[Openmp-commits] [PATCH] D103545: [NFC][libomptarget] Reduce the dependency on libelf

[Jon Chesterfield via Phabricator via Openmp-commits]

JonChesterfield added a comment.

It appears the static llvm libraries were not built with fPIC, thus can't be linked into a shared library. Forcing fPIC on everything would verify that (as in stuff would work, maybe slightly slower) if the cmake controls are opaque.

I think there's a linker bug/feature in this area too, I remember running into this on a previous toolchain where the objects had all been built with fPIC, but the relocation error remained. I think that was solved by passing a linker flag or using gold, but that is going back a few years and the details are hazy.
