[2] + +In 2012, __ehdr_start was implemented in GNU ld and gold in binutils +2.23. Using adrp+add / (-mcmodel=tiny) adr to access +__ehdr_start/_DYNAMIC gives us a robust way to get the load address and +the link-time address of _DYNAMIC. + +[1]: From a psABI maintainer, https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49672#c2 +[2]: LLD's aarch64 port does not set _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_[0] to the +link-time address _DYNAMIC. +LLD is widely used on aarch64 Android and ChromeOS devices.
