Bug ID: 23881 Summary: pdp11 binutils fails if too much debug data Product: binutils Version: 2.31 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: binutils Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org Reporter: pkoning at equallogic dot com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 11390 --> https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=11390&action=edit test file full of .stabs data For pdp11, the linker is happy to generate outputs with many kB of debug data, but beyond a certain point such files are not readable in nm or objdump. To reproduce, assemble the two attached files and link as: pdp11-aout-ld testdbg.o testdbg.o testdbg.o testdbg.o maindbg.o Then objdump fails this way: pdp11-aout-objdump -t a.out a.out: file format a.out-pdp11 /usr/local/pdp11-aout/bin/pdp11-aout-objdump: failed to read symbol table from: a.out /usr/local/pdp11-aout/bin/pdp11-aout-objdump: error message was: file in wrong format If I link testdbg.o just once or twice, objdump works fine. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
