--- Comment #4 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
You need to link with -pie if you want a PIE executable. BUT that does not work
with -elf/-eabi targets as there is no loader.

Since there is no loader and shared libraries are not supported with bare
metal, you need to have a modified binutils to do the right thing and have a
correct target.
