Subject: [PATCH] selftest/powerpc/benchmark: remove requirement libc-dev
Date: Mon,  5 Aug 2024 14:00:08 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240805083008.1300853-1-maddy@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

Currently exec-target.c file is linked as static and this
post a requirement to install libc dev package to build.
Without it, build-breaks when compiling selftest/powerpc/benchmark.

  CC       exec_target
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lc: No such file or directory
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

exec_target.c is using "syscall" library function which
could be replaced with a inline assembly and the same is
proposed as a fix here.
