Hello colleagues.

 

I came across following compilation error (linker error) during compilation of simple Xmega16E5 project:

 

make all 
'Building target: SpectrumDFT.elf'
'Invoking: AVR C Linker'
avr-gcc -Wl,-Map,SpectrumDFT.map -mmcu=atxmega32e5 -o "SpectrumDFT.elf"  ./SSD1309/ssd1309.o  ./FONTS/fonts.o  ./main.o   
c:/program files/atmel/avr tools/avr toolchain/bin/../lib/gcc/avr/4.7.2/../../../../avr/lib/avrxmega2\libc.a(fp_powsodd.o):/data2/home/toolsbuild/jenkins-knuth/workspace/avr8-gnu-toolchain/src/avr-libc/libm/fplib/fp_powsodd.S:59:(.text.avr-libc.fplib+0x10): relocation truncated to fit: R_AVR_13_PCREL against symbol `__mulsf3' defined in .text section in c:/program files/atmel/avr tools/avr toolchain/bin/../lib/gcc/avr/4.7.2/avrxmega2\libgcc.a(_mul_sf.o)
c:/program files/atmel/avr tools/avr toolchain/bin/../lib/gcc/avr/4.7.2/../../../../avr/lib/avrxmega2\libc.a(fp_powsodd.o):/data2/home/toolsbuild/jenkins-knuth/workspace/avr8-gnu-toolchain/src/avr-libc/libm/fplib/fp_powsodd.S:69:(.text.avr-libc.fplib+0x20): relocation truncated to fit: R_AVR_13_PCREL against symbol `__mulsf3' defined in .text section in c:/program files/atmel/avr tools/avr toolchain/bin/../lib/gcc/avr/4.7.2/avrxmega2\libgcc.a(_mul_sf.o)
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [SpectrumDFT.elf] Błąd 1

 

It seems to be correlated with cos (cosinus) function used as follows:

 

for(uint8_t i=0; i<100; ++i) Twiddle[i] = (int16_t) ((1 << 6)*cos(i*PI2/100));

 

Could anybody help? robiw

This topic has a solution.

Your avr-libc is old, bug #33698 has been fixed in 2015.
.
Apart from that your compiler is misconfigured: it should be configured with --with-avrlibc=yes which is obviously not the case. That option is the default in v4.8 and newer, but it must be set for 4.7.2 in conjunction with avr-libc. See GCC PR54461 and GCC 4.7 Release Notes.
.
You can remove that function from libgcc.a with the help of Binutils, same for any other float function.

avrfreaks does not support Opera. Profile inactive.

Hi,

Thank you for your fast and accurate answer. I use Eclipse with AVR plugin so I should install newer toolchain. Where should I search for this toolchain? robiw

I used the toolchain from the new Atmel Studio 7 and the problems disappeared. It is a pity that it is not available as stand-alone software... robiw

A low quality Windows 10 update?

I updated Windows (1909) and add Atmel folder to exclusions. Now, compilation is very fast. Thank you for the support...robiw
