  From: Sergei Trofimovich <slyfox@gentoo.org>

gcc-10 enabled -fno-common by default. This caused glibc link failure:

```
$ ia64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -pipe -O2 -nostdlib -nostartfiles \
    -static -o .../elf/sln ...
libc.a(dl-support.o): in function `setup_vdso':
glibc-2.31/elf/setup-vdso.h:116:(.text+0x1322):
    relocation truncated to fit: GPREL22 against `.text'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
```

The difference between gcc-9 and gcc-10 is the way relocation is
generated for ia64-specific symbol '_dl_sysinfo_break', defined as:

```c
  32 #ifndef __ASSEMBLER__
  33 /* Don't declare this as a function---we want it's entry-point, not
  34    it's function descriptor... */
  35 extern int _dl_sysinfo_break attribute_hidden;
  36 # define DL_SYSINFO_DEFAULT ((uintptr_t) &_dl_sysinfo_break)
  37 # define DL_SYSINFO_IMPLEMENTATION              \
  38   asm (".text\n\t"                              \
  39        ".hidden _dl_sysinfo_break\n\t"          \
  40        ".proc _dl_sysinfo_break\n\t"            \
```

Note: it's declared as ".sdata" (defined nearby GOT) but assumed
to be defined in ".text" as it's really a direct function address.

As a result generated relocation changed from:

from `GPREL64I`:

```
    1390:       05 00 84 1e 98 11       [MLX]       st8 [r15]=r33
                        1391: GPREL64I  .text
    1396:       00 00 00 00 00 e0                   movl r15=0x0;;
    139c:       01 00 00 60
    13a0:       0b 78 04 1e 00 20       [MMI]       add r15=r1,r15;;
```

to `GPREL22`:

```
      if (GLRO(dl_sysinfo) == DL_SYSINFO_DEFAULT)

    1320:       0b 80 00 1c 18 10       [MMI]       ld8 r16=[r14];;
                        1322: GPREL22   .text
    1326:       00 08 3d 30 23 e0                   st8 [r15]=r33
    132c:       01 08 00 90                         addl r15=0,r1;;
```

This change explicitly declares symbol to be in ".text" section.
That allows gcc to generate far relocations.

Regression tested on glibc-master and gcc-10.1.0 on rx3600.

I can't reproduce it with master (b6ad64b907ab00) with GCC 10.1.1 20200520.
(built using build-many-glibcs.py). I tried to explicit use -fno-common on
CFLAGS. Are you sing a non default compiler option?

The rationale is sound, but the trick to define a function pointer a 
data variable on text sections seems hacky and fragile. I still think
it could be a fix, but I think we should refactor and simplify
the over-enginnering of NEED_DL_SYSINFO/USE_DL_SYSINFO.

My apologies. Missed your email.

The CFLAGS options should be default. Full command is:

Might be an effect of default --enable-default-pie --enable-default-ssp.
Or an effect of applied GCC patch: https://gcc.gnu.org/PR84553

I can try to extract smaller .c example that generates unlinkable
GPREL22 against cross-section symbols if it's useful.

Tl;DR: 

I think I managed to write small reproducer, and I think it illustrates
that my fix is not effective and still breaks in some setups :(

I hope that helps.

Detailed example:

$ cat a.c
// code reference, avoids function descriptor
#ifdef USE_TEXT
extern int asm_f __attribute__((visibility("hidden"))) __attribute__((section(".text")));
#else
extern int asm_f __attribute__((visibility("hidden")));
#endif

long asm_f_ref;

asm (
".text\n\t" \
   ".hidden asm_f\n\t"
   ".proc asm_f\n\t"
"asm_f:\n\t"
   ".prologue\n\t"
   ".body\n\t"
   "br.ret.sptk.many b0;\n\t"
   ".endp asm_f\n\t"
".previous"
);

void _start() {
    asm_f_ref = (unsigned long)&asm_f;
}

$ cat mk.bash
#!/bin/bash

In fact I think your testcase has a small typo below ;)

I think it should be USE_TEXT instead.

So it does seem that using the __attribute__((section(".text"))) does help ia64
in this case.  Due the current status I think it should be a better and
simpler fix.

The alternative would be remove the _dl_sysinfo_break and rewrite the syscall
mechanism (in both ASM pre-processor and INTERNAL_SYSCALL macros) to check
if the _dl_sysinfo is set (meaning a vDSO is present) and issuing the syscall
with brk if not.  It will most likely increase the code size and add some
latency.

I agree.

I volunteer to convert to asm call when it breaks next time :)
