Bug ID: 29980
Summary: error: undefined reference to plenty of exported
symbols that are referenced as hidden symbols
Product: binutils
Version: 2.39
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: gold
Assignee: ccoutant at gmail dot com
Reporter: mh-sourceware at glandium dot org
CC: ian at airs dot com
Target Milestone: ---
We've recently got this link failure with armv7 android Firefox, which appeared
from some innocuous and unrelated change, and disappeared a few days later on
some other unrelated change. Both BFD ld and gold fail, but lld doesn't. It
might imply some kind of weird corner case. What's kind of special about the
missing symbols is that they appear in a library that was produced by the rust
compiler, and as such they are "normal" exported symbols, but they are
referenced from C++ code compiled with clang, where they have a hidden
visibility attached in the corresponding object files. That however is not a
new setup, as that has been how Firefox is linked for years, and is still the
case now that it works again.
Here is a (large, unfortunately) tarball containing all the files needed to
reproduce:

The command to run is in the testcase/command file.
