  152. If you answer Y here, the uClibc native shared library loader will
  153. only load shared libraries, which do not need to modify any non-writable
  154. segments. These libraries haven't set the DT_TEXTREL tag in the dynamic
  155. section (==> objdump). All your libraries must be compiled with
  156. -fPIC or -fpic, and all assembler function must be written as position
  157. independent code (PIC).

  193. If you wish to support both uClibc and glibc on the same system, it
  194. is necessary to set this to something other than "ld.so" to avoid
  195. conflicts with glibc, which also uses "ld.so". This prevents both
  196. libraries from using the same /etc/ld.so.* files. If you wish to
  197. support both uClibc and glibc on the same system then you should set
  198. this to "ld-uClibc.so".

  208. which extend the library search paths. They are really only useful
  209. if a package installs libraries in non standard locations and
  210. ld.so.conf support is disabled.

  217. If you wish to build uClibc with support for global constructor
  218. (ctor) and global destructor (dtor) support, then answer Y here.
  219. When ctor/dtor support is enabled, binaries linked with uClibc must
  220. also be linked with crtbegin.o and crtend.o which are provided by gcc
  221. (the "*startfile:" and "*endfile:" settings in your gcc specs file
  222. may need to be adjusted to include these files). This support will
  223. also add a small amount of additional size to each binary compiled vs
  224. uClibc. If you will be using uClibc with C++, or if you need the gcc
  225. __attribute__((constructor)) and __attribute__((destructor)) to work,

  238. This will increase the size of uClibc by adding a bunch of locking
  239. to critical data structures, and adding extra code to ensure that
