Hello.
I am trying to build an ARM build environment on an Ubuntu
9.10
machine. So far I've compiled binutils and gcc for an arm-linux
target,
and cross-compiled uClibc and gdb.
Then, I wrote a small
hello world application and used the
cross-compiler to compile it with
and without the -static flag.
I copied the statically compiled binary
on the ARM device, which
has a serial shell console. I ran it and
everything went OK.
Then I copied the dynamically compiled binary on
the device. I also
copied libuClibc-0.9.30.1.so as /lib/libc.so.0
(glibc was also there,
but as /lib/libc.so.6) and ld-uClibc-0.9.30.1.
so as
/lib/ld-uClibc.so.0 .
The program segfaults even before getting
to main.
By running gdb on the device, I found out that
__uClibc_main ()
calls _init (). _init () returns, and, immediately
afterwards,
__uClibc_main () calls _dl_app_init_array (), which in its
turn
invokes _dl_run_init_array ().
The SIGSEGV happens almost
immediately in _dl_run_init_array ().
By peeking in uClibc's source
code, I got the suspect that the
variable _dl_loaded_modules stays
NULL, instead of being
initialized. That variable is declared in
ldso/ldso/dl-symbols.c .
When is that variable supposed to be
initialised? And, overall,
how do I get my program to work?
I have seen the exact same thing lately, and I cured it by shuffling the
order of the libraries at the link command. It will exhibit this behaviour
if boost_thread-mt is listed before pthread in the link command in our
applications. It did not use to do that.
