[RFC] tools/nolibc: x86_64: Make it compile with -pie
From: Vitaly Chikunov
Date: Sun Aug 20 2023 - 14:32:19 EST
Use RIP-relative addressing when setting `environ` and `_auxv` in
startup code.
Some toolchains have `-pie` enabled by default. On them or when -pie is
specified manually gcc produces error like this:
ld: /tmp/cci0uPcR.o: relocation R_X86_64_32S against symbol `environ' can not be used when making a PIE object; recompile with -fPIE
ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: bad value
This is because asm() startup code accesses there pointers with absolute
addressing.
This may inspire others to fix the problem for other architectures too.
