be involved when it exists, not the .got section.

I think that I've already explained this: lld produces two different
sections instead of just one .got section: .got and .got.plt .

.got is now for only global variables. (These can be in the
RELRO region: read-only after upfront relocation.) My program
had no global variables. If you want I can change it to have one
and use it so that the .got will not be empty.

.got.plt is for code references that allow lazy relocation.
(These can not being the the RELRO region.) Having the global
variable would not change this from what I can tell.

In the older toolchain these were both in the .got section and
the global variable relocations could not be in the RELRO region
because of the mixing in one section.

That is not it from what I can tell reading about what the .got.plt
section is for and why it was split from the .got section.

I think I'll add a global variable and use it so that their is no
question what goes in the .got section instead of having no examples.

I think you are not going in the right direction now for what the
.got section is for as lld is producing things for powerpc64 (not
that I'm an expert in the older or newer techniques).

I think that I will first add the global variable and its use
and show what the last change with Plt instead of Got ends
up looking like --but with your log notices added.

Then I'll retry with the Plt use reverted.

It may be a bit before I get the Plt and/or Got examples done.
I might report the Plt case first and separately, later report
the Got case.
