I'm certainly open to better naming ideas. Underlying problem is that x64 ProcessorBind.h sets visibility to hidden (anyone knows why?). Seems to be fine for freestanding binaries, but when linking host tools against shared libraries things break. For some reason on ubuntu only, fedora works fine (both gcc and clang). Automatically detecting freestanding vs. hosted would be even better, anyone knows whenever there is a define which can be used for this? At least the gcc man page doesn't mention any ... > Speaking of host-based unit tests, why are they not affected by the > issue? Hmm, good question. Maybe they are simple enough to not need libc symbols. Guess I should try a full test build on ubuntu, not only building basetools. take care, Gerd -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
