Not all systems support shared libraries; you need ELF support and (currently) the GNU linker. +@item --enable-static-pie +Enable static position independent executable (static PIE) support. +Static PIE is similar to static executable, but can be loaded at any +address without help from a dynamic linker. All static programs as +well as static tests are built as static PIE, except for those marked +with no-pie. The resulting glibc can be used with the GCC option, +-static-pie, which is available with GCC 8 or above, to create static +PIE. + @item --disable-profile Don't build libraries with profiling information. You may want to use this option if you don't plan to do profiling. |
