Correct a commit e5713223cbc1 ("MIPS/BFD: For n64 hold the number of
internal relocs in `->reloc_count'") regression and change internal
relocation handling in the generic ELF BFD linker code such that, except
in the presence of R_SPARC_OLO10 relocations, a section's `reloc_count'
holds the number of internal rather than external relocations, making
the handling more consistent between GAS, which sets `->reloc_count'
with a call to `bfd_set_reloc', and LD, which sets `->reloc_count' as it
reads input sections.
The handling of dynamic relocations remains unchanged and they continue
holding the number of external relocations in `->reloc_count'; they are
also not converted to the internal form except in `elf_link_sort_relocs'
(which does not handle the general, i.e. non-n64-MIPS case of composed
relocations correctly as per the ELF gABI, though it does not seem to
matter for the targets we currently support).
The n64 MIPS backend is the only one with `int_rels_per_ext_rel' set to
non-one, and consequently the change is trivial for all the remaining
backends and targets.
bfd/
* elf-bfd.h (RELOC_AGAINST_DISCARDED_SECTION): Subtract `count'
from `reloc_count' rather than decrementing it.
* elf.c (bfd_section_from_shdr): Multiply the adjustment to
`reloc_count' by `int_rels_per_ext_rel'.
* elf32-score.c (score_elf_final_link_relocate): Do not multiply
`reloc_count' by `int_rels_per_ext_rel' for last relocation
entry determination.
(s3_bfd_score_elf_check_relocs): Likewise.
* elf32-score7.c (score_elf_final_link_relocate): Likewise.
(s7_bfd_score_elf_relocate_section): Likewise.
(s7_bfd_score_elf_check_relocs): Likewise.
* elf64-mips.c (mips_elf64_get_reloc_upper_bound): Remove
prototype and function.
(mips_elf64_slurp_one_reloc_table): Do not update `reloc_count'.
(mips_elf64_slurp_reloc_table): Assert that `reloc_count' is
triple rather than once the sum of REL and RELA relocation entry
counts.
(bfd_elf64_get_reloc_upper_bound): Remove macro.
* elflink.c (_bfd_elf_link_read_relocs): Do not multiply
`reloc_count' by `int_rels_per_ext_rel' for internal relocation
storage allocation size determination.
(elf_link_input_bfd): Multiply `.ctors' and `.dtors' section's
size by `int_rels_per_ext_rel'. Do not multiply `reloc_count'
by `int_rels_per_ext_rel' for last relocation entry
determination.
(bfd_elf_final_link): Do not multiply `reloc_count' by
`int_rels_per_ext_rel' for internal relocation storage
allocation size determination.
(init_reloc_cookie_rels): Do not multiply `reloc_count' by
`int_rels_per_ext_rel' for last relocation entry determination.
(elf_gc_smash_unused_vtentry_relocs): Likewise.

Good point.
NB I have now got to the bottom of the issue seen by Joseph and this
observation:

was indeed relevant. The thing is due to the presence of the warning the
relocation table is read by LD twice, first via this sequence of calls:
load_symbols
bfd_elf_link_add_symbols
elf_link_add_object_symbols
_bfd_elf_link_check_relocs
_bfd_elf_link_read_relocs
elf_link_read_relocs_from_section
->swap_reloca_in (mips_elf64_be_swap_reloca_in)
setting section's `->used_by_bfd->relocs', and then again:
_bfd_generic_link_add_one_symbol
warning_callback
symbol_warning
warning_find_reloc (via bfd_map_over_sections)
bfd_canonicalize_reloc
_bfd_elf_canonicalize_reloc
->slurp_reloc_table (mips_elf64_slurp_reloc_table)
setting section's `->relocation'; in both cases updating `->reloc_count',
differently -- which was the actual bug.
This also means the optimisation I mentioned in the previous e-mail, i.e.
removing any R_MIPS_NONE padding from n64 MIPS relocation triplets cannot
be done without a further preparation, possibly teaching
`_bfd_elf_canonicalize_reloc' to use `->used_by_bfd->relocs' if available,
or (perhaps better yet) giving `objdump' a way to request that
`->slurp_reloc_table' does not optimise relocations. Anyway, not for the
moment.
As previously promised I have also investigated a possibility to add an
LD test case and concluded that, given the nature of the inconsistency I
have introduced, it is not feasible -- the segfault only triggered with a
combination of factors that could change based on the host, compiler flags
used, malloc(3) implementation, etc., and during my experiments I saw LD
succeed even with a GNU warning section present and consequently
`->reloc_count' set beyond the actual relocation count.
So for the record, here's the final change I have now committed, just
with an adjustment for the explicit cast requested. Thank you all for
your input in the course of making these changes.
