             Bug #: 14448
           Summary: AVR - BFD_RELOC_32 (4bytes) is written as 2 bytes
           Product: binutils
           Version: 2.20
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gas
        AssignedTo: address@hidden
        ReportedBy: address@hidden
    Classification: Unclassified


Hello, 

I have problem to debug large avr programs (tinyos/nescc generate one large
source file that is passed throught avr-gcc to avr-as). The debug information
are getting corrupted if any generated section in elf is larger than 64kB.

Example errors: 
- avr-gdb cannot find source line
- "avr-objdump -Wl" / "avr-readelf -wl" outputs "Warning: The information in
section .debug_line appears to be corrupt - the section is too small"

I debugged avr-as. All relloc/fixup are correctly computed in BFD_RELOC_32
format (traced with DEBUG5 in gas/write.c) but there is written only first 2
bytes :-(

I am not expert in code generation.
