I was building a cross-compiler from i686 linux to sparc solaris 2.8. Binutils were configured as
../binutils-2.19/configure --target=sparc-sun-solaris2.8 \ --with-sysroot=/usr/local/sysroots/sparc-sun-solaris2.8 Where /usr/local/sysroots/sparc-sun-solaris2.8 contains the /usr/include and /usr/lib directories from a solaris2.8/sparc machine. It worked for the most part, but when I was done building gcc, I noticed that the linker does not search /usr/local/sparc-sun-solaris2.8/lib (called $tool_lib from now on) when linking 32 bit applications. These would thus not link unless I passed -rpath-link=$tool_lib to the linker, complaining libgcc_s.so.1 and libstdc++.so.6 could not be found. 64 bit applications link fine, however. The problem lies in the builtin linker scripts. Where the ${builddir}/ld/ldscripts/elf64_sparc.x* linker scripts (and consequently ld/eelf64_sparc.c) are generated including $tool_lib/sparcv9 (but not $tool_lib) in the SEARCH_DIRs, the elf32_sparc.x* scripts don't have $tool_lib; their relevant line is SEARCH_DIR("=/usr/local/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("=/usr/ccs/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("=/lib"); SEARCH_DIR("=/usr/lib"); Manually patching eelf32_sparc.c, then compiling ld solves the problem. I believe the relevant piece of code is in ${sourcedir}/ld/genscripts.sh, lines 155 to 164, where $tool_lib is added to $libs _unless_ binutils are configured with --with-sysroot - in which case they are, however, also needed there. -- Summary: cross ld configured with --with-sysroot doesn't search all relevant library directories Product: binutils Version: 2.19 Status: NEW Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: ld AssignedTo: unassigned at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: f dot knauf at mmkf dot de CC: bug-binutils at gnu dot org GCC build triplet: i686-linux-gnu GCC host triplet: i686-linux-gnu GCC target triplet: sparc-sun-solaris2.8 http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=7061 ------- 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
