--- Comment #2 from Jose E. Marchesi <jose.marchesi at oracle dot com> --- Hi Nick. I tried that locally and definitely works. But I don't think it is the right fix in this case. When linked without -Ttext=0x0, the following segments are created in the resulting executable: Elf file type is EXEC (Executable file) Entry point 0x400000 There are 2 program headers, starting at offset 64 Program Headers: Type Offset VirtAddr PhysAddr FileSiz MemSiz Flags Align LOAD 0x0000000000100000 0x0000000000400000 0x0000000000400000 0x0000000000000648 0x0000000000000648 R E 0x100000 LOAD 0x0000000000101648 0x0000000000801648 0x0000000000801648 0x0000000000000006 0x0000000000000006 RW 0x100000 Section to Segment mapping: Segment Sections... 00 .text 01 .data Which is perfectly fine. But then it is the simulator that fails with: spawn ./bpf/run --memory-size=4Mb /home/jemarch/gnu/src/binutils-gdb/build-bpf/sim/alu.s.x core: 8 byte read to unmapped address 0x400000 at 0x400000 Meaning the simulator is somehow not loading the segments at the right VMA. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
