mold 1.2.1 is a new release of the high-speed linker. This release contains the following bug fixes.
Bug fixes and compatibility improvements
- Various bugs in
--gdb-index
have been fixed. - mold now recognizes
--thinlto-cache-dir
and--thinlto-cache-policy
for the sake of compatibility with LLVM lld. (7ebd071) - mold can now handle TLS common symbols. It looks like GCC sometimes creates such symbol for a thread-local variable. (cf850f8)
- In some edge cases, mold created a non-versioned symbol and a versioned one for the same symbol, even though if one symbol is versioned, all symbols of the same name must be versioned. This bug has been fixed. (8298c0a)
- mold used to write a PLT address of a symbol instead of its address to
.symtab
. This bug has been fixed. (e088db7) - mold can now handle an input file with more than 219 symbols. (f1f2d40)
/usr/local/libexec/mold/ld
is now installed as a relative symlink instead of an absolute symlink. (5803c3c)
