[svsm-devel] Fwd: Stage1 loader linker issues while building coconut svsm

[Kalra, Ashish]

Hello,

Getting this ld error while linking stage1 loader in coconut svsm:

# cc -c -o stage1/stage1.o stage1/stage1.S

# cc -o stage1/stage1 stage1/stage1.o stage1/reset.o -nostdlib 
-Wl,--build-id=none -Wl,-Tstage1/stage1.lds

/usr/local/bin/ld: stage1/stage1.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against 
`.startup.text' can not be used when making a PIE object; recompile with 
-fPIE
/usr/local/bin/ld: failed to set dynamic section sizes: bad value


When i link with -no-pie, ld works fine.

The stage1 loader code looks to be doing all relative addressing, i 
don't see any absolute addresses, compiling is not giving any issues anyway.

Also, ld is version 2.40:

$ ld --version
GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.40

Thanks,
Ashish
