================
Comment at: ELF/Writer.cpp:1281-1291
if (InX::DynSymTab && S->includeInDynsym()) {
+ if (Body->isUndefined() && !Body->IsUsedInReloc)
+ // This symbol was most probably used in a section, which was collected
+ // in the GC phase. We don't need such symbols in the dynamic symbols
+ // table because they solely introduce useless dependencies.
+ continue;
InX::DynSymTab->addSymbol(Body);
----------------
I don't think this is logically correct. If `includeInDynsym` returns true, the symbol should be included in a .dynsym regardless of other conditions. You should modify other place so that `includeInDynsym` works correctly.
