    cmd/go: fix Go buildid reading on Solaris · 4f74de1e
    Shawn Walker-Salas authored
    TestNoteReading fails on Solaris with linkmode=external due to some
    assumptions made about how ELF .note sections are written by some
    linkers.
    
    On current versions of Solaris and older derivatives, SHF_ALLOC is
    intentionally ignored for .note sections unless the .note section is
    assigned to the text segment via a mapfile.  Also, if .note sections
    are assigned to the text segment, no PT_NOTE program header will be
    created thwarting Go's attempts at attempting to quickly find the
    .note.
    
    Furthermore, Go assumes that the relevant note segment will be placed
    early in the file while the Solaris linker currently places the note
    segment last in the file, additionally thwarting Go's optimisation
    attempts that read only the first 16KB of the file to find the
    buildid.
    
    The fix is to detect when the note section is outside of the first
    16KB of the file and then fallback to additionally reading that
    section of the file.  This way, in future versions of Solaris when
    this linking behaviour is changed, the fast path will always succeed
    and we'll only be slower if it fails; likewise, any other linker that
    does this will also just work.
    
    Fixes #12178
