Bug ID: 15534 Summary: ld breaks malloc when -fPIE -pie is used on solaris sparcs Product: binutils Version: 2.23 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ld Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: jullien at eligis dot com using pie on solaris 10 sparc breaks malloc (malloc returns 0 NOMEM): Using gcc 4.8 and all recent gnu tools compiled with: ../configure \ --with-gnu-as --with-as=/usr/local/bin/as \ --with-gnu-ld --with-ld=/usr/local/bin/ld \ --enable-shared \ --disable-nls \ --enable-languages=c,c++ on good old UltraSparc 10 having 512Mb of mem gives me a malloc error using this simple test: #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> int main() { printf("malloc %p\n", malloc(100)); } $ gcc -o foo -fPIE -pie foo.c && ./foo malloc 0 $ gcc -o foo foo.c && ./foo malloc 20918 Standard solaris ld, silently ignores pie request and program works well. Two acceptable solutions I see: - raise an error, "ld does not support pie on this architecture" - silently ignore pie as does solaris sparc ld You can read http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=57409 which is related to this issue.
