What version of Go are you using (go version)?

tip (9b84814)

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

yes

What did you do?

At https://tip.golang.org/src/cmd/link/internal/ld/elf.go#L1174 the end address is truncated to int32. This is wrong. For very large binaries the end address may not fit into int32. This truncation will cause linker internal error.

CL https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/319289 fixes it.

Found in a Google internal program.

@gopherbot please backport this. This is a build failure without easy workaround. Thanks.
