Bug ID: 19264
Summary: [2.26/2.27 Regression] ld hangs (indefinite loop) when
building util-linux test case on powerpc64le-linux-gnu
Product: binutils
Version: 2.26
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: ld
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: doko at debian dot org
Target Milestone: ---

test case
seen when trying to run the test suite for util-linux on powerpc64le-linux-gnu
using binutils from the 2.26 branch.
from the downstream bug report:
"""
strace shows it repeatedly calling brk(), so presumably trying to allocate more
memory in very small increments.
It doesn't appear to be lto-related. The symptom is reproducible when calling
gcc with -fno-lto.
I do not yet have a useful backtrace from ld for this, because for some reason
recent versions of binutils are not getting dbgsym packages in the archive.
Rebuilding with nostrip, I get a backtrace that looks like this, with at least
partial symbols.
