AIX上的proftpd的静态编译

本文介绍了AIX上的proftpd的静态编译的处理方法，对大家解决问题具有一定的参考价值，需要的朋友们下面随着小编来一起学习吧！ 问题描述

我想收集关于AIX的proftpd，使其部署其他服务器上，无需重新安装所有的GNU LIB库中的每个服务器上。结果我已经设法dynamicaly编译它，但我可以' t管理使用选项编译

LDFLAG = - Wl，-static

像官方proftpd文档中的建议。 这里的config.log错误我得到

PS：我已经尝试了-Bstatic -all-static和-static标志，但它们被忽略。

可能的答案

我的一部分解决方案是修改libpath以添加一个文件夹到这里，我将所有的lib包装作为tar文件，并部署带有lib内部的proftpd安装文件夹，它不干净，但它工作：

LDFLAGS = -Wl，-blibpath：/ a / new / lib / path

我不验证我的答案因为它不是真正的答案，但可以帮助一些你。

PS：请注意，这适用于IBM XL C编译器，并且也应该在GCC上工作

解决方案

configure脚本的输出显示：

configure：2691：gcc -Wl，-static conftest.c>& 5 ld：0706-012无法识别-t标志。 ld：0706-012无法识别-a标志。 ld：0706-012无法识别-t标志。 ld：0706-027 -i标志被忽略。 ld：0706-012无法识别-c标志。 collect2：ld返回255退出状态

这表示 -Wl 选项成功将选项传递给ld，但ld无法识别该选项。在使用AIX ld时，需要使用链接行使用 -dn 以及 -bsvr4 例如flags选项应该读为 -Wl，-bsvr4 -Wl，-dn 。

在AIX上的 ld 手册页末尾说明：

每当安装更新的操作系统版本时，应用程序也必须重新链接。任何静态链接的应用程序不是从任何修订或发行版级别到任何其他修订或发行版级别的二进制可移植。

proftpd的最终链接行的复杂性，可以使用选项 -bstatic 和 -bdynamic 来提示加载特定项目的静态库;所以在我的情况下，我的最终链接行看起来像：

gcc -o proftpd< -L / home / user / Development / experiments / proftpd-1.3.4d / lib -lsupp -lcrypt -ldl -L / home / user / Development / experiments / proftpd-1.3.4d / lib / libcap -lcap -lpam

现在在这种情况下，这意味着它依赖于libcrypt，这不是默认提供的库，因此我rejig链接线，使它有 -lcrypt 包裹：

-Wl，-bstatic -lcrypt -Wl，-bdynamic

现在它链接到静态版本

作为附件，你应该只静态链接库中的库默认情况下在所讨论的操作系统上运行，我注意到proftpd支持动态加载模块，这意味着你应该只静态链接所需的模块。

，但是，如果您正在构建为在另一个系统上部署，我建议您创建仅使用依赖库的静态副本，并显式将它们传递到配置选项。这会使构建环境与运行时环境保持一致。

I'd like to compile proftpd on AIX to make it deployable on other server without having to reinstall all gnu lib library on each server. I already manage to compile it dynamicaly, but I can't manage to get it compile with the option

LDFLAG="-Wl,-static"

like advise in the official proftpd documentation. here the config.log error I get

PS: I already try -Bstatic -all-static and -static flags but they are ignored.

Possible answer

Part of solution for me is modyfing the libpath to add a folder to this where I will put all the lib to pack it as a tar file and deploy the proftpd installation folder with the lib inside, it's not clean but it does work:

LDFLAGS="-Wl,-blibpath:/a/new/lib/path"

I do not validate my answer as it's not the real answer but that could help some of you.

PS: Please take into account that this is working with IBM XL C Compiler and should work on GCC as well

解决方案

The output of the configure script shows:

configure:2691: gcc -Wl,-static conftest.c >&5 ld: 0706-012 The -t flag is not recognized. ld: 0706-012 The -a flag is not recognized. ld: 0706-012 The -t flag is not recognized. ld: 0706-027 The -i flag is ignored. ld: 0706-012 The -c flag is not recognized. collect2: ld returned 255 exit status

This indicates that the -Wl option is successfully passing the option to ld, but ld does not recognize the option. As you're using AIX ld, it requires using -dn along with -bsvr4 with the link line, so, for example the flags option should read -Wl,-bsvr4 -Wl,-dn.

There is a note at the end of the man page for ld on AIX which states that:

The application can also have to be linked again whenever an updated release of the operating system is installed. Any application that is statically linked is not binary portable from any fix or release level to any other fix or release level.

Depending on the complexity of the final link line for proftpd, you can use the options -bstatic and -bdynamic to prompt the loading of static libraries for specific items; so in my case my final link line looked like:

gcc -o proftpd <lots of .o files> -L/home/user/Development/experiments/proftpd-1.3.4d/lib -lsupp -lcrypt -ldl -L/home/user/Development/experiments/proftpd-1.3.4d/lib/libcap -lcap -lpam

Now in this case, it means that it depends on libcrypt, which isn't a default shipped library, so I rejig the link line so that it has the -lcrypt wrapped:

-Wl,-bstatic -lcrypt -Wl,-bdynamic

and now it links with the static version of the crypt library, and no longer mentions it as part of the run-time link dependencies.

As an addenda to this, you should only static link the libraries that aren't shipped by default on the OS in question, and I note that proftpd supports dynamically loading modules, which means that you should only statically link the required modules.

In general, though, if you're building to deploy on another system, I would advise creating static-only copies of the dependent libraries that you're using and explicitly pass them into the configure options. This keeps the build environment clean from the run-time environment.
