I haven't been able to get obj2yaml or llvm-readobj to print out the full relocation information. Is there a more appropriate tool to use?

Thanks for fixing this! Sorry it took me so long to get back to you. This lgtm % some comments.

Is this essentially a fix for the work that was started in https://reviews.llvm.org/D7946 ?

If we I wonder if the existing test for aliases at offset could be extended to include a relocation: llvm/test/MC/WebAssembly/offset.s? Rather than adding a new test?

I'd be happy to rename the existing test to alias-relative.ll or alias-offset.ll which seem more meaningful.

We are currently trying to move away from .ll tests in the MC directory to .s where possible so even if we do need to add a new test .s would probably be prefered.

Is this a separate issue? It looks like a possible crash. Did you hit this case during testing? I'm curious what conditions would cause this.

The relocation is shown above.. what more information are you looking for?

I would recommend objdump -d -r but I'm not sure its works well enough with WebAssembly at this point.

Yeah, and enabling CFI will enable the LowerTypeTests pass which can generate relative addressing.

Ok, this is pretty small so I can just merge it into the existing test.

Currently, if you enable CFI for WebAssembly (-fsanitize=cfi -fvisibility=hidden), the LowerTypeTests pass will generate a null base pointer as an absolute address, which eventually triggers here. It was a workaround from back when I originally implemented CFI support; D87258 reworks the WAsm portion of that pass to avoid it.

Never mind, I misunderstood the relocation behavior.

Great!

If you add -r here will it also show the relocation information in the objdump output? (I can't remember if that works with wasm or not).
