Bug ID: 34821
Summary: GNU ld MIPS dereferences a NULL hash entry while
asserting a MINUS_ONE TLS value
Product: binutils
Version: 2.46
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: ld

I'm reporting this bug on behalf of my team: Ananta Srikar Puranam, Emily West,
Dr. Swarn Priya, Dr. Peng Gao and Dr. Basavesh Ammanaghatta Shivakumar.
Summary
=======
An O32 R_MIPS_TLS_GOTTPREL relocation against symbol zero whose st_value is the
MINUS_ONE sentinel makes released GNU ld segfault in final links and current
commit 1785516 evaluate h->root through NULL inside the assertion at
elfxx-mips.c:3567; the exact one-byte 0xfffffffe control and the conforming
zero-valued symbol control pass static and PIE links.
Reproduction
============
1. Download and extract
`bfd-mips-tls-gottprel-minus-one-null-hash-entry-reproducer.tar.gz`.
2. Run the following command with an ld.bfd or all-target `ld-new` binary that
supports the emulation used by the reproducer:
BFD=/path/to/ld-new sh repro.sh
The archive contains the fixed input files, independent controls, helper
scripts needed by `repro.sh`, and their checksums. The script uses a temporary
directory and does not modify the source tree.
Observed result
===============
An O32 R_MIPS_TLS_GOTTPREL relocation against symbol zero whose st_value is the
MINUS_ONE sentinel makes released GNU ld segfault in final links and current
commit 1785516 evaluate h->root through NULL inside the assertion at
elfxx-mips.c:3567; the exact one-byte 0xfffffffe control and the conforming
zero-valued symbol control pass static and PIE links.
Expected result
===============
GNU ld should either produce the correct output or reject the input with a
normal diagnostic. It should not crash, hang, execute undefined behavior, read
outside an input-derived allocation, or produce the described malformed
output.
