When the kernel is built with CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option enabled it uses dynamic symbols, for which the linker does not allow more than 64K number of entries. This can break features like kpatch. Hence, whenever possible the kernel is built with CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option disabled. For that support of unaligned symbols generated by linker scripts in the compiler is necessary. However, older compilers might lack such support. In that case the build process resorts to CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option-enabled build. Compile object files with -fPIC option and then link the kernel binary with -no-pie linker option. As result, the dynamic symbols are not generated and not only kpatch feature succeeds, but also the whole CONFIG_PIE_BUILD option-enabled code could be dropped.
