Hi all,
I'm using Yocto warrior building a system based on NIVIDA tegra TX2i. My tree
is using an external toolchain, gcc linaro 7.2.1 (specified through
EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN variable in local.conf). I'm confused on setting up security
flags.
In ,y local.conf, I have `GCCPIE ?= "--enable-default-pie"` enabled, but
binaries built are not actually compiled with PIE not sure about PIC. I found
out that this is due to the following condition in security_flags.inc:
```
# Inject pie flags into compiler flags if not configured with gcc itself
# especially useful with external toolchains
SECURITY_PIE_CFLAGS ?= "${@'' if '${GCCPIE}' else '-pie -fPIE'}"
```
So I tried to setup GCCPIE as `GCCPIE = ""`. This actually includes `-pie
-fPIE` in gcc, but then the build failed when building attr_2.4.47. The error
messages are pretty long if anyone want to see it I will attach in a followup
email.
My question is that is there a way to properly add PIE or at least PIC for
Yocto Warrior with external toolchain?
Thanks
-Daniel
