Package: gcc-4.6
Version: 4.6.0-10
Severity: normal
Hello,
Since gcc started using --no-add-needed by default, there are issues
with weak references, see attached testcase:
- libthread represents a thread library, which here only provide the
"cancel" symbol.
- libA is a library which uses the "cancel" symbol, and links against
the thread library.
- foo.c is a file which detects whether the thread library is brought
into the program by showing the value of a weak reference to cancel.
- main.c uses both libA and foo.
The result is this:
cc thread.c -o libthread.so -shared -fPIC
cc libA.c -o libA.so -shared -fPIC -L. -lthread -Wl,-rpath=/tmp/tmp
cc -Wall -g -c -o foo.o foo.c
cc foo.o main.c -o main -L. -lA
/usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: ./libA.so: undefined reference to symbol 'cancel'
/usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: note: 'cancel' is defined in DSO /tmp/tmp/libthread.so so
try adding it to the linker command line
/tmp/tmp/libthread.so: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [main] Erreur 1
For some reason the linker doesn't manage to resolve the "cancel"
symbol, although it's supposed to be brought in by libA.so.
In case you wonder where that testcast comes from, it's actually gcc
itself, the __gthread_active_p() function, which gets inlined into
applications.
