glibc: elf file OS ABI invalid
abi, glibc, linux, linux-kernel
Solution
It's not your kernel version that's the problem.
The loader on your system does not support the new `Linux` ABI. Until relatively recently, Linux ELF binaries used the `System V` ABI. Recently, in support of STT_GNU_IFUNC, the `Linux` ABI was added. You would have to update your system C library to have a loader that support STT_GNU_IFUNC, and then it will also recognize ELF objects with the `Linux` ABI type.
See Dave Miller's blog entry on STT_GNU_IFUNC for Sparc (archived) to gain an understanding of what STT_GNU_IFUNC does, if you care.
