           Summary: gld should support R_386_TLS_GD_PLT, R_386_TLS_LDM_PLT
                    relocs
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.22 (HEAD)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden
        Depends on: 12995
            Target: i?86-pc-solaris2.*


As dicussed in PR gas/12995, for correct handling of 32-bit TLS GD and LD on
Solaris/x86, one needs to support the @tldgdplt and @tlsldmplt relocs.  While
the gas support is necessary to work correctly with Sun ld, GNU ld support
could
be considered optional since the original GNU TLS code sequences work fine with
gld.  On the other hand, one could argue that it would be incorrect for gas to
emit relocs that dld cannot handle.

When working on the gas side of things, I also tried to get gld support right,
but failed almost completely.  I may take a fresh look if this PR is considered
worthwhile, otherwise this could just be closed as WONTFIX.
