Teresa Johnson 8570fe47ef [ThinLTO] Add option to emit imports files for distributed backends Summary: Add support for emission of plaintext lists of the imported files for each distributed backend compilation. Used for distributed build file staging. Invoked with new gold-plugin thinlto-emit-imports-files option, which is only valid with thinlto-index-only (i.e. for distributed builds), or from llvm-lto with new -thinlto-action=emitimports value. Depends on D19556. Reviewers: joker.eph Subscribers: llvm-commits, joker.eph Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D19636 llvm-svn: 269067		2016-05-10 15:54:09 +00:00

The LLVM Gold LTO Plugin
========================

This directory contains a plugin that is designed to work with binutils
gold linker. At present time, this is not the default linker in
binutils, and the default build of gold does not support plugins.

See docs/GoldPlugin.html for complete build and usage instructions.

NOTE: libLTO and LLVMgold aren't built without PIC because they would fail
to link on x86-64 with a relocation error: PIC and non-PIC can't be combined.
As an alternative to passing --enable-pic, you can use 'make ENABLE_PIC=1' in
your entire LLVM build.
