Hello, I compiled the gcc 6.3.0 for the leon2 processor for RTEMS (i.e. sparc-rtems4.12-*). When linking a fortran program for the leon2 processor I get undefined references for `__sync_bool_compare_and_swap_4' (see below). According to the discussion on the rtems mailinglist the __sync_*-operations are legacy and __atomic_*-operations should be used instead or to quote:
"This __sync_() stuff seems to be used in several places in GCC. So, changing libbacktrace is probably not enough. We need a general solution for the __sync_() builtins on RTEMS. I don't think GCC can be changed to emit __atomic_() calls for the __sync_() builtins (I would still try to ask). The libgcc or libatomic is probably a good place to add them for RTEMS as functions implemented via __atomic_() builtins." Could someone give me some recommendations on what would be the best solution to fix the problem and maybe some pointers on how to start? I put the rtems mailinglist CC, so they can comment as well. sparc-rtems4.12-gcc -B../../../../../leon2/lib/ -specs bsp_specs -qrtems -mcpu=cypress -mhard-float -O2 -g -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wimplicit-function-declaration -Wstrict-prototypes -Wnested-externs -Wl,--gc-sections -mcpu=cypress -mhard-float -o ticker.exe init.o tasks.o -L/localdata/somm_ja/rtems-fortran/install/bsps/4.12/sparc/sparc-rtems4.12/leon2/lib/ -llapack -lrefblas -ltmglib -lcblas -lm -lgfortran -lgcc /localdata/somm_ja/rtems-fortran/install/tools/4.12/sparc/lib/gcc/sparc-rtems4.12/6.3.0/libgfortran.a(elf.o): In function `backtrace_initialize': /localdata/somm_ja/rtems-fortran/rtems-source-builder/rtems/build/sparc-rtems4.12-gcc-6.3.0-newlib-2.5.0-x86_64-linux-gnu-1/build/sparc-rtems4.12/libbacktrace/../../../gcc-6.3.0/libbacktrace/elf.c:960: undefined reference to `__sync_bool_compare_and_swap_4' /localdata/somm_ja/rtems-fortran/install/tools/4.12/sparc/lib/gcc/sparc-rtems4.12/6.3.0/libgfortran.a(elf.o): In function `elf_add_syminfo_data': /localdata/somm_ja/rtems-fortran/rtems-source-builder/rtems/build/sparc-rtems4.12-gcc-6.3.0-newlib-2.5.0-x86_64-linux-gnu-1/build/sparc-rtems4.12/libbacktrace/../../../gcc-6.3.0/libbacktrace/elf.c:456: undefined reference to `__sync_bool_compare_and_swap_4' /localdata/somm_ja/rtems-fortran/install/tools/4.12/sparc/lib/gcc/sparc-rtems4.12/6.3.0/libgfortran.a(dwarf.o): In function `backtrace_dwarf_add': /localdata/somm_ja/rtems-fortran/rtems-source-builder/rtems/build/sparc-rtems4.12-gcc-6.3.0-newlib-2.5.0-x86_64-linux-gnu-1/build/sparc-rtems4.12/libbacktrace/../../../gcc-6.3.0/libbacktrace/dwarf.c:3030: undefined reference to `__sync_bool_compare_and_swap_4' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Makefile:627: recipe for target 'ticker.exe' failed make: *** [ticker.exe] Error 1 Best regards, Jan Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e.
