Hi Guys ,
We are trying to enable LTO on our code base for clang(3.8) using
gold linker , and we are stuck with below error
bash-4.1$ /arm-install/bin/armeb-linux-gnueabi-ld.gold --be8
/arm-install/bin/armeb-linux-gnueabi-ld.gold: --be8: unknown option
And found that ,Be8 (byte invariant addressing) is not supported in
the gold linker,
Questions is ,how do we go from here ?
Do be8 format is very mandatory for armv7(big endian) ? Or we can
proceed without âbe8 option ??
Or What else options we have
Any comments or suggestion are appreciated here guys ??
Thank you
~Umesh
