问题
I have installed Debian on qemu 64-bit ARM (followed this tutorial)
uname -a
Linux test 4.9.0-7-arm64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.110-1 (2018-07-05) aarch64 GNU/Linux
and I am trying to run 32 bit elf files on it, but some work some don't:
bash: ./file_2: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
running file command on the file that runs, I get:
file_1: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, EABI4 version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped
and the one that does not run:
file_2: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (ARM), statically linked, stripped
and both work on 32bit system(armv7l)
the only difference is that SYSV/ARM version.
is there any work around without recompiling the kernel?(read this post)
回答1:
As the linked post suggests, this requires CONFIG_COMPAT to be enabled in the kernel. On the other hand I would be surprised if your kernel didn't have it -- the Debian 4.9.0-4 kernel I have from doing that tutorial does set CONFIG_COMPAT. You can check whether your kernel has it enabled by looking at the config file for it which will be in /boot/ in the guest. If it's missing then you need a new kernel, and nothing else will help.
However in your case you do have CONFIG_COMPAT, and some executables work. The difference between the ones that work and the ones that don't is that the working ones are EABI, and the non-working ones are OABI. OABI is an old and obsolete ABI for 32-bit Arm Linux binaries (the "O" stands for "old", and it's been a bad choice for a decade or so...) and it is not supported by the 64-bit kernel's CONFIG_COMPAT. You'll need to rebuild those binaries from source as EABI binaries if you want to run them under a 64-bit kernel.
