I dont think it will be enough. In void Writer<ELFT>::scanRelocs() method E->NeedsCopy flag is used to determine
if rela.dyn entry is needed for SharedSymbol or not. Each such copy relocation for symbol should be added to rela.dyn only once
and that is for what this flag was initially added I think.
if (auto *E = dyn_cast<SharedSymbol<ELFT>>(Body)) {
if (E->NeedsCopy)
continue;
E->NeedsCopy = Target->relocNeedsCopy(Type, *Body);
}
....
Out<ELFT>::RelaDyn->addReloc({C, RI});

I`ll review that idea later.
