Hi, It is needed that lld verifies the input to the linker. For example : a x86 ELF file can be given to lld when the target is x86_64. Similiarly with other flavors. I was thinking to have a varargs function in the LinkingContext that would be overridden by each of the LinkingContexts to verify files after being read. The reader would call the varargs function in the LinkingContext and

Hi Nick, Bigcheese, When lld is used to link C++ code, it would be required to demangle symbol names by default/user driven option. The Gnu linker has the following options :- --demangle=[style] --no-demangle I found that clang/llvm-symbolizer use __cxx_demangle function. I would think that lld also need to call the same function, and I think the way we want to demangle is to have the

Could you elaborate a bit about the issue that you are trying to solve with this suggestion?

I was thinking about this more, and perhaps a more preferable solution would have some kind of OptionGroup parameter to constructors of cl options. This would of course be optional, with the default being a global one. Then, ParseCommandLineOptions() could instead take as an optional parameter an OptionGroup, and would then only work on cl options in that group. Would this approach be preferable?

Here are a few extra attributes which I have not seen mentioned yet which I think would be useful. Any comments would be appreciated. *Version* The version of the plugin, I think the reasons for this are obvious. <version> <major>0</major> <minor>1</minor> <patch>0</patch> </version> *Addition to features* Just add an attribute to

So is for PE32 and PE32+. They cannot be mixed because they are for x86 and x86-64, respectively. I'd think we can simply wait for all files to be parsed and pass them to a LinkingContext to ask whether or not the input file set seems OK.

Reading the gnu ld man page, that is not obvious. How can you make a non-weak undefined on the command line? That is, how can you force and error

Shankar and I discussed input file handling, and we came up with a design that may greatly simplify the input file handling, while giving more flexibility to developer to support complicated options, such as --{start,end}-group, -z rescan or -z rescan-now. It'd worth pursuing, so here's the idea: 1. We wouldn't probably want to let Resolver to handle the input graph directly, for we
