_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.
This is somewhat of a hack, but I find it better than having
to run env(1) from inetd(8), or changing the environment for
inetd(8) itself (and thus all daemons started by it).
* 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
symbol' errors, probably because the increment gets interrupted occasionally by
a signal. In general, _rtld_bind() should not modify ANY internal state.
* 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'.
