Re: Support for ELF's STT_COMMON symbol type


Hi H.J.

Yes, the tests in ld-shared cover this area quite nicely. Running the linker testsuites for a native linker configured and built with --enable-elf-stt-common results in there failures:

  FAIL: Run with libdl2a.so
  FAIL: Run with libdl2b.so
  FAIL: Run with libdl2c.so
  FAIL: Run with libdl4a.so
  FAIL: Run with libdl4b.so
  FAIL: Run with libdl4c.so
  FAIL: Run with libdl4d.so
  FAIL: Run with libdl4e.so
  FAIL: Run with libdl4f.so
  FAIL: Run with libdata1.so

What I have not done however is built a fixed loader and rerun these tests to make sure that they pass.

I have now run these tests with a fixed loader (and --enable-elf-stt-common enabled) and they all passed.


Cheers
