[Bug ld/24701] New: Irix 6.5.30, gcc8.2.0, LD does not output well formed executables
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24701
Bug ID: 24701
Summary: Irix 6.5.30, gcc8.2.0, LD does not output well formed
executables
Product: binutils
Version: 2.32
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: ld
Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
Reporter: daniel.hams at gmail dot com
Target Milestone: ---
I realise this is a bug for a long since discontinued operating system -
apologies for that.
The SGI enthusiast community is in the process of trying to get more modern
tools up and running for these machines - and right now we have a mostly OK
gcc8.2.0 for C when using binutils-2.19.
When using binutils-2.32 - LD doesn't produce valid executables - launching
them in DBX shows the following:
Executable /usr/people/dan/Sources/ldtests/./exe.gcc8.gitld
(dbx) run
Now execute givenfile with the following call:
execvp("/usr/didbs/bin/bash",
"/usr/didbs/bin/bash",
"-c",
"exec ././exe.gcc8.gitld",
(char *)0);

Notably - GAS seems fine and using an earlier LD with 2.32 GAS will produce
valid executables.
You can find some built binaries and some readelf dumps of them here:
