From 33fd05be5614bde6bd96c0d6a7020a2bca376487 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Andersen Date: Wed, 5 Feb 2003 07:45:35 +0000 Subject: Patch from Stefan Allius to make adding libgcc functions to the library an option, to avoid the possibility of adding non PIC code into the shared PIC uClibc library, thereby making the .text segment unshareable. --- extra/Configs/Config.in | 19 ++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 18 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'extra') diff --git a/extra/Configs/Config.in b/extra/Configs/Config.in index 6dd0c4e20..c02c28c8f 100644 --- a/extra/Configs/Config.in +++ b/extra/Configs/Config.in @@ -27,6 +27,23 @@ config HAVE_SHARED answer Y here.
