[Buildroot] [PATCH v3 1/3] package/pkg-golang: allow packages to provide extldflags

[Buildroot] [PATCH v3 1/3] package/pkg-golang: allow packages to provide extldflags

[Fiona Klute via buildroot]

From: "Yann E. MORIN" <yann.morin@orange.com>

Currently, only the -static extldflags may be set in the
golang-package infra. However, in some cases, it might be necessary to
pass other flags, either because they are needed on a specific
architecture, or a specific C library; packages may also have a need
to pass arbitrary linker flags when they use CGO linking.

For example, on AArch64, go forcibly uses ld.gold, but it is not
available in all toolchains, and ld.bfd works nowadays (following
patch); another case is musl, where PIE is not supported with go.

Introduce FOO_EXTLDFLAGS, which we use to set those flags, and that
packages can set to pass such flags.

Migrate the current setting of -static to use that new variable.

[Buildroot] [PATCH v3 2/3] package/pkg-golang: use ld.bfd instead of ld.gold on aarch64

[Fiona Klute via buildroot]

From: "Fiona Klute (WIWA)" <fiona.klute@gmx.de>

Go forces use of the Gold linker on aarch64 due to a bug in BFD that
is fixed in Binutils >= 2.41 (that includes all versions provided by
Buildroot). Forcing Gold will break with toolchains that don't provide
it (like the Buildroot toolchains), so override the flag and use BFD.

This override should be removed if Go stops forcing Gold, and may have
to be adapted if the set of available linkers changes (e.g. with a
future Binutils update).

See: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/22040

This patch would fix issues also related to containerd, that we also
see in the autobuilders, e.g.:

    http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/a59/a59bc999e9620ff6b9d97138a2de898aadc07529/build-end.log
