Error description

  • Debug stabstrings generated with the -g compiler option are
    using a stab type that has not yet been defined.  This is
    causing the -bstabcmpct:2 linker option to encounter an error
    while interpreting the stabstrings:
    
    
    ld: 0711-393 STABSTRING ERROR: Symbol table entry 22, object
    file /home/test.o
    A stabstring refers to type 13, which is not defined.
    
    
    Using the 'dump -t test.o' utility shows:
    
    [22] m 0x00000000 -2 0 0x8c 0x0000 :t14=ar0;1;3;13
    
    , where the '13' is a type that has not yet been defined.  The
    missing type is related to declaring an array using a
    passed subroutine parameter, i.e.
    
    
          SUBROUTINE TEST1(VAR1,VAR2)
          INTEGER*2 VAR1,VAR2(3,VAR1)
    

Local fix

Problem summary

  • PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
    The linker stabstring compact feature encounters an issue with
    improper forward references for arrays with variable bound.
    
    USERS AFFECTED:
    Users of -g and -bstabcmpct:2
    

Problem conclusion

  • The generation of stabstrings for variable bound arrays was
    corrected.
    

Temporary fix
