Component/s: Toolchain
When I tried to compile grub-efi for intel-atom-baytrail-64, I met a error as the following:
| atom64-wrswrap-linux-gnu-objcopy -j .text -j .sdata -j .data -j .dynamic -j .dynsym -j .rel \
| -j .rela -j .reloc --target=efi-app-x86_64 grub.so grub.efi
| /build-baytrail-64/bitbake_build/tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/toolchain/i686-wrs-linux-gnu-objcopy:grub.so: Invalid bfd target
| make[2]: *** [grub.efi] Error 1
It seems the --target=efi-app-x86-64 is not supported. Is this a toolchain issue?
In intel-atom-baytrail, this is -target=efi-app-ia32, there is no problem.
I have tried to change the target to elf64-X86-64", we could get the grub-efi binary file, but it could not recognized and loaded by UEFI.
| atom64-wrswrap-linux-gnu-objcopy -j .text -j .sdata -j .data -j .dynamic -j .dynsym -j .rel \
| -j .rela -j .reloc --target=efi-app-x86_64 grub.so grub.efi
Failed, but with:
objcopy -j .text -j .sdata -j .data -j .dynamic -j .dynsym -j .rel -j .rela -j .reloc --target=efi-app-x86_64 grub.so grub.efi
It's OK. My objcopy is provided by Ubuntu 10.04:
