Fixup applied to unknown instruction

[devshlom]

I got this problem (same as in thread http://forums11.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?admit=109447626+1245650276359+28353475&threadId=1247597) but I installed the suggested pathced and it didn't help.
What can cause this weird problem?

Hi Devshalom,

Is this PA-RISC or Itanium?

A bad linker or compiler or corrupted object file.

>Vivek: Is this PA-RISC or Itanium?

The other thread was for PA only.

I suppose it could also happen if you are using a foreign devil compiler. You mention gcc in some of your other threads.

[Laurent Menase]

do you recompile all your application from source or are you using some libs you get from somewhere else?


did you try -t option of ld to know exactly on what file you get that error
if you compile with cc use -Wl,-t option.
How do you generate the .o which will fail to be linked?

There is no need for that, the linker error points right at the object and the bad fixup.
You could use "odump -sub -fix -verbose 1 object-file"
