QA issue - ELF binary has relocations in .text

ajithpv · December 6, 2019, 7:44am

Hi,

When I’m doing the fresh Yocto build, I’m getting the below warning:

WARNING: mender-2.0.0-r0 do_package_qa: QA Issue: ELF binary ‘<build_dir>/tmp/work/aarch64-poky-linux/mender/2.0.0-r0/packages-split/mender/usr/bin/mender’ has relocations in .text [textrel]

I would like to know whether anyone has faced this similar warning during the build. Also, I would like to know how to avoid this warning.

Looking forward to your reply.
Thank you in advance,
Ajith P V

Are you building with a custom recipe? This check is already disabled in the official recipe.

Thank you for your reply.

I’m using the sumo branch and see that this changes are not present:

mendersoftware/meta-mender/blob/sumo/meta-mender-core/recipes-mender/mender/mender.inc#L39


                /data/mender/device_type \
                ${sysconfdir}/udev/mount.blacklist.d/mender \
               "


SRC_URI_append_mender-image_mender-systemd = " file://mender-data-dir.service"
FILES_${PN}_append_mender-image_mender-systemd = " ${systemd_unitdir}/system/mender-data-dir.service \
                                                   ${systemd_unitdir}/system/mender.service.wants/mender-data-dir.service"


# Go binaries produce unexpected effects that the Yocto QA mechanism doesn't
# like. We disable those checks here.
INSANE_SKIP_${PN} = "ldflags"


GO_IMPORT = "github.com/mendersoftware/mender"


PACKAGECONFIG_append = "${@bb.utils.contains('DISTRO_FEATURES', 'mender-install', ' mender-install', '', d)}"
PACKAGECONFIG_append = "${@bb.utils.contains('DISTRO_FEATURES', 'mender-uboot', ' u-boot', '', d)}"
PACKAGECONFIG_append = "${@bb.utils.contains('DISTRO_FEATURES', 'mender-grub', ' grub', '', d)}"


PACKAGECONFIG[mender-install] = ",,,mender-artifact-info ca-certificates"
PACKAGECONFIG[u-boot] = ",,,u-boot-fw-utils"
PACKAGECONFIG[grub] = ",,,grub-editenv grub-mender-grubenv"

I believe it should be present in all the branches

I see. We would very much like a pull request to fix that!
