I got the binutils (1.94-beta) to compile as a cross compiler for 680x0 platforms. Here is my configuration line: configure -target=m68k-sony-bsd mips-dec-ultrix4.2 I also have gas configured as as68, or the 68000 assembler... So, I now can ask my questions: 1) Are there any docs on the assembly syntax used by gas? I was told by someone that it is a pseudo-mit syntax.... I'm not familiar with the mit format however... 2) Are there docs on the object format that gas/gld produce... it is possible to get header structs, etc, from the gld source, but it isn't exactly clear what's going on there.... 3) gld -r obj1 obj2 obj3 is supposed to keep the relocation info, right? Is it supposed to even though all the references resolve? I don't seem to be getting any relocation info... 4) On UNIX systems, do all programs get compiled to run at one address, whereafter memory mapping/hardware stuff is used to do the translation as opposed to the loader? If so, what affects the decision on what that address is? does it matter? Thanks in advance ... -- Niko Schuessler Project Vincent Systems Manager email: niko@iastate.edu Iowa State University Computation Center voice: (515) 294-1672 Ames IA 50010 snail: 272 Durham
