Did you check that your /lib/ld-2.8.so (or whatever version of ld it
is) has access/exec rights?

And just to be clear.  I'm sure the answer is "yes" but felt it wouldn't hurt to ask.
Apologies if this information is already clear in the thread.

When you're trying to run ldd and friends (using LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 on the command line),
you do this on the target system, not the build system?

OK , thanks for the confirmation. I did point out this permissions issue 
in another thread nearly a month back. It's a shame you did pick up on 
it. It's odd no one else has flagged it.


bash-4.0#grep -R "install -m 644" *
scripts/build/debug/200-duma.sh:    CT_DoExecLog ALL install -m 644 
${libs} "${CT_SYSROOT_DIR}/usr/lib"

Is the (only) line that needs to be corrected?


regards, Peter.

OK, populate uses "install -m 0644" so that's no wonder the mode is incorrect.

I'll fix that.

[UPDATE:]

I have just rerun ct-ng build and all libs in sys-tools come out with 
555 permissons.

after populate, all copied libs in /lib are 644 ie NO x bit set at all, 
notably:

3384784 -r-xr-xr-x 1 prof users  160750 Jun 10 22:15 ld-2.9.so
3384786 lrwxrwxrwx 1 prof users       9 Jun 10 22:15 ld-linux.so.3 -> 
ld-2.9.so

So it's not finger trouble at my end, it really was like this start with.

Damn! it was that simple.

chmod a+x /lib/ld* fix it. My hello.dyn and gnuplot now work.

I posted quite some time back in another thread that all my libs were 
without x perms and it got no comment. So I assumed that it was normal 
and the it was regarded as a dumb question.

So the question is: why is it installed with the wrong permissions?

I have just rebuild the toolchain and the perms look correct in sys-root.

3317406 -r-xr-xr-x 1 prof users  160750 2009-06-10 01:49 ld-2.9.so
3317408 lrwxrwxrwx 1 prof users       9 2009-06-10 01:49 ld-linux.so.3 
-> ld-2.9.so


However ldd still does not work:
# ldd gnuplot
-sh: ldd: not found
# which ldd
/usr/bin/ldd


I think what may have happened it that , having noted that nothing had x 
in /lib I added it to all libs without noting that ld was (possibly) 
already executable. When I did not get any comment on that I likely 
reverted everything including ld to -x .


I'll do more thorough testing tonight but initial evidence suggests that 
it is fixed.

It would be good to have ldd as a tool but I think that is a differenct 
problem.

It tool a long time to find something so simple but at least I can 
rebuild everything dynamic now.

Many thanks, Peter.

Running a shell script (or any other script type) first imply running a
shell, and that shell will interpret the script.

Hmmm. Sounds like a ld problem. Please run this on the target:
# ls -l /lib/ld*

It should be marked with the 'x' bit.

I'm off to work, will look in more details tonight...

Thanks Yann, Dan,

I did not give more details of the problem because I thought ldd would 
enable me to see where the problem lay. Sadly not. I copied the sys-root 
copy of ldd and it gives me the same silliness as the other commands.

# which ldd
/usr/bin/ldd
# ldd
-sh: ldd: not found
# ls -ail `which ldd`
3273877 -r-xr-xr-x    1 root     root         5583 Jun  8  2009 /usr/bin/ldd

So it's there, it's found by which, but "not found". Clearly this is 
just busybox's challenged error handling spewing garbage. The question 
is how to debug what is really happending.

This error is helpful in itself since it's not even a binary, it's a 
script. Binaries give :

-sh: gnuplot: Permission denied

even though they have x permissions and are being invoked by root.

# which gnuplot
/usr/bin/gnuplot

# `which gnuplot`
-sh: /usr/bin/gnuplot: Permission denied

# ls -ail `which gnuplot`
3272843 -rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root      2074273 Jun  2  2009 
/usr/bin/gnuplot

Following Dan's suggestion got not more information: (unless getting the 
same output with the trace IS more information)
# LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1  gnuplot
-sh: gnuplot: Permission denied



Busybox static works , bb with normal dyn linking : permission denied.



 > If using populate as per your previous posts, what does populate -v says?

Tar bleats about some files in /etc having "improbable" datestamp, circa 
1/1/1970. This does not seem to be an error though. After that it finds 
the expected libs , oopies them , then starts "looping". This just 
reports libs to be already present. This seems to be in order.

LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1  hello.stat
Hello world!

# LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1  hello.dyn
-sh: hello.dyn: Permission denied


So either ld loads but can't link or there is a broken lib...

What's the symptom ?
Do they segfault ?
Can you run a statically linked hello world ? A dynamic one ?
What does it say on the console?
Using glibc or uClibc ?
...

You did not give enough info to diagnose the problem...

> Is there a way to get ldd for the target system out of ct-ng?

Look in the archives, this has already been discussed...

The /problem/ with ldd (the one in glibc, at least) is that it tries to
_run_ the dynamic linker /lib/ld-xxx.so with some environment variables
set, and this will print the libraries it finds _at_runtime_.

Obviously, you don't want to run your ARM dynamic linker on your dev
machine, as this most probably is some kind os x86.

If using populate as per your previous posts, what does populate -v says?

Yann E. MORIN.

RE: how to get target ldd ?

[Dan Wilder]

Maybe nyou can, but LDD is a shell script, and you can grab almost any
old copy of it.

Very likely you can get the same effect on your command using the
command line

LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS=1 your-command-here

which is the heart of ldd.  Don't set LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS on a
command line by itself!

Hi,

I am having problems with a busybox ARM target I have build using ct-ng.

  None of the executables , including busybox, seem to work unless I
build them static.

Unfortunately the rather trimmed down error handling in BB is more of a
distraction than a help in finding where the real problem lies.

Is there a way to get ldd for the target system out of ct-ng?

TIA, Peter.
