Bug #: 51456 Summary: gcc-4.5.3 ARM misaligned relocation for __gxx_personality_v0 in libstdc++ Classification: Unclassified Product: gcc Version: 4.5.3 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: libstdc++ AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org ReportedBy: junkmailnotr...@yahoo.com gcc-4.5.3 cross-compiled for ARM generates a misaligned relocation for __gxx_personality_v0 in libstdc++. This was found when running Mozilla Fennec, but also occurs with trivial programs linked against libstdc++ such as Hello World. C file hello.c contains: #include <stdio.h> int main(void) { printf("hello world\n"); return (0); } Compiled on an x86_64 host as follows: % arm-softfloat-linux-gnueabi-gcc -o hello hello.c -lstdc++ % Run on an ARM target (iPAQ hx4700) produces the following: # ./hello Bus error # Adding ld.so debug produces the following: # export LD_DEBUG=all # ./hello <snip> 682: 682: relocation processing: /lib/libstdc++.so.6 (lazy) 682: symbol=__gxx_personality_v0; lookup in file=./hello [0] 682: symbol=__gxx_personality_v0; lookup in file=/lib/libstdc++.so.6 [0] 682: binding file /lib/libstdc++.so.6 [0] to /lib/libstdc++.so.6 [0]: normal symbol `__gxx_personality_v0' [CXXABI_1.3] Bus error # Running objdump on the host shows the misaligned symbol: % arm-softfloat-linux-gnueabi-objdump -R /usr/lib/gcc/arm-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/4.5.3/libstdc++.so.6.0.14 | fgrep __gxx_personality_v0 00107afb R_ARM_ABS32 __gxx_personality_v0 00124848 R_ARM_JUMP_SLOT __gxx_personality_v0 % The version information returned by gcc-4.5.3 is the following: % arm-softfloat-linux-gnueabi-gcc -v Using built-in specs.
