[Bug c/41567] New: Too small .bss stack

Hi,

With gcc 4.3.4 from debian unstable build with the following command line :

Configured with: ../src/configure -v --with-pkgversion='Debian 4.3.4-3'
--with-bugurl=file:///usr/share/doc/gcc-4.3/README.Bugs
--enable-languages=c,c++,fortran,objc,obj-c++ --prefix=/usr --enable-shared
--enable-multiarch --enable-linker-build-id --with-system-zlib

--enable-nls --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/include/c++/4.3 --program-suffix=-4.3

--disable-libssp --with-system-libunwind --enable-checking=release
--build=ia64-linux-gnu --host=ia64-linux-gnu --target=ia64-linux-gnu

We are unable to build mplayer since June 2009.

The error message :

gcc is 4.4.1 and not 4.3.4
You can find more compilation logs here (near the bottom). Click on (stderr)
link to see error messages.

http://fate.multimedia.cx/

Also mplayer doesn't build with gcc 4.1.3, 4.2.4 and 4.3.4 with the same error.

triggered this error (r18553):

I tried (and failed) to reproduce this using msmpeg4.i and compiling with:

gcc -shared -pthread -std=c99 -fomit-frame-pointer -g -O3 -fno-math-errno
-fno-signed-zeros -fPIC -fno-tree-vectorize msmpeg4.i -o x.so

I tried ToT, 4.4 and 4.3 GCC compilers and was unable to reproduce the bug.

I wonder if it only happens when linking in all the objects together.

I also wonder what linker you were using, I was using the latest 2.20 linker.

I thought the report and log was clear enough on the fact that this is
indeed a problem that only arises during the final link. If not, then
now it is ;)

 ld --version
GNU ld (GNU Binutils for Debian) 2.20

I guess the point I was trying to make is that I don't think it is possible to
reproduce this by just compiling and linking msmpeg4.i.  I think it is
necessary to have all the objects that are being linked into the final library
in order to get the error.

------- Comment #10 from sje at cup dot hp dot com  2009-10-30 21:54 -------
I am not sure if this would help or not but it might be interesting to try the
-mno-sdata flag on the compilation to see if that helps.  By default GCC on
IA64 will use .sbss (short bss) and .bss (normal bss) sections.  -mno-sdata
will turn off the use of .sbss.

------- Comment #11 from mans at mansr dot com  2009-10-31 12:28 -------
Adding -mno-sdata does not help.  Note that the error messages are always
referring to .bss, never to .sbss.

Removing -Bsymbolic caused many more of those messages.

This is a linker bug.  Recompiling without -g, so as to get error messages
without the unhelpful symbolic interpretation, I can reproduce

msmpeg4.c:(.text.unlikely+0xbe2): relocation truncated to fit: GPREL22 against
`.bss'
msmpeg4.c:(.text.unlikely+0xc80): relocation truncated to fit: GPREL22 against
`.bss'

Matching these offsets up with the object file, we see

000000000be2  000400000086 R_IA64_LTOFF22X   0000000000000000 .bss + 29658
000000000c80  000400000086 R_IA64_LTOFF22X   0000000000000000 .bss + 2a560

Notice these are *not* GPREL22 relocations, but LTOFF22X relocations.
These LTOFF22X relocations are supposed to be relaxed to GPREL22
relocations by the linker, but ONLY IF the address is in range; otherwise
they are to be interpreted as LTOFF22 relocations which store the full
address in the GOT.

Unfortunately, the ia64 linker doesn't implement --no-relax, like other
targets do, so it's not easy to work around this bug.  Also, it would be
extremely helpful if there was a linker switch that disabled symbolic
interpretation of section+offset.  I spent a lot of time looking at the
wrong addresses...

I've created

 http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=10955

to track this problem.  You'll need to create new bugzilla accounts on
the sourceware system in order to get CC'd.

Closing this as not-a-gcc-bug.
