Bug 407435 – sys-devel/llvm-3.0-r1 without -fPIC in CXXFLAGS - work/ llvm-3.0.src/Release/lib/libLLVMJIT.a(JIT.o): requires dynamic R_X86_64_PC32 reloc against '__dso_handle' which may overflow at runtime; recompile with -fPIC

• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Stanislav Ochotnicky (RETIRED) 2012-03-08 15:47:16 UTC]

While compiling llvm-3.0-r1[+gold] I get numerous linking errors when preparing shared library. Might not be related to gold use flag in fact, but since it's a departure from default I am willing to retest if needed.

After adding -fPIC to CXXFLAGS I've been able to compile it. Otherwise I am getting errors similar to this:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.5.3/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: error: /data/temp/portage/sys-devel/llvm-3.0-r1/work/llvm-3.0.src/Release/lib/libLLVMSelectionDAG.a(LegalizeFloatTypes.o): requires dynamic R_X86_64_PC32 reloc against 'llvm::DAGTypeLegalizer::RemapValue(llvm::SDValue&)' which may overflow at runtime; recompile with -fPIC


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. USE="gold" emerge sys-devel/llvm

build log

had to compress the log due to size

[Comment 2 Stanislav Ochotnicky (RETIRED) 2012-03-08 16:16:14 UTC]

Scratch the -fPIC solution, it was just taking much longer to compile so I assumed I've passed that point. 

However when I disabled [gold] and set current binutils to 2.21.1-r1, I managed to compile llvm withtou issues. Not sure now if this is binutils or llvm problem

[Comment 3 Bernard Cafarelli 2012-03-09 10:32:38 UTC]

Strange one, I never had the problem on my boxes (just retested with binutils-2.22-r1, gcc-4.5.3-r2 and USE=gold). The "--enable-pic" is passed correctly also...

[Comment 4 Karl Tomlinson 2012-08-30 23:12:01 UTC]

See this when building llvm-3.0-r2 (without USE=gold) with gcc-4.5.4.
An old gcc-4.4.5 builds fine.  gcc-4.5.3-r2 fails.

[Comment 5 Karl Tomlinson 2012-08-31 00:16:13 UTC]

Seems the distinction is in whether gcc is built with ld.gold.  Those builds fail.  ld.bfd builds of gcc succeed.

[Comment 6 Bernard Cafarelli 2014-01-30 19:27:12 UTC]

Cleaning old bugreports, I know several people who have no problem with this combination and current packages. Don't hesitate to reopen if you still have problems!

[Comment 7 Marcin Mirosław 2014-02-25 09:48:38 UTC]

It looks problem still exists (at least for me):
