ELFv2 needs to create plt entries in a non-PIC executable for an

possible that an object file has no features that distinguish it as
ELFv1 or ELFv2, eg. an object only containing data. Such files need
to be handled like those that are known to be ELFv2.

Similar to the powerpc64 patch, this improves overflow checking in
elf32-ppc.c. Many reloc "howto" entries needed fixes, some just
cosmetic.
The patch also fixes the R_PPC_VLE_SDA21 reloc application code, which
was horribly broken. In fact, it may still be broken since Power ISA
2.07 says e_li behaves as
RT <- EXTS(li20 1:4 || li20 5:8 || li20 0 || li20 9:19)
where li20 is a field taken from bits 17..20, 11..15, 21..31 of the
instruction. Freescale VLEPEM says differently, and I assume
correctly, that
RT <- EXTS(li20 0:3 || li20 4:8 || li20 9:19)
The VLE_SDA21 relocation description matches this too.
Now the VLE_SDA21 relocation specifies in the case where e_addi16 is
converted to e_li for symbols in .PPC.EMB.sdata0 or .PPC.EMB.sbss0
(no base register), that the field is restricted to 16 bits, with the
sign bit being propagated to the top 4 bits. I don't see the sense in
restricting the value like this, so have allowed the full 20 bit
signed value. This of course is compatible with the reloc description
in that values in the 16 bit signed range will result in exactly the
same insn field as when the reloc description is followed to the
letter.
* elf32-ppc.c (ppc_elf_howto_raw): Correct overflow check for
many relocations. Correct bitsize and rightshift too for a number

R_PPC64_ADDR16 is used in three contexts:
- .short data relocation
- 16-bit signed insn fields, eg. addi
- 16-bit unsigned insn fields, eg. ori
In the first case we want to allow both signed and unsigned 16-bit
values, the latter two ought to error if the field exceeds the range
of values allowed for 16-bit signed and unsigned integers
respectively. These conflicting requirements meant that ld had to
choose the least restrictive overflow checks, and thus it is possible
to construct testcases where an addi field overflows but is not
reported by ld. Many relocations dealing with 16-bit insn fields have
this problem. What's more, some relocations that are only ever used
for signed fields of instructions woodenly copied the lax overflow
checking of R_PPC64_ADDR16.

GDB then fails to find the memory for libpthreads.a variables in the

Intel MPX introduces 4 bound registers, which will be used for parameter
passing in x86-64. Bound registers are cleared by branch instructions.
Branch instructions with BND prefix will keep bound register contents.
This leads to 2 requirements to 64-bit MPX run-time:
1. Dynamic linker (ld.so) should save and restore bound registers during
symbol lookup.
2. Change the current 16-byte PLT0:
ff 35 08 00 00 00 pushq GOT+8(%rip)
ff 25 00 10 00 jmpq *GOT+16(%rip)
0f 1f 40 00 nopl 0x0(%rax)
and 16-byte PLT1:
ff 25 00 00 00 00 jmpq *name@GOTPCREL(%rip)
68 00 00 00 00 pushq $index
e9 00 00 00 00 jmpq PLT0
which clear bound registers, to preserve bound registers.
We use 2 new relocations:
to mark branch instructions with BND prefix.
When linker sees any R_X86_64_PC32_BND or R_X86_64_PLT32_BND relocations,
it switches to a different PLT0:
ff 35 08 00 00 00 pushq GOT+8(%rip)
f2 ff 25 00 10 00 bnd jmpq *GOT+16(%rip)
0f 1f 00 nopl (%rax)
to preserve bound registers for symbol lookup and it also creates an
external PLT section, .pl.bnd. Linker will create a BND PLT1 entry
in .plt:
68 00 00 00 00 pushq $index
f2 e9 00 00 00 00 bnd jmpq PLT0
0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0(%rax,%rax,1)
and a 8-byte BND PLT entry in .plt.bnd:
f2 ff 25 00 00 00 00 bnd jmpq *name@GOTPCREL(%rip)
90 nop
Otherwise, linker will create a legacy PLT1 entry in .plt:
68 00 00 00 00 pushq $index
e9 00 00 00 00 jmpq PLT0
66 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopw 0(%rax,%rax,1)
and a 8-byte legacy PLT in .plt.bnd:
ff 25 00 00 00 00 jmpq *name@GOTPCREL(%rip)
66 90 xchg %ax,%ax
The initial value of the GOT entry for "name" will be set to the the
"pushq" instruction in the corresponding entry in .plt. Linker will
resolve reference of symbol "name" to the entry in the second PLT,
.plt.bnd.
Prelink stores the offset of pushq of PLT1 (plt_base + 0x10) in GOT[1]
and GOT[1] is stored in GOT[3]. We can undo prelink in GOT by computing
the corresponding the pushq offset with
GOT[1] + (GOT offset - &GOT[3]) * 2
Since for each entry in .plt except for PLT0 we create a 8-byte entry in
.plt.bnd, there is extra 8-byte per PLT symbol.
We also investigated the 16-byte entry for .plt.bnd. We compared the
8-byte entry vs the the 16-byte entry for .plt.bnd on Sandy Bridge.
There are no performance differences in SPEC CPU 2000/2006 as well as
micro benchmarks.
Pros:
No change to undo prelink in dynamic linker.
Only 8-byte memory overhead for each PLT symbol.
Cons:
Extra .plt.bnd section is needed.
Extra 8 byte for legacy branches to PLT.
GDB is unware of the new layout of .plt and .plt.bnd.

This patch provides a means for backend relax_section support to
increase the size of a section without needing to reallocate
section contents. This helps reduce memory usage when the added space
does not need to be written in relax_section, as is the case for
powerpc. Writing the stubs later means a few tweaks are needed in the
powerpc relocate_section function, but also removes some code
duplication since the extra ld -r relocs can be written there too.

This implements a work-around for an icache bug on 476 that can cause
execution of stale instructions when control falls through from one
page to the next. The idea is to prevent such fall-through by
replacing the last instruction on a page with a branch to a patch
area containing the instruction, then branch to the next page.
The patch also fixes a number of bugs in the existing support for long

After resolving a versioned reference, foo@VER1, to a default versioned
definition, foo@@VER1, from a shared object, we also merge it with
the existing regular default symbol definition, foo. When foo is IFUNC
and foo@@VER1 aren't, we will merge 2 incompatible definitions. This
patch avoids merging foo@@VER1 definition with foo definition if
one is IFUNC and the other isn't.
There is nothing linker can do when a type mismatched default definition

non-PIC references to __ehdr_start in pie and shared
Rather than hacking every backend to not discard dynamic relocations
against an undefined hidden __ehdr_start, make it appear to be defined
early. We want __ehdr_start hidden before size_dynamic_sections so
that it isn't put in .dynsym, but we do need the dynamic relocations
for a PIE or shared library with a non-PIC reference. Defining it
early is wrong if we don't actually define the symbol later to its
proper value. (In some cases we want to leave the symbol undefined,
for example, when the ELF header isn't loaded, and we don't have this
infomation available in before_allocation.)
