* x86/vdso: Improve the fake section headersAndy Lutomirski2014-06-191-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fully stripping the vDSO has other unfortunate side effects: - binutils is unable to find ELF notes without a SHT_NOTE section. - Even elfutils has trouble: it can find ELF notes without a section table at all, but if a section table is present, it won't look for PT_NOTE. - gdb wants section names to match between stripped DSOs and their symbols; otherwise it will corrupt symbol addresses. We're also breaking the rules: section 0 is supposed to be SHT_NULL. Fix these problems by building a better fake section table. While we're at it, we might as well let buggy Go versions keep working well by giving the SHT_DYNSYM entry the correct size. This is a bit unfortunate: it adds quite a bit of size to the vdso image. If/when binutils improves and the improved versions become widespread, it would be worth considering dropping most of this.

* x32: Drop non-__vdso weak symbols from the x32 VDSOH. Peter Anvin2012-02-221-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | Drop the legacy weak symbols that don't carry the __vdso prefix from the x32 VDSO. This is a new ABI and we don't need to support that legacy; the actual libc will export the proper symbols.

* x32: Add x32 VDSO supportH. J. Lu2012-02-201-0/+32
Add support for the x32 VDSO. The x32 VDSO takes advantage of the similarity between the x86-64 and the x32 ABIs to contain the same content, only the container is different, as the x32 VDSO obviously is an x32 shared object. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
