mold 2.3.2 contains the following bug fixes.

  • mold no longer emits dynamic relocations against the text segment for GNU ifunc symbols. Previously, mold emitted such relocations for position-dependent executables. (4cdfc7e)
  • mold no longer reports the "REL-type relocation table is not supported for this target" error and instead ignore incompatible relocation tables. LLVM generates such non-conforming relocation tables for the .llvm.call-graph-profile section. This change was made for compatibility. (3791900)
  • mold now pads unused gaps in the text segment with interrupt or NOP instructions, instead of leaving them filled with zeros. This alteration does not change the program's semantics but prevents disassemblers from interpreting the spaces between functions as valid instructions. (c86a59a)
  • mold now creates the .mold-lock file for MOLD_JOBS not in the home directory but in $XDG_RUNTIME_DIR, which is usually /var/user/<uid>. (39cdf61)
  • [ARM32] There was an issue preventing mold from being built on an ARMv8 64-bit ARM processor with an ARM32 userland, such as the 32-bit Raspberry Pi OS running on a Raspberry Pi 4. This build issue has been resolved. (02ead29)
  • [LoongArch] mold can now handle R_LARCH_PCALA_LO12 relocation for the jirl instruction. (d3188e3)
