Hi Joel, Indeed, LLD is not configured to be used by default in LLVM-12.0.0-rc1. You need to add -fuse-ld=lld option for it to work. We’ll fix this in the final LLVM-12 release for WoA, which is expected in around 2 weeks.
Thanks for catching this! c:\Users\tcwg\source\maxim>..\llvm-12.0.0-rc1\bin\clang-cl.exe hello.c clang-cl: error: unable to execute command: Couldn't execute program 'C:\BuildTools\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.28.29333\bin\Hostx64\arm64\link.exe': Unknown error (0xD8) clang-cl: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation) c:\Users\tcwg\source\maxim>..\llvm-12.0.0-rc1\bin\clang-cl.exe -fuse-ld=lld hello.c c:\Users\tcwg\source\maxim>hello.exe Hello c:\Users\tcwg\source\maxim>..\llvm-12.0.0-rc1\bin\clang.exe -fuse-ld=lld hello.c c:\Users\tcwg\source\maxim>hello.exe Hello -- Maxim Kuvyrkov https://www.linaro.org > On 4 Mar 2021, at 19:43, Joel Cox <joel....@arm.com> wrote: > > Hi > > I was trying "clang hello.c" from command line, but "clang-cl hello.c" gives > me the same error.
