Correct a bug when remapping textrel segments on nommu
From: Alan Davis <adavis@ti.com>
On C6X, when trying to execute a program that has a textrel DSO, it
fails to load. The telltale line in the LD_DEBUG output is:
_dl_get_ready_to_run:779: file=''; needed by './a.out'
The corresponding DT_NEEDED entry has 'libc.so.0', but here the
filename is empty. This is what is happening in
_dl_elf_shared_library():
First, map all segments according to their permissions. Text gets
initially mapped read-only.
Then, parse the dynamic information. The dynamic table is in RW but
some of the tags may point to RO. For example, DT_NEEDED points to a
string in .dynstr which is in RO. These pointers get computed
according to the loadmap from the original mapping.
Then, in response to a DT_TEXTREL tag, the RO segment gets remapped,
thereby invaliding anything that points to it, in particular certain
dynamic tags such as DT_NEEDED.
The following patch re-parses the dynamic info after the remapping so
as to re-compute any invalid pointers.
