I tried to compile binutils-2.18 for armv5te-softfloat-linux-uclibc target with LDFLAGS="-Wl,-z,defs". libopcodes.so fails to link due to missing symbols that are in libiberty.a (floatformat_to_double and floatformat_ieee_single_little used in arm-dis.c). The *cygwin targets already have a fix in cvs for this adding -L`pwd`/../libiberty -liberty to SHARED_LIBADD (opcodes/configure.in), probably the dependency has to fixed too, adding `pwd`/../libiberty/libiberty.a to it
Additional comment: haven't tried to compile the cvs sources, but reading the code arm-dis.c uses the functions in floatformat, so it should have the same problem if it does not link against libiberty.a. The *cygwin target is fixed (since cygwin will bail out on undefined symbols), I do not really know if all other cases in cvs should be fixed, the case I am speaking about is the host == * && host_vendor != hp in opcodes/configure.in, although limited to arm*. Note: the only other arch using in *-dis.c some floatformat function is m68k, so m68k is affected too -- Summary: binutils 2.18 fails linking libopcodes.so due to missing symbols Product: binutils Version: unspecified Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: binutils AssignedTo: unassigned at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: ps dot m at gmx dot net CC: bug-binutils at gnu dot org GCC host triplet: i686-pc-linux-gnu GCC target triplet: armv5te-softfloat-linux-uclibc http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6937 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
