for the mapping by the object' file with the protection and mode of
the first loadable segment over the whole region. Then, it maps other
segments at the appropriate addresses inside the region.
On amd64, due to default alignment of the segments being 1Gb, the
subsequent segment mappings leave the holes in the region, that usually
contain mapping of the object' file past eof. Such mappings prevent
wiring of the address space, because the pages cannot be faulted in.
Change the way the mapping of the ELF objects is constructed, by first
mapping PROT_NONE anonymous memory over the whole range, and then
mapping the segments of the object over it. Take advantage of this new
order and allocate .bss by changing the protection of the range instead
of remapping.
Note that we cannot simply keep the holes between segments, because
other mappings may be made there. Among other issues, when the dso is
unloaded, rtld unmaps the whole region, deleting unrelated mappings.
The kernel ELF image activator does put the holes between segments, but
this is not critical for now because kernel loads only executable image
and interpreter, both cannot be unloaded. This will be fixed later, if
needed.

are supported. Enabling the substitution requires DF_ORIGIN flag in
DT_FLAGS or DF_1_ORIGIN if DF_FLAGS_1, that may be set with -z origin
gnu ld flag. Translation is unconditionally disabled for setuid/setgid
processes.
The $ORIGIN translation relies on the AT_EXECPATH auxinfo supplied
by kernel.

skipping read-only pages, which can result in valuable non-text-related
data not getting dumped, the ELF loader and the dynamic loader now mark
read-only text pages NOCORE and the coredump code only checks (primarily) for
complete inaccessibility of the page or NOCORE being set.
Certain applications which map large amounts of read-only data will
produce much larger cores. A new sysctl has been added,
debug.elf_legacy_coredump, which will revert to the old behavior.

DT_NEEDED entries in the dynamic table, the search order is as
follows:
* If the referencing object was linked with -Bsymbolic, search it
internally.
* Search all dlopened DAGs containing the referencing object.
* Search all objects loaded at program start up.
* Search all objects which were dlopened() using the RTLD_GLOBAL
flag (which is now supported too).
The search terminates as soon as a strong definition is found.
Lacking that, the first weak definition is used.
