Subject: [PATCH] Don't use PLT nor GOT in libc.a [BZ #20750]
Date: Fri, 04 Nov 2016 17:47:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20161104174739.GA5880@intel.com> (raw)

There is no need to use PLT nor GOT in libc.a to branch to a function,
regardless whether libc.a is compiled with PIC or not.

Tested on x86-64.  OK for master?

H.J.

	of PIC.
