Force ld.bfd via --fuse-ld CFLAG
Would it make more sense to « append-cflags "-fuse-ld=bfd" », instead of complaining about gold usage, until the bug is resolved upstream?

Force ld.bfd via --fuse-ld CFLAG
Whoops! Added the patch on the wrong BUG (the patch is for - as stated by the name - grub-2
So the bug actually has two parts. Firstly, ld.gold seems to assume that -Wl,-Ttext arguments are integers, instead of hex. Looks like this can be fixed by prepending '0x' but i'll confirm after I test. Secondly, there's actually a check in ./configure to see if the linker can link using these -Ttext addresses , but for whatever reason that check is always cached and so it never fails. I've got a patch that will un-cache this check, so at least it fails at configure time in a more-obvious fashion. OK. So, grub:0 fails to work when being linked with ld.gold, looks like forcing ld.bfd is the best option. Somehow i missed that we are forcing the 'cached' value of yes for the link test in our ebuild, so there's no need for that patch, either. "Fixed" in grub-0.97-r14 Commit message: Use new toolchain helpers for selecting the bfd linker http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-boot/grub/grub-0.97-r14.ebuild?r1=1.6&r2=1.7 http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-boot/grub/grub-2.00_p5107-r2.ebuild?r1=1.9&r2=1.10 http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-boot/grub/grub-2.02_beta2-r3.ebuild?r1=1.5&r2=1.6 http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-boot/grub/grub-2.02_beta2-r6.ebuild?r1=1.3&r2=1.4 http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-boot/grub/grub-2.02_beta2-r7.ebuild?r1=1.6&r2=1.7 http://sources.gentoo.org/sys-boot/grub/grub-9999-r1.ebuild?r1=1.29&r2=1.30 |
