Hi,

The program 'stdbuf' on bi-arch x86 / x86_64 systems cannot work on all kin=
ds
of programs.

I'm using 'stdbuf' from coreutils-8.12 on a glibc x86 / x86_64 system.

The binary built for x86 cannot be called on x86_64 programs:

  $ /arch/x86-linux/gnu/bin/stdbuf -o 0 /bin/pwd
  ERROR: ld.so: object '/arch/x86-linux/gnu/lib/coreutils/libstdbuf.so' fro=
m LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
  /home/bruno

The binary built for x86_64 cannot be called on x86 programs:

  $ /arch/x86_64-linux/gnu/bin/stdbuf -o 0 /arch/x86-linux/gnu/bin/pwd
  ERROR: ld.so: object '/arch/x86_64-linux/gnu/lib64/coreutils/libstdbuf.so=
' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded: ignored.
  /home/bruno

I would like to have a single binary that works on both x86 and x86_64 prog=
rams.

Hmm, I haven't look at this, but it seems like
if stdbuf sets both LD_PRELOAD_32 and LD_PRELOAD_64 to the
appropriate libstdbuf.so, it should just work.
However these libs would be in separate builds so
I need to look into, how best to support this.

cheers,
Pádraig.

It's been more than 7 years since last comments/progress on this issue.
Is it still relevant / needed ?

If no one replies, I'll close it as "wontfix" in a few days.

Yes, it is still relevant:

  * Bi-arch systems are still frequent. Large packages are still often
    provided as 32-bit binaries, from some vendors.

  * The behaviour of stdbuf in coreutils-8.30 is still the same:

    $ /arch/x86-linux/gnu/bin/stdbuf -o 0 /bin/pwd
    ERROR: ld.so: object '/arch/x86-linux/gnu/libexec/coreutils/libstdbuf.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.
    /home/bruno

    $ /arch/x86_64-linux/gnu/bin/stdbuf -o 0 /arch/x86-linux/gnu/bin/pwd
    ERROR: ld.so: object '/arch/x86_64-linux/gnu/libexec/coreutils/libstdbuf.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64): ignored.
    /home/bruno

  * The distributor (Ubuntu 16.04 in my case) has not fixed the problem either:

    $ /usr/bin/stdbuf --version
    stdbuf (GNU coreutils) 8.25
    ...

    $ /usr/bin/stdbuf -o 0 /arch/x86-linux/gnu/bin/pwd
    ERROR: ld.so: object '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/coreutils/libstdbuf.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64): ignored.
