            Bug ID: 23304
           Summary: ARM linker fails to combine identical typeinfo
                    sections
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.31 (HEAD)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: nickc at redhat dot com
  Target Milestone: ---
            Target: ARM

Created attachment 11078

testcase.

The ARM linker fails to combine identical typeinfo sections from different
compilation units.

To see this compile the source files in the attached testcase with:

  g++ -c inst1.cpp inst2.cpp main.cpp
  g++ inst1.o inst2.o main.o

For the ARM target this will produce messages like this:

  ld-new: inst2.o:(.rodata+0x0): multiple definition of `typeinfo for 
  test_template<long, 2l>'; inst1.o:(.rodata+0x0): first defined here

Other targets, eg AArch64 and x86_64, do not have this problem.

This bug was originally reported alongside a memory exhaustion problem 
in the Fedora version of the linker:
