TLS on x86-64 question..

[Andreas Jaeger <aj at suse dot de>]

If I compile the following small program on x86-64 (with either GCC
3.3 CVS, GCC 3.3 hammer-branch CVS or 3.4 CVS) I get the following
error:

$ /opt/gcc/3.3-devel/bin/gcc  -g -c tls.c -o tls.o -fPIC -ftls-model=local-exec
$ /opt/gcc/3.3-devel/bin/gcc -g -o tls.so -shared tls.o
/usr/bin/ld: tls.o: relocation R_X86_64_TPOFF32 can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
tls.o: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

The program is:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
static __thread int foo;

int getTLSVar(void)
{
    return foo; 
} 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This works fine on other platforms, e.g. i386.

Jakub, any ideas on this one?

Andreas
