I'm trying to compile a program that works on Solaris with gcc, but won't complile under Linux (either FC5 or Gentoo). It seems to be because writing int errno; works under Solaris gcc-3.4.3 (well, it passes the compiler anyway), but under Linux gcc-3.4.6 or -4.1.0 one has to #include <errno.h> which makes more sense. I would just make the change, but I'm baffled by the error message Linux gcc gives to the first declaration. It reads:
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: errno: TLS definition in /lib/libc.so.6 section .tbss mismatches non-TLS reference in /tmp/cc6urgct.o /lib/libc.so.6: could not read symbols: Bad value But when I try to look up TLS, all I get is a bunch of stuff about a server-to-server email security protocol. What is it talking about here, and where can I find out about it? ++ kevin -- Kevin O'Gorman, PhD -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
