ppc*_elf_tls_optimize decrements the PLT refcount for __tls_get_addr
when a GD or LD sequence can be optimized. Without tls marker relocs
this must be done when processing the argument setup relocations.
With marker relocs it's better done when processing the marker reloc.
But don't count them both ways.
Seen as "unresolvable R_PPC_REL24 relocation against symbol
`__tls_get_addr_opt'" (and other branch relocs).

with non-local symbol. Don't double count __tls_get_addr calls

relocations.

1) GOT entries generated for any of the GOT TLS relocations don't need
dynamic relocations for locally defined symbols in PIEs. In the case
of a tls_index doubleword, the dtpmod entry is known to be 1, and the
dtprel entry is also known at link time and relative. Similarly,
dtprel and tprel words are known at link time and relative. (GOT
entries for other than TLS symbols are not relative and thus need
dynamic relocations in PIEs.)
2) Local dynamic TLS code is really only meant for accesses local to
the current binary. There was a cheapskate test for this before using
the common tlsld_got slot, but the test wasn't exactly correct and
might confuse anyone looking at the code. The proper test,
SYMBOL_REFERENCES_LOCAL isn't so expensive that it should be avoided.
3) The same cheap test for local syms when optimising TLS sequences
should be SYMBOL_REFERENCES_LOCAL too.

Dynamic relocs are only needed in an executable for TLS symbols if
those are defined in an external module and even then TLS access
can be relaxed to use IE model instead of GD.
Several bfd_link_pic checks are turned into bfd_link_dll checks
to fix TLS handling in PIE, for the same fix some other targets
used !bfd_link_executable checks, but that includes relocatable
objects so dll seems safer (in most cases either should work, since
dynamic relocations are not applied in relocatable objects).

This is quite complicated because the CTF section's contents depend on
the final contents of the symtab and strtab, because it has two sections
whose contents are shuffled to be in 1:1 correspondence with the symtab,
and an internal strtab that gets deduplicated against the ELF strtab
(with offsets adjusted to point into the ELF strtab instead). It is
also compressed if large enough, so its size depends on its contents!
So we cannot construct it as early as most sections: we cannot even
*begin* construction until after the symtab and strtab are finalized.
Thankfully there is already one section treated similarly: compressed
debugging sections: the only differences are that compressed debugging
sections have extra handling to deal with their changing name if
compressed (CTF sections are always called ".ctf" for now, though we
have reserved ".ctf.*" against future use), and that compressed
debugging sections have previously-uncompressed content which has to be
stashed away for later compression, while CTF sections have no content
at all until we generate it (very late).
BFD also cannot do the link itself: libctf knows how to do it, and BFD
cannot call libctf directly because libctf already depends on bfd for
file I/O. So we have to use a pair of callbacks, one, examine_strtab,
which allows a caller to examine the symtab and strtab after
finalization (called from elf_link_swap_symbols_out(), right before the
symtabs are written, and after the strtab has been finalized), and one
which actually does the emission (called emit_ctf simply because it is
grouped with a bunch of section-specific late-emission function calls at
the bottom of bfd_elf_final_link, and a section-specific name seems best
for that). emit_ctf is actually called *twice*: once from lang_process
if the emulation suggests that this bfd target does not examine the
symtab or strtab, and once via a bfd callback if it does. (This means
that non-ELF targets still get CTF emitted, even though the late CTF
emission stage is never called for them).

The CTF linking process wants to deduplicate the CTF strtab against the
ELF strtab, for which it needs to know the number of strings in the
strtab and it needs to be able to extract them one by one.
The BFD strtab functions only support returning the
size-or-section-length of the strtab (with _bfd_elf_strtab_size)
and returning the offset (but not string!) and decrementing the refcount
at the same time.
So add new functions _bfd_elf_strtab_len (that just returns the length
in strings of the strtab, never the section size) and bfd_elf_strtab_str
(which returns the string at a given strtab index, and its offset,
without touching the refcount).
It is probably a mistake to use _bfd_elf_strtab_str in particular before
_bfd_elf_strtab_finalize is called, and will not produce useful output
if you do so.
v5: fix tabdamage.

