Linking large Hexagon binaries (e.g. ASan runtime with >8 MiB of text) fails with R_HEX_B22_PCREL / R_HEX_PLT_B22_PCREL relocation overflow on calls to PLT entries, even though the thunk infrastructure exists and needsThunks is set. needsThunk() always used s.getVA() to compute the branch destination, even for PLT calls where the actual destination is the PLT entry. This meant the distance check used the wrong address and failed to create thunks when the PLT entry was out of B22_PCREL range. Fix by using s.getPltVA() when expr == R_PLT_PC. Also override getThunkSectionSpacing() so ThunkSections are pre-created at appropriate intervals for large binaries.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
