Subject: [PATCH] Support -fuse-ld=bfd and -fuse-ld=gold
Reply-To: 

Hi,

Binutils supports 2 linkers, ld.gold and ld.bfd.  One of them is
configured as the default linker, ld, which is used by GCC.  Sometimes,
we want to use the alternate linker with GCC at run-time.  This patch
adds -fuse-ld=bfd and -fuse-ld=gold options to GCC driver.  It changes
collect2.c to pick either ld.bfd or ld.gold.  It also adds
ORIGINAL_LD_BFD_FOR_TARGET and ORIGINAL_LD_GOLD_FOR_TARGET to
exec-tool.in to add -fuse-ld=bfd and -fuse-ld=gold support to
collect-ld.  Since ld.bfd nor ld.gold know the new options, you
will get

# ./xgcc -B./  /tmp/x.c -fuse-ld=gold -v
...
./collect-ld --eh-frame-hdr -m elf_x86_64 -dynamic-linker 
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 -fuse-ld=gold /lib/../lib64/crt1.o 
/lib/../lib64/crti.o ./crtbegin.o -L. -L/lib/../lib64 -L/usr/lib/../lib64 
/tmp/cclVWcGz.o -v -lgcc --as-needed -lgcc_s --no-as-needed -lc -lgcc 
--as-needed -lgcc_s --no-as-needed ./crtend.o /lib/../lib64/crtn.o
GNU gold (Linux/GNU Binutils 2.23.51.0.7.20121127) 1.11
/usr/local/bin/ld.gold: fatal error: -f/--auxiliary may not be used without 
-shared
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

This is because we pass everything to ld and ld.bfd/ld.gold doesn't
understand -fuse-ld=bfd/-fuse-ld=gold.  It isn't a problem for collect2
since it will filter-out -fuse-ld=bfd/-fuse-ld=gold.  I will submit a
binutils patch to ignore -fuse-ld=bfd/-fuse-ld=gold, similar to -flto
options.

OK to install?

Thanks.


H.J.
