AM3352 Linux cross compile problem

Patrick Loef1

Hello,

I using the SDK 07.00.00.00 and would like to cross compile a library.

When I did configure the source for cross compile with the TI sdk and then enter the make command, everything looks okay, but at the last moment the following error come forward:

logs.o: relocation R_ARM_MOV_ABS_NC agianst 'a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

logs.o: could not read symbol: Bad value

When i compile the source with another cross compiler(like for a mips processor) everything goes okay, what could be the problem?

Kind regards

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

This is gcc specific. Please read the gcc manual page. The -fpic flag is used to generate position independent code, suitable for use in shared object files.

Best regards,
Miroslav

Hi Patrick,

What package are you cross compiling ?

1) Try to add/append the below line in Makefile.

CXXFLAGS += -fPIC

2) Enable the "shared" option while you are configuring the source

./configure --enable-shared .......

Thanks for the information.

In the ./configure I had the possibility to add the following option: --enable-pic

This was the trick and now the compiling workts correctly, also as a shared library.
