Re: static linking libc.

Hi Daniel,

I have a problem with all my threads in a multi-threaded program dead-locking on some (cancelable) lock in ld.lib.so. At this point it

I wonder if this problem may be related to an issue that was recently fixed:

https://github.com/genodelabs/genode/commit/764a3656a1385185e635bb4fdac8e8fc...

The symptom was a deadlock in the cxx library that occurred when an exception was thrown during a memory allocation. See the comment in the commit for more details.

is difficult to tell what is happening. Is there a way to force libc to link statically?

Generally, this is possible by removing the 'SHARED_LIB = yes' declaration from the respective build-description file. In your case, that would be 'libports/lib/mk/libc.mk'.

Cheers Norman
