. +config HARDWIRED_ABSPATH + string "Hardwire absolute paths into linker scripts" + default y + help + This prepends absolute paths to the libraries mentioned in linker + scripts such as libc.so. + + This is a build time optimization. It has no impact on dynamic + linking at runtime, which doesn't use linker scripts. + + You must disable this to use uClibc with a relocatable toolchain, + such as the prebuilt binary cross compilers at + http://uclibc.org/downloads/binaries which may be installed at an + arbitrary location (such as in a user's home directory). + + The amount of time saved by this optimization is actually too small to + measure. The linker just had to search the library path to find the + linker script, so the dentries are cache hot if it has to search the + same path again. But it's what glibc does, so we do it too. + endmenu -- cgit v1.2.3
