Hello,

I've recently investigated
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22233 which is a
segfault in gold with the --fix-cortex-a53-843419 applied.

The full details are in the PR, to summarise:
- The fix for PR21868 (an internal error when --fix-cortex-a53-843419
is applied) has a small mistake in it.
- When the stub_owner section needs an erratum fix an incorrect
address for the stubs for the section is given to
relocate_erratum_stub.
- If we are lucky we will get a segfault, if we aren't an incorrect
patch or data corruption is possible. The error is visible in PR21868,
but the side-effects aren't fatal.
- The fix is a one line change to add the view_offset to pview.address
when doing the calculation to find the stub address.

This is a first time posting a fix to this mailing list so my
apologies for missing anything out.

Peter

I can confirm that this fixes the linking of the testcases (haskell libraries).
Please could that be applied to the trunk and the 2.29 branch?

General ping for this patch. The fix is one line, and together with
the fixes for PR20765 should fix the known problems with the
--fix-cortex-a53-843419 option.

This is OK, but I prefer it without the + and - of view_offset.
