I may have found the issue.
If I replace the __image_base__ in the assembly file by the value that I
know the linker is supplying it with, the DLL works just fine.
So I created two versions of this DLL, and compared their objdump
outputs. The main difference is an extra relocation at 14a0 :
0100144c <_pei386_runtime_relocator>:
100144c: e92d4800 push {fp, lr}
1001450: e28db004 add fp, sp, #4
1001454: e59f3038 ldr r3, [pc, #56] ; 1001494
<_pei386_runtime_relocator+0x48>
1001458: e5933000 ldr r3, [r3]
100145c: e3530000 cmp r3, #0
1001460: 1a000009 bne 100148c
<_pei386_runtime_relocator+0x40>
1001464: e59f3028 ldr r3, [pc, #40] ; 1001494
<_pei386_runtime_relocator+0x48>
1001468: e5933000 ldr r3, [r3]
100146c: e2832001 add r2, r3, #1
1001470: e59f301c ldr r3, [pc, #28] ; 1001494
<_pei386_runtime_relocator+0x48>
1001474: e5832000 str r2, [r3]
1001478: e59f0018 ldr r0, [pc, #24] ; 1001498
<_pei386_runtime_relocator+0x4c>
100147c: e59f1018 ldr r1, [pc, #24] ; 100149c
<_pei386_runtime_relocator+0x50>
1001480: e59f2018 ldr r2, [pc, #24] ; 10014a0
<_pei386_runtime_relocator+0x54>
1001484: ebffff35 bl 1001160 <do_pseudo_reloc>
1001488: ea000000 b 1001490
<_pei386_runtime_relocator+0x44>
100148c: e1a00000 nop ; (mov r0, r0)
1001490: e8bd8800 pop {fp, pc}
1001494: 0101200c tsteq r1, ip
1001498: 01013000 tsteq r1, r0
100149c: 01013000 tsteq r1, r0
10014a0: 01000000 tsteq r0, r0
Note that this contains the value of __image_base__ .
This means, I think, that Windows is choking on relocating the value of
__image_base__ itself.
Not sure how to solve this problem though. If I understand well what
do_pseudo_reloc is about, then we *need* the relocated value. Right ?
