Recent distro builds of GCC 6 enable PIE linking by default, and allow the previous behavior to be restored by passing the -no-pie command line argument. Support for this was implemented by commits 1894a7c64c0a and 3380a591232d but unfortunately, it turns out that GCC 5 does not support this command line argument, and exits with an error. To avoid the need for yet another toolchain tag, to distinguish between GCC 5 and GCC 6, let's use our GCC linker scripts when building objects from .aslc files. This will ensure that the extra sections that are added by the PIE linker are discarded from the ELF binary, and so they will not corrupt the resulting .acpi file. This reverts 1894a7c64c0a BaseTools/tools_def AARCH64 ARM: disable PIE linking 3380a591232d BaseTools/tools_def AARCH64 ARM: disable PIE linking for .aslc sources Contributed-under: TianoCore Contribution Agreement 1.1 Signed-off-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Tested-by: Marcin Wojtas <mw@semihalf.com> Reviewed-by: Liming Gao <liming.gao@intel.com>
This directory contains the next generation of EDK II build tools and template files. Templates are located in the Conf directory, while the tools executables for Microsoft Windows 32-bit Operating Systems are located in the Bin\Win32 directory, other directory contatins tools source. 1. Build step to generate the binary tools. === Windows/Visual Studio Notes === To build the BaseTools, you should run the standard vsvars32.bat script from your preferred Visual Studio installation or you can run get_vsvars.bat to use latest automatically detected version. In addition to this, you should set the following environment variables: * EDK_TOOLS_PATH - Path to the BaseTools sub directory under the edk2 tree * BASE_TOOLS_PATH - The directory where the BaseTools source is located. (It is the same directory where this README.txt is located.) * PYTHON_FREEZER_PATH - Path to where the python freezer tool is installed After this, you can run the toolsetup.bat file, which is in the same directory as this file. It should setup the remainder of the environment, and build the tools if necessary. Please also refer to the 'BuildNotes.txt' file for more information on building under Windows. === Unix-like operating systems === To build on Unix-like operating systems, you only need to type 'make' in the base directory of the project. === Ubuntu Notes === On Ubuntu, the following command should install all the necessary build packages to build all the C BaseTools: sudo apt-get install build-essential uuid-dev === Python sqlite3 module === On Windows, the cx_freeze will not copy the sqlite3.dll to the frozen binary directory (the same directory as build.exe and GenFds.exe). Please copy it manually from <PythonHome>\DLLs. The Python distributed with most recent Linux will have sqlite3 module built in. If not, please install sqlit3 package separately. 26-OCT-2011
