Re: [DynInst_API:] Several Dyninst build issues

[Bill Williams <bill@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jim, Englebert:

Taking these in order:

1) Yes, the libiberty you link against must be PIC. I've observed each 
of the following:
* libiberty.a is present and PIC
* libiberty.a is present and non-PIC; libiberty_pic.a is present and PIC.
* libiberty.so is present and, necessarily, PIC.
* libiberty.a is present and non-PIC; no other libiberty is present.

I'd check whether libiberty_pic.a is present if you're manually 
specifying the location of binutils. You can of course also go the 
automatic detect/download/build route.
2) Does /opt/krellroot_v2.1u3/bin/ld work for linking object files built 
with gcc? Is this the linker you intend to use? You're mixing toolchains 
here (that linker with /usr/bin/gcc) and I have no idea whether that's 
deliberate or not, and no idea whether the toolchains in question are 
compatible.
3) libdwarf must be built PIC or shared (we generally go for shared) in 
order to link--we do not support deferred linking of static libraries 
into a dyninst-based executable. Grab source and build with 
--enable-shared, or let Dyninst's CMake do it for you automatically.
4) That case should be wrapped in an #if defined(STT_GNU_IFUNC), and it 
is on the 8.2 branch.
