Re: [OpenWrt-Devel] [RFC] mklibs.py integration
Hi all, I reworked and fixed the mklibs.py integration and it actually works now. The reported 4KB space saving in the linker binary that florian reported was just simple stripping, not actual relinking. Here are the results with a slightly-bigger-than-standard configuration on a mips target: libuClibc-0.9.30.1.so - before: 401380, after: 253512 libm-0.9.30.1.so - before: 102128, after: 46900 There is no significant space saving on the other libraries yet. - Felix ___ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel

I have not been able to strip the uClibc loader more than 4KB out of 28KB (original size) but it might significantly better results with more softare installed in the rootfs. --- Index: Config.in Doesn't mklibs.py remove portions of a library that are unused? Wouldn't that mean that fewer programs would result in more removal (due to more unused bits). Or do you strip all libraries and not just uClibc?
