However, ELF linkers may default to disallowing text relocations in PIE executables, as this would require text segments to be updated at runtime, which is bad for security and increases the copy-on-write footprint of ELF executables and shared libraries. However, none of those concerns apply to PE/COFF executables in the context of EFI, which are copied into memory rather than mmap()'ed, and fixed up by the loader before launch. So pass -z notext to the LLD linker to permit runtime relocations in read-only sections.
