Reproduced with elfutils-devel-0.170-1.el7, verified with elfutils-devel-0.170-4.el7. Since the problem described in this bug report should be resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For information on the advisory, and where to find the updated files, follow the link below. If the solution does not work for you, open a new bug report. https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHEA-2018:0891 Nick, I've noticed this static relocation on rhel8: ======= 8.0 Server x86_64 # readelf -r -W /usr/lib64/libebl.a | grep GOTPCRELX 00000000000005d9 000000690000002a R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX 0000000000000000 stdout - 4 8.0 Server x86_64 # rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libebl.a elfutils-devel-0.174-6.el8.x86_64 8.0 Server x86_64 # ======= But I assume that that's OK, since on rhel8 we don't need to care about compatibility with "older linkers", right?. So the testcase respective to this rhel7 bug is not relevant for rhel8. Does this sound correct? Hi Martin, That is correct. Cheers Nick |
