max-page-size only matters for demand paged executables or shared
libraries, and the ideal size is the largest value used by your
operating system. Values larger than necessary just waste file space
and memory. common-page-size also affects file and memory size,
trading a possible small increase in file size for a decrease in
memory size when the operating system is using a common-page-size
page. With a powerpc max-page-size of 64k and common-page-size of 4k
many executables will use no more memory pages when the system page
size is 4k than an executable linked with -z max-page-size=0x1000,
yet will still run on a system using 64k pages. However, when running
on a system using 64k pages relro protection will not be completely
effective.
Due to the relro problem, powerpc binutils has been using a default
common-page-size of 64k since 2014-12-18 (git commit 04c6a44c7),
leading to complaints about increased file and memory sizes. People
not using relro do have a valid reason to complain..
So this patch introduces an extra back-end value to use as the default
for common-page-size when generating relro executables, and enables
the support for powerpc. Non relro executables will now be generated
with a default common-page-size of 4k.

In addition to the existing relocs we need two more to mark all
instructions in the call sequence, PLTCALL on the call itself (plus
the toc restore insn for ppc64), and PLTSEQ on others. All
relocations in a particular sequence have the same symbol.
Example ppc64 ELFv2 assembly:

std 2,24(1)
addis 12,2,puts@plt@ha # .reloc .,R_PPC64_PLT16_HA,puts

Marking sequences like this allows the linker to convert them to nops
and a direct call if the target symbol turns out to be local.
When the call is __tls_get_addr, each relocation shown above is paired
with an R_PPC*_TLSLD or R_PPC*_TLSGD reloc to additionally mark the

The PowerPC64 ELFv2 ABI and the PowerPC SysV ABI support a number of
relocations that can be used to create and access a PLT entry.
However, the relocs are not well defined. The PLT16 family of relocs
talk about "the section offset or address of the procedure linkage
table entry". It's plain that we do need a relative address when PIC
as otherwise we'd have dynamic text relocations, but "section offset"
doesn't specify which section. The most obvious one, ".plt", isn't
that useful because there is no readily available way of addressing
the start of the ".plt" section. Much more useful would be "the
GOT/TOC-pointer relative offset of the procedure linkage table entry",
and I suppose you could argue that is a "section offset" of sorts.
For PowerPC64 it is better to use the same TOC-pointer relative
addressing even when non-PIC, since ".plt" may be located outside the
range of a 32-bit address. However, for ppc32 we do want an absolute
address when non-PIC as a GOT pointer may not be set up. Also, for
ppc32 PIC we have a similar situation to R_PPC_PLTREL24 in that the
GOT pointer is set to a location in the .got2 section and we need to
specify the .got2 offset in the PLT16 reloc addend.
This patch supports PLT16 relocations using these semantics. This is
not an ABI change for ppc32 since the relocations were not previously
supported by GNU ld, but is for ppc64 where some of the PLT16 relocs
were supported. I'm not particularly concerned since the old ppc64
PLT16 reloc semantics made them almost completely useless.

It is possible to construct indirect calls to __tls_get_addr in
assembly that confuse TLS optimization. (PowerPC gcc doesn't support
such calls, ignoring -mlongcall for __tls_get_addr.) This patch fixes
the problem by requiring a TLSLD or TLSGD marker reloc before any insn
in an indirect call to __tls_get_addr will be optimized. They also
need additional marker relocs defined in a later patch, so don't
expect the optimization to work just yet. The point here is to
prevent mis-optimization of indirect calls without any marker relocs.
The presense of a marker reloc is tracked by a new bit in the tls_mask
field of ppc_link_hash_entry and the corresponding lgot_masks unsigned
char array for local symbols. Since the field is only 8 bits, we've
run out of space. However, tracking TLS use for variables, and
tracking IFUNC for functions are independent, and bits can be reused.
TLS_TLS is always set for TLS usage, so can be used to select the
meaning of the other bits. This patch does that even for elf32-ppc.c
which hasn't yet run out of space in the field.

to adjust from the original out-of-line save/restore function address

I tried to build this:

I haven't analyzed this myself, I'm relying on Nick's excellent
analysis. What I believe is happening is that after some number of
stub sizing iterations, a long-branch stub needs to be converted to a
plt-branch, but either due to stub alignment or other stubs shrinking
in size, the stub group section size doesn't change.
That means we exit from ppc64_elf_size_stubs after sizing with an
incorrect layout, in fact the additional .branch_lt entry overlays
.got! Since .TOC. is normally set to .got + 0x8000 the stub sizing
code decides that entry is within +/-32k of the TOC pointer and so a
three insn stub is sufficient. When we come to build the stubs using
a correct non-overlaying layout, a four insn plt-branch stub is
generated and the stub group size doesn't match that calculated
earlier.
* elf64-ppc.c (ppc64_elf_size_stubs): Iterate sizing when
.branch_lt changes size.
Asking for ppc32 plt call stubs to be aligned at 32 byte boundaries
didn't quite work. For ld.bfd they were spaced 32 bytes apart, but
only started on a 16 byte boundary. ld.gold also didn't get it right.
Finding that bug made me check over the ppc64 plt stub alignment,
where I found that negative values for alignment (meaning align to
minimize boundary crossing) were not accepted. Since no one has
complained about that, I guess I could have removed the feature from
ld.bfd documentation, but I've opted instead to correct the code.
I've also added an optional alignment paramenter for ppc32
--plt-align, for some consistency with gold and ppc64 ld.bfd.

