From 13e94b11ead645d4960261e4b9747d146414e294 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Henderson Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 07:04:11 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] configure: Do not force pie=no for non-x86 PIE is supported on many other hosts besides x86. The default for non-x86 is now the same as x86: pie is used if supported, and may be forced via --enable/--disable-pie. The original commit (40d6444e91c) said: "Non-x86 are not changed, as they require TCG changes" but I think that's wrong -- there's nothing about PIE that affects TCG one way or another. Tested on aarch64 (bionic) and ppc64le (centos 7) hosts.
