Hey Michael,

attached is the complete output from make and the readelf command you mentioned.

From the readelf output:

[Requesting program interpreter: /usr/lib/ld.so.1]

If this file isn't present on target system, this is a sign that you are
trying to use a toolchain for a (slightly) different target.  The best
thing you can do is to sort out this incompatibility.

Alternately, you could path Base to remove references to "-Wl,-Bdynamic",
which would result in a fully static executable (with the limitations
which this implies).

/usr/bin/g++ -o antelope -static -L/epics/base/lib/linux-arm -Wl,-rpath,/epics/base/lib/linux-arm          -rdynamic         closure.o error.o lalr.o lr0.o antelope.o mkpar.o output.o reader.o skeleton.o symtab.o verbose.o warshall.o     -Wl,-Bdynamic  -lpthread   -lreadline -lm -lrt -ldl -lgcc

However, you may later encounter strange linker errors and/or crashes
if object code from different, somewhat incompatible, toolchains are
being linked together.  So I would encourage you to investigate the
toolchain(s) first.

Cheers,
Florian

Hey all,

we use docker images to easily deploy our IOCs for our detector control system.
The images are build for amd64, arm64/aarch64 and armv7.

To reduce the size of those images, I recently switched from dynamic to static linking by adding the line
 >      && echo "STATIC_BUILD=YES" >> configure/CONFIG_SITE.local \
to our Dockerfile.

When compiling base7 for amd64 and aarch64 this is working just fine, but I get an error on arm/v7:

#0 189.7 Installing created executable /epics/base/bin/linux-arm/antelope
#0 190.1 /epics/base/bin/linux-arm/antelope -bparse -l -d ../flex/parse.y
#0 190.1 /usr/lib/ld.so.1: No such file or directory
#0 198.7 Expanding ../libComVersion.h@ to ../O.Common/libComVersion.h

I investigated the issue a bit closer and found the following:

root@195e454a8580:/epics/src/base# ldd /epics/base/bin/linux-arm/antelope
  linux-vdso.so.1 (0x7ef10000)
  libc.so.6 => /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libc.so.6 (0x76e71000)
  /usr/lib/ld.so.1 => /lib/ld-linux-armhf.so.3 (0x76f70000)

It looks like "STATIC_BUILD=YES" was ignored.

root@195e454a8580:/epics/src/base# ls /usr/lib/ld.so.1
ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/ld.so.1': No such file or directory

For some reason antelope gets linked against /usr/lib/ld.so.1 on armv7 but this file does not exist.
Does anyone know what causes this issue?

It would help if you could attach, or post somewhat, the complete
output of a clean 'make'.

Also the output of:

readelf -aW /epics/base/bin/linux-arm/antelope

Cheers,
Florian
