[PATCH][ARM] weak undef references with PLT in ARM mode

- Subject: [PATCH][ARM] weak undef references with PLT in ARM mode
Hello,
Following a discussion on another topic, I have identified a bug when
there is an undefweak reference from ARM code: it is turned into a jump
to the next instruction, even when a PLT entry will be created (see
http://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2009-04/msg00073.html).
Here is a patch to fix this.
Christophe.
2009-04-03 Christophe Lyon <christophe.lyon@st.com>
bfd/
* elf32-arm.c (elf32_arm_final_link_relocate): Don't convert ARM
branch to an undef weak symbol into a jump to next instruction if
a PLT entry will be created.
testsuite/
* ld-arm/arm-elf.exp: Add 1 more test to check undef weak
reference with PLT in ARM mode.
* ld-arm/thumb2-bl-undefweak1.d, ld-arm/thumb2-bl-undefweak1.s:
New files.
