Following on from PR 22929, I have found the same problem exists with
other ifunc supporting targets too. Plus see this link for the bug
being reported against the s390x binutils for Fedora rawhide:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1553705
So I am going to check in the patch below which applies the same
change that H.J. made for the x86_64 target to the other affected
targets. (Specifically: S390, AArch64 and Sparc). Plus it adds a new
test to the linker testsuite to make sure that this problem stays
fixed.
bfd * elf64-s390.c (elf_s390_relocate_section): Move check for
relocations against non-allocated sections to before the code that
handles ifunc relocations.
* elf32-s390.c (elf_s390_relocate_section): Likewise.
* elfnn-aarch64.c (elfNN_aarch64_final_link_relocate): Treat
relocs against IFUNC symbols in non-allocated sections as relocs
against FUNC symbols.
* elfxx-sparc.c (_bfd_sparc_elf_relocate_section): Likewise.
ld * testsuite/ld-ifunc/ifuncmod5.s: New test. Checks that targets
that support IFUNC symbols can handle relocations against those
symbols in NOTE sections.
* testsuite/ld-ifunc/ifuncmod5.d: New file: Driver for the new
test.
* testsuite/ld-ifunc/ifunc.exp: Run the new test.

README for LD
This is the GNU linker. It is distributed with other "binary
utilities" which should be in ../binutils. See ../binutils/README for
more general notes, including where to send bug reports.
There are many features of the linker:
* The linker uses a Binary File Descriptor library (../bfd)
that it uses to read and write object files. This helps
insulate the linker itself from the format of object files.
* The linker supports a number of different object file
formats. It can even handle multiple formats at once:
Read two input formats and write a third.
* The linker can be configured for cross-linking.
* The linker supports a control language.
* There is a user manual (ld.texinfo), as well as the
beginnings of an internals manual (ldint.texinfo).
Installation
============
See ../binutils/README.
If you want to make a cross-linker, you may want to specify
a different search path of -lfoo libraries than the default.
You can do this by setting the LIB_PATH variable in ./Makefile
or using the --with-lib-path configure switch.
To build just the linker, make the target all-ld from the top level
directory (one directory above this one).
Porting to a new target
=======================
See the ldint.texinfo manual.
Reporting bugs etc
===========================
See ../binutils/README.
Known problems
==============
The Solaris linker normally exports all dynamic symbols from an
executable. The GNU linker does not do this by default. This is
because the GNU linker tries to present the same interface for all
similar targets (in this case, all native ELF targets). This does not
matter for normal programs, but it can make a difference for programs
which try to dlopen an executable, such as PERL or Tcl. You can make
the GNU linker export all dynamic symbols with the -E or
--export-dynamic command line option.
HP/UX 9.01 has a shell bug that causes the linker scripts to be
generated incorrectly. The symptom of this appears to be "fatal error
- scanner input buffer overflow" error messages. There are various
workarounds to this:
* Build and install bash, and build with "make SHELL=bash".
* Update to a version of HP/UX with a working shell (e.g., 9.05).
* Replace "(. ${srcdir}/scripttempl/${SCRIPT_NAME}.sc)" in
genscripts.sh with "sh ${srcdir}..." (no parens) and make sure the
emulparams script used exports any shell variables it sets.
