RE: build u-boot failed with config CONFIG_ARMV8_PSCI by aarch linux gcc 8.1

[Li, Meng]

Hi All,

 

Could you please help to have a look whether below issue is valuable?

 

I got u-boot source code from https://github.com/u-boot/u-boot.git, branch is master.

I got toolchain from https://mirrors.edge.kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/x86_64/8.1.0/

 

I built stratix10(socfpga) platform with below commands:

export CROSS_COMPILE=xxx/gcc-8.1.0-nolibc/aarch64-linux/bin/aarch64-linux-

export ARCH=arm64

make mrproper

make socfpga_stratix10_defconfig

make menuconfig, and then enable CONFIG_ARMV8_PSCI

make

 

there will be below error:

I found out this build error is caused by enable CONFIG_ARMV8_PSCI.

 

In additional, I found this issue is caused by below 2 commits

279b2f94168ee91e02ccd070d27c983fc001fe12(“[PR22764][LD][AARCH64]Allow R_AARCH64_ABS16 and R_AARCH64_ABS32 against absolution symbol or undefine symbol in shared object.”)

79e741920446582bd0e09f3e2b9f899c258efa56(“[BFD][AARCH64]Disallow R_AARCH64_ABS32(LP64) & R_AARCH64_ABS16 in const section of shared object.”)

 

Could you please tell me whether you also encountered this issue before?

 

I try lower version GCC toolchain, it works fine.

 

Thanks,

Limeng
