Unlike ObjectFile or ArchiveFile, SharedFile had two parse functions, parseSoName() and parse(). parse must have been called after parseSoName, but that requirement was not obvious from their names. (So it looked like you could call parse() on a shared object file right away.) This patch rename parseRest. It is now obvious that there's no single parse function for the shared object file. llvm-svn: 256898 |

The New ELF Linker
This directory contains a port of the new PE/COFF linker for ELF.
Overall Design
See COFF/README.md for details on the design. Note that unlike COFF, we do not distinguish chunks from input sections; they are merged together.
Capabilities
This linker can link LLVM and Clang on Linux/x86-64 or FreeBSD/x86-64 "Hello world" can be linked on Linux/PPC64 and on Linux/AArch64 or FreeBSD/AArch64.
Performance
Achieving good performance is one of our goals. It's too early to reach a conclusion, but we are optimistic about that as it currently seems to be faster than GNU gold. It will be interesting to compare when we are close to feature parity.
