Description Ed Maste freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2018-07-30 23:46:49 UTC 
The migration to the LLVM project's lld linker as the system linker (/usr/bin/ld) for FreeBSD is in progress - it is the case for arm64 and amd64 today, and i386 will switch once ports issues are addressed - see exp-run in PR214864.

Attempting to link php produces many errors of the form:

/usr/bin/ld: error: can't create dynamic relocation R_386_32 against symbol: php_date_global_timezone_db in readonly segment; recompile object files with -fPIC
>>> defined in ext/date/.libs/php_date.o
>>> referenced by php_date.c
>>>               ext/date/.libs/php_date.o:(zif_strtotime)

This applies to lang/php56, lang/php70, lang/php71, lang/php72

  lang/php*: link with -znotext on i386

  This port links some non-PIC code, which fails with lld as it defaults
  to disallowing relocations against read-only segments. For i386 we can
  just add -znotext unconditionally: for GNU BFD ld it just affirms BFD's
  existing default.
