A start.o compiled from start.S with -DPIC and no -DSHARED is used by
both crt1.o and rcrt1.o. So the LoongArch static PIE patch
unintentionally introduced PC-relative addressing for main and
__libc_start_main into crt1.o.
While the latest Binutils (trunk, which will be released as 2.40)
supports the PC-relative relocs against an external function by creating
a PLT entry, the 2.39 release branch doesn't (and won't) support this.
An error is raised:
"PLT stub does not represent and symbol not defined."
So, we need the following changes:
1. Check if ld supports the PC-relative relocs against an external
function. If it's not supported, we deem static PIE unsupported.
2. Change start.S. If static PIE is supported, use PC-relative
addressing for main and __libc_start_main and rely on the linker to
create PLT entries. Otherwise, restore the old behavior (using GOT
to address these functions).
An alternative would be adding a new "static-pie-start.S", and some
custom logic into Makefile to build rcrt1.o with it. And, restore
start.S to the state before static PIE change so crt1.o won't contain
PC-relative relocs against external symbols. But I can't see any
benefit of this alternative, so I'd just keep it simple.
Tested by building glibc with the following configurations:
1. Binutils trunk + GCC trunk. Static PIE enabled. All tests
passed.
2. Binutils 2.39 branch + GCC trunk. Static PIE disabled. Tests
related to ifunc failed (it's a known issue). All other tests
passed.
3. Binutils 2.39 branch + GCC 12 branch, cross compilation with
build-many-glibcs.py from x86_64-linux-gnu. Static PIE disabled.
Build succeeded.
This directory contains the sources of the GNU C Library. See the file "version.h" for what release version you have. The GNU C Library is the standard system C library for all GNU systems, and is an important part of what makes up a GNU system. It provides the system API for all programs written in C and C-compatible languages such as C++ and Objective C; the runtime facilities of other programming languages use the C library to access the underlying operating system. In GNU/Linux systems, the C library works with the Linux kernel to implement the operating system behavior seen by user applications. In GNU/Hurd systems, it works with a microkernel and Hurd servers. The GNU C Library implements much of the POSIX.1 functionality in the GNU/Hurd system, using configurations i[4567]86-*-gnu. When working with Linux kernels, this version of the GNU C Library requires Linux kernel version 3.2 or later. Also note that the shared version of the libgcc_s library must be installed for the pthread library to work correctly. The GNU C Library supports these configurations for using Linux kernels: aarch64*-*-linux-gnu alpha*-*-linux-gnu arc*-*-linux-gnu arm-*-linux-gnueabi csky-*-linux-gnuabiv2 hppa-*-linux-gnu i[4567]86-*-linux-gnu x86_64-*-linux-gnu Can build either x86_64 or x32 ia64-*-linux-gnu loongarch64-*-linux-gnu Hardware floating point, LE only. m68k-*-linux-gnu microblaze*-*-linux-gnu mips-*-linux-gnu mips64-*-linux-gnu or1k-*-linux-gnu powerpc-*-linux-gnu Hardware or software floating point, BE only. powerpc64*-*-linux-gnu Big-endian and little-endian. s390-*-linux-gnu s390x-*-linux-gnu riscv32-*-linux-gnu riscv64-*-linux-gnu sh[34]-*-linux-gnu sparc*-*-linux-gnu sparc64*-*-linux-gnu If you are interested in doing a port, please contact the glibc maintainers; see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/ for more information. See the file INSTALL to find out how to configure, build, and install the GNU C Library. You might also consider reading the WWW pages for the C library at https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/. The GNU C Library is (almost) completely documented by the Texinfo manual found in the `manual/' subdirectory. The manual is still being updated and contains some known errors and omissions; we regret that we do not have the resources to work on the manual as much as we would like. For corrections to the manual, please file a bug in the `manual' component, following the bug-reporting instructions below. Please be sure to check the manual in the current development sources to see if your problem has already been corrected. Please see https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html for bug reporting information. We are now using the Bugzilla system to track all bug reports. This web page gives detailed information on how to report bugs properly. The GNU C Library is free software. See the file COPYING.LIB for copying conditions, and LICENSES for notices about a few contributions that require these additional notices to be distributed. License copyright years may be listed using range notation, e.g., 1996-2015, indicating that every year in the range, inclusive, is a copyrightable year that would otherwise be listed individually.
