I have never built a uclibc based HLFS, but this is what I came up with to get through the test suites without any unexpected failures on my glibc build.
*cc1: %(cc1_cpu) %{profile:-p} %{!-fPIE:-fno-PIE} %{!-stack-protector:-fno-stack-protector} *cc1plus: %{!-fPIE:-fno-PIE} %{!-stack-protector:-fno-stack-protector} On Mon, Jun 15, 2009 at 7:39 AM, Mwanguhya Daniel Murungi<dmuru...@dicts.mak.ac.ug> wrote: > I made the following change in the gcc spec file for cc1: from; > > *cc1: > %(cc1_cpu) %{profile:-p} %{fno-pic|fpic|fPIC:;:-fPIC} > > to > > *cc1: > %(cc1_cpu) %{profile:-p} %{fno-pic|fpic|fPIC:;:-fno-PIE -fno-stack-protector} Well correct me if I am wrong (its been known to happen) but the above line says if fno-pic and or fpic and or PIC is declared then use -fno-PIE -fno-stack-protector. If that is indeed what it means then I could see why you are still getting a few failures. Not all tests necessarily pass those flags and so any tests that don't are still lacking the -fno-PIE -fno-stack-protector flags. That is why I decided to do %{!-fPIE:-fno-PIE} %{!-stack-protector:-fno-stack-protector}. With this line (as I understand the specs file) we get both -fno-PIE and -fno-stack-protector unless -PIE or -stack-protector is passed. I figured if anything explicitly requires either of those flags it would be best to allow it. Also it is probably better to declare -fno-PIE and -fno-stack-protector separately so we can check for the opposite flag for each rather than just expecting one to go along with the other. Again I may be misunderstanding the specs file so forgive me if that is the case, but the above amendments worked very well for my build.
