I've now committed this initial version as r327770 after incorporating feedback from bjk@. We'll iterate on expanding the documentation for the individual options, and submit this upstream to lld soon.

What we have so far is in review at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D13813.

In any case, lld is otherwise close to being ready to be installed as /usr/bin/ld on FreeBSD/amd64, and I suspect we might have to just create the man page (and send it upstream). Other than the man page I'm aware of some issues with ifunc support discovered by kib@ while working on kernel ifunc. This doesn't affect FreeBSD-HEAD yet (as we don't use ifunc today) but will soon be important. There's also additional work needed for the ports tree, although right now ~99.5 of the ports collection builds when lld is /usr/bin/ld. Most ports that were failing with lld have either been fixed, or worked around via LLD_UNSAFE so that the port continues using ld.bfd. ___ freebsd-current@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-current To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-current-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

There is no manpage yet. Upstream provides a bit of Sphinx-based documentation (e.g. in .rst format), but there is no specific manpage.

LLD: man pages missing?
I have installed most recent CURRENT as of r327219 with LLD_IS_LD=YES set via /etc/src.conf. I try to find some options and tried "man ld", "man lld" and "ld.lld". In the the latter two cases there can nothing be found on the system and man ld always seems to refer to the GNU linker - which is, I believe, the linker reached by /usr/bin/ld.bfd. There is also a linker "ld" in /usr/local/bin/ld from binutils-2.28,1. Can someone help? Thnaks, oh -- O.