* elf-strtab.c (_bfd_elf_strtab_len): New.
(_bfd_elf_strtab_str): Likewise.
* bfd-elf.h: Declare them.
The code in ctf_bfdopen_ctfsect (which is the ultimate place where you
end up if you use ctf_open to open a CTF file and pull in the ELF string
and symbol tables) was written before it was possible to actually test
it, since the linker was not written. Now it is, it turns out that the
previous code was completely nonfunctional: it assumed that you could
load the symbol table via bfd_section_from_elf_index (...,elf_onesymtab())
and the string table via bfd_section_from_elf_index on the sh_link.
Unfortunately BFD loads neither of these sections in the conventional
fashion it uses for most others: the symbol table is immediately
converted into internal form (which is useless for our purposes, since
we also have to work in the absence of BFD for readelf, etc) and the
string table is loaded specially via bfd_elf_get_str_section which is
private to bfd/elf.c.
So make this function public, export it in elf-bfd.h, and use it from
libctf, which does something similar to what bfd_elf_sym_name and
bfd_elf_string_from_elf_section do. Similarly, load the symbol table
manually using bfd_elf_get_elf_syms and throw away the internal form
it generates for us (we never use it).
BFD allocates the strtab for us via bfd_alloc, so we can leave BFD to
deallocate it: we allocate the symbol table ourselves before calling
bfd_elf_get_elf_syms, so we still have to free it.
Also change the rules around what you are allowed to provide: It is
useful to provide a string section but no symbol table, because CTF
sections can legitimately have no function info or data object sections
while relying on the ELF strtab for some of their strings. So allow
that combination.
v4: adjust to upstream changes. ctf_bfdopen_ctfsect's first parameter
is potentially unused again (if BFD is not in use for this link
due to not supporting an ELF target).

In check_relocs, bfd_link_pic true means ld is producing a shared
library or a position independent executable. !bfd_link_pic means a
fixed position (ie. static) executable since the relocatable linking
case is excluded. So it is appropriate to continue using bfd_link_pic
when testing whether non-pcrelative relocations should be dynamic, and
!bfd_link_pic for the special case of ifunc in static executables.
However, -Bsymbolic shouldn't affect PIEs (they are executables so
none of their symbols should be overridden) and PIEs can support copy
relocations, thus bfd_link_executable should be used in those cases
rather than bfd_link_pic.
I've also removed the test of ELIMINATE_COPY_RELOCS in check_relocs.
We can sort out what to do regarding copy relocs later, which allows
the code in check_relocs to be simplified.

Some versions of clang apparently generate non-PIC on powerpc64le to
access common symbols. Since a common symbol and a strong definition
with the same name should resolve to the strong definition we have the

PC-relative relocs typically use the addend in adjusting what they are
relative to. For example:
bcl 20,31,1f
1: mflr 12
addi 12,12,xxx-1b
generates "R_PPC64_REL16 xxx+0x4" for the addi (when little-endian).
The addend reflects the fact that you want the offset relative to the
previous insn not the current one in this case.
So the question is, will we ever want to do something like that for an
instruction using R_PPC64_GOT_PCREL34? I thought so at the time I
first implemented support in ld but at the time I think the hardware
was possibly going to support pcrel+offset+reg addressing. In which
case you might want something like:
load_big_offset_into_r2
pld 3,sym-big_offset@got@pcrel(2)
which would be a way of supporting more than 8G offsets from code to
the GOT. We could do the same with
load_big_offset_into_r2
pla 9,sym-big_offset@got@pcrel
ldx 3,9,2
However, this is really a poor version of TOC-pointer relative code.
So let's go with an addend on R_PPC64_GOT_PCREL34 meaning that
sym+addend should be put in a GOT entry, and the relocation calculate
the pc-relative offset to that GOT entry.
Note that this is an extension to the ABI, which says (by the
expression given for GOT relocs) that non-zero addends on GOT and PLT
relocs are ignored. This is true for all GOT/PLT relocs, not just the
pcrel ones.
* elf64-ppc.c (ppc64_elf_check_relocs): Interpret an addend in
GOT_PCREL and PLT_PCREL relocs as affecting the value stored
in the GOT/PLT entry rather than affecting the offset to that
GOI/PLT entry.
(ppc64_elf_edit_toc, ppc64_elf_relocate_section): Likewise.
The loads and stores handled in the second instruction of a sequence
marked by R_PPC64_PCREL_OPT may be a prefix instruction. For example:
pld ra,symbol@got@pcrel
0:
pld rt,off(ra)
.reloc 0b-8,R_PPC64_PCREL_OPT,(.-8)-(0b-8)
can be optimised to
pld rt,symbol+off@pcrel
pnop
* elf64-ppc.c (xlate_pcrel_opt): Handle prefix loads and stores
in second instruction.
(ppc64_elf_relocate_section): Likewise.
