Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Assignee|unassigned at sourceware dot org |amodra at gmail dot com Status|NEW |ASSIGNED --- Comment #3 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> --- Yes, the problem is that the powerpc ELF backends only support bfd_arch_powerpc (ELF_ARCH in elf32-ppc.c and elf64-ppc.c) and we don't override bfd_set_arch_mach to do anything special, so the default _bfd_elf_set_arch_mach rejects bfd_arch_rs6000. On the other hand, the xcoff backends support both bfd_arch_rs6000 and bfd_arch_powerpc. I think the correct thing to do is simply change ppc_arch to always return bfd_arch_powerpc when OBJ_ELF. I'm testing a patch to do that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
