Hi, I have another thought about this issue, it's actually caused by different working environment for the same file. For kern/dl.c, there are three modes:
1. Target mode When it's used in boot environment, it's in target mode, for example, i386. 2. Host mode When it's used in tools like grub-emu, it's in host mode, for example, x86_64. 3. Cross mode When it's used in grub-mkimage, it's in cross mode. It runs in x86_64, but produce image that will be used in i386. For these three modes, we have only one controlling macro, GRUB_UTIL, so it can't cover all cases. To solve this, we can either: a. Add new macro, for example GRUB_CROSS or GRUB_MKIMAGE. or b. Drop one of the usage. But actually, host mode is not useful, we can't load external modules in grub-emu, so support 1 and 3 is enough. BTW, kern/dl.c has issue as well. For example, grub_dl_resolve_symbol returns void*. It should be Elf_Addr, so that it can expand to the correct type according to GRUB_TARGET_SIZEOF_VOID_P. -- Bean _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
