# This patch almost works, it allows a statically linked application # to be compiled with a thumb main and to have this work from a # non-thumb uClibc build. However it stops the same thing working # in the dynamically linked case (because the value of 'main' doesn't # have the low bit set when loaded - something must be wrong with the # relocation for STT_ARM_TFUNC?) At present it is not included for # this reason. --- uClibc-0.9.27/libc/misc/internals/__uClibc_main.c 2005-08-13 18:04:09.078682965 -0700 +++ uClibc-0.9.27/libc/misc/internals/__uClibc_main.c 2005-08-13 18:07:38.159839613 -0700 @@ -32,6 +32,13 @@ /* * Prototypes. */ +#if (defined __arm__ || defined __thumb__) && defined __THUMB_INTERWORK__ && defined __linux__ +/* Because when linking statically the GNU linker provides no glue for + * main, so if main is thumb and we are arm or vice versa the static + * link fails. + */ +# define main __arm_main +#endif extern int main(int argc, char **argv, char **envp); extern void weak_function _stdio_init(void); extern int *weak_const_function __errno_location(void); --- uClibc-0.9.27/libc/sysdeps/linux/arm/Makefile 2005-01-11 23:59:21.000000000 -0800 +++ uClibc-0.9.27/libc/sysdeps/linux/arm/Makefile 2005-08-13 18:08:08.953777353 -0700 @@ -25,7 +25,7 @@ CTOR_TARGETS=$(TOPDIR)lib/crti.o $(TOPDIR)lib/crtn.o SSRC=__longjmp.S vfork.S clone.S setjmp.S bsd-setjmp.S \ - bsd-_setjmp.S sigrestorer.S mmap64.S + bsd-_setjmp.S sigrestorer.S mmap64.S mainglue.S SOBJS=$(patsubst %.S,%.o, $(SSRC)) CSRC=brk.c syscall.c ioperm.c sigaction.c --- uClibc-0.9.27/.pc/thumb-static-main.patch/libc/sysdeps/linux/arm/mainglue.S 2005-08-13 18:20:44.181300825 -0700 +++ uClibc-0.9.27/libc/sysdeps/linux/arm/mainglue.S 2005-08-13 19:11:05.031390937 -0700 @@ -0,0 +1,23 @@ +/* + * Apparently the GNU linker doesn't generate the 'glue' code + * required for ARM/thumb interwork for the 'main' function - + * presumably glibc doesn't need it, but uClibc does. + * + * We can't provide this stuff, because the linker expects to + * have generated the glue code itself and asserts if the code + * is not in memory (because it has been read from a pre-existing + * definition), therefore we must avoid the glue - so we make + * __uClibc_main call __arm_main and define it here (in arm + * code). + */ +#if defined __THUMB_INTERWORK__ + .text + .arm + .global __arm_main + .type __arm_main, %function +__arm_main: + ldr ip, [pc] + bx ip + .word main + .size __arm_main,.-__arm_main +#endif
