@thanm requested issue #41621 to be considered for backport to the next 1.15 minor release.

@gopherbot please consider this for backport to 1.15

Backport seems reasonable given that this problem exists in Go 1.15 and triggers a panic in the linker.

Worth noting that this problem happens primarily with extremely large packages (more than 1048576 relocations), so primarily an issue for things like machine-generated code.

Thanks for the request and rationale.

@thanm Is Go 1.14 okay, or does it need a fix for this problem too? Our backport policy is to either fix the bug in all supported Go versions, or none (if it's not very critical).

Sorry for the late response -- no need for a 1.14 backport here; the code in question was introduced in 1.15. Thanks.

…e reader

The code in the Go object file reader was casting a pointer to mmaped
memory into a large array prior to performing a read of the
relocations section:

	return (*[1<<20]Reloc)(unsafe.Pointer(&r.b[off]))[:n:n]

For very large object files, this artificial array isn't large enough
(that is, there are more than 1048576 relocs to read), so update the
code to use a larger artifical array size.

Fixes #43214.
Updates #41621.
