Plugin uses dlsym, but libasan.so only intercepts dlopen, not dlsym:
[hjl@gnu-tools-1 binutils-text]$ nm -D /lib64/libasan.so.4| grep " dl"
0000000000038580 W dlclose
U dl_iterate_phdr
000000000004dc50 W dlopen
U dlsym
U dlvsym
[hjl@gnu-tools-1 binutils-text]$
Testing dlopen for libdl leads to false negative when -fsanitize=address
is used. It results in link failure:
../bfd/.libs/libbfd.a(plugin.o): undefined reference to symbol 'dlsym@@GLIBC_2.16'
dlsym should be used to check if libdl is needed for plugin.
