From 48e30f5238c70e738f44474d595c476ef4e4ec38 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H.J. Lu" Date: Fri, 10 Aug 2018 12:21:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Always clear h->verinfo.verdef when overriding a dynamic definition When linker defines a symbol to override a dynamic definition, it should always clear h->verinfo.verdef so that the symbol won't be associated with the version information from the dynamic object. This happened to the symbol "_edata" when creating an unversioned dynamic object linking against: 1. libKF5ConfigCore.so.5.49.0 2. libKF5CoreAddons.so.5.49.0 3. libKF5I18n.so.5.49.0 4. libKF5DBusAddons.so.5.49.0 5. libQt5Xml.so.5.11.1 6. libQt5DBus.so.5.11.1 7. libQt5Core.so.5.11.1 Among them libQt5Xml.so.5.11.1 299: 000000000003e000 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 18 _edata@@Qt_5 libQt5DBus.so.5.11.1 597: 0000000000092018 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 18 _edata@@Qt_5 libQt5Core.so.5.11.1 2292: 00000000004df640 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 21 _edata@Qt_5 2293: 00000000004df640 0 NOTYPE GLOBAL DEFAULT 21 _edata@Qt_5 The problem is triggered by 2 duplicated entries of _edata@Qt_5 in libQt5Core.so.5.11.1 which was created by gold. Before this commit, ld created the dynamic object with "_edata" in its dynamic symbol table which was linker defined and associated with the version information from libQt5Core.so.5.11.1. The code in question was there when the binutils source was imported to sourceware.org. When such a dynamic object was used later, we got: /usr/bin/ld: bin/libKF5Service.so.5.49.0: _edata: invalid version 21 (max 0) /usr/bin/ld: bin/libKF5Service.so.5.49.0: error adding symbols: bad value Tested with many ELF targets.
