The PowerPC64 linker edits medium model toc-indirect code to toc-pointer relative: addis r9,r2,tc_entry_for_var@toc@ha ld r9,tc_entry_for_var@toc@l(r9) becomes addis r9,r2,(var-.TOC.)@ha addi r9,r9,(var-.TOC.)@l when "var" is known to be local to the binary. This isn't done for small-model toc-indirect code, because "var" is almost guaranteed to be too far away from .TOC. for a 16-bit signed offset. And, because the analysis of which .toc entry can be removed becomes much more complicated in objects that mix code models, they aren't removed if any small-model toc sequence appears in an object file. Unfortunately, glibc's build of ld.so smashes the needed objects together in a ld -r linking stage. This means the GOT/TOC is left with a whole lot of relative relocations which is untidy, but in itself is not a serious problem. However, static-pie on powerpc64 bombs due to a segfault caused by one of the small-model accesses before _dl_relocate_static_pie. (The very first one in rcrt1.o passing start_addresses in r8 to __libc_start_main.) So this patch makes all the toc/got accesses in assembly medium code model, and a couple of functions hidden. By itself this is not enough to give us working static-pie, but it is useful in isolation to enable better linker optimisation. There's a serious problem in libgcc too. libgcc ifuncs access the AT_HWCAP words stored in the tcb with an offset from the thread pointer (r13), but r13 isn't set at the time _dl_relocate_static_pie. A followup patch will fix that. Reviewed-by: Tulio Magno Quites Machado Filho <tuliom@linux.ibm.com> |
