[Bug target/28904] operand out of range on Linux/PowerPC

Tue Sep 5 22:51:00 GMT 2006


------- Comment #3 from amodra at bigpond dot net dot au  2006-09-05 22:50 -------
This is a limitation of the -fPIC implementation used on powerpc-linux.  You
get a maximum of 64K bytes of GOT entries per function (ie. 16K entries). 
-fpic is even more limited, with only 64K bytes of GOT for the entire
executable.  (-fpic used to be 32k for the entire executable until the linker
was enhanced.)
