Bug ID: 17847
Summary: Confusing linker error message
Product: binutils
Version: 2.26 (HEAD)
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: ld
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: hjl.tools at gmail dot com
[hjl@gnu-6 pie-6]$ cat x.S
.text
.global _start
_start:
movl foo(%rip), %eax
[hjl@gnu-6 pie-6]$ make
gcc -B./ -c -o x.o x.S
./ld -o x -pie x.o
x.o: In function `_start':
(.text+0x2): undefined reference to `foo'
./ld: x.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against undefined symbol `foo' can not be
used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
./ld: final link failed: Bad value
make: *** [x] Error 1
[hjl@gnu-6 pie-6]$
Since foo is undefined, the second error message is confusing.
