[Linker error] undefined reference to `__dyn_tls_init_callback' 

[Linker error] undefined reference to `__cpu_features_init'

I had an error similar to this in Dev-Cpp (4.9.9.2) after installing MinGW32.

[Linker error] undefined reference to `__dyn_tls_init_callback'

[Linker error] undefined reference to `__cpu_features_init'

Apparently Dev-Cpp was automatically linking to those new libraries and I just changed the name of the MinGW32 folder (default location was inside C:). This fixed the whole problem and Dev-Cpp went back to linking the correct libraries when C:\MinGW32 was not accessible. Changing the Dev-Cpp compiler options library did not work in this case.

if you have install Migwin or cygwin in C then try to install Dev C++ on other directory with latest version. Old version on another directory will still may give you the same error. My problem has been resolve by doing this.

Seems like it can't find the MinGW libraries.

Click on Tools -> Compiler Options In the directory tab, right click Libraries and change to the MinGW lib directory. In this example, it was C:\MinGW\lib

This might happen if you uninstall, re-install, or upgrade MinGW.
