The AArch64 TLSDESC to IE relaxation code uses a bit mask intended to
ensure that destination register in a relaxed ldr instruction is
always X0. The mask has an off by one error resulting in the most
significant bit of the destination register being retained in the
relaxed instruction. The issue generally appears when the compiler
emits TLS accesses code under high register pressure resulting in a
broken code sequence.
I got the ppc476 workaround wrong. bctr (and bctrl) as the last
instruction in a page can hit the icache bug if the preceding mtctr
insn is close by, and the destination is in the first few instructions
on the next page. This scenario can occur with code generated by gcc
to implement switch statements, or in code generated to call by
function pointer.
To prevent the bctr problem it is also necessary to remove other
instructions that otherwise would be safe.

The linker script documentation does not mention the optional comma
that may follow an output section command or an overlay command.
In some cases, where a fill expression is used, and the next
output section command begins with an operator (e.g., "/DISCARD/"),
the comma may be required to separate the two commands.
Currently, GNU ld doesn't require the comma, but gold does.

ELFv2 needs to create plt entries in a non-PIC executable for an
address reference to a function defined in a shared object. It's
possible that an object file has no features that distinguish it as
ELFv1 or ELFv2, eg. an object only containing data. Such files need
to be handled like those that are known to be ELFv2.
However, this unnecessarily creates plt entries for the analogous
ELFv1 case, so arrange to set output abi version earlier, and use the
output abi version to further distinguish ambiguous input files.

The current code subtracts the size of the output section containing

Intel MPX introduces 4 bound registers, which will be used for parameter
passing in x86-64. Bound registers are cleared by branch instructions.
Branch instructions with BND prefix will keep bound register contents.
This leads to 2 requirements to 64-bit MPX run-time:
1. Dynamic linker (ld.so) should save and restore bound registers during
symbol lookup.
2. Change the current 16-byte PLT0:
ff 35 08 00 00 00 pushq GOT+8(%rip)
ff 25 00 10 00 jmpq *GOT+16(%rip)
0f 1f 40 00 nopl 0x0(%rax)
and 16-byte PLT1:
ff 25 00 00 00 00 jmpq *name@GOTPCREL(%rip)
68 00 00 00 00 pushq $index
e9 00 00 00 00 jmpq PLT0
which clear bound registers, to preserve bound registers.
We use 2 new relocations:
to mark branch instructions with BND prefix.
When linker sees any R_X86_64_PC32_BND or R_X86_64_PLT32_BND relocations,
it switches to a different PLT0:
ff 35 08 00 00 00 pushq GOT+8(%rip)
f2 ff 25 00 10 00 bnd jmpq *GOT+16(%rip)
0f 1f 00 nopl (%rax)
to preserve bound registers for symbol lookup and it also creates an
external PLT section, .pl.bnd. Linker will create a BND PLT1 entry
in .plt:
68 00 00 00 00 pushq $index
f2 e9 00 00 00 00 bnd jmpq PLT0
0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0(%rax,%rax,1)
and a 8-byte BND PLT entry in .plt.bnd:
f2 ff 25 00 00 00 00 bnd jmpq *name@GOTPCREL(%rip)
90 nop
Otherwise, linker will create a legacy PLT1 entry in .plt:
68 00 00 00 00 pushq $index
e9 00 00 00 00 jmpq PLT0
66 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopw 0(%rax,%rax,1)
and a 8-byte legacy PLT in .plt.bnd:
ff 25 00 00 00 00 jmpq *name@GOTPCREL(%rip)
66 90 xchg %ax,%ax
The initial value of the GOT entry for "name" will be set to the the
"pushq" instruction in the corresponding entry in .plt. Linker will
resolve reference of symbol "name" to the entry in the second PLT,
.plt.bnd.
Prelink stores the offset of pushq of PLT1 (plt_base + 0x10) in GOT[1]
and GOT[1] is stored in GOT[3]. We can undo prelink in GOT by computing
the corresponding the pushq offset with
GOT[1] + (GOT offset - &GOT[3]) * 2
Since for each entry in .plt except for PLT0 we create a 8-byte entry in
.plt.bnd, there is extra 8-byte per PLT symbol.
We also investigated the 16-byte entry for .plt.bnd. We compared the
8-byte entry vs the the 16-byte entry for .plt.bnd on Sandy Bridge.
There are no performance differences in SPEC CPU 2000/2006 as well as
micro benchmarks.
Pros:
No change to undo prelink in dynamic linker.
Only 8-byte memory overhead for each PLT symbol.
Cons:
Extra .plt.bnd section is needed.
Extra 8 byte for legacy branches to PLT.
GDB is unware of the new layout of .plt and .plt.bnd.
