Hello,
I'm trying to get udev to link statically to create an initramfs
image, but I can't get it to do it with the autoconf configure script.
No matter what I do, ldd reports that the binaries are dynamically
linked. Here's my configure line:
./configure --prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs/usr
--exec-prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs --sysconfdir=/etc
--enable-static --disable-shared
I've also tried:
LDFLAGS="-static" ./configure --prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs/usr
--exec-prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs --sysconfdir=/etc
--enable-static --disable-shared
CFLAGS="-static" ./configure --prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs/usr
--exec-prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs --sysconfdir=/etc
--enable-static --disable-shared
LDFLAGS="-static" CFLAGS="-static" ./configure
--prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs/usr
--exec-prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs --sysconfdir=/etc
--enable-static --disable-shared
Here's the result from using the first configure line:
ersin@basmati:~/vorpo_source/udev-138$ ./configure
--prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs/usr
--exec-prefix=/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs --sysconfdir=/etc

Here's a sample from what I see after I type make (note no static switch):
libtool: compile: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -include
../../config.h -DSYSCONFDIR=\"/etc\"
-DUDEV_PREFIX=\"/home/ersin/vorpo_initramfs\" -D_LIBUDEV_COMPILATION
-g -O2 -MT libudev-device.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps/libudev-device.Tpo -c
libudev-device.c -o libudev-device.o
mv -f .deps/libudev-device.Tpo .deps/libudev-device.Plo
When I set LDFLAGS and/or CFLAGS to link statically, I get a similar
result except I see the -static switch come up, but whichever way I do
it ldd reports this:
ersin@basmati:~/vorpo_source/udev-138/udev$ ldd udevd
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xb7fc8000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (0xb7e5e000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fc9000)
I'm compiling on Debian Lenny with kernel 2.6.26 and gcc 4.3. I've
also successfully linked statically with udev 125, which was the last
version before the configure script went over to autoconf. For 125, I
passed USE_STATIC=true, but that doesn't seem to work anymore. Any
ideas?
Thanks,
Ersin Akinci
