_rtld_relocate_nonplt_self(), which is called from _rtld_start.
Now we're completely relocated before main() is called.
We also no longer need _GOT_END_, so junk the ld script.
This code assumes that ld.elf_so only contains RELATIVE relocs, but that's
supposed to be the case for -Bsymbolic anyway.
* Add a ld.so.script that exports _GOT_END_.
* Prebind the GOT in _rtld_start.
* Skip over GOT relocs in _rtld_relocate_nonplt_objects().
This makes debugging work better at least.
Large programs need multiple GOTs. The lazy binding stub in the PLT
can be reached from any of these GOTs, but the dynamic linker only
has enough information to fix up the first GOT entry. Thus, calls
through the other GOTs went through the time-consuming lazy binding
process on every call.
This fix rewrites the PLT entries themselves to bypass the lazy binding
for those GOT entries that the dynamic linker can't fixup.
Fix from FreeBSD.
Note that now that we patch up the PLT, we need to put back the "imb"
that was removed from the binder exit path.
indicates whether we're relocating ld.elf_so itself. Use this in some places
rather than hackish tests on `dodebug'. (The Alpha and HPPA `dodebug' tests
were actually noops, because RTLD_RELOCATE_SELF is not set, and therefore
dodebug is always true.)
executable was of type ET_DYN. Use this instead of `mainprog' to determine
whether we need to do base-relative fixups of the PLT. (This allows loading
non-relocatable objects, should we desire to do that at some point...)
* _rtld_relocate_plt_lazy() fixes up all the relocs pointing to the PLT. (On
most platforms it just does a simple base-relative fixup; on SPARC it does
nothing.)
* _rtld_relocate_plt_object() does immediate binding for a PLT entry.
The basic gist is that this saves a bit of time on SPARC (where the iteration
through the pltrela table was gratuitous), and a little less time on all other
platforms. A whole lot of #ifdef'ed crap is moved out of reloc.c, too.
NOT tested on: hppa sh x86_64
* Pass a symbol number to _rtld_find_symdef(), not a r_info.
* Don't try to do a symbol lookup when we find an unsupported relocation;
instead get the symbol name from the referencing object's strtab.
* Add preliminary support for `-z combreloc'-style startup optimization on
i386, `#ifdef COMBRELOC'.
old PLT format, and one that works with the new.
XXX We currently always use _rtld_bind_start_old() in
_rtld_setup_alpha_pltgot(). We need to add code to peek
into one of the PLT entries to see which format it's in
and pick the correct binding routine.
use to find the end of the GOT, rather than relying on _DYNAMIC
to immediately follow the GOT. (A change in current binutils
moved _DYNAMIC, and thus would have broken our Alpha ld.elf_so).
* Add #ifdef'd out code to deal with the new PLT format.
with them, rather than defaulting them to zero. This caused breakage with
the drawf EH stuff and init/fini code when they weren't used by the caller
(and hence the appropriate handlers were left undefined). Also fix an un-
initialized variable in symbol.c that only MIPS MD code tripped over.
_rtld_bind_start must save and restore the condition codes. Varargs functions
(like, say, printf()) depend on the state of cr1 to determine whether they need
to store floating point registers in the save area. Without this, the first
call to any particular varargs function will fail if floating point values were
passed.
was ambiguous in the case of a weak symbol that was not defined. This caused
RTLD_NOW to fail badly with shared libraries linked against the new crtbegin.o.
