Hi,
I'm trying to build a cross-compiling environment for AMD64 to run on x86
platforms using binutils-2.15.92.0.2. I use the following command on my AMD64
machine to configure binutils:
CC="gcc -m32" ../configure --target=x86_64-redhat-linux \
--prefix=$NIRMAAN_BUILD_ENV/usr \
--program-suffix="-2.15" --enable-shared \
--enable-targets=i386-redhat-linux
Then I did a "make install". Both the steps went through fine with no errors.
However, the installed assembler when run with the following options:
--traditional-format -V -Qy
on a particular assembly file (will ship it on request) gives the following
errors:
GNU assembler version 2.15 (x86_64-redhat-linux) using BFD version 2.15
t.s: Assembler messages:
t.s:4671: Error: invalid sections for operation on `.L1430' and `L0'
t.s:4670: Error: invalid sections for operation on `.L1430' and `L0'
t.s:4669: Error: invalid sections for operation on `.L1424' and `L0'
<snipped>
This assembly code was obtained using GCC 2.3.2 using the "-fPIC -m64" option.
The problem vanishes when I compile without the -fPIC option but keep the
"-m64" option. I.e., non-PIC code work while PIC code doesn't.
The problem also vanishes when I reconfigure the binutils package and
reinstall it with CC="gcc -m64". Essentially the 64-bit executable works
while the 32-bit executable doesn't.
Is there a solution to this problem already?
Thanks in advance and regards
Ayonam
