Hi Vineet, it seems static linking is totally broken for ARC and uClibc-ng: file root_nsim-arcv2_uclibc-ng_archs/bin/busybox root_nsim-arcv2_uclibc-ng_archs/bin/busybox: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, *unknown arch 0xc3* version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter *empty*, for GNU/Linux 4.8.0, stripped I am using arc-2016.09-release within OpenADK. Do you ever used static linking? I only test with nsim, but can't use any static binaries. best regards Waldemar
