Hello, The following patch is causing trouble on sparc-solaris: > 2009-07-08 Hui Zhu > > * solib.c (solib_bfd_open): Output a warning if solib's > architecture is not compatible with inferior's architecture. I now see: (gdb) run Starting program: /[...]/sparc64/ex/task_switch warning: `/usr/platform/SUNW,Sun-Fire-V440/lib/sparcv9/libc_psr.so.1': Shared library architecture sparc:v9a is not compatible with target architecture sparc:v9. > + if (b->compatible (b, bfd_get_arch_info (abfd)) != b) In my case, b->compatible is bfd_default_compatible. the architecture is set to sparc:v9, and the shared library's architecture is sparc:v9a. The problem is that b->compatible is returning the architecture that is "more featureful" of the two, which in this case is sparc:v9a. As a result, we emit the warning. Looks to me like the check is too aggressive and should be changed to == 0. Would that be correct? 2009-09-16 Joel Brobecker * solib.c (solib_bfd_open): Relax a bit the compatibility check. Tested on sparc64-solaris. -- Joel
