--- Comment #1 from cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org <cvs-commit at gcc dot gnu.org> --- The master branch has been updated by Alan Modra <amo...@sourceware.org>: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;h=5474d94f03aedba2f832006dc7d680cc15792a7b commit 5474d94f03aedba2f832006dc7d680cc15792a7b Author: Alan Modra <amo...@gmail.com> Date: Mon Dec 26 00:30:45 2016 +1030 dynrelro section for read-only dynamic symbols copied into executable Variables defined in shared libraries are copied into an executable's .bss section when code in the executable is non-PIC and thus would require dynamic text relocations to access the variable directly in the shared library. Recent x86 toolchains also copy variables into the executable to gain a small speed improvement. The problem is that if the variable was originally read-only, the copy in .bss is writable, potentially opening a security hole. This patch cures that problem by putting the copy in a section that becomes read-only after ld.so relocation, provided -z relro is in force. The patch also fixes a microblaze linker segfault on attempting to use dynamic bss variables. bfd/ PR ld/20995 * elf-bfd.h (struct elf_link_hash_table): Add sdynrelro and sreldynrelro.
