LLD: time to enable --threads by default
Interesting. Might be worth giving a try again to the idea of creating the file in anonymous memory and using a write to output it.

LLD: time to enable --threads by default
SHA1 in LLVM is *very* naive, any improvement is welcome there! It think Amaury pointed it originally and he had an alternative implementation IIRC. — Mehdi > On Nov 16, 2016, at 3:58 PM, Rui Ueyama via llvm-dev <llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org> wrote: > > By the way, while running benchmark, I found that our SHA1 function seems much slower than the one in gold. gold slowed down by

A couple metrics of LLD/ELF's performance
These numbers were collected on Rafael's clang-fsds test case (however, I removed -O3 and --gc-sections) with a command like: ``` sudo perf record --event=cache-misses --call-graph=dwarf -- /home/sean/pg/llvm/release/bin/ld.lld @response.txt -o /tmp/t --no-threads ``` And then ``` sudo perf report --no-children --sort dso,srcfile ``` One annoying thing about these numbers from perf is that

Embedding LLD version to executables
I'd like to make LLD embed version information so that we can determine if an executable was created by LLD and if that's the case which version of LLD. ld.bfd doesn't seem to embed any information, so we cannot tell whether an executable was linked by ld.bfd or not easily. ld.gold embeds a string "GNU gold <version>" as ".note.gnu.gold-version" section

Embedding LLD version to executables
Hi, > Scenario 1: you added -fuse-ld=lld to your command line, but you are suspecting that the option is ignored. Currently, it's actually surprisingly hard to tell if an output was created by LLD. Can't you use -v to see what linker the compiler driver invoked? On Wed, Oct 19, 2016 at 4:41 AM, Rui Ueyama via llvm-dev < llvm-dev at lists.llvm.org> wrote: > On Tue, Oct 18,

Please dogfood LLD
I personally haven't tried gdb_index, and I don't know the quality of the produced index. Most of the code was written by George. One thing I noticed about the feature (and filed as http://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32228) is that our gdb_index feature is much slower than the gold. Apparently there's room for improvement.

What program did you use to test the feature, and what was missing information? I'd like to file that as a bug so that we can fix this later.

lld: --start-lib and --end-lib
Rafael, You seems to be the person who added --start-lib and --end-lib to gold (*1), so I think you are the best person to ask about it. :) What is the intended use case of the options? Do you think we should support that in LLD? If we want to support that, then I think we can think of two implementation strategies: - Link object files between --start-lib and --end-lib normally and garbage
