An R_*_IRELATIVE represents the address of a STT_GNU_IFUNC symbol
(redirected at runtime) which is non-preemptable and is not associated
with a canonical PLT (associated with a symbol with a section index of
SHN_UNDEF but a non-zero st_value).
.rel[a].plt [DT_JMPREL, DT_JMPREL+DT_JMPRELSZ) contains relocations that
can be lazily resolved. R_*_IRELATIVE are always eagerly resolved, so
conceptually they do not belong to .rela.plt. "iplt" is mostly a misnomer.
glibc powerpc and powerpc64 do not resolve R_*_IRELATIVE if they are in .rela.plt.
// a.o - synthesized PLT call stub has an R_*_IRELATIVE
void ifunc(); int main() { ifunc(); }
// b.o
static void real() {}
asm (".type ifunc, %gnu_indirect_function");
void *ifunc() { return ℜ }
The lld-linked executable crashes. ld.bfd places R_*_IRELATIVE in
.rela.dyn and the executable works.
glibc i386, x86_64, and aarch64 have logic
(glibc/sysdeps/*/dl-machine.h:elf_machine_lazy_rel) to eagerly resolve
R_*_IRELATIVE in .rel[a].plt so the lld-linked executable works.
Move R_*_IRELATIVE from .rel[a].plt to .rel[a].dyn to fix the crashes on
glibc powerpc/powerpc64. This also helps simplifying ifunc
implementation in FreeBSD rtld-elf powerpc64.
If --pack-dyn-relocs=android[+relr] is specified, the Android packed
dynamic relocation format is used for .rela.dyn. We cannot name
in.relaIplt ".rela.dyn" because the output section will have mixed
formats. This can be improved in the future.

This improves readability and the behavior is consistent with GNU objdump.
The new test test/tools/llvm-objdump/X86/disassemble-section-name.s
checks we print newlines before and after "Disassembly of section ...:"

Also change some options that have different semantics (cause confusion) in llvm-readelf mode:
-s => -S
-t => --symbols
-sd => --section-data
llvm-svn: 359651
Old: PT_LOAD(.data | PT_GNU_RELRO(.data.rel.ro .bss.rel.ro) | .bss)
New: PT_LOAD(PT_GNU_RELRO(.data.rel.ro .bss.rel.ro) | .data .bss)
The placement of | indicates page alignment caused by PT_GNU_RELRO. The
new layout has simpler rules and saves space for many cases.
Old size: roundup(.data) + roundup(.data.rel.ro)
New size: roundup(.data.rel.ro + .bss.rel.ro) + .data
Other advantages:
* At runtime the 3 memory mappings decrease to 2.
* start(PT_TLS) = start(PT_GNU_RELRO) = start(RW PT_LOAD). This
simplifies binary manipulation tools.
GNU strip before 2.31 discards PT_GNU_RELRO if its
address is not equal to the start of its associated PT_LOAD.
This has been fixed by https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;h=f2731e0c374e5323ce4cdae2bcc7b7fe22da1a6f
But with this change, we will be compatible with GNU strip before 2.31
* Before, .got.plt (non-relro by default) was placed before .got (relro
by default), which made it impossible to have _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_
(start of .got.plt on x86-64) equal to the end of .got (R_GOT*_FROM_END)
(https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36555). With the new ordering, we
can improve on this regard if we'd like to.

Its PR34712,
GNU linkers recently changed default values to "both" of "sysv".
Patch do the same for all targets except MIPS, where .gnu.hash
section is not yet supported.

This is in preparation for my next change, which will introduce a relro
nobits section. That requires that relro sections appear at the end of the
progbits part of the r/w segment so that the relro nobits section can appear
contiguously.
Because of the amount of churn required in the test suite, I'm making this
change separately.
llvm-svn: 291523
This change introduces new synthetic sections IpltSection, IgotPltSection
that represent the ifunc entries that would previously have been put in
the PltSection and the GotPltSection. The separation makes sure that
the R_*_IRELATIVE relocations are placed after the non R_*_IRELATIVE
relocations, which permits ifunc resolvers to know that the .got.plt
slots will be initialized prior to the resolver being called.
A secondary benefit is that for ARM we can move the IgotPltSection and its
dynamic relocations to the .got and .rel.dyn as the ARM glibc expects all
the R_*_IRELATIVE relocations to be in the .rel.dyn
