Got it, I misread your earlier message and thought you were asking about `.rela.dyn` -> `.relr.auth.dyn` rather than `R_AARCH64_ABS64` -> `R_AARCH64_AUTH_ABS64`. Let me see if I can collect those numbers...

I built AOSP with PAuth ABI disabled and enabled for the Cuttlefish (i.e. emulator) arm64 target and ran the following commands from the `symbols` directory of the build directory, which...

(I bet this is the real fix for #702.)

Sure, here is before/after  

Thanks. I was having some trouble figuring out how to run the tests yesterday, `make test` failed with missing binariers so it seemed like I would need to build the...

Also proposing that the new relocation type would always write a little-endian value regardless of the target endianness because A64 instructions are always little-endian.
