...e more source modules, goto 1 I'll describe how the darwin linker uses the LTO interface. It may be amenable to earlier module deletion. 1) The darwin linker mmap()s each input file. If it is a bitcode file, it calls lto_module_create_from_memory() then lto_module_get_num_symbols() and lto_module_get_symbol_*() to discover what the module provides and needs. 2) After all object files are loaded (which means no undefined symbols are left), the linker then calls: lto_codegen_create() and then in a for-loop calls lto_codegen_add_module() on each module previously loaded. 3) After lto_codegen_compile()...
