I am making an linux system following the procedure in lfs. But while i was following the fifth step(i.e. the one before make) on this page, i get an error at the last.
configure: error: linker with -z relro support required
Now after this if i call make i get an error
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
I am running this on a ubuntu 12.04 machine.
How to fix this error?
Do the following:-
sudo apt-get install gawk
and then retry. This worked for me.

I'm trying to implement a custom system call in Ubuntu 20.04.
One of the steps is this command
root#well:/usr/src/linux-5.16.15# sudo make modules_install install
But it gives this error:
arch/x86/Makefile:142: CONFIG_X86_X32 enabled but no binutils support
ln: target '/source' is not a directory
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1477: __modinst_pre] Error 1
make: *** [Makefile:350: __build_one_by_one] Error 2
What should I do to resolve it?
I've been at this for days and any help would be seriously appreciated!
From the definition of CONFIG_X86_X32 option:
you will need a recent binutils (2.22 or later) with elf32_x86_x64 support enabled to compile a kernel with this option set.
This definition can be found at arch/x86/Kconfig file in kernel source code (https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.16.15/source/arch/x86/Kconfig#L2836).
So in order to solve this problem, you can either disable this option or select a distro which supports high version binutils to compile the kernel.
Github page for the OS is here: https://github.com/rellermeyer/course_os
From the wiki in the Github page, it indicates me to install glib and texinfo. It also indicates me how to build the toolchain.
On my first attempt at building, it told me I needed wget and I installed using HomeBrew. When issuing the command $ brew list, I get:
$ brew list
cloog018 glib make postgresql wget
coreutils gmp4 mpfr2 python
gcc48 isl011 openssl readline
gdbm libffi ossp-uuid sqlite
gettext libmpc08 pkg-config texinfo
Which shows me I have everything I need. However, on the second attempt it gives me an error:
configure: WARNING: you should use --build, --host, --target
configure: WARNING: invalid host type: Systems/course_os/toolchain/arm-none-eabi
checking build system type... Invalid configuration `Systems/course_os/toolchain/arm-none-eabi': machine `Systems/course_os/toolchain/arm-none' not recognized
configure: error: /bin/sh ../../src/gcc-4.8.1/config.sub Systems/course_os/toolchain/arm-none-eabi failed
I don't understand the warning and what it is it's missing. Additionally, when I try to do the same steps with Ubuntu, it runs perfectly and I'm able to go on to building the kernel and run Hello World. What does Ubuntu have that OSX doesn't that makes the OS run? Could it be an issue with gcc?
Note: I'm running OSX Yosemite 10.10 and Ubuntu 14.04.
I found an answer to my problem. There was an issue with one of my target folders being two words. I changed it from Operating System to OS and it ran perfectly. Thanks!
I am trying to install QODBC drivers on ubuntu 13.10 for Qt 5.0.2. I have followed the official documentation (see http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/sql-driver.html#qodbc) but am stuck at one of the steps. When I try to do
qmake "INCLUDEPATH+=/usr/local/unixODBC/include" "LIBS+=-L/usr/local/unixODBC/lib -lodbc"
it just shows me the help manual for qmake and does nothing.
So I tried to make an empty Makefile and then passed it as an argument
qmake "INCLUDEPATH+=/usr/local/unixODBC/include" "LIBS+=-L/usr/local/unixODBC/lib -lodbc" Makefile
when I try to "make" the generated Makefile, it shows the following errors:
Makefile:183: warning: overriding commands for target `Makefile'
Makefile:130: warning: ignoring old commands for target `Makefile'
make: Circular Makefile <- Makefile dependency dropped.
make: Circular Makefile <- Makefile dependency dropped.
make: Nothing to be done for `first'.
I have just managed to make the odbc driver installation. The main problem here seems to be that you are not including the "pro" target file.
Here all the steps are:
Go to odbc pluggin path. In my case: cd ~/Qt/5.3/Src/qtbase/src/plugins/sqldrivers/odbc
Run qmake including the target LIB paths and also the pro file:
~/Qt/5.3/gcc_64/bin/qmake -makefile "INCLUDEPATH+=/usr/local/include" "LIBS+=-L/usr/local/lib -lodbc" odbc.pro
make and then sudo make install
I hope it will be usefull.

I'm trying to install glibc to debug a C-framework I'm working on. But, I'm getting an error in the build process. Here's the error msg:

Is this a known problem?
I had built glibc on the same machine earlier last week without any errors. I'm rebuilding it because glibc is compiled with optimization level 2(-O2) by default and I'm unable to look into the values of a few variables inside the library functions from the code dump as they've been optimized out. I'm currently trying to compile with optimization level 1.
Thanks
It looks like you are trying to make install, without first doing a successful make all.
This is for the benefit of anyone who might be trying to build glibc on their ubuntu box.
I went through the following problems and resolved them the following way.
These problems were encountered in ubuntu 12.04
I created a directory glib-build on the same level as the glib-VERSION and ran the following command
$> ../glibc-2.16.0/configure --prefix=/home/gugovind/tsapp/glibc/glibc-build/
that gave me the following error that makeinfo is missing.
for that
$>sudo apt-get install texinfo
will resolve the problem.
It threw and error about LD_LIBRARY_PATH having the current directory (even if it does not exist)
for that run the following in your command prompt
$>set LD_LIBRARY_PATH
this will clear the LD_LIBRARY_PATH only for that console temporarily. Then run the configure again.
You might encounter another problem with configure..
"function strtonum never defined"
look at the config.log file and it might be missing mawk or gawk. install them using
sudo apt-get install gawk
This should get you through the configure part.
now run
make all
if in case you encounter a particular file not compiling.. just copy the gcc ... before that and paste it in the command prompt again after you have cd to that directory (the command lines before the error should tell you where to go.)
make install
You might get a warning about not able to find etc/ld.config... file. ignore that..
you are all set now.
I already did ash.exe /bin/rebaseall -v without errors but I still get the following error when trying to ./configure:
Checking for program g++ or c++ : /usr/bin/g++
/node/wscript:232: error: could not configure a cxx compiler
I installed gcc4-g++ 4.5.x, openssl and all the needed dependencies.
Are you carefully following the steps from: github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Building-node.js-on-Cygwin-(Windows) ?
It suggests running another command and then rebooting after rebase.