This is in preparation for the next patch adding Spectre variant 2
mitigation for PowerPC and PowerPC64. Besides tidying code involved
in stub output (to reduce the number of places where bctr is output),
the patch adds some user visible features:
1) PowerPC64 ELFv2 global entry stubs now are aligned under the
control of --plt-align, with a default alignment of 32 bytes.
2) PowerPC64 __glink_PLTresolve is no longer padded out with nops.
3) PowerPC32 PLT stubs are aligned under the control of --plt-align,
with the default alignment being 16 bytes as before.
4) The PowerPC32 branch/nop table emitted before __glink_PLTresolve
is now smaller in many cases. It was sized incorrectly when the
__tls_get_addr_opt stub was used, and unnecessarily included space
for local ifuncs.

In early October, HJ Lu added support for a number of targets to "Dump
dynamic relocation in read-only section with minfo". This extends
that support to more targets, displays the symbol involved, and splits
the existing function that sets TEXTREL into a "readonly_dynrelocs"
and "maybe_set_textrel" function. I'll need "readonly_dynrelocs" if I
ever get around to fixing "pr22374 function pointer initialization"
fails.
am33_2.0, arc, bfin, hppa64, mn10300, and nios2 fail to mark a binary
needing text relocations with DT_TEXTREL. That's not good. xtensa also
fails to do so but complains about "dangerous relocation: dynamic
relocation in read-only section" so I reckon that is fine and have
marked the test as an xfail. The other targets need maintainer
attention.
Curiously, the map file dump wasn't added for x86, so the map test
currently fail on x86. It also fails on alpha, am33_2.0, arc, bfin,
hppa64, ia64, m68k, mips, mn10300, nios2, score and vax. cris
complains with "tmpdir/textrel.o, section .rodata: relocation
R_CRIS_32 should not be used in a shared object; recompile with -fPIC"
so I've marked it as an xfail.

This makes the elf_link_hash_entry weakdef field, currently used to
point from a weak symbol to a strong alias, a circular list so that
all aliases can be found from any of them. A new flag, is_weakalias,
distinguishes the weak symbol from a strong alias, and is used in all
places where we currently test u.weakdef != NULL.
With the original u.weakdef handling it was possible to have two or
more weak symbols pointing via u.weakdef to a strong definition.
Obviously that situation can't map to a circular list; One or more of
the weak symbols must point at another weak alias rather than the
strong definition. To handle that, I've added an accessor function to
return the strong definition.

The fix for the PR is to not use input_section->output_section->owner

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.
This patch was aimed at a FIXME in elf32-hppa.c, the ludicrous and
confusing fact that non_got_ref after adjust_dynamic_relocs in that
backend means precisely the inverse of what it means before
adjust_dynamic_relocs. Before, when non_got_ref is set it means there
are dynamic relocs, after, if non_got_ref is clear it means "keep
dynamic relocs" and later, "has dynamic relocs". There is a reason
why it was done that way.. Some symbols that may have dynamic
relocations pre-allocated in check_relocs turn out to not be dynamic,
and then are not seen by the backend adjust_dynamic_symbols. We want
those symbols to lose their dynamic relocs when non-pic, so it's handy
that non_got_ref means the opposite after adjust_dynamic_relocs. But
it's really confusing.
Most other targets, like ppc32, don't always set non_got_ref on
non-GOT references that have dynamic relocations. This is because the
primary purpose of non_got_ref before adjust_dynamic_relocs is to flag
symbols that might need to be copied to .dynbss, and there are
relocation types that may require dyn_relocs but clearly cannot have
symbols copied into .dynbss, for example, TLS relocations.
Why do we need a flag after adjust_dynamic_relocs to say "keep
dynamic relocations"? Well, you can discard most unwanted dyn_relocs
in the backend adjust_dynamic_relocs, and for those symbols that
aren't seen by the backend adjust_dynamic_relocs, in
allocate_dynrelocs based on a flag set by adjust_dynamic relocs,
dynamic_adjusted. That doesn't solve all our difficulties though.
relocate_section needs to know whether a symbol has dyn_relocs, and
many targets transfer dyn_relocs to a weakdef if the symbol has one.
The transfer means relocate_section can't test dyn_relocs itself and
the weakdef field has been overwritten by that time. So non_got_ref
is used to flag "this symbol has dynamic relocations" for
relocate_section.
Confused still? Well, let's hope the comments I've added help clarify
things.. The patch also fixes a case where we might wrongly emit
dynamic relocations in an executable for common and undefined symbols.

After the PR 21411 fix, the linker generated .eh_frame for ppc64 glink
can be edited by the generic code. The sequence of events goes
something like:
1) Some object file adds .eh_frame aligned to 8, making the output
.eh_frame aligned to at least 8, so linker generated .eh_frame FDE
is padded to an 8 byte boundary.
2) All .eh_frame past the glink .eh_frame is garbage collected.
3) Generic code detects that last FDE (the glink .eh_frame) doesn't
need to be padded to an 8 byte boundary, reducing size from 88 to
84.
4) elf64-ppc.c check fails.
