ld: Allow R_X86_64_GOTPCREL for call *__tls_get_addr@GOTPCREL(%rip)
_Thread_local int a; int main() { return a; } % gcc -fno-plt -fpic a.c -fuse-ld=bfd -Wa,-mrelax-relocations=no /usr/bin/ld.bfd: /tmp/ccSSBgrg.o: TLS transition from R_X86_64_TLSGD to R_X86_64_GOTTPOFF against `a' at 0xd in section `.text' failed /usr/bin/ld.bfd: failed to set dynamic section sizes: bad value collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status This commit fixes the issue. There is an argument that the -fno-plt TLS sequence was added after R_X86_64_GOTPCRELX was required for call, so R_X86_64_GOTPCREL was intended to be unsupported. Unfortunately this standpoint has caused interop difficulty: some projects specify -mrelax-relocations=no to build relocatable object files compatible with older linkers (e.g. https://github.com/IHaskell/IHaskell/issues/636) or do so by accident (e.g. https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/106511 not addressed as of today). Many uses have not been cleaned up in practice, and compiling with -fno-plt will lead to the `TLS transition from R_X86_64_TLSGD ...` error which is hard to reason about. There is another argument which may be weaker but relevant to the necessity of -mrelax-relocations=no: HWAddressSanitizer x86-64 will likely need some assembler support to disable relaxation. Without the support and if the compiler needs to support many gas version, the simplest solution would be to use -Wa,-mrelax-relocations=no. PR ld/24784 * bfd/elf64-x86-64.c (elf_x86_64_check_tls_transition): Allow R_X86_64_GOTPCREL.
