+ * vdso2c - A vdso image preparation tool
+ * Copyright (c) 2014 Andy Lutomirski and others
+ * Licensed under the GPL v2
+ *
+ * vdso2c requires stripped and unstripped input. It would be trivial
+ * to fully strip the input in here, but, for reasons described below,
+ * we need to write a section table. Doing this is more or less
+ * equivalent to dropping all non-allocatable sections, but it's
+ * easier to let objcopy handle that instead of doing it ourselves.
+ * If we ever need to do something fancier than what objcopy provides,
+ * it would be straightforward to add here.
+ *
+ * We're keep a section table for a few reasons:
+ *
+ * The Go runtime had a couple of bugs: it would read the section
+ * table to try to figure out how many dynamic symbols there were (it
+ * shouldn't have looked at the section table at all) and, if there
+ * were no SHT_SYNDYM section table entry, it would use an
+ * uninitialized value for the number of symbols. An empty DYNSYM
+ * table would work, but I see no reason not to write a valid one (and
+ * keep full performance for old Go programs). This hack is only
+ * needed on x86_64.
+ *
+ * The bug was introduced on 2012-08-31 by:
+ * https://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=56ea40aac72b
+ * and was fixed on 2014-06-13 by:
+ * https://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=fc1cd5e12595
+ *
+ * Binutils has issues debugging the vDSO: it reads the section table to
+ * find SHT_NOTE; it won't look at PT_NOTE for the in-memory vDSO, which
+ * would break build-id if we removed the section table. Binutils
+ * also requires that shstrndx != 0. See:
+ * https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17064
+ *
+ * elfutils might not look for PT_NOTE if there is a section table at
+ * all. I don't know whether this matters for any practical purpose.
+ *
+ * For simplicity, rather than hacking up a partial section table, we
+ * just write a mostly complete one. We omit non-dynamic symbols,
+ * though, since they're rather large.
+ *
+ * Once binutils gets fixed, we might be able to drop this for all but
+ * the 64-bit vdso, since build-id only works in kernel RPMs, and
+ * systems that update to new enough kernel RPMs will likely update
+ * binutils in sync. build-id has never worked for home-built kernel
+ * RPMs without manual symlinking, and I suspect that no one ever does
+ * that.
