Hi,
I am using ARM DS-5 version 5.29.1 and trying to develop a baremetal Position Independent Executable project for Cortex-A72.But most pic/pid compiler option and linker option dose not support for arch64,I do not know where can I find related documents and example.
Thanks
HiThere's a tutorial and example for DS-5 and PIE for AArch64 at:https://community.arm.com/developer/tools-software/tools/b/tools-software-ides-blog/posts/easy-as-pie----creating-bare-metal-position-independent-executables-with-arm-compiler-6Please can you try that?Stephen
HI:
Thanks for your reply,but the above https link refer to PIE for arch32,however I need some example for arch64. Arm ® Compiler Version 6.13 Reference Guide says it does not support for aarch64 (" B1.7 -fbare-metal-pie: Note: • This option is unsupported for AArch64 state.• The bare-metal PIE feature is deprecated").Can you help me for another example for aarch64?Thanks.
Best Regard!
Hi again,Sorry, my mistake, you are right, "-fbare-metal-pie" won't work for you.However, recent versions of Arm Compiler 6 now support "-fpic" for AArch64:developer.arm.com/.../-fpic---fno-picYou'll need Arm Compiler 6.13 or later - unfortunately, the Arm Compiler 6.10.1 that comes with DS-5 v5.29.1 is too old.DS-5 has been superseded by Arm Development Studio. Arm DS 2020.0 comes with Arm Compiler 6.14.You can download a free 30-day evaluation of Arm DS from https://developer.arm.com/tools-and-software/embedded/arm-development-studioHope this helps
