ldso/mips: dlsym() incorrectly matches undefined symbols
check_match() relies on checking for (sym->st_value == 0) to see if the
symbol is undefined. This works reasonably well on most architectures,
such as ARM or i386:
$ readelf -s /lib32/libcap.so.2 | grep -E "\<malloc\>"
17: 00000000 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND malloc@GLIBC_2.0 (2)
However, on MIPS, libbfd puts nonzero data in the st_value field to
facilitate resetting the symbol's GOT entry if the library that defines
the symbol gets unloaded:
$ mipsel-linux-readelf -s libfoo.so | grep -E "\<malloc\>"
74: 00003140 0 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT UND malloc
This can cause check_match to report a false positive when examining the
external symbol reference. Consequently dlsym() will return a bad pointer
to the caller.
Use the special MIPS logic from glibc-ports-2.13 to avoid this situation.
