Realistically it doesn't need to be, despite the fact that clang wants to use it. The goal is to just have a tool that clang can use as a normal toolchain linker so we can reuse as much as possible when it comes to creating link jobs. We could stash this in `llvm/` and it wouldn't make much of a difference. Also we can probably just use the LLVM Linker API instead of `llvm-link`. Forgot to mention that as a to-do. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/112245 _______________________________________________ cfe-commits mailing list cfe-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cfe-commits
