How to compile a static gdb-server?

How to compile a static gdb-server?

[fei ding]

Hey guys:

I need to compile a static gdb-server, which LDFLAGS=-static in
makefile, but it fails like this:

gcc -shared -fPIC -Wl,--no-undefined -g -O2     -I. -I. -I./../common
-I./../regformats -I./.. -I./../../include -I./../gnulib/import
-Ibuild-gnulib-gdbserver/import -Wall -Wdeclaration-after-statement
-Wpointer-arith -Wformat-nonliteral -Wno-char-subscripts -Wempty-body
-DGDBSERVER \
    -static  -Wl,--dynamic-list=./proc-service.list -o
libinproctrace.so ax-ipa.o tracepoint-ipa.o format-ipa.o utils-ipa.o
regcache-ipa.o remote-utils-ipa.o common-utils-ipa.o tdesc-ipa.o
print-utils-ipa.o rsp-low-ipa.o amd64-linux-ipa.o linux-amd64-ipa.o
-ldl -pthread
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.6/crtbeginT.o: relocation
R_X86_64_32 against `__DTOR_END__' can not be used when making a
shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.6/crtbeginT.o: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [libinproctrace.so] Error 1


How can I make it?

Thanks a lot.

Hi Fei,
Remove the "-shared" flag from the gcc command line and try again.
When both "-shared" and "-static" are present in the command line, gcc will show
this funny crtbeginT.o compile error message.

I'd suggest adding --disable-inprocess-agent to the configure line; the
in-process agent library is wired up to be dynamically loaded, and is
only needed if you're doing fast tracepoints (ftrace command).
