[maybe you'd want me to post this on the mailing list? if so, let me know]
In case you are not already looking at this, please could you try building an ELF targeted ARM toolchain (as opposed to an EABI one, eg arm-elf or arm-netbsdelf) and then trying the linker testsuite with your new farcall tests in it. If you get the same results as me then you will see that there are a whole bunch of new failures there. Failures which are not present when tested with an arm-eabi toolchain...
I do confirm that there are new failures with the arm-elf target.
On my side, I also noticed some failures without my patch:
arm-pic-veneer, "preempt thumb symbol", script-type, "EABI attribute merging", "EABI attribute merging 2"
The issues of the 1st two seem to also explain the failures with the tests I added or modified. Indeed, with arm-elf, it seems to me that the attributes sections from the ELF file are not present, so some of the information used to support far calls is not available.
I am not sure about how to proceed.
Cheers Nick
