I meet a problem of Debian’s cross toolchain, and I guess it should be an upstream bug.[1]
It happens for gcc-7/gcc-8 in Debian Sid/Buster, while not for gcc-6 in stretch.
1. Install Debian testing/sid env on amd64
2. apt-get install gcc-8-mips64el-linux-gnuabi64 gcc-8-mips64-linux-gnuabi64 gcc-8-mips-linux-gnu
These bellow cmd will show:
munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer
Aborted
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -c -mabi=32 -xc -
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -B/non_exists/ -c -mabi=32 -xc -
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -B/usr/share -c -mabi=32 -xc -
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -EB -c -mabi=32 -xc -
These bellow cmd works well
# for both n32 or 64 abi, it works well
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -c -mabi=n32 -xc -
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -c -mabi=64 -xc -
# -B a path which contains MIPS cross assembler
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -B/usr/mips64el-linux-gnuabi64/bin/ -c -mabi=32 -xc -
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64el-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -B/usr/bin/ -c -mabi=32 -xc -
# none mips64el-linux-gnuabi64 toolchains works well.
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -c -mabi=32 -xc -
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mips64-linux-gnuabi64-gcc-8 -EL -c -mabi=32 -xc -
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc-8 -c -mabi=64 -xc -
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc-8 -c -mabi=n32 -xc -
$ echo "int a(){ return 1; }" | mipsel-linux-gnu-gcc-8 -c -mabi=32 -xc -
With some debug, this problem is triggered in gcc/gcc.c
