Subject: question: i386 ld.gold reports "internal error" linking files with SHT_RELA section
Date: Tue, 30 Aug 2022 22:38:42 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <199ec63c39a4a323e93402277c1cc67f5c8216bf.camel@xry111.site> (raw)

Building SeaMonkey on i686 results:

    "/usr/bin/ld.gold: internal error in relocate_section, at ../../gold/i386.cc:3683"

i386.cc:3683 is:

    gold_assert(sh_type == elfcpp::SHT_REL);

AFAIK i386 normally use SHT_REL and x86_64 normally use SHT_RELA.  But
we've found that nasm-2.15.05 generates SHT_RELA for i386 as well.

So should SHT_RELA be allowed for i386 at all?  If "yes" we should fix
it for gold, if "no" we should fix it for nasm.
