Killed Process

Hi,

I am trying to port a speech Codec, GSM-AMRNB on Beagle Board. The Codec
is for ARM-1176JZ-S architecture, hav built the Binary using RVDS3.1, so an (.axf),
file has been created, after the built process, so i used postlinker -fromelf to convert
it to binary .bin file or an .elf tht i could flash it in the Beagle board.

After, flashing it in the board, am trying to run using ./Executeblebinary_name, and
i am getting in the next line this error “Killed”. Wht might be the Problem.?

Danka,
Rajiv.

what would you have done if it said "killed" when running it on your desktop?

although the beagleboard counts as "embedded", all the usual debugging techniques
like gdb, strace and printf still apply.

Hmmm…Thanks a lot for the reply…yep, am gonna look into putting someprintf’s in the main(), am not sure if the main is also hitting in this case.

One thing tht i want to ask is, does it matter the OS where we are building
the Project for, i have built the Project on RVDS3.1 on Windows, whereas
the Beagle Board is having Linux kernel 2.6.35, and so wht i hav done is
tht i had Ubuntu10.10, and on tht i have downloaded and installed this open
source toolchain for ARM, arm-none-gnueabi-linux-* from Code Sourcery.

Instead, of building the project on this Cross-compile toolchain, i hooked
into RVDS to convert the built .axf image of the project into .bin image or
.elf image, during PostLinking, which could be flashed to the SD Card using
-fromelf utility provided by RVDS.

This .elf file produced during the postlinking process by RVDS, is the
one tht i am trying to run on the board and i am getting the “killed” message
as soon as i press ‘enter’ after ./executable_name.

Is it required to build this project on Linux, using the cross compile toolchain,
since then i will be requirin to write a Makefile for it…?

Danke,
Rajiv.
