Building v8 without PIC

[Noah Cantor]

My project builds v8 via gm.py. Is there a way to get it to build non-PIC (i.e. without -fPIC and -pie flags) without modifying all the BUILD.gn files under src?

I'm afraid those flags are not configurable. You'll have to edit build/config/compiler/BUILD.gn (for -fPIC) and build/config/gcc/BUILD.gn and gni/v8.gni (for -pie) -- but none of the BUILD.gn files under src :-)

Note that this is entirely independent of how you build V8; gm.py has nothing to do with it.

Obviously, if this leads to strange issues, you're on your own -- hacking the build files with your custom settings is officially unsupported. Good luck!
