Linker scripts also use a wide variety of keywords like :- 1) SORT 2) ALIGN 3) OVERLAY Overlays are most commonly used in embedded applications to overlay one section over the other using a custom overlay manager. You might want to look at the ELFLayout changes to see what functionality is missing from that. The ELFLayoutOptions has a hook into reading the Linker script which needs to be implemented.

Hi all, I have been investigating linker scripts and the functionality needed to support them in lld. I have attached my findings about the usage of ldscripts. My findings have been collected from: - Reading all the GNU ld manual sections about linker scripts. - Looking at the GNU ld and gold source code. - Digging through a couple embedded programming tutorials. - Reading through all of the
