  To: binutils; +Cc: oliva

Linker will resolve an undefined symbol only if it is referenced by
relocation.  Unreferenced weak undefined symbols serve no purpose.
Weak undefined symbols appear in the dynamic symbol table only when they
are referenced by dynamic relocation.  Mark symbols with relocation and
strip undefined weak symbols if they don't have relocation and aren't
in the dynamic symbol table.

bfd/

	PR ld/31652
	* elf-bfd.h (elf_link_hash_entry): Add has_reloc.
	* elf-vxworks.c (elf_vxworks_emit_relocs): Set has_reloc.
	* elflink.c (_bfd_elf_link_output_relocs): Likewise.
	(elf_link_output_extsym): Strip undefined weak symbols if they
	don't have relocation and aren't in the dynamic symbol table.

ld/

	PR ld/31652
	* testsuite/ld-elf/elf.exp: Run undefweak tests.
	* testsuite/ld-elf/undefweak-1.rd: New file.
	* testsuite/ld-elf/undefweak-1a.s: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-elf/undefweak-1b.s: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-x86-64/weakundef-1.nd: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-x86-64/weakundef-1a.s: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-x86-64/weakundef-1b.s: Likewise.
	* testsuite/ld-x86-64/x86-64.exp: Run undefweak tests.
