Dear Guys and Gals, When we are developing Gentoo RAP[1], a solution to run a full independent GNU userland managed by portage in a directory prefix, we find the feature of sysroot can be decomposed to meet a larger variaty of needs.
The attached patch is tested against binutils-2.23 and SVN head, please review. Cheers, Benda 1. http://git.heroxbd.z.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/?p=doc.git;a=blob;f=glep-gap.rst === The feature sysroot originally for cross compiling has two parts. The first is to prepend lib path, done in configure phase, which we call configure-time sysroot. The second is to prepend rpath in libraries and path inside ld scripts when ld is called, which we call runtime sysroot. In the case of cross compilation, both are needed. While in the case of native sysroot, which runs userland in a directory prefix natively, only configure-time sysroot is needed. Here we add an additional option of --enable-runtime-sysroot to fine control such features. 2013-08-25 Benda Xu <hero...@gentoo.org> * configure.in: add enable-runtime-sysroot to control the macro ENABLE_RUNTIME_SYSROOT * emultempl/elf32.em: only prepend rpath with sysroot when ENABLE_RUNTIME_SYSROOT is defined * ldfile.c: only prepend lib path with sysroot when ENABLE_RUNTIME_SYSROOT is defined * ld.texinfo: document this new behavior for ld script Index: binutils-2.23/ld/configure.in =================================================================== --- binutils-2.23.orig/ld/configure.in +++ binutils-2.23/ld/configure.in @@ -70,6 +70,18 @@ AC_SUBST(use_sysroot) AC_SUBST(TARGET_SYSTEM_ROOT) AC_SUBST(TARGET_SYSTEM_ROOT_DEFINE) +AC_ARG_ENABLE(runtime-sysroot, +[AS_HELP_STRING([--enable-runtime-sysroot], + [prepend sysroot to libpath in ld script and rpath, + only used in addition to --with-sysroot (default is yes)])], +[case "${enableval}" in + no) ;; + *) AC_DEFINE(ENABLE_RUNTIME_SYSROOT, [], \ + [prepend sysroot to libpath in ld script and rpath]) ;; +esac], +AC_DEFINE(ENABLE_RUNTIME_SYSROOT, [], \ + [prepend sysroot to libpath in ld script and rpath])) + dnl Use --enable-gold to decide if this linker should be the default. dnl "install_as_default" is set to false if gold is the default linker. dnl "installed_linker" is the installed BFD linker name.
