            Bug ID: 19183
           Summary: No room reserved in .dynamic section for prelink
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.26 (HEAD)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ld
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: hjl.tools at gmail dot com

  Target Milestone: ---

prelink needs to reserve a few entries in dynamic section:

I reverted the change since it createed dynamic entries even
for static binaries:

https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2001-07/msg00039.html

I suggested to add another switch to the ELF linker,
--reserve-dynamic N:

https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2001-07/msg00055.html

But nothing happened since.  As result, prelink doesn't work
if there is no room reserved in .dynamic section by accident.
