Some prebuilt GCC toolchains targeting aarch64 (e.g., the Debian Stretch
one) will default to building PIE executables. This has been observed to
corrupt ACPI tables built from .aslc sources, so disable PIE linking
altogether when using the GCC toolchain to build for AARCH64.

Ard:
  I see ARM and AARCH64 CC flag have -fno-pie. Does it work on the prebuilt GCC binary? And, if this change is required, why not add it for ARM_DLINK?

Out of curiosity, can this be considered the completion of commit
a6b5380642c4 ("BaseTools/GCC ARM/AARCH64: Force disable PIE", 2017-05-31)?

Thanks

Which pre-built GCC binary is that?

It depends on whether the pie-by-default policy applies to any ARM
toolchains, although we could simply add it to both once I confirm
that GCC v4.6 (or whichever version of binutils that shipped with)
does not choke on the -no-pie option.
