Subject: musl-gcc and LTO not working
Hello,
I'm currently trying to install and use a LTO only static version of musl in
order to measure the act of allowing gcc to inline the libc into my code.
This is on Gentoo amd64 glibc with gcc-8.3, binutils-2.32-r1 and both bfd and
gold.
I successfully built and installed it with (yes, the LDFLAGS are useless here):
$ AR=gcc-ar RANLIB=gcc-ranlib LDFLAGS=-fuse-linker-plugin CFLAGS='-flto -fno-fat-lto-objects' ./configure --disable-shared
$ make AR=gcc-ar RANLIB=gcc-ranlib LDFLAGS=-fuse-linker-plugin CFLAGS='-flto -fno-fat-lto-objects'
$ sudo make install
but trying to compile a simple hello_world.c gets me:
$ /usr/local/musl/bin/musl-gcc hello.c -o hello -flto -fuse-linker-plugin -static
crt/crt1.c:11:5: warning: type of ‘__libc_start_main’ does not match original declaration [-Wlto-type-mismatch]

<artificial>:(.text+0x27): undefined reference to `printf'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
As per a comment on the IRC, I added __attribute__((__used__)) to _start_c in
crt1.c before recompiling to solve the first undefined reference, but the
'printf' one still remained:
$ /usr/local/musl/bin/musl-gcc hello.c -o hello -flto -fuse-linker-plugin -static
crt/crt1.c:11:5: warning: type of ‘__libc_start_main’ does not match original declaration [-Wlto-type-mismatch]

<artificial>:(.text+0x27): undefined reference to `printf'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
In addition, I also get two strange behaviours. Linking without -flto nor
-fuse-linker-plugin works perfectly (I'll omit the aforementioned warnings for
now):
$ /usr/local/musl/bin/musl-gcc hello.c -o hello -static
$ ./hello
Hello world
and building without -static completes with no error, but produces an unusable
binary:
$ /usr/local/musl/bin/musl-gcc hello.c -o hello
$ file hello
hello: ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1, not stripped
$ ldd hello
statically linked
$ ./hello
zsh: no such file or directory: ./hello
Any idea about any of those problems/oddities?
