--- Comment #2 from xiezhiheng <xiezhiheng at huawei dot com> --- (In reply to H.J. Lu from comment #1) > I have > > have-protected-data = no > > in config.make. What do you have? In my config.make, have-protected-data = yes Oh I think I find something interesting. Thanks a lot for the hint. Normally for checking linker support for protected data symbol, it gets failure. configure:6698: checking linker support for protected data symbol configure:6709: gcc -nostdlib -nostartfiles -fno-stack-protector -fPIC -shared conftest.c -o conftest.so configure:6712: $? = 0 configure:6719: gcc -nostdlib -nostartfiles -fno-stack-protector conftest.c -o conftest conftest.so /usr/bin/ld: error: /tmp/ccU1Z7bY.o: cannot make copy relocation for protected symbol 'bar', defined in conftest.so collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status configure:6722: $? = 1 configure:6730: result: no But in my building system, for safety reasons, we add -fPIC option globally in some way. So it would be like gcc -nostdlib -nostartfiles -fno-stack-protector -fPIC -shared conftest.c -o conftest.so gcc -nostdlib -nostartfiles -fno-stack-protector conftest.c -o conftest conftest.so -fPIC and it passes. I think it may be the key point for the failure. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
