Segfault when running cross complied glibc libs.

[Tushar]

Hi all,

I have a cross tool chain with glibc 2.2.2. , binutil 2.12 and gcc
3.2.1. Target machine has ARM Xscale. On target version of glibc is
2.3.2. So I downloaded newer binutil 1.14 and glibc 2.3.2. First I cross
compiled my binutil using


./configure --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu \
        --target=armeb-xscale-linux-gnu
\       --prefix=/home/tushar/crosstool/bin 
        --with-cpu=xscale \
        --with-lib-path=/home/tushar/crosstool/target/usr/local/lib \
                :/home/tushar/crosstool/target/lib: \ 
                /home/tushar/crosstool/target/lib


First , am I doing anything wrong in cross compilation of binutil?


In target folder my root file system for target board resides.
I tested binutil using some test programs (Shared and dynamic) and they
worked on target.


Then I cross compiled glibc using


CC=/home/tushar/crosstool/bin/xscale_be-gcc  CC_FOR_BUILD=gcc \
    ../glibc-2.3.2/configure --build=i686-gnu-linux \
                --host=arm-xscale-linux-gnu \
                --target=arm-xscale-linux-gnu \
                --without-cvs --enable-add-ons --prefix=/ \
                --with-cpu=xscale --without-fp \
                 --enable-shared

Then I transfered libpthread-0.10.so on target and tried one program
dynamically linked. 

/home/tushar/crosstool/bin/xscale_be-gcc -o main main.c -lpthread.

When I try to run it on target, I gives Segfault. 
But when I replaced entire /lib  dir of target with  new  glibc /lib,
other programs of target are working(link busybox). So it seems that
problem is only with programs that I cross compile using new binutil and
glibc on my machine.

What can be reason for this. Am I making any mistake in configuration?

Thanks in Advance.
