Hello,
I managed to get ldso (and thus shared linking to uClibc) to work on
sparc (actually sparc64 kernel with 32-bit userspace), at least on
simple "hello world" program (more complex ones not tested).
Some notes on attached patch (against 0.9.26, would require some work
to apply on current CVS - but I tested 0.9.26, not CVS):
- ELF magic cannot be examined by _dl_strncmp so early, probably because of
string constant, like on ppc/mips/sh
(note that early SEND_STDERR still crashes when trying to do _dl_strlen
- I suppose that string constants require relocation; but adding
load_addr didn't help, just ELF header was displayed instead of crash)
- mmap() is syscall6 like on ppc/mips/sh, not old i386 mmap()
- for generic sparc (i.e. not sparcv8/sparcv9) gcc produces .udiv/.urem
calls for unsigned integer / and % operators - so these operations
must be avoided. I copied do_rem definition from arm header.
But / and % are used also in _dl_simple_ltoa() and
_dl_simple_ltoahex(); in ltoahex gcc optimizes it to shifts (but
I think it's safer to use shifts explicitly, not rely on
optimization...).
I changed % in ltoa to do_rem, but as there was no do_div definition,
I changed all "%d" specifiers to "%x" to avoid crashes (this changes
wouldn't be needed if _dl_simple_ltoa() were fixed to not use
division on sparc).
- "#define SOLARIS_COMPATIBLE" in ld_sysdep.h broke ldso on Linux
because of redefining _dl_linux_resolve only in some places (it was
still referenced in INIT_GOT before redefinition). So
_dl_linux_resolve redefinition should be moved before INIT_GOT
definition or removed.
- sparc64 kernel requires mmap() addresses to be aligned to 8192, not
4096, otherwise mmap() call failed
- reloc_entry must be shifted by 10, not 12 (I found similar operation
in glibc sources)
Aside of sparc-specific fixes:
- I moved some _dl_dprintf()s inside if(_dl_debug_*) conditions (to avoid
debugging messages when LD_DEBUG is not defined)
- it seems that there was possible off-by-one in ltoa and ltoahex?
they are called with char[22] as 1st argument, and then '\0' is stored
in local[22] (_before_ p decrementation)... or am I missing something?
If not, fix is included in patch.
