I think these are the most likely candidates but there's a few more possibilities. We need to consider all relocations in https://github.com/ARM-software/abi-aa/blob/main/aaelf64/aaelf64.rst that had `GDAT`, `GTLSDESC` or `GTPREL` in their operation.
The group relocations 300 - 306 construct a constant from a series of `MOVW` and `MOVK` instructions. To the best of my knowledge no compiler uses these yet. They would be most usefil in a position-independent large code-model (`.got` > 4 GiB from the code), but no-one has yet needed anything that big.
TLS (these all use sequences of instructions and a GOT entry)
539 - 543 For the Initial Exec TLS relocations (GTPREL)
560 - 566 For the TLS Descriptor relocations (GTLSDESC)
The AUTH equivalent "Relocations for PAuth ABI extension" can be generated by clang when generating code for the PAuth ABI. These would be:
581 - 597
