-
-Usage of `ELFOSABI_LINUX`/`STB_GNU_UNIQUE`. Has also been wrong before already
-with respect to `STT_GNU_IFUNC`?

- <pinotree> youpi: not that there would be any hope in that, but id you try
- asking doko about the gcc miscompiling (wrong elf format) issue?
- <youpi> I didn't
- <youpi> I'm still investigating
- <youpi> maybe it's a binutils change actually
- <pinotree> youpi: hm, are you sure it could be binutils? after all, even
- some .o files are produced with format gnu/linux, so there's no binutils
- involved up to that point of thecompilation yet?
- <youpi> as is
- <youpi> "as", I mean
- <pinotree> i see
- <youpi> since it's so unclear, I really prefer to investigate before
- bothering doko
- <pinotree> youpi: maybe i could be wrong,
- <pinotree> in binutils, bfd/elf.c, around lines 9580
- <youpi> the faulty thing seems to be gnu_unique_object in the source .s
- file produced by g++
- <pinotree> that's what that comment (which changed wrt binutils from eg
- march) says
- <youpi> seems to concur with my comment above :)
- <pinotree> http://paste.debian.net/119542/ ‘¡û extract of diff
- <youpi> ok, that really seems the culprit
- <youpi> starting reportbug
- <pinotree> who's the fault then?
- <youpi> binutils
- <youpi> it shouldn't hardcode LINUX
- <pinotree> g++ emitting those symbols, or binutil considering them "linux"?
- <youpi> it's a GNU thing, not a Linux thing
- <pinotree> ah ok
- <youpi> it's the same dynamic linker actually
- <pinotree> youpi: http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10549
- <pinotree> see the reporter :)
- <youpi> heh
- <pinotree> youpi: see also gas/config/obj-elf.c:1725
- <pinotree> (another change related to that bug, it seems)

- <jkoenig> also I still get an "ELF file OS ABI invalid" error with binutils
- 2.21.52.20110606-2+hurd.1, is that expected?
- <youpi> tschwinge: oops, the OS ABI invalid is actually due to the file
- being marked GNU/Hurd
- <youpi> I guess the linker is simply not aware that it should accept
- GNU/Hurd
- <tschwinge> youpi: So we got to work on glibc'S ld.so to teach it aboput
- the Hurd OS ABI? (Or probably simply make that equivalent to the Linux
- one?)
- <youpi> probably simply an equivalent
- <youpi> ELFOSABI_HURD is missing from elf/elf.h, for a start...
- <youpi> linux' glibc has tests in lsdodefs.h
- <youpi> the VALID_ELF_OSABI macro
- <youpi> it's thus apparently a matter of providing an ldsodefs.h file with
- VALID_ELF_HEADER, VALID_ELF_OSABI and VALID_ELF_ABIVERSION definitions
- <youpi> (and include_next the generic one)
- <youpi> I've prepared a patch for ldsodefs.h, I'll test it
