R_AARCH64_ABS64, R_AARCH64_ABS32 and R_AARCH64_ABS16 are data relocations
supported in AArch64 elf ABI.
R_AARCH64_ABS64 under LP64 is allowed in shared object and a dynamic relocation entry
will be generated. This allows the dynamic linker to do further symbol resolution.
R_AARCH64_ABS32 likewise is allowed in shared object, however under ILP32 abi.
The original behavior for R_AARCH64_ABS32 under LP64 is that, it's allowed
in shared object and silently resolved at static linking time.
No dynamic relocation entry is generate for it.
R_AARCH64_ABS16 is allowed in shared object under both L64 and ILP32.
It's resolved at static linking time as well.
Under LP64, the address should be 64-bit. R_AARCH64_ABS32 relocation indicates
an address that is only sized 32 bits which is meaningless in LP64 shared object.
It's useful to error out.
I have checked glibc dynamic linker code, R_AARCH64_ABS16 is not supported at all. So
R_AARCH64_ABS16 should be reject in shared object completely.
In this patch, R_AARCH64_ABS32 is rejected under LP64 in constant section of shared object.
R_AARCH64_ABS16 is rejected in constant section of shared object in both ABI.
This will sometimes provide useful information for buggy code.

BFD is an object file library. It permits applications to use the
same routines to process object files regardless of their format.
BFD is used by the GNU debugger, assembler, linker, and the binary
utilities.
The documentation on using BFD is scanty and may be occasionally
incorrect. Pointers to documentation problems, or an entirely
rewritten manual, would be appreciated.
There is some BFD internals documentation in doc/bfdint.texi which may
help programmers who want to modify BFD.
BFD is normally built as part of another package. See the build
instructions for that package, probably in a README file in the
appropriate directory.
BFD supports the following configure options:
--target=TARGET
The default target for which to build the library. TARGET is
a configuration target triplet, such as sparc-sun-solaris.
--enable-targets=TARGET,TARGET,TARGET...
Additional targets the library should support. To include
support for all known targets, use --enable-targets=all.
--enable-64-bit-bfd
Include support for 64 bit targets. This is automatically
turned on if you explicitly request a 64 bit target, but not
for --enable-targets=all. This requires a compiler with a 64
bit integer type, such as gcc.
--enable-shared
Build BFD as a shared library.
--with-mmap
Use mmap when accessing files. This is faster on some hosts,
but slower on others. It may not work on all hosts.
Report bugs with BFD to bug-binutils@gnu.org.
Patches are encouraged. When sending patches, always send the output
of diff -u or diff -c from the original file to the new file. Do not
send default diff output. Do not make the diff from the new file to
the original file. Remember that any patch must not break other
systems. Remember that BFD must support cross compilation from any
host to any target, so patches which use ``#ifdef HOST'' are not
acceptable. Please also read the ``Reporting Bugs'' section of the
gcc manual.
Bug reports without patches will be remembered, but they may never get
fixed until somebody volunteers to fix them.
