[gnutls-devel] GnuTLS | relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_LD64_GOTPAGE_LO15 against symbol `_nettle_aes256_decrypt_c' (#1687)

[Read-only notification of GnuTLS library development activities]

Thomas Debesse created an issue: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/-/issues/1687



I build nettle 3.10.1 as a static library on arm64 on Debian 12 Bookworm.

Then I attempt to link the Dæmon engine against it, but I get that linkage error:

```
lib/libnettle.a(fat-arm64.o): in function `fat_init':
nettle/nettle-3.10.1/fat-arm64.c:251:(.text.startup+0x154):
 relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_LD64_GOTPAGE_LO15 against symbol `_nettle_aes256_decrypt_c'
 defined in .text section in lib/libnettle.a(aes256-decrypt.o)
/usr/bin/ld: nettle/nettle-3.10.1/fat-arm64.c:251:
 warning: too many GOT entries for -fpic, please recompile with -fPIC
```

I get the same linkage error with nettle 3.8.1 on arm64 on Debian 12 Bookworm:

```
lib/libnettle.a(fat-arm64.o): in function `fat_init':
nettle/nettle-3.8.1/fat-arm64.c:219:(.text.startup+0x154):
 relocation truncated to fit: R_AARCH64_LD64_GOTPAGE_LO15 against symbol `_nettle_aes256_decrypt_c'
 defined in .text section in lib/libnettle.a(aes256-decrypt.o)
/usr/bin/ld: nettle/nettle-3.8.1/fat-arm64.c:219:
 warning: too many GOT entries for -fpic, please recompile with -fPIC
```

But I know I don't get this error with nettle 3.8.1 when cross-compiling to arm64 on Debian 10 Buster (the cross-compiler is running on amd64).
