Hi, Please remove the -DENABLE_SDL=TRUE, as it’s been deprecated on Linux, so libevdev will be used instead. Also, have a run of namcap on the generated packages, you are missing things like hicolor-icon-theme or a .install script to run xdg-icon-resource. Thanks.

Thanks for adding the "-fno-pie" flag. I've been relying on customize-pkg to patch the PKGBUILD for a while now seeing as this modification was previously refused. Now Dolphin-git can be compiled and run without this annoying bug.

Thanks for the explanation, we do have ASLR enabled by default, I guess my play sessions were just never long enough to trigger the error.

Due to how memory allocation works, especially on a system without ASLR enabled. You may get lucky up until a point and it would be allocating memory in the virtual memory space <4GB. Eventually this memory space will be exhausted and then at that point Dolphin will spit out an error. So there is a variety of factors that can cause it to break immediately or still take a decent amount of play time due to luck.

Thanks for the info. I still can't help but wonder, if it completely breaks CPU emulation, why is it I have never experienced the issue nor got any bug report for the stable package in [community]? Does it really affect everyone or only a subset? FTR, I have never explicitely enabled PIE, it's on by default, you might want to consider disabling it by default on everything not AArch64. Anyway, just pushed an updated PKGBUILD.

Hello. Dolphin emulator developer here. I made an account on this just for this. We've had dozens of users come to our IRC channel complaining about this. To the point that I've been copy and pasting the new cmake command required to work around this issue. Your enabling PIE fundamentally breaks our x86_64 CPU recompiler. It isn't just "one" person having an issue with it. It completely breaks our CPU emulation! It's easy enough to figure this out by attempting to launch any game with the version you compile! So please, disable PIE like we require and hopefully in the future when someone decides to take the time to finish the work on x86_64 PIE support then you'll be able to re-enable the PIE flag. Also another FYI. You /can/ enable pie on AArch64 builds of Dolphin if you so want. It's only the x86_64 architecture that mandates the feature to be disabled.

Not sure what you mean by "none of the other flasg are needed", also LTO does not slow down at compile time, it's called _link time_ optimization for a reason. Finally, this has been discussed before, I'm not sacrificing pie because one in a hundred people has troubles with it.

Needed to add -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS='fno-pie' and -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS='fno-pie' for it not to break when running games throwing writerest errors and crashing. None of the other flags are needed. LTO slows down compile.

Thank you alucryd.

Apologies for the late update, unfortunately I'm incredibly busy these days. The qt build was renamed qt2, updated the PKGBUILD accordingly.
