Which means I don't have those static library files, will try installing
them.
I'm trying with the latest fedora that comes with static libraries,
fedora:32, and there I noticed that we need to look for libzstd as well,
I added it manually to:
target_link_libraries(dwarves ${DWARF_LIBRARIES} ${ZLIB_LIBRARIES} ${LIBBPF_LIBRARIES} ${ARGP_LIBRARY} ${OBSTACK_LIBRARY} ${BZ2_LIBRARY} ${LZMA_LIBRARY} -lzstd)
[root@cc85f3a7b96f dwarves-1.22]# rpm -qa | grep -- -static
zlib-static-1.2.11-21.fc32.x86_64
glibc-static-2.31-6.fc32.x86_64
elfutils-devel-static-0.183-1.fc32.x86_64
xz-static-5.2.5-1.fc32.x86_64

Fedora release 32 (Thirty Two)
[root@cc85f3a7b96f dwarves-1.22]#
now I'm at:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/10/../../../../lib64/libdw.a(debuginfod-client.o): in function `__libdwfl_debuginfod_init':

/usr/bin/ld: (.text.startup[.text.startup.group]+0xe0): undefined reference to `dlclose'
that needs some more magic that I already forgot :-\
When trying on Ubuntu it also appeared that find_library() for libebl
was also needed, but not on Alpine Linux so I did not include it, as it
does not seem necessary on Alpine. I'm not sure how we want to go about
these:
1) Take the union of all the dependencies that seem to be necessary and
deal gracefully in CMakeLists.txt with failure to find a lib. This will
result in linker error if a lib is actually necessary and not found.
2) Select a blessed distro for static building and only maintain that
3) Find some cmake builtin "magic" so that the user can point at
existing lib that seem to not be detected on their distro. I'm quite
rusty in cmake so maybe there is a better way than sprinkling
find_library() everywhere.
So far I opted for approach 2) with Alpine, as building on e.g. Ubuntu
will not work in any case, because glibc does not support static linking
(it kind of does until it does not anymore). Alpine uses the musl libc
which supports static linking.
As for the dlopen/dlsym/dlclose issue I'm not sure. Maybe these symbols
are just not present in static glibc ? The binary I produced on Alpine
did not seem to segfault [1]. If you want to give it a go, this scripts
set it up in ~20s:
https://github.com/alpinelinux/alpine-chroot-install
Packages: bash gcc git make cmake musl-dev zlib-static bzip2-static
libelf-static libbpf-dev musl-obstack-dev argp-standalone linux-headers
I'll try with this later, thing is, I want to build on the CI for pahole
that Andrii put in place in the libbpf repo, so we need to check how to
build this static build.
Ok, I had a quick look and it seems to be Ubuntu/Debian based with github actions.
libdwfl seems to have some sort of hard dependency on dlopen in
__libdwfl_debuginfod_init. I'll give a go at the musl-gcc (musl-tools on Ubuntu)
to see if we can get a working static bin.
