It's on my to-do, but I was waiting for ld.gold as well, I sent a patch for it last month but haven't received any answer yet: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-May/121060.html Reminder that this is still blocked waiting on ld.gold https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-July/122097.html Any chance the maintainers who are in RedHat could be asked to have a quick look? I can then provide the required backports for Fedora Rawhide, and then the package can use this. Nick, can you comment on comment #2 ? OK, so I try not to act as a maintainer for the upstream ld.gold linker because I am not a C++ programmer, so I am not going to review/approve Luca's upstream patch. But - I am perfectly happy to have the patches applied to the Fedora binutils. So a will do this later on today. Thanks Nick, sounds good - there was already a review from Cary Coutant: https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-July/122093.html Who else can we ask to have a look? Looking at the git log you seem to be one of the most common contributors to gold/, is there another maintainer we can ask? Fixed in binutils-2.38-23.fc37. We are working on updating the f36 and f35 binutils with the patch and they should be ready soon.

Thank you - does that include the corresponding change in ld.bfd as well? > (In reply to Luca Boccassi from comment #5) > > Thanks Nick, sounds good - there was already a review from Cary Coutant: > > https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2022-July/122093.html > > Who else can we ask to have a look?

To close the loop support in ld.gold was merged, so binutils 2.39 supports this in ld.gold and ld.bfd. FYI The patch has been backported to binutils-2.37-34.fc36 and binutils-2.37-23.fc35 |
