Rafael Espindola 438900938c Optimize linkonce_odr unnamed_addr functions during LTO. Generalize the API so we can distinguish symbols that are needed just for a DSO symbol table from those that are used from some native .o. The symbols that are only wanted for the dso symbol table can be dropped if llvm can prove every other dso has a copy (linkonce_odr) and the address is not important (unnamed_addr). git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@191922 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8		2013-10-03 18:29:09 +00:00

README.txt

This directory contains a plugin that is designed to work with binutils
gold linker. At present time, this is not the default linker in
binutils, and the default build of gold does not support plugins.

Obtaining binutils:

  cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:anoncvs@sourceware.org:/cvs/src login
  {enter "anoncvs" as the password}
  cvs -z 9 -d :pserver:anoncvs@sourceware.org:/cvs/src co binutils

This will create a src/ directory. Make a build/ directory and from
there configure binutils with "../src/configure --enable-gold --enable-plugins".
Then build binutils with "make all-gold".

To build the LLVMgold plugin, configure LLVM with the option
--with-binutils-include=/path/to/binutils/src/include/ --enable-pic. To use the
plugin, run "ld-new --plugin /path/to/LLVMgold.so".
Without PIC libLTO and LLVMgold are not being built (because they would fail
link on x86-64 with a relocation error: PIC and non-PIC can't be combined).
As an alternative to passing --enable-pic, you can use 'make ENABLE_PIC=1' in
your entire LLVM build.
