Bug ID: 25316 Summary: ia64 ld fails to convert binary into elf: "failed to merge target specific data" Product: binutils Version: 2.32 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: slyfox at inbox dot ru Target Milestone: --- Bug originally reported at https://bugs.gentoo.org/699180 by Émeric Maschino. Small reproducer: $ echo hi > hello.123 $ ia64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld -r -b binary hello.123 -o hello.o ia64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld: failed to merge target specific data of file hello.123 $ ia64-unknown-linux-gnu-ld -r -b binary hello.123 -o hello.o --no-warn-mismatch It works without problems on other targets. AFAIU glibc's inlent is to: 1. convert arbitrary binary into an ELF file 2. assign a symbol to it 3. refer from other source files It's a step 1 that fails. The target is ia64-unknown-linux-gnu. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
