R_PPC_UADDR32 (R_PPC64_UADDR64) has the same meaning as R_PPC_ADDR32 (R_PPC64_ADDR64), except that its address need not be aligned. For powerpc64, BFD ld(1) will automatically convert between ADDR<->UADDR relocations when the address is/isn't at its native alignment. This will happen if, for example, there is a pointer in a packed struct. gold and lld do not currently generate R_PPC64_UADDR64, but pass through misaligned R_PPC64_ADDR64 relocations from object files, possibly relaxing them to misaligned R_PPC64_RELATIVE. In both cases (relaxed or not) this violates the PSABI, which defines the relevant field type as "a 64-bit field occupying 8 bytes, the alignment of which is 8 bytes unless otherwise specified." All three linkers violate the PSABI on 32-bit powerpc, where the only difference is that the field is 32 bits wide, aligned to 4 bytes. Currently musl fails to load executables linked by BFD ld containing R_PPC64_UADDR64, with the error "unsupported relocation type 43". This change provides compatibility with BFD ld on powerpc64, and any static linker on either architecture that starts following the PSABI more closely. |

musl libc
musl, pronounced like the word "mussel", is an MIT-licensed
implementation of the standard C library targetting the Linux syscall
API, suitable for use in a wide range of deployment environments. musl
offers efficient static and dynamic linking support, lightweight code
and low runtime overhead, strong fail-safe guarantees under correct
usage, and correctness in the sense of standards conformance and
safety. musl is built on the principle that these goals are best
achieved through simple code that is easy to understand and maintain.
The 1.1 release series for musl features coverage for all interfaces
defined in ISO C99 and POSIX 2008 base, along with a number of
non-standardized interfaces for compatibility with Linux, BSD, and
glibc functionality.
For basic installation instructions, see the included INSTALL file.
Information on full musl-targeted compiler toolchains, system
bootstrapping, and Linux distributions built on musl can be found on
