This is wrong, these testcases cannot be position-independent
executables. Can you include the failing command line from "V=1"
output?
The problem seems to be that these definitions are not working properly:
no-pie-option := $(call try-run, echo 'int main() { return 0; }' | \
$(CC) -Werror $(KBUILD_CPPFLAGS) $(CC_OPTION_CFLAGS) -no-pie -x c - -o "$$TMP", -no-pie)
LDFLAGS += -pthread $(no-pie-option)
Thanks,
Paolo
