I recommend not using the word vulnerability
in titles and description as this is usually reserved for security bugs.
I suggest something like `[lld][ELF] Fix crash when relocations proceed relocated section.
I also recommend putting the analysis in the linked issue into the description as this will form the commit message. It is much easier to find and search for changes with git log
when the commit message has all the details.

could rel be renamed to relocated here?
Not part of your change, but I think it would be an improvement. When reviewing just the diff, it was difficult to tell from the name rel whether we are referring to the relocation section, or the section being relocated.

Can you git clang-format the patch? I would expect a space between ){

You can merge do both -rename-section commands with a single instance of llvm-objcopy.

I recommend a CHECK of the llvm-readelf --sections output to make sure lld has created the link from the relocations correctly.
I've seen some scripts been run to find tests with no FileCheck output before so it is worth putting at least one in.

Could you add a comment to explain the test. Without context the steps look strange. LLD uses an additional comment character to distinguish comments from lit commands, so comment lines would start ##
For example:
Test that lld's orphan section placement can handle a relocatable link where the relocation section is seen before the relocated section. To create a test case we need to first need to create a relocatable object with
the relocations before the relocated section. Then we rename these to make these orphans.
I tried to see if I could create the test case without llvm-objcopy but it seemed like I needed the linker script to have .rela.text as the pattern to get it to place first.
Fix the error generated during the linking process when the relocation section is placed before the relocated section and the relocated section is not defined in the linker script.

Thanks for the update. I've enabled the CI. Assuming that goes well then this looks good to me.
I've added the maintainer @MaskRay to see if he has any opinions.
fixes #156417
When the relocation section is placed before the relocated section and the relocated section is not defined in the linker script, an error will occur during the linking process.
Issue Cause:
In the judgment logic,
addOrphanSections
assumes that theRelocatedSection
must be processed before theRelocationSection
. Under this assumption, theOutputSection
for theRelocatedSection
has already been constructed, and theparent
relationship associated with theInputSectionBase
has been established.If the
RelocationSection
is processed before theRelocatedSection
, this assumption is violated. As a result, the conditionrel->parent
evaluates to null, causingadd(relIS)
to not execute. This skips the registration and construction process of theRelocatedSection
, since itscreateOutputSection
andrecordSection
methods have not yet been called at this point.However, during the construction and registration of the
RelocationSection
in theaddInputSec
function, theRelocatedSection
is accessed. Since theRelocatedSection
has not been constructed yet, attempting to access it results in a null pointer error.Solution:
Before processing the
RelocationSection
, ensure that theOutputSection
for theRelocatedSection
is created and registered. The creation and registration logic is protected by theadd
function, which prevents duplicate creation. However, it may result in duplicate establishment of theparent
relationship, which does not affect correctness.
