These are in-progress notes for the upcoming LLVM |release| release.

Introduction
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
This document contains the release notes for the lld linker, release |release|.
|
|
Here we describe the status of lld, including major improvements
|
|
from the previous release. All lld releases may be downloaded
|
|
from the `LLVM releases web site <https://llvm.org/releases/>`_.
|
|
|
|
Non-comprehensive list of changes in this release
|
|
=================================================
|
|
|
|
ELF Improvements
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* Added ``--bp-compression-sort-section=<glob>[=<layout_priority>[=<match_priority>]]``,
|
|
replacing the old coarse ``--bp-compression-sort`` modes with a way to split
|
|
input sections into multiple compression groups, run balanced partitioning
|
|
independently per group, and leave out sections that are poor candidates for
|
|
BP.
|
|
``layout_priority`` controls group placement order (lower value = placed
|
|
first, default 0). ``match_priority`` resolves conflicts when multiple globs
|
|
match the same section (lower value = higher priority; explicit priority
|
|
beats positional last-match-wins; default: positional). In ELF, the glob
|
|
matches input section names (e.g. ``.text.unlikely.code1``).
|
|
|
|
Breaking changes
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
* The symbol partition feature has been removed. lld no longer recognizes
|
|
``SHT_LLVM_SYMPART`` sections, which are now treated as ordinary sections. The
|
|
feature saw no adoption beyond a Chromium experiment that has since been
|
|
retired.
|
|
|
|
* An OutputSection that has an address expression, and is also assigned
|
|
to a MEMORY region, will now use the address expression in preference
|
|
to the next available location in the MEMORY region. This brings LLD
|
|
in line with GNU ld, but is a change in behavior from previous LLD
|
|
releases.
|
|
|
|
COFF Improvements
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
MinGW Improvements
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
* Added ``--push-state`` and ``--pop-state``, offering the same semantics as
|
|
when used with the ELF linker: The state of ``--Bstatic``/``--Bdynamic`` and
|
|
``--whole-archive`` are pushed onto a stack and popped from it.
|
|
|
|
MachO Improvements
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
* ``--bp-compression-sort-section`` now accepts optional layout and match
|
|
priorities (same syntax as ELF). In Mach-O, the glob matches the
|
|
concatenated segment+section name (e.g. ``__TEXT__text``).
|
|
* Restructure thunk generation algorithm to be more efficiently create thunks
