--- Comment #2 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> --- I generated a patch to change powerpc64 to use R_PPC64_IRELATIVE in this situation, but now I'm wondering if such a change is a good idea. IRELATIVE relocs must be resolved at program startup whereas JMP_SLOT can be resolved lazily. So we'd be slowing down program startup for no benefit at all if the function is never called, and only saving ld.so symbol resolution time if the function is called. I'm inclined to think this isn't a good idea. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
