[Qemu-devel] Latest QEMU does not support --enable-check-utests on Debian with --enable-pie (default)

[Stefan Weil]

This is my configuration and the output from configure:

configure '--audio-card-list=ac97,es1370,sb16,cs4231a,adlib,gus,hda' 
'--audio-drv-list=alsa,sdl,oss,esd,pa' '--enable-mixemu' 
'--enable-check-utests' '--enable-vnc-thread'
ERROR
ERROR: User requested feature check
ERROR: configure was not able to find it
ERROR

This is what configure does internally:

gcc -fPIE -DPIE -m64 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -D_GNU_SOURCE 
-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -Wstrict-prototypes

When I add --disable-pie, configure works.

Works for me, see appended log.

You can't link non-PIC code like libcheck.a into a PIE.  Do you have
libcheck.so?

Note I dropped esd (too lazy to install right now), fixed up your
quoting, and run in a sub-directory.

Debian squeeze has libcheck.a and libcheck_pic.a, but no
libcheck.so in package 'check'.

There are other files names *_pic.a, and obviously those
libraries are to be linked to a PIE. If I use -lcheck_pic,
building PIEs works.

Maybe configure must be extended to try library names
with an additional _pic for PIE.
