Every AArch64 gnu example build failed at the sample link, all 27 of them --
13 under ports/ and 14 under ports_smp/:
libg.a(libc_a-init.o): in function `__libc_init_array':
undefined reference to `_init'
relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_CALL26 against undefined
symbol `_init'
libg.a(libc_a-fini.o): in function `__libc_fini_array':
undefined reference to `_fini'
build_threadx_sample.sh links with -nostartfiles, which is correct for a port
carrying its own reset path, and that drops crti.o and crtn.o along with
everything else. startup.S calls __libc_init_array by design, and newlib's
implementation calls _init, which crti.o is what defines. The AArch32 scripts
are unaffected: they use nosys.specs and never reach __libc_init_array.
The fix links crti.o and crtn.o explicitly, bracketing the object list -- the
first must precede every .init contribution and the second must follow all of
them, so their position is load-bearing rather than stylistic. Both paths come
from the compiler's own -print-file-name, so nothing here hard-codes a
toolchain layout.
The atfe branch sets both to empty, deliberately: picolibc's __libc_init_array
does not call _init, those 27 images link today, and adding crti.o would change
a working link for no reason. That is also why check_clang.sh is green on these
and does not list them as expected to fail -- the LLVM path never reached the
gap, so nothing has ever linked them and failed.
Fixed in ports_arch/ARMv8-A/threadx/ports/gnu/example_build, which is the
single source for both the ports/ and ports_smp/ copies, then regenerated with
update.sh --port-sets tx,tx_smp. The 27 generated copies are in this commit
because ports_arch_check compares them.
Verified: all 27 link with arm-gnu-toolchain 14.3.rel1 aarch64-none-elf, where
0 of 27 did before; _init and _fini disassemble to the expected crti prologue
and crtn epilogue over a ret; check_clang.sh with ATfE 22.1.0 is still green on
all five stages, including the 42 script-driven example builds; check_ports.sh
is green including the reproducibility check.
No regression test: these are link-only example images that no host test
executes. What guards them is check_clang.sh's example stage today, and
check_gcc.sh's, which is the next change and is the reason this was found.

ARMv8-A architecture ports
The ThreadX, ThreadX SMP, ThreadX Modules and ThreadX SMP Modules ports for ARMv8 share many files in common. To make work more efficient these files are internally tracked only once and copied over to specific ports for users.
