when linking an executable for mips,I got this error relocation truncated to fit: R_MIPS_TLS_GOTTPREL against `_nl_current_LC_COLLATE'

how can i to fix it?

first: you'll probably need to link with -static-libgcc

This might or might not fix your second problem also: GOT overflow.

If the error still persists (you'll probably compiling pic code?), you might get away recompiling everything with -mxgot

The root cause of the problem is likely shown by this error message:

../../lib/prebuild-octeon/libpq.a(thread.o): In function `pqGetpwuid':
thread.c:(.text+0x1c): warning: Using 'getpwuid' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking

You are statically linking something that doesn't want to be statically linked.

But what the linker error messages seem to be telling you is that the global offset table has overflowed. I think there is space for only 64K entries in the GOT.
