I'm assuming it's a change to "ld", but it could be one of the directive scripts. I spent yesterday combing changes to the tree, and looking for any files that could have caused this. I came up empty, but then I'm not really sure what I'm looking for. Is there a toolchain person who might know? There's a good person here at Juniper, but he's on California time.... -- Andrew Duane Juniper Networks 978-589-0551 10 Technology Park Dr aduane@juniper.net Westford, MA 01886-3418 ________________________________________ From: bhanuprakash bodireddy [bhanuprakashbodireddy@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, April 14, 2011 3:11 PM To: Andrew Duane Cc: mips@freebsd.org Subject: Re: Trouble with dynamic executables I had a similar issue the other day when i did a fresh build world. I tried it to reproduce the issue you reported and its pretty much there in the trunk. But the last buildworld has no such issues and am still using the same old fs image to boot on to the octeon boards. I believe, some recent fixes should have caused this. Thanks, Bhanu Prakash.

Dynamically linked executables do not work at all. Any time I try to run one, I get "Exec format error" (ENOEXEC).

There must be a reason for this though. I've done a fresh update and rebuilt everything including the toolchain. Is there something missing from my system? The loader itself? Libraries? An ldscript file? -- Andrew Duane Juniper Networks 978-589-0551<tel:978-589-0551> 10 Technology Park Dr aduane@juniper.net<mailto:aduane@juniper.net> Westford, MA 01886-3418 _______________________________________________ freebsd-mips@freebsd.org<mailto:freebsd-mips@freebsd.org> mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-mips To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-mips-unsubscribe@freebsd.org<mailto:freebsd-mips-unsubscribe@freebsd.org>"home | help
