commit 32ae0d80cd430150ad9536aa160f34f504e129bc
Author: Nick Clifton <ni...@redhat.com>
Date: Fri Apr 11 16:02:52 2014 +0100
PE32+ binaries that use addresses > 1^32 have a problem in that the linker
converts some address expressions into absolute values, but the PE format
only stores absolutes as 32-bits. This is a partial solution which
attempts
to convert such absolute values back to section relative ones instead. It
fails for symbols like __image_base and ImageBase__, but it is unclear as
to
whether these values are ever actually used by applications.
PR ld/16821
* peXXigen.c (abs_finder): New function.
(_bfd_XXi_swap_sym_out): For absolute symbols with values larger
than 1^32 try to convert them into section relative values
instead.
