This is similar to commit b21ebf2fb4cd ("x86: Treat R_X86_64_PLT32 as
R_X86_64_PC32"), but for i386. As far as Linux kernel is concerned,
R_386_PLT32 can be treated the same as R_386_PC32.
R_386_PC32/R_X86_64_PC32 are PC-relative relocation types with the
requirement that the symbol address is significant.
R_386_PLT32/R_X86_64_PLT32 are PC-relative relocation types without the
address significance requirement.
On x86-64, there is no PIC vs non-PIC PLT distinction and an
R_X86_64_PLT32 relocation is produced for both `call/jmp foo` and
`call/jmp foo@PLT` with newer (2018) GNU as/LLVM integrated assembler.
On i386, there are 2 types of PLTs, PIC and non-PIC. Currently the
convention is to use R_386_PC32 for non-PIC PLT and R_386_PLT32 for PIC
PLT.
clang-12 -fno-pic (since
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/a084c0388e2a59b9556f2de0083333232da3f1d6)
can emit R_386_PLT32 for compiler generated function declarations as
well to avoid a canonical PLT entry (st_shndx=0, st_value!=0) if the
symbol turns out to be defined externally. GCC/GNU as will likely keep
using R_386_PC32 because (1) the ABI is legacy (2) the change will drop
a GNU ld non-default visibility ifunc for shared objects.
