Public bug reported: I'm working on Ubuntu 18.04 x86_64 fully patched. I'm trying to use patchelf to fix runpaths in Perl built from sources. Perl is mishandling runpath options in LDFLAGS but refuses to fix it; see https://github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/17534.
When patchelf runs I see a lot of: /home/jwalton/perl-5.32.0/fix-pkgconfig.exe warning: working around a Linux kernel bug by creating a hole of 2072576 bytes in ‘/home/jwalton/perl-5.32.0/fix-pkgconfig.exe’ /home/jwalton/perl-5.32.0/generate_uudmap warning: working around a Linux kernel bug by creating a hole of 2088960 bytes in ‘/home/jwalton/perl-5.32.0/generate_uudmap’ ... I believe patchelf needs this commit: https://github.com/NixOS/patchelf/commit/c4deb5e9. Also see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1497012. ** Affects: patchelf (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1888175 Title: patchelf and bloat due to "warning: working around a Linux kernel bug by creating a hole of ..."
