Subject: Re: MUSL issue while loading C++ lib

Hi All,

I was debugging and trying to find the issue in MUSL during finding
 "_Unwind_Resume_or_Rethrow" symbol.
I see that under find_sym function sysv_lookup(s,h,dso) function it is not
able to get above names which seems to be right as the offset in reloc
section of "libstdc++.so.6" is zero

Example table below -

Offset          Info        Type                           Sym.Value   Sym.
Name
0013700c  00000516 R_ARM_JUMP_SLOT   000c8bc8
_ZNSt13basic_filebufIcSt11char_traitsIcEE19_M_terminate_outputEv  (*Able to
lookup*)
*00137330  00051c16 R_ARM_JUMP_SLOT   00000000   _Unwind_Resume_or_Rethrow
      (Failed)*
*00137510  00083616 R_ARM_JUMP_SLOT   00000000   _Unwind_GetLanguageSpe
        (Failed)*

Can some one know how to solve above issue ?
Also I am not able to find the code if libstdc++.so.6  needs dynamic
section libgcc_s.so.1
then by the time MUSL loads libstdc++.so.6 above symbols should not have
Sym.Value = 0x0 ?

Any one know code where if library itself is dependent on other library
where is symbol relocation happening ?
I guess the issue is in that part of MUSL code ? Is there any MUSL patch to
resolve above issue ?

Thanks,
