[llvm-dev] Unable to link AVR object files with lld? (unrecognized relocation R_AVR_LO8_LDI_GS etc)
Ok that makes sense. I’m happy to try and add the relocations. I’m pretty comfortable with hacking llvm and with AVR assembly and the AVR back end in llvm. One thing I don’t understand. R_AVR_7_PCREL Is saying out of range. Is that because the implementation is there but is buggy? I thought about “branch relaxing code” issues, which is something I’ve heard of but never quite understood. However that’s a compile thing I think. Not a linker thing. The code links fine using the standard gnu linker so perhaps that’s a dead end? Secondly, are there any good resources, blogs, etc. That I can use to help learn how the linker works? Or is it just read the source code for lld and come back here if I get stuck? Final question, when it comes time to submit a patch, I’ve never really done it properly before. I used to had them to the maintainer Dylan. Who did the work of formal submission. Is there some good getting started guides for how to use Phabricator etc. Do I raise a bug on there then submit a patch there somehow?
