[Libguestfs] [PATCH nbdkit v2 4/5] configure: Add --disable-linker-script flag

This flag allows you to disable the linker script (for the server only). This is necessary for ASAN to work, and the documentation has been updated to explain how to run nbdkit under ASAN. Thanks Eric Blake for helping me with working out the root cause. --- configure.ac | 7 +++++++ README | 13 +++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 20 insertions(+) diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac index ba194781..404d4e23 100644 --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -700,6 +700,13 @@ AS_IF([test "x$enable_libfuzzer" = "xyes"],[ ]) AM_CONDITIONAL([ENABLE_LIBFUZZER],[test "x$enable_libfuzzer" = "xyes"]) +dnl Should we use the linker script with the server?
