            Bug ID: 42008
           Summary: Support for .gnu.warning. section to generate linker
                    warnings
           Product: lld
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: ELF
          Assignee: [email protected]

I recently tried to use the .gnu.warning mechanism with LLD and noticed that it
is not supported.

If I try the example from
http://ninjalj.blogspot.com/2011/11/your-own-linker-warnings-using-gnu.html, I
only get output with ld.bfd.
$ $LLVM_BUILD/bin/clang -fuse-ld=$LLVM_BUILD/bin/ld.lld -o linkwarn linkwarn.o
linkwarnmain.o
 (no output)
$ $LLVM_BUILD/bin/clang -fuse-ld=/usr/bin/ld.bfd -o linkwarn linkwarn.o
linkwarnmain.o
linkwarnmain.o: In function `main':
linkwarnmain.c:(.text+0x10): warning: foo is deprecated, please use the shiny
new foobar function

Looking for .gnu.warning in the source tree, I can only find references in
llvm-objcopy. Is this a feature that should be supported in LLD?
