Fix commit 647d4de92e06 ("Test undefined symbols in shared libraries") and remove "undefined symbols in shared lib (dyn reloc)" test failures for MIPS and S+core targets. This test assumes 3 dynamic relocation entries, however the respective psABIs define an extra single dummy *_NONE relocation at the beginning of the dynamic relocation table, which results in test output like the following for MIPS: Relocation section '.rel.dyn' at offset 0x33c contains 4 entries: Offset Info Type Sym.Value Sym. Name 00000000 00000000 R_MIPS_NONE 00010364 00000903 R_MIPS_REL32 00000000 undef_pfun 00010360 00000a03 R_MIPS_REL32 00000000 undef_data 00010368 00000b03 R_MIPS_REL32 00000000 undef_notype and S+core: Relocation section '.rel.dyn' at offset 0x274 contains 4 entries: Offset Info Type Sym.Value Sym. Name 00000000 00000000 R_SCORE_NONE 5ffe0464 00000e12 R_SCORE_REL32 00000000 undef_notype 5ffe045c 00000f12 R_SCORE_REL32 00000000 undef_data 5ffe0460 00001012 R_SCORE_REL32 00000000 undef_pfun targets respectively, and also n64 MIPS targets pad relocation triplets they use with extra *_NONE relocations, resulting in output like this: Relocation section '.rel.dyn' at offset 0x4c0 contains 4 entries: Offset Info Type Sym. Value Sym. Name 000000000000 000000000000 R_MIPS_NONE Type2: R_MIPS_NONE Type3: R_MIPS_NONE 000000010508 000900001203 R_MIPS_REL32 0000000000000000 undef_pfun Type2: R_MIPS_64 Type3: R_MIPS_NONE 000000010500 000a00001203 R_MIPS_REL32 0000000000000000 undef_data Type2: R_MIPS_64 Type3: R_MIPS_NONE 000000010510 000b00001203 R_MIPS_REL32 0000000000000000 undef_notype Type2: R_MIPS_64 Type3: R_MIPS_NONE Expect the right number of *_NONE relocations then, and adjust the total number of relocations expected accordingly. ld/ * testsuite/ld-undefined/undefined.exp: Correct the dyn reloc test for MIPS and S+core targets.
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.
