| armhf-64k-alignment.diff | The upstream binutils commit below reduced the section alignment of armhf executables (including shared libraries) from 64k to 4k, on the basis that the additional bloat is not justified, given that arm64 hosts running 64k pagesize kernels with armhf user space are not used in practice. However, the situation is slightly different today on Debian, where a 16k pagesize kernel is provided that enables compat support, and is therefore able to execute armhf user space. The only impediment is the fact that armhf binaries are no longer compatible with this, due to the change below. To accommodate this use case, revert the patch. This makes the generated executables compatible with compat mode on arm64 systems running 16k kernels. |

| gold-package-metadata.diff | [PATCH RESEND] gold: Support percent-encoded JSON in --package-metadata Specifying the compiler flag `-Wl,--package-metadata=<JSON>` will not work in case the JSON contains a comma, because compiler drivers eat commas. Example: ``` $ echo "void main() { }" > test.c $ gcc -fuse-ld=gold '-Wl,--package-metadata={"type":"deb","os":"ubuntu"}' test.c /usr/bin/ld.gold: error: cannot open "os":"ubuntu"}: No such file or directory /usr/bin/ld.gold: fatal error: error: --package-metadata={"type":"deb" does not contain valid JSON: '}' expected near end of file collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status ``` The quotation marks in the JSON value do not work well with shell nor make. Specifying the `--package-metadata` linker flag in a `LDFLAGS` environment variable might loose its quotation marks when it hits the final compiler call. Following the same format as the implementation in ld: b0cc81e87087bb8a6b12dc1e4fd7f2591927977b So support percent-encoded and %[string] encoded JSON data in the `--package-metadata` linker flag. Percent-encoding is used because it is a standard, simple to implement, and does take too many additional characters. %[string] encoding is supported for having a more readable encoding. |
