Even more simple test causes ld to crash in BFD: $ g++ -shared -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,--whole-archive `gcc -print-file-name=libsupc++.a` -Wl,--no-whole-archive collect2: ld terminated with signal 11 [Segmentation fault] /usr/bin/ld: BFD 2.16.91.0.6 20060212 assertion fail elflink.c:2317 /usr/bin/ld: BFD 2.16.91.0.6 20060212 assertion fail elflink.c:2318 [last two lines repeated 149 times] Fixed upstream in 2.17.50.0.1-1. |
ld --as-needed sometimes fails with internal error. I constructed a small testcase described below. $ cat sample.cc extern void foo(void); void my() { foo(); } $ g++ -Wl,--no-as-needed -shared -Wall -fPIC sample.cc -lsupc++; echo rc=$? rc=0 $ g++ -Wl,--as-needed -shared -Wall -fPIC sample.cc -lsupc++; echo rc=$? /usr/bin/ld: BFD 2.16.91.0.6 20060212 assertion fail elflink.c:2317 /usr/bin/ld: BFD 2.16.91.0.6 20060212 assertion fail elflink.c:2318 [last two lines repeated many times] /usr/bin/ld: BFD 2.16.91.0.6 20060212 internal error, aborting at elflink.c line 6453 in elf_link_output_extsym /usr/bin/ld: Please report this bug. collect2: ld returned 1 exit status rc=1 Tested with binutils-2.16.91.0.6-4 and gcc-c++-4.1.0-3 on i686 and x86_64.
