...command line or linker scripts, so we don’t *have* to have a way to externalize the atoms in yaml or native format. But, it would be nice to allow that, so that some future C or asm extension would let you create these. > f) What about lld core ? > g) Create a new reference type, How does (ExpressionAtom, ExpressionFunction, ExpressionConstant) this sound ? The expression could be an opaque string except that we need to validate it and we need the resolver to find the symbol names referenced in the expression. The data structure lld provides is a sequence of References. The normal data structure...
