Hello, since some time ago (I think all 2.20 versions suffer from this problem too) xulrunner from firefox 3.6.8 (and some older) don't link properly in mips.
This happens compiling for ABI n32. r0bertz did some analysis about the problem already two or three months ago, in the binutils mailing list. And we still have not found any solution: http://old.nabble.com/R_MIPS_TLS_GD-reloc-overflow-when-linking->%3Dxulrunner-1.9.1.5-td26755056.html The last binutils I tried was a snapshot from the 12th of August. So here you have the symptom. When linking libxul.so, it reports: ../../staticlib/components/libxpconnect.a(xpcjsruntime.o): In function `XPCJSRuntime::GCCallback(JSContext*, JSGCStatus)': xpcjsruntime.cpp:(.text+0x1514): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_TLS_GD against `gTLSIsMainThread' ../../staticlib/components/libxpconnect.a(xpcthreadcontext.o): In function `XPCPerThreadData::GetDataImpl(JSContext*)': xpcthreadcontext.cpp:(.text+0x834): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_TLS_GD against `gTLSIsMainThread' ../../staticlib/components/libnecko.a(nsSocketTransportService2.o): In function `nsSocketTransportService::Shutdown()': nsSocketTransportService2.cpp:(.text+0x1890): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_TLS_GD against `gTLSIsMainThread' ../../staticlib/components/libnecko.a(nsSocketTransportService2.o): In function `nsSocketTransportService::Init()': nsSocketTransportService2.cpp:(.text+0x19e4): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_TLS_GD against `gTLSIsMainThread' ../../staticlib/components/libuconv.a(nsCharsetConverterManager.o): In function `nsCharsetConverterManager::GetCharsetAlias(char const*, nsACString_internal&)': nsCharsetConverterManager.cpp:(.text+0xa78): relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_TLS_GD against `gTLSIsMainThread' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status The objects linked have a gcc command-line like this: c++ -o nsRDFResource.o -c -fvisibility=hidden -DMOZ_ENABLE_GTK2 -DMOZ_PLUGINS -DMOZ_XPFE_COMPONENTS -DMOZ_XPINSTALL -DMOZ_JSDEBUGGER -DMOZ_PREF_EXTENSIONS -DMOZ_AUTH_EXTENSION -DMOZ_PERMISSIONS -DMOZ_UNIVERSALCHARDET -DMOZ_FILEVIEW -DMOZ_ENABLE_POSTSCRIPT -DMOZ_SPELLCHECK -DMOZ_ZIPWRITER -DMOZILLA_INTERNAL_API -DOSTYPE=\"Linux2.6.35\" -DOSARCH=Linux -D_IMPL_NS_COM -D_IMPL_NS_STRINGAPI -DEXPORT_XPT_API -DEXPORT_XPTC_API -D_IMPL_NS_GFX -D_IMPL_NS_WIDGET -DIMPL_XREAPI -I../../intl/unicharutil/util -I../../config -I../../widget/src/windows -I../../widget/src/build -I. -I. -I../../dist/include -fPIC -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Woverloaded-virtual -Wsynth -Wno-ctor-dtor-privacy -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -Wcast-align -Wno-invalid-offsetof -Wno-long-long -pedantic -fno-strict-aliasing -fshort-wchar -pthread -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -Os -freorder-blocks -fno-reorder-functions -DMOZILLA_CLIENT -include ../../mozilla-config.h -Wp,-MD,.deps/nsRDFResource.pp nsRDFResource.cpp The 'c++' linking command line mentions: -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions -Wall -Wpointer-arith -Woverloaded-virtual -Wsynth -Wno-ctor-dtor-privacy -Wno-non-virtual-dtor -Wcast-align -Wno-invalid-offsetof -Wno-long-long -pedantic -fno-strict-aliasing -fshort-wchar -pthread -pipe -DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -Os -freorder-blocks -fno-reorder-functions -fPIC -shared Regards, Lluís. -- Summary: relocation truncated to fit R_MIPS_TLS_GD linking xulrunner Product: binutils Version: 2.21 (HEAD) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld AssignedTo: unassigned at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: viriketo at gmail dot com CC: bug-binutils at gnu dot org GCC build triplet: mips64-unknown-linux GCC host triplet: mips64-unknown-linux GCC target triplet: mips64-unknown-linux http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11956 ------- 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
