From 6901def689b5c77465d34f07822989ec67e80c1e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H.J. Lu" Date: Tue, 24 May 2016 08:44:10 -0700 Subject: Avoid an extra branch to PLT for -z now When --enable-bind-now is used to configure glibc build, we can avoid an extra branch to the PLT entry by using indirect branch via the GOT slot instead, which is similar to the first instructuon in the PLT entry.
