Andrew Geisslerc926e172021-05-07 16:11:35 -05001If a binary has multiple SHT_NOTE sections and corresponding PT_NOTE
2headers, we can see the error:
3
4patchelf: cannot normalize PT_NOTE segment: non-contiguous SHT_NOTE sections
5
6if the SHT_NOTE sections aren't sized to end on aligned boundaries. An example
7would be a binary with:
8
9 [ 2] .note.ABI-tag NOTE 00000000000002f4 000002f4
10 0000000000000020 0000000000000000 A 0 0 4
11 [ 3] .note.gnu.propert NOTE 0000000000000318 00000318
12 0000000000000030 0000000000000000 A 0 0 8
13 [ 4] .note.gnu.build-i NOTE 0000000000000348 00000348

18 NOTE 0x00000000000002f4 0x00000000000002f4 0x00000000000002f4
19 0x0000000000000078 0x0000000000000074 R 0x4

21since the PT_NOTE section at 2f4 covers [2] and [3] but the code
22calclates curr_off should be 314, not the 318 in the binary. This
23is an alignment issue.
24
25To fix this, we need to round curr_off to the next section alignment.
