未记录的链接器问题:"ld returned 253 exit status"

Undocumented linker issue: "ld returned 253 exit status"

我收到一条错误消息,找不到任何相关信息。在哪里可以找到有关 ld 的 253 退出状态的信息?

我到处都找不到任何东西。 Google 上只有一个提及,而且似乎与任何解决方案都无关。

错误信息:

collect2.exe: error: ld returned 253 exit status

使用 linker 和编译器的详细输出,没有其他警告或错误甚至与上述内容模糊相关。

尝试查找问题

这个错误在某种程度上与程序大小有关,但程序还没有达到系统闪存大小,所以我有点困惑。

如果我运行size,结果如下(设备限制为64KB):

text    data     bss     dec
45608     396    6200   52204

当我将设备内存大小增加到 128K 时,没有任何变化,相同的消息...

但是,如果我将代码大小减少到大约 54 KB 以下,程序可以编译,并且删除哪个代码都没有关系。

如果我再添加一点代码,二进制文件的大小应该只会增加几百字节。但是,当我这样做时,linker 因上述错误而失败。

查看objcopy生成的二进制文件,内存中有很大的空闲区域;内存肯定没有满。 linker 文件已附加,但我不明白它们是如何导致我的问题的:

Link 已删除,以便在问题中包含 linker 文件。

更新

问题仍然存在,但我注意到在生成的地图文件中它似乎停在模板对象的中间。就好像 linker 只是抛出一些异常并中止。它停止的那一行是非常繁重的模板代码,但它确实实例化了它崩溃的确切事物的实例(或者至少是相似的对象,唯一的区别是捕获的 lambda 类型。它们始终是按照标准的唯一类型) .

映射文件中的最后一项位于 0x080008CE,并且因为闪存从地址 0x08000000 开始,这实际上是 0x08CE,它离闪存末尾不远。

错误的原因是在 Libiberty 的实现中使用了 VLA。 VLA 是放置在堆栈上的数据结构,当程序具有大量符号时,它会突破应用程序的堆栈限制。在 Libiberty 中有一个允许避免 VLA 的标志,结果是使用 alloca。这个分配发生在栈上,也出现同样的问题。

GCC 7.2 生成的符号信息比 GCC 8.2 多得多。

解决方案有三个:

  1. 在 Linux 上,使用 ulimit -s unlimited 并从同一终端 window 启动 GCC 7.2。 ulimit 仅影响子进程。
  2. 在 Windows 上,重新编译 GCC ld.exe,为 Windows 使用不同的堆栈大小。 editbin 在 ld.exe 上无法正常工作。
  3. Windows/Linux:升级到 GCC 8.2。此版本的编译器对符号的处理要好得多,在这种情况下问题会自行解决。

Tamar Christina 在 Libiberty 中提出了这个问题,我怀疑,就像 Linux 内核一样,VLA 将从实现中删除。
