bad ld64.so

[Jean-Christophe Dubois]

Hello,

I generated a cross-compiler for PPC970.

- gcc3.4.1
- binutils 2.15
- glibc 2.3.2

All went fine and I was able to cross-compile a Linux 2.6.7 Linux kernel
that was able to boot.

However, it seems the generated ld64.so.1 is not that good. It crashes
immediately when you try to execute it.

You can find the output from both 32bits and 64bits version below.

Anybody has a clue or any experience with this?

Regards

JC

Here is the output from the 32 bits version

[root@fr-g5 root]# /lib/ld.so.1 
Usage: ld.so [OPTION]... EXECUTABLE-FILE [ARGS-FOR-PROGRAM...]
You have invoked `ld.so', the helper program for shared library
executables.
This program usually lives in the file `/lib/ld.so', and special
directives
in executable files using ELF shared libraries tell the system's program
loader to load the helper program from this file.  This helper program
loads
the shared libraries needed by the program executable, prepares the
program
to run, and runs it.  You may invoke this helper program directly from
the
command line to load and run an ELF executable file; this is like
executing
that file itself, but always uses this helper program from the file you
specified, instead of the helper program file specified in the
executable
file you run.  This is mostly of use for maintainers to test new
versions
of this helper program; chances are you did not intend to run this
program.

  --list                list all dependencies and how they are resolved
  --verify              verify that given object really is a dynamically
linked
                        object we can handle
  --library-path PATH   use given PATH instead of content of the
environment
                        variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH
  --inhibit-rpath LIST  ignore RUNPATH and RPATH information in object
names
                        in LIST


Here is the output from the 64 bits version

[root@fr-g5 root]# /lib64/ld64.so.1
