[PULL 04/41] configure: Always detect -no-pie toolchain support
Posted by Richard Henderson 5 years, 4 months ago
The CFLAGS_NOPIE and LDFLAGS_NOPIE variables are used
in pc-bios/optionrom/Makefile, which has nothing to do
with the PIE setting of the main qemu executables.

This overrides any operating system default to build
all executables as PIE, which is important for ROMs.
