https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=237676 Bug ID: 237676 Summary: [Minor] LLD Filesize and default option suggestions Product: Base System Version: 12.0-RELEASE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: pprocacci@gmail.com The .comment section added by lld should be removed and made optional. The file size using lld is unacceptable (some still use assembly) for embedded stuff. The default is 1200% larger by default and should be minimal like gnu ld. # /usr/local/bin/ld -s -o porcupine porcupine.o # ld --discard-all -o porcupine.lld -m elf_amd64_fbsd porcupine.o # strip porcupine.lld # objcopy --remove-section .comment porcupine.lld # ls -l porcupine porcupine.lld -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 352 Apr 30 23:41 porcupine -rwxr-xr-x 1 root wheel 4320 Apr 30 23:41 porcupine.lld Specifying `-m elf_amd64_fbsd` or similar shouldn't be necessary and should be the default (depending on platform). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.help
