[Bug binutils/1486] DISASSEMBLER_NEEDS_RELOCS doesn't work correctly

Most people would only build a single-targeted toolchain not a multiply targeted toolchain like the one you mention above. > which leads to "make check" failure on Linux/x86 when > --enable-targets=arm-linux is used.

Well this is a reasonable request and should be too hard to do. The patch ought to be sure that relocs are not read in unnecessarily and that the absence of relocs does not prevent disassembly, but otherwise it should be quite straightforward. Please feel free to submit a suitable patch.

[Bug binutils/1486] DISASSEMBLER_NEEDS_RELOCS doesn't work correctly
--- Additional Comments From hjl at lucon dot org 2005-10-19 17:33 --- I meant "disassemblers", not "assemblers". With "-enable-targets=arm-linux", I got FAIL: i386 pcrel reloc FAIL: i386 gotpc FAIL: i386 dynamic tls on Linux/x86. I think even with DISASSEMBLER_NEEDS_RELOCS defined, ia32 disassembler output should be the same. I suspect the bug is in implementation of DISASSEMBLER_NEEDS_RELOCS. I can give it a try. But since I don't know the reason behind it, I may not be able to fix it correctly. -- What|Removed |Added Summary| DISASSEMBLER_NEEDS_RELOCS |DISASSEMBLER_NEEDS_RELOCS |doesn't work correctly |doesn't work correctly http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1486 --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
[Bug ld/1502] New: regression: ld-mmix/bspec2 fails
Started failing between LAST_UPDATED "Fri Oct 14 17:12:36 UTC 2005" and "Sun Oct 16 01:33:18 UTC 2005". Still failed with "Mon Oct 17 15:28:21 UTC 2005". Running /home/hp/combined/combined/ld/testsuite/ld-mmix/mmix.exp ... ... FAIL: ld-mmix/bspec2 The message in ld.log indicates a too large diff to usefully paste here. Executing the test by hand, it seems there's now two sections both named .MMIX.spec_data.2. That just can't be just a ld layout thing but a real bug. I suspect the recent place-orphans-by-type changes. -- Summary: regression: ld-mmix/bspec2 fails Product: binutils Version: 2.17 (HEAD) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld AssignedTo: unassigned at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: hp at sourceware dot org CC: bug-binutils at gnu dot org GCC target triplet: mmix-knuth-mmixware http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1502 --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
