[LLVM-493] LLD link failure on KASLR for AArch64 Linux kernel The linux kernel can build in an ASLR mode that is currently causing LLD some problems. There are a few oddities in the kernel that aren't quite right but there are some problems in LLD that need resolving as well. has been a couple of interesting days trying to work out why some strange options have been used.
[LLVM-484] LLD combination of dynamic relocs into a single section Committed upstream [LLVM-486] Error if user code defines _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ Committed upstream [LLVM-489] Measure (cross) linking of performance of LLD on Chrome Performance of linking AArch64 matches X86, roughly twice as fast as ld.gold and five times faster than ld.bfd. [TCWG-1492] Investigated why git-clone and git-fetch might hang/deadlock. Back up might be to put a timeout/retry. [Other] Submitted LLVM team goals for the TCWG team Wrote up how TCWG use Jenkins and CI, now in Confluence.
