These are the GNU binutils. These are utilities of use when dealing with object files. The linker (ld) is in a separate directory, which should be ../ld. Linker-specific notes are in ../ld/README. As of version 2.5, the assembler (as) is also included in this package, in ../gas. Assembler-specific notes can be found in ../gas/README. Recent changes are in ./NEWS, ../ld/NEWS, and ../gas/NEWS. Unpacking and Installation -- quick overview ============================================ When you unpack the binutils-2.9.tar.gz file, you'll get a directory called something like `binutils-2.9', which contains various files and directories. Most of the files in the top directory are for information and for configuration. The actual source code is in subdirectories. To build binutils, you can just do: cd binutils-2.9 ./configure [options] make make install # copies the programs files into /usr/local/bin # by default. This will configure and build all the libraries as well as the assembler, the binutils, and the linker. If you have GNU make, we recommend building in a different directory: mkdir objdir cd objdir ../binutils-2.9/configure [options] make make install This relies on the VPATH feature of GNU make. By default, the binutils will be configured to support the system on which they are built. When doing cross development, use the --target configure option to specify a different target. The --enable-targets option adds support for more binary file formats besides the default. List them as the argument to --enable-targets, separated by commas. For example: ./configure --enable-targets=sun3,rs6000-aix,decstation The name 'all' compiles in support for all valid BFD targets (this was the default in releases before 2.3): ./configure --enable-targets=all You can also specify the --enable-shared option when you run configure. This will build the BFD and opcodes libraries as shared libraries. You can use arguments with the --enable-shared option to indicate that only certain libraries should be built shared; for example, --enable-shared=bfd. The only potential shared libraries in a binutils release are bfd and opcodes. The binutils will be linked against the shared libraries. The build step will attempt to place the correct library in the runtime search path for the binaries. However, in some cases, after you install the binaries, you may have to set an environment variable, normally LD_LIBRARY_PATH, so that the system can find the installed libbfd shared library. To build under openVMS/AXP, see the file makefile.vms in the top level directory. If you don't have ar ==================== If your system does not already have an ar program, the normal binutils build process will not work. In this case, run configure as usual. Before running make, run this script: #!/bin/sh MAKE_PROG="${MAKE-make}" MAKE="${MAKE_PROG} AR=true LINK=true" export MAKE ${MAKE} $* all-libiberty ${MAKE} $* all-intl ${MAKE} $* all-bfd cd binutils MAKE="${MAKE_PROG}" export MAKE ${MAKE} $* ar_DEPENDENCIES= ar_LDADD='../bfd/*.o `cat ../libiberty/required-list ../libiberty/needed-list | sed -e "s,\([^ ][^ ]*\),../libiberty/\1,g"` `if test -f ../intl/gettext.o; then echo '../intl/*.o'; fi`' ar This script will build an ar program in binutils/ar. Move binutils/ar into a directory on your PATH. After doing this, you can run make as usual to build the complete binutils distribution. You do not need the ranlib program in order to build the distribution. Porting ======= Binutils-2.9 supports many different architectures, but there are many more not supported, including some that were supported by earlier versions. We are hoping for volunteers to improve this situation. The major effort in porting binutils to a new host and/or target architecture involves the BFD library. There is some documentation in ../bfd/doc. The file ../gdb/doc/gdbint.texinfo (distributed with gdb-4.x) may also be of help. Reporting bugs ============== Send bug reports and patches to bug-gnu-utils@gnu.org. Always mention the version number you are running; this is printed by running any of the binutils with the --version option. We appreciate reports about bugs, but we do not promise to fix them. VMS === This section was written by Klaus K"ampf <kkaempf@rmi.de>. It describes how to build and install the binutils on openVMS (Alpha and Vax). (The BFD library only supports reading Vax object files.) Compiling the release: To compile the gnu binary utilities and the gnu assembler, you'll need DEC C or GNU C for openVMS/Alpha. You'll need *both* compilers on openVMS/Vax. Compiling with either DEC C or GNU C works on openVMS/Alpha only. Some of the opcodes and binutils files trap a bug in the DEC C optimizer, so these files must be compiled with /noopt. Compiling on openVMS/Vax is a bit complicated, as the bfd library traps a bug in GNU C and the gnu assembler a bug in (my version of) DEC C. I never tried compiling with VAX C. You further need GNU Make Version 3.76 or later. This is available at ftp.progis.de or any GNU archive site. The makefiles assume that gmake starts gnu make as a foreign command. If you're compiling with DEC C or VAX C, you must run $ @setup before starting gnu-make. This isn't needed with GNU C. On the Alpha you can choose the compiler by editing the toplevel makefile.vms. Either select CC=cc (for DEC C) or CC=gcc (for GNU C) Installing the release Provided that your directory setup conforms to the GNU on openVMS standard, you already have a concealed deviced named 'GNU_ROOT'. In this case, a simple $ gmake install suffices to copy all programs and libraries to the proper directories. Define the programs as foreign commands by adding these lines to your login.com: $ gas :== $GNU_ROOT:[bin]as.exe $ size :== $GNU_ROOT:[bin]size.exe $ nm :== $GNU_ROOT:[bin]nm.exe $ objdump :== $GNU_ROOT:[bin]objdump.exe $ strings :== $GNU_ROOT:[bin]strings.exe If you have a different directory setup, copy the binary utilities ([.binutils]size.exe, [.binutils]nm.exe, [.binutils]objdump.exe, and [.binutils]strings.exe) and the gnu assembler and preprocessor ([.gas]as.exe and [.gas]gasp.exe]) to a directory of your choice and define all programs as foreign commands. If you're satiesfied with the compilation, you may want to remove unneeded objects and libraries: $ gmake clean If you have any problems or questions about the binutils on VMS, feel free to mail me at kkaempf@rmi.de.
