Subject: Base address of executables - weirdness?
Date: Tue, 06 Jun 2006 08:42:49 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4485A279.4050403@zytor.com> (raw)
I'm trying to track down an odd issue with klibc on ppc32.
Until recently, binaries linked with ld defaulted to a base address of
0x10000000+SIZEOF_HEADERS. However, recently I've gotten a couple of
reports -- and I've been able to confirm this on my FC5 system -- that
some versions of ld links at 0x01800000+SIZEOF_HEADERS. Needless to
say, this is more than a bit confusing, *especially* since "ld -verbose"
still reports:
PROVIDE (__executable_start = 0x10000000); . = 0x10000000 +
SIZEOF_HEADERS;
... at the top of the linker script.
I'm rather baffled. Has anyone else seen this, and/or have any other
explanation?
