tools: mold: update to 2.1.0

2023-08-14T18:14:49Z

v2.0.0: - transition from AGPL to MIT - Previously, mold could not produce an object file with more than 65520 sections using the --relocatable option. Now the bug has been fixed. - mold now interprets -undefined as a synonym for --undefined instead of -u ndefined. This seems inconsistent, as -ufoo is generally treated as -u foo (which is an alias for --undefined foo), but this is the behavior of the GNU linkers and LLVM lld, so we prioritize compatibility over consistency. - -nopie is now handled as a synonym for --no-pie. - [RISC-V] R_RISCV_SET_ULEB128 and R_RISCV_SUB_ULEB128 relocation types are now supported (4bffe26, 1ac5fe7) - [PPC64] R_PPC64_REL32 relocation type is now supported. (ebd780e) v2.1.0: - Loongson's LoongArch CPU has been supported. (03b1a1c) - -z nosectionheader has been added to eliminate section headers from the output file. (084ca55) - Previously, linking with the -z pack-relative-relocs option produces an executable that glibc 2.38 refuses to run with DT_RELR without GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR dependency error. Now, mold produces binaries compatible with glibc 2.38. (f467ad1) - [ARM64] R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21_NC relocation type has been supported. (17a5c3e) - [ARM64] R_AARCH64_MOVW_UABS_G3 relocation type has now been handled as a PLT-generating relocation to fix an issue when main is not defined in the main executable but rather in a .so file. (e764557) - [RISC-V] We now merge input .riscv.attributes contents. Previously, we just concatenated them. (aa64491) Signed-off-by: Andre Heider

tools: add mold, a modern linker

2023-07-04T18:25:40Z

mold is a faster drop-in replacement for existing Unix linkers. A single binary is able to link various targets, which is why this lives in tools/. All toolchain builds then just need to copy the linker over, hence avoiding multiple builds with the same outcome. Signed-off-by: Andre Heider
