[Bug ld/18836] ld handles .gnu.lto_ prefixed sections oddly, /DISCARD/ semantics unclear
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18836 --- Comment #14 from Richard Guenther --- Ok, so let me try to revive the discussion and view the needs from a "need plugin support" angle. What I need is the linker to allow the plugin to claim only a subset of the sections of the input files (those not containing the early debug LTO sections) and direct the linker to feed the remaining sections (or a specially set of marked sections) to the final link, including the possibility to have it "rename" those sections. I am "abusing" the linker script syntax to direct the linker to do the renaming and selecting the set of sections we do not claim. So with that view on the issue how would you suggest to implement this plugin-API wise? (using linker script syntax in a plugin output like the BFD linker already accepts still looks appealing to me) Also when the user passes -g0 at the link command linke we should be able to drop those early debug sections and do not link them. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils

[Bug gold/13521] ld.gold prefers unversioned symbol over default version
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13521 Jason Gunthorpe changed: What|Removed |Added CC||jgunthorpe at gmail dot com --- Comment #5 from Jason Gunthorpe --- This is still an active problem. I just hit it when working with libsctp on Ubuntu Vivid: int main(int argc,const char *argv[]) { printf("Here %p\n",&sctp_connectx); } $ gcc -fuse-ld=gold t.cc -lsctp $ readelf -s a.out | grep -i sctp 7: 00400520 0 FUNCGLOBAL DEFAULT UND sctp_connectx 36: 0 FUNCGLOBAL DEFAULT UND sctp_connectx $ gcc t.cc -lsctp $ readelf -s a.out | grep -i sctp 7: 00400560 0 FUNCGLOBAL DEFAULT UND sctp_connectx@VERS_3 (3) 56: 00400560 0 FUNCGLOBAL DEFAULT UND sctp_connectx@@VERS_3 The net result is the worst possible scenario - no error, no warning, and the binary subtly doesn't work because it links to the wrong symbol. Just like fuse and liblzma5, the author exactly followed the ld documentation and expected this stuff to work. I'm not sure why the behaviour of lds.so is being linked to this bug. It is a good point that a shared library should not depend on this behaviour because it does not work as described in ld.so. This will impact any transition plan to introduce the symbol version. It is reasonable for gold to fail to link such shared libraries. However that has *NOTHING* to do with linking a new executable against a library that uses that construct. GNU ld is not broken in this area and the expected link result is crystal clear - gold should choose the default symbol marked with @@, not the un-versioned one. I have no idea how many fringe libraries are out there that followed the GNU documentation and thus can't be linked into a executable when gold is the linker. I think it is probably a good enough number that this warrants being addressed in gold. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
