Building Android from sources: unsupported reloc 43

Question

When I\'m compiling Android 5.1.1, I get dozens of errors like this:

...

...
libnativehelper/JniInvocation.cpp:1

It works to me:
in file /art/build/Android.common_build.mk, find out:

# Host.
ART_HOST_CLANG := false
ifneq ($(WITHOUT_HOST_CLANG),true)
  # By default, host builds use clang for better warnings.
  ART_HOST_CLANG := true
endif

change to :

# Host.
ART_HOST_CLANG := false
ifeq ($(WITHOUT_HOST_CLANG),false)
  # By default, host builds use clang for better warnings.
  ART_HOST_CLANG := true
endif

If it still not works,try this in your android root path: cp /usr/bin/ld.gold prebuilts/gcc/linux-x86/host/x86_64-linux-glibc2.11-4.6/x86_64-linux/bin/ld
