[PATCH] sh: Make protected symbols local for FDPIC -shared

[PATCH] sh: Make protected symbols local for FDPIC -shared

[Fangrui Song]

From: Fangrui Song <maskray@gcc.gnu.org>

    __attribute__((visibility("protected"))) void protected_fun() {}
    void *get_protected_fun() { return protected_fun; }

links fine in the non-FDPIC mode but not in the FDPIC mode:

    R_SH_GOTOFFFUNCDESC relocation against external symbol "protected_fun"

The issue is similar to the x86 issue fixed by commit
d19a265487eda186b6977d9d15648cda9fad3298 ("x86: Make protected symbols
local for -shared").

SYMBOL_FUNCDESC_LOCAL in the R_SH_GOTOFFFUNCDESC check unnecessarily
considers protected symbols non-local.  elf32-frv.c:FRVFDPIC_SYM_LOCAL
avoids the issue by setting local_protected.  Set local_protected for sh
as well. It seems that the condition `! elf_hash_table
(INFO)->dynamic_sections_created` is redundant as `h->dynindx` should be
-1.  Let's remove the condition.

Right.
$ sh4-linux-gnu-gcc -fPIC -mfdpic -c fundesc.c
$ ld/ld-new -m shlelf_fd -shared -o fundesc.so fundesc.o
ld/ld-new: fundesc.o(.text+0x24): R_SH_GOTOFFFUNCDESC relocation against external symbol "protected_fun"
ld/ld-new: final link failed

Are you sure the dynamic_sections_created test is redundant?
_bfd_elf_symbol_refs_local_p returns false for undefined syms.  BTW, I
think it is better to write SYMBOL_CALLS_LOCAL rather than expanding
to _bfd_elf_symbol_refs_local_p.  The name conveys meaning.

This isn't an ack or a nack on the patch, I'll leave that to Alexandre
since I really don't know enough about the sh fdpic ABI without
spending quite a lot of time checking, but I suspect the patch isn't
complete due to code like

	    else if (SYMBOL_CALLS_LOCAL (info, h)
		     && ! SYMBOL_FUNCDESC_LOCAL (info, h))
	      {
		/* If the symbol needs a non-local function descriptor
		   but binds locally (i.e., its visibility is
		   protected), emit a dynamic relocation decayed to
		   section+offset.  This is an optimization; the dynamic
		   linker would resolve our function descriptor request
		   to our copy of the function anyway.  */
		dynindx = elf_section_data (h->root.u.def.section
					    ->output_section)->dynindx;
		relocation += h->root.u.def.section->output_offset
		  + h->root.u.def.value;
	      }

That would be an "else if (0)" after your patch.
