From 61b1ef6e7cc4518cdadb808dfa78980cc15a63c3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mike Frysinger Date: Wed, 6 Aug 2014 23:44:29 -0400 Subject: detect broken linker handling of __ehdr_start Older versions of ld on ia64 support __ehdr_start, but generate relocs when they shouldn't. This causes the ld.so to not run because it tries to resolve the __ehdr_start symbol (but it's not exported). --- ChangeLog | 6 ++++++ configure | 26 ++++++++++++++++++++------ configure.ac | 23 ++++++++++++++++++----- 3 files changed, 44 insertions(+), 11 deletions(-) diff --git a/ChangeLog b/ChangeLog index 279bad7d41..d385cc937e 100644 --- a/ChangeLog +++ b/ChangeLog @@ -1,3 +1,9 @@ +2014-08-12 Mike Frysinger + + * configure.ac: Change __ehdr_start code to dereference the struct. + Run readelf on the output to look for relocations. + * configure: Regenerated. + 2014-08-12 Joseph Myers [BZ #17261] diff --git a/configure b/configure index 646e0bc9af..86ba30774b 100755 --- a/configure +++ b/configure @@ -6965,8 +6965,11 @@ if test $libc_cv_predef_stack_protector = yes; then fi libc_extra_cppflags= -{ $as_echo "$as_me:${as_lineno-$LINENO}: checking whether the linker provides __ehdr_start" >&5 -$as_echo_n "checking whether the linker provides __ehdr_start...
