objcopy: add new sections also when there is no .shstrtab Previously objcopy (elfcopy) --add-sections inserted new sections before .shstrtab, but omitted them if there was no .shstrtab. Now, after processing existing sections add new sections if they were not yet added.

elfcopy: Handle multiple data descriptors properly. The code clearly meant to resize the buffer in the case where a section was backed by multiple data descriptors. In practice this shouldn't have been a problem since libelf would return a single data descriptor for each section in a newly opened file.

elfcopy/strip: Ensure sections have required alignment on output Object files may specify insufficient alignment on certain sections, for example due to a bug in NASM[1]. When we detect that case in elfcopy or strip, emit a warning and increase the alignment to the minimum required. The NASM bug was fixed in 2015[2], but we might as well have this fixup (and warning) in elfcopy in case we encounter such a file for any other reason. This might be reworked somewhat upstream - see ELF Tool Chain ticket 485[3].

elfcopy: Clear errors after fetching the shstrtab index. Otherwise a future call to elf_errno() will return a non-zero value. update_shdr(), for example, treats any errors associated with the ELF descriptor as fatal. Clear the error per the first example in elf_errmsg.3. Convert to elf_getshdrstrndx() while here since elf_getshstrndx() is apparently deprecated.

elfcopy: Use libelftc's string table routines to build .shstrtab. This replaces some hand-rolled routines and is substantially faster since libelftc uses a hash table for lookups and insertions, whereas elfcopy would perform a linear scan of the table.

objcopy: restore behaviour required by GCC's build In r339350 filter_reloc() was removed, to fix the case of stripping statically linked binaries with relocations (which may come from ifunc use, for example). As a side effect this changed the behaviour when stripping object files - the output was broken both before and after r339350, in different ways. Unfortunately GCC's build process relies on the previous behaviour, so: - Revert r339350, restoring filter_reloc(). - Fix an unitialized variable use (commited as r3638 in ELF Tool Chain). - Change filter_reloc() to omit relocations referencing removed symbols, while retaining relocations with no symbol reference. - Retain the entire relocation section if it references the dynamic symbol table (fix from kaiw in D17596).

elfcopy: delete filter_reloc, it is broken and unnecessary elfcopy contained logic to filter individual relocations in STRIP_ALL mode. However, this is not valid; relocations emitted by the linker are required, unless they apply to an entire section being removed (which is handled by other logic in elfcopy). Note that filter_reloc was also buggy: for RELA relocation sections it operated on uninitialized rel.r_info resulting in invalid operation. The logic most likely needs to be inverted: instead of removing relocations because their associated symbols are being removed, we must keep symbols referenced by relocations. That said, in practice we do not encounter this code path today: objects being stripped are either dynamically linked binaries which retain .dynsym, or static binaries with no relocations. Just remove filter_reloc. This fixes certain cases including statically linked binaries containing ifuncs. Stripping binaries with relocations referencing removed symbols was already broken, and after this change may still be broken in a different way.

elfcopy: fix symbol table handling when sections come after symtab/strtab Fix a symbol table handling bug in elfcopy: elfcopy puts .symtab, .strtab and .shstrtab sections in the end of the output object. If the input objects have more sections after any of these 3 sections, the section table will be reordered, and in that case the section symbols should be regenerated for relocations. The bug is triggered since newer clang puts .strtab section in the beginning of the object produced. Ticket: #525 Reported by: royger Obtained from: ELF Tool Chain r3443

elfcopy: fail if debug link target is empty An empty debug link target previously returned a confusing and incorrect error like "objcopy: fread failed: No error: 0". Now, return an explicit error. GNU objcopy allows an empty file as the debug link target. However, that case is nonsensical so diverging from GNU behaviour is fine.
