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'bfd/elf64-ppc.c') diff --git a/bfd/elf64-ppc.c b/bfd/elf64-ppc.c index 181bbdc..31ee412 100644 --- a/bfd/elf64-ppc.c +++ b/bfd/elf64-ppc.c @@ -12700,7 +12700,7 @@ ppc64_elf_size_stubs (struct bfd_link_info *info) if (htab->glink_eh_frame != NULL && !bfd_is_abs_section (htab->glink_eh_frame->output_section) - && htab->glink_eh_frame->output_section->size != 0) + && htab->glink_eh_frame->output_section->size > 8) { size_t size = 0, align = 4; -- cgit v1.1
