Subject: [RFC PATCH 8/9] selftests/nolibc: Add option for building with -static-pie
Date: Sat, 31 Jan 2026 16:44:39 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260131074440.732588-9-daniel@thingy.jp> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260131074440.732588-1-daniel@thingy.jp>

Allow the tests to build with -static-pie instead of -static to
test the self relocation code works.

Note: This doesn't work 100% correctly. For x86_64 I can see the
test binary is static or static-pie depending on if -static or
-static-pie is used but for m68k it's always static and I had
to hack in the workaround.

I have somehow got the tests to seem to produce static PIE
binaries when requested, and regular static ones when not but
its a mess and this can't be used as-is.
