Moreover, using -fPIC for statically linked configurations generally doesn't make sense: the point of PIC code is to be Position Independent, which is needed for shared libraries. But not for statically linked programs. > The upstream Makefile also allows building a shared library if > CONFIG_SHARED=1 is added to _BUILD_CMDS. This probably fixes the problem however. So, can you explain the addition of -fPIC for BR2_STATIC_LIBS=y configurations? Thanks!

But not for > statically linked programs. AFAI understand these build failures, the problem comes from the static library libdcadec.a that is unconditionnally built. When the config has BR2_SHARED_LIBS=y, this static library got built without -fPIC, then is used by ffmpeg to be linked against for some shared objects libraries (e.g. libavcodec.so). That's right here that error occurs. > >> The upstream Makefile also allows building a shared library if >> CONFIG_SHARED=1 is added to _BUILD_CMDS. > > This probably fixes the problem however. To fix this the options are: 1) build libdcadec as a shared library, if it is supported; 2) or, add -fPIC when BR2_SHARED_LIBS=y; 3) or, unconditionally add -fPIC. My preference is option 1). > > So, can you explain the addition of -fPIC for BR2_STATIC_LIBS=y > configurations? IIRC, -fPIC on static libs does not have any harmful consequences, only a slight overhead at some point due to some indirection. > > Thanks! > > Thomas > -- > Thomas Petazzoni, CTO, Free Electrons > Embedded Linux, Kernel and Android engineering > http://free-electrons.com > _______________________________________________ > buildroot mailing list > buildroot at busybox.net > http://lists.busybox.net/mailman/listinfo/buildroot Regards, -- Samuel ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread

Correct. But it doesn't make sense to explicitly add -fPIC when BR2_STATIC_LIBS=y.
