  163. only load shared libraries, which do not need to modify any non-writable
  164. segments. These libraries haven't set the DT_TEXTREL tag in the dynamic

  166. -fPIC or -fpic, and all assembler function must be written as position
  167. independent code (PIC).

  204. is necessary to set this to something other than "ld.so" to avoid

  1139. config DOSTRIP

  1142. depends on !DODEBUG
  1143. help
  1144. Say Y here if you do wish to strip all uClibc libraries and
  1145. executables. No stripping increases the size of the binaries
  1146. considerably, but makes it possible to debug uClibc libraries.
  1147. Most people will answer Y.
  1148. config DOASSERTS
  1149. bool "Build uClibc with run-time assertion testing"
  1150. default n
  1151. help
  1152. Say Y here to include runtime assertion tests.
  1153. This enables runtime assertion testing in some code, which can
  1154. increase the size of the library and incur runtime overhead.
  1155. If you say N, then this testing will be disabled.
  1156. config SUPPORT_LD_DEBUG
  1157. bool "Build the shared library loader with debugging support"
  1158. depends on HAVE_SHARED
  1159. default n
  1160. help
  1161. Answer Y here to enable all the extra code needed to debug the uClibc
  1162. native shared library loader. The level of debugging noise that is
  1163. generated depends on the LD_DEBUG environment variable... Just set
  1164. LD_DEBUG to something like: 'LD_DEBUG=token1,token2,.. prog' to
  1165. debug your application. Diagnostic messages will then be printed to
  1166. the stderr.
  1167. For now these debugging tokens are available:
  1168. detail provide more information for some options
  1169. move display copy processing
  1170. symbols display symbol table processing
  1171. reloc display relocation processing; detail shows the relocation patch
  1172. nofixups never fixes up jump relocations
  1173. bindings displays the resolve processing (function calls); detail shows the relocation patch
  1174. all Enable everything!
  1175. The additional environment variable:
  1176. LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT=file
  1177. redirects the diagnostics to an output file created using
  1178. the specified name and the process id as a suffix.
  1179. An excellent start is simply:
  1180. $ LD_DEBUG=binding,move,symbols,reloc,detail ./appname
  1181. or to log everything to a file named 'logfile', try this
  1182. $ LD_DEBUG=all LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT=logfile ./appname
  1183. If you are doing development and want to debug uClibc's shared library
  1184. loader, answer Y. Mere mortals answer N.
  1185. config SUPPORT_LD_DEBUG_EARLY
  1186. bool "Build the shared library loader with early debugging support"
  1187. depends on HAVE_SHARED
  1188. default n
  1189. help
  1190. Answer Y here to if you find the uClibc shared library loader is
  1191. crashing or otherwise not working very early on. This is typical
  1192. only when starting a new port when you haven't figured out how to
  1193. properly get the values for argc, argv, environ, etc. This method
  1194. allows a degree of visibility into the very early shared library
  1195. loader initialization process. If you are doing development and want
  1196. to debug the uClibc shared library loader early initialization,
  1197. answer Y. Mere mortals answer N.
  1198. config UCLIBC_MALLOC_DEBUGGING
  1199. bool "Build malloc with debugging support"
  1200. depends MALLOC
  1201. default n
  1202. help
  1203. Answer Y here to compile extra debugging support code into malloc.
  1204. Malloc debugging output may then be enabled at runtime using the
  1205. MALLOC_DEBUG environment variable.
  1206. The value of MALLOC_DEBUG should be an integer, which is interpreted as
  1207. a bitmask with the following bits:
  1208. 1 - do extra consistency checking
  1209. 2 - output messages for malloc/free calls and OS allocation calls
  1210. 4 - output messages for the `MMB' layer
  1211. 8 - output messages for internal malloc heap manipulation calls
  1212. Because this increases the size of malloc appreciably (due to strings
  1213. etc), you should say N unless you need to debug a malloc problem.
