Hello, We encountered this problem due to the following reason: The library was built with mips2 archietecture, while we attempt to build the kernel with the flag CPU=r4600, without the mips2 flag. Due to this, the compiler assumes mips3 archietecture for r4600.
It is mandatory to indicate the compiler about archietecture and the CPU Type, otherwise, he will assume default values. In the absence of both values, he will assume mips1 archietecture, if CPU type alone is specified, then he will assume mips3 archietecture. All the object files should be built with the same archietecture, otherwise, the linker cann't link them. Even for linker, these data [archietecture and CPU type] needs to be indicated. Hope this would be helpful, Regards, ARP -----Original Message----- From: xhhe [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 5 September 2003 7:08 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Help on uses different e_flags (0x102) fields than previous modules (0x2) Hi, I get your e-mail addrass on the debian-mips mail list http://lists.debian.org/debian-mips/2002/debian-mips-200210/msg00097.html We have the same problem,Can you help me?
