Hi Guys ,

we  do have a issue with below code ,When we enabled the pie (-fpie/pie)  option
  i.e

main.c
extern int *my_ptr ;

int main()
{
    return *my_ptr;
}

foo.s
  .syntax unified
  .cpu cortex-m0
  .fpu softvfp
   .thumb
   .global my_ptr
    .global my_var
     .data
     .align  2
    .type   my_ptr, %object
    .size   my_ptr, 4
my_ptr:
   .word   my_var   //where my_var is the linker variable

custom.ld  (linker script)
/* Set stack top to end of RAM, and stack limit move down by
     190      * size of stack_dummy section */
     191     my_var = 20;
     192     __StackTop = ORIGIN(RAM) + LENGTH(RAM);
     193     __StackLimit = __StackTop - SIZEOF(.stack_dummy);
     194     PROVIDE(__stack = __StackTop);


command used

       3  arm-none-eabi-gcc -c -fPIC main.c -mthumb -mcpu=cortex-m0
       4
       5 arm-none-eabi-gcc -c -fPIC foo.S -mthumb -mcpu=cortex-m0
       6 arm-none-eabi-gcc -c -fPIC
/home/egoumal/Downloads/gcc-arm-none-eabi-5_2-2015q4/share/gcc-arm-none-eabi/samples/startup/startu
        p_ARMCM0.S -mthumb -mcpu=cortex-m0 -D__STARTUP_CLEAR_BSS
-D__START=main
       7
       8 arm-none-eabi-ld -pie main.o  foo.o startup_ARMCM0.o -L.

     m-none-eabi/samples/ldscripts -T nokeep.ld -Map=test.map -o test

we expect my_ptr value to be 20 ,but we do see the value 0 and without
pie option ,the my_ptr has the value 20 .

do we missing something here  or value 0 expected (which is incorrect)
