Title:
2.35.50 breaks ld -no-pie
Status in binutils:
Fix Released
Status in binutils package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in qemu package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Bug description:
The qemu build reaches (and always did) a step where it tries to link some
img files. That is done via the command:
$ ld -m elf_i386 -T /<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/pc-bios/optionrom//flat.lds -no-pie -s
-o multiboot.img multiboot.o
Recently that still works in Debian [1] but no more in Ubuntu [2].
I think that the new binutils broke me.
In hirsute proposed those are at 2.35.50.20201210-0ubuntu1
The issue is easily isolated, and by copying the two files around I
found the following:
Hirsute: 2.35.50.20201210-0ubuntu1 - bad
Hirsute: 2.35.50.20201207-0ubuntu1 - bad
Sid: 2.35.1-4 - good
Groovy: 2.35.1-1ubuntu1 - good
Focal: 2.34-6ubuntu1 - good
I'll attach these two files to the bug, just thro them into a directory and
run the command:
$ ld -m elf_i386 -T ./flat.lds -no-pie -s -o linuxboot.img linuxboot.o
If that is an intentional change please guide how this is now supposed
to work.
