             Bug #: 15382
           Summary: ld segfaults with .debug_types sections
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.23
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden
    Classification: Unclassified


The segfault happens in 2.23.2. 

Starting program: ld -m elf64btsmip -X -N -r --fatal-warnings -o ../lib/x.a

The key difference between crashing/asserting and working just fine is that I
have enabled debugging. Dwarf-4 debug symbols where each type is placed into
its own .debug_types section. I'm using GCC 4.6.

In binutils 2.22 there is an assert at 
ld: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.22 assertion fail elf64-mips.c:2521
ld: BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.22 assertion fail elf64-mips.c:2522

2532   mirela.r_type3 = ELF64_MIPS_R_TYPE (src[2].r_info);
2533 
2534   mips_elf64_swap_reloca_out (abfd, &mirela,
2535                   (Elf64_Mips_External_Rela *) dst);
2536 }

Unfortunately this bug is preventing me to roll out a new debugging
infrastructure. Thank you for your help.
