--- Comment #3 from Fangrui Song <maskray at google dot com> --- (In reply to Alan Modra from comment #2) > .rela.plt in a static executable can only contain IRELATIVE relocations that > must have a zero symbol index. Thus it is not necessary for that particular > SHT_RELA section to have sh_link index .symtab.
