--- Comment #1 from Nick Clifton <nickc at redhat dot com> --- Hi Eyal, Yes, the linker could suppress these warnings. But the important point is that it is not at all clear that the linker should suppress them. The warnings are important, and the real way to get rid of them is to fix the code that is triggering them. Now I appreciate that this is not always possible. But as pointed out in PR 12017 there are several ways to work around the problem without modifying the linker. My stance is: why introduce new code, and potentially new bugs, to the linker when there are other ways of solving the problem. So, if you do want to get a change like this in, I think that you are going to need to drum up some support from the community. If enough people agree with you, then I will make the necessary changes. One important point however is that you ought to make sure that the LLVM community agrees with the idea too, and that they are willing to put it into their linker (LLD).
