Hi all
I am just building lfs 7.9 and performed the test in chapter 6.13.
I a under the impression to have done everything strictly by the book, but
I'm getting an error that is not metioned on the page.
Below is the test output of "make check", I have omitted everyting that
reports no errors:
Running /lgl-bld/binutils-2.26/ld/testsuite/ld-elf/compress.exp ...
FAIL: Link with zlib-gabi compressed debug output
Running /lgl-bld/binutils-2.26/ld/testsuite/ld-x86-64/x86-64.exp ...
FAIL: PLT PC-relative offset overflow check
While the book states:
The test 'Link with zlib-gabi compressed debug output' is known to fail.
, my second error is not mentioned as expected to fail. Do I have to worry?
I do not recall ever seeing the PLT PC-relative offset overflow check
before, but I wouldn't worry about a single error when 1371 tests pass.
Sometimes a check failure can be triggered by specific hardware and is
likely a problem with the check, not the code being checked.
I would ignore the issue.
The summary is as follows:
=== ld Summary ===
# of expected passes 1371
# of unexpected failures 2
# of expected failures 57
# of untested testcases 1
# of unsupported tests 12
After the summary, I get these messages:

That's just the test harness. Those lines can be ignored.
