After updating CUDA on my mac(Snow Leopard) nvidia's nvcc compiler acting strange, when compiling this:
nvcc batched_gemm.cu
I get the following compile error, and I have no idea how to fix the problem.
ld: unknown option: -no_pie
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Does anyone know what the problem might be?
Having done an update, I assume is to the latest stable (v4.1), so according to
NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit v4.1 Production Release Notes for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS X, CUDA Toolkit Known Issues, *MAC 10.*7:
The host linker on Mac OS 10.7 generates position-independent executables by default. As CUDA does not support position-independent executable currently, the linker must generate position-dependent executable by passing in the -no_pie option. If nvcc is being used to link the application, this option will be passed to the linker by default. To override the default behavior, the -Xlinker -pie option can be passed to nvcc.
