How should we handle libgfortran and libm dependencies in offloaded code?
As the linking requirements especially regarding libgfortran may be
different for each offloading target (shared and/or static libraries
supported, static linking enforced, libquadmath needed, and so on), I
think the specific configuration must happen inside the offloading
execution path (mkoffload). Thus, trying to do this inside the gfortran
front end, gcc/fortran/gfortranspec.c:lang_specific_driver etc., does not
appear to be doing it the right way; for offloaded code, we'll always be
using the lto1 front end instead of the gfortran one. Is a libgfortran
link spec like libgomp's, together with some flag (similar to
-fopenmp/-fopenacc being used with the libgomp link spec) the right thing
to do?
So I think I'm following your reasoning, and what you suggest may well
be the best solution. The question then becomes how to decide when to
pass that new flag. Have f951 put it into the options written into LTO
somehow?
