-Subject: [PATCH] Link mcaptest with -lrt when needed
-
-The mcaptest tool uses the profiles/health/mcap.c source file, which
-calls clock_getres(). This function is defined in librt in some C
-libraries, so mcaptest should be linked against librt when needed,
-otherwise one gets link failures such as:
-
-ld: profiles/health/mcap.o: undefined reference to symbol 'clock_getres@@GLIBC_2.2.5'
-ld: note: 'clock_getres@@GLIBC_2.2.5' is defined in DSO [...]/sysroot/lib64/librt.so.1 so try adding it to the linker command line
-[...]/sysroot/lib64/librt.so.1: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
-collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
-Makefile:4184: recipe for target 'tools/mcaptest' failed

-Subject: [PATCH] src/shared/ecc.c: include <config.h>
-
-The ecc.c file forgets to include <config.h>. This causes build
-failures with certain C libraries, because ecc.c uses O_CLOEXEC, which
-is only available when _GNU_SOURCE is defined. And _GNU_SOURCE gets
-defined by <config.h>, so it should be included.
