ReadOnly are the symbol kinds that form read-only sections. In some cases, if they will require relocations, they are transformed into rel-ro sections using relROMap.

var ReadOnly = []SymKind{
    STYPE,
    SSTRING,
    SGOSTRING,
    SGOFUNC,
    SGCBITS,
    SRODATA,
    SRODATAFIPSSTART,
    SRODATAFIPS,
    SRODATAFIPSEND,
    SRODATAEND,
    SFUNCTAB,
}

RelROMap describes the transformation of read-only symbols to rel-ro symbols.

var RelROMap = map[SymKind]SymKind{
    STYPE:     STYPERELRO,
    SSTRING:   SSTRINGRELRO,
    SGOSTRING: SGOSTRINGRELRO,
    SGOFUNC:   SGOFUNCRELRO,
    SGCBITS:   SGCBITSRELRO,
    SRODATA:   SRODATARELRO,
    SFUNCTAB:  SFUNCTABRELRO,
}

type CompilationUnit

A CompilationUnit represents a set of source files that are compiled together. Since all Go sources in a Go package are compiled together, there's one CompilationUnit per package that represents all Go sources in that package, plus one for each assembly file.

Equivalently, there's one CompilationUnit per object file in each Library loaded by the linker.

These are used for both DWARF and pclntab generation.

type CompilationUnit struct {
    Lib       *Library      // Our library
    PclnIndex int           // Index of this CU in pclntab
    PCs       []dwarf.Range // PC ranges, relative to Textp[0]
    DWInfo    *dwarf.DWDie  // CU root DIE
    FileTable []string      // The file table used in this compilation unit.

    Consts    LoaderSym            // Package constants DIEs
    FuncDIEs  []LoaderSym          // Function DIE subtrees
    VarDIEs   []LoaderSym          // Global variable DIEs
    AbsFnDIEs []LoaderSym          // Abstract function DIE subtrees
    RangeSyms []LoaderSym          // Symbols for debug_range
    Textp     []LoaderSym          // Text symbols in this CU
    Addrs     map[LoaderSym]uint32 // slot in .debug_addr for fn sym (DWARF5)
}

type Library

type Library struct {
    Objref      string
    Srcref      string
    File        string
    Pkg         string
    Shlib       string
    Fingerprint goobj.FingerprintType
    Autolib     []goobj.ImportedPkg
    Imports     []*Library
    Main        bool
    Units       []*CompilationUnit

    Textp       []LoaderSym // text syms defined in this library
    DupTextSyms []LoaderSym // dupok text syms defined in this library
}

func (Library) String

func (l Library) String() string

type LoaderSym

LoaderSym holds a loader.Sym value. We can't refer to this type from the sym package since loader imports sym.

type LoaderSym uint32

type RelocVariant

RelocVariant is a linker-internal variation on a relocation.

type RelocVariant uint8
const (
    RV_NONE RelocVariant = iota

    RV_POWER_HA

    // the value to be placed into the relocatable field should first be
    // divided by 2.

    RV_CHECK_OVERFLOW RelocVariant = 1 << 7
    RV_TYPE_MASK      RelocVariant = RV_CHECK_OVERFLOW - 1

type Section

    Extnum  int16
    Align   int32
    Name    string
    Vaddr   uint64
    Length  uint64
    Seg     *Segment
    Elfsect any // an *ld.ElfShdr
    Reloff  uint64
    Rellen  uint64
    // Relcount is the number of *host* relocations applied to this section
    // (when external linking).
    // Incremented atomically on multiple goroutines.
    // Note: this may differ from number of Go relocations, as one Go relocation
    // may turn into multiple host relocations.
    Relcount uint32
    Sym      LoaderSym // symbol for the section, if any
    Index    uint16    // each section has a unique index, used internally

    Compressed bool

type Segment

type Segment struct {
    Rwx      uint8  // permission as usual unix bits (5 = r-x etc)
    Vaddr    uint64 // virtual address
    Length   uint64 // length in memory
    Fileoff  uint64 // file offset
    Filelen  uint64 // length on disk
    Sections []*Section
}

type SymKind

A SymKind describes the kind of memory represented by a symbol.

type SymKind uint8

Defined SymKind values.

TODO(rsc): Give idiomatic Go names.

    // An otherwise invalid zero value for the type.

    // When linking a shared object, some conceptually "read only" types need to

    // ".rodata" interacts poorly with the system linkers. The GNU linkers
    // support this situation by arranging for sections of the name
    // ".data.rel.ro.XXX" to be mprotected read only by the dynamic linker after
    // relocations have applied, so when the Go linker is creating a shared
    // object it checks all objects of the above types and bumps any object that
    // has a relocation to it to the corresponding type below, which are then
    // written to sections with appropriate magic names.
