R_PPC_REL24 relocation out of range

R_PPC_REL24 relocation out of range

[Stephane GEORGES]

I am porting some code from linux Intel to linuxppc.

My executables have a plugin notion that allow people to add
some new functionalities to program (like photoshop plugins).

My plugins are shared libraries whose name does not start
with lib (like jobs.so.1.0).

These plugins can link on common shared libraries because
they implement the same main classes.

My issue is that I get such an error message when the second
plugin is beeing loaded (via dlopen)

jobs.so.1.0: R_PPC_REL24 relocation out of range (for instance)

If I rename my plugins adding lib in front of the name, then,
it works correctly (libjobs.so.1.0).

Could someone help me so that it works without the lib added
in front of the shared library name ?
Does ld have special options so that it works ?
(I have glibc-2.1.1-6c and my kernel is a 2.2.13).

The same code works correctly on my linux Intel (with same
version of glibc).

Which version of binutils are you working with? Maybe a newer version
helps?
http://dev.linuxppc.org/pub/users/fsirl/R5/RPMS/ppc/binutils-2.9.5.0.14-0a.ppc.rpm

'undefined external reference' in PPCese.

Rather a new version of ld.so (or the proper LD_PRELOD magic).

I downloaded the binutils-2.9.5.0.14-0a
NOW, most of my plugins are dlopen'ed correctly. But there are still some
of them with which I have the same error message.

I tried the command

ldd -r ..../plugin.so.1.0 and they do not seem to have unresolved symbol.

What do you think it is ?

I'm guessing, what about a glibc / compiler update? Same place above.
Or the latest binutils from ftp.valinux.com/pub/hjl/binutils/?

I really don't know....

R_PPC_REL24 relocation out of range

[David Burg]

Hello,

I'm making cross-compilation from x86 to powerpc and I got such nice error
while executing :
dlopen: ./libf.so: R_PPC_REL24 relocation at 0x6fdb6458 for symbol
`L_OFFSET_TABLE_' out of range

With dynamic linked libraries. Making a search on the internet, I have seen
someone got the same trouble :

http://lists.linuxppc.org/listarcs/linuxppc-dev/200003/msg00025.html

I try this simple program and got the error with the cross-compiler (a
powerpc-linux-gcc 2.95.2 with matching g++ and ld behind). This web page was
of previous year, so I bet there exist a fix now but I can't find it.

I allready use -fpic -fPIC flags to my g++ calls. Note that the bug happen
when cross-compiling the libraries but not when localy compiling the
libraries.



Best regards,

David Burg.

Hello again,

I "simply"* need to update my tool chain. The bug seems to be fixed in newer
release.

Sorry for disturbing you,

David Burg.
*: compiler compilation, so much fun and crasy error messages...
