Subject: [PATCH] PR22166, SHT_GNU_verneed memory allocation
The sanity check covers the previous minimim size, plus that the size
is at least enough for sh_info verneed entries.
Also, since we write all verneed fields or exit with an error, there
isn't any need to zero the memory allocated for verneed entries.
PR 22166
* elf.c (_bfd_elf_slurp_version_tables): Test sh_info on
SHT_GNU_verneed section for sanity. Don't zalloc memory for
verref.
Upstream-Status: Backport
Affects: <= 2.29.1
