#11340: linker_unload test fails on ARM -------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Reporter: bgamari | Owner: Type: bug | Status: patch Priority: normal | Milestone: 8.0.1 Component: Compiler | Version: 7.10.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Operating System: Unknown/Multiple | Architecture: arm Type of failure: Runtime crash | Test Case: Blocked By: | Blocking: Related Tickets: | Differential Rev(s): Phab:D1728 Wiki Page: | -------------------------------------+---------------------------------- Comment (by Ben Gamari ): In [changeset:"d159a51bb0f26aa232432987e88499109002b3f7/ghc" d159a51b/ghc]: {{{ #!CommitTicketReference repository="ghc" revision="d159a51bb0f26aa232432987e88499109002b3f7" Linker: ARM: Refactor relocation handling This refactors handling of R_ARM_CALL, R_ARM_JUMP24, R_ARM_MOVW_NC, and R_ARM_MOVT relocations to follow the LLVM LLD implementation. The "ELF for ARM" specification is (like most documents of this type, sadly) a bit vague in some areas, so it seems safest to follow the behavior of a trusted implementation like LLD, which is remarkable in its clarity.. Moreover, we now throw a proper error message when a jump to a symbol extra is out of range. This is great improvement over the previous behavior, which ended in a segfault. See #11340.
