That option tells the linker + to combine input object files into another object file instead of into an + executable or a shared library file. mold has been supporting the feature since + version 0.9, but until now the output file created with -r looked fairly + different from what GNU linkers would produce. GHC (Glasgow Haskell Compiler) in + particular uses re-linkable object files as dynamic libraries instead of real + .so files, and it didn't work with mold. Now, mold can produce object files that + GHC can load. Note that this work was funded by Mercury, so thanks to the + company to help us improve the product. (Yes, you can ask us to prioritize your + feature request by funding the project.) (c9a7ae7) + * --relocatable-merge-sections option has been added. By default, mold keeps + original input section names for the --relocatable output and therefore does not + merge input sections into a single output sections unless they are of the same + name. If --relocatable-merge-sections is given, mold merges input by the usual + default merging rule. For example, .text.foo and .text.bar are merged to .text + if and only if --relocatable-merge-sections is given for the --relocatable + output. (c2a0ae1) + * -z [no]dynamic-undefined-weak options have been added. This option controls + whether an undefined weak symbol is promoted to a dynamic symbol or not. + (ed235f3) + * --[no-]undefined-version options have been supported. Now, mold warns on a + symbol name in a version script if it does not match with any defined symbol. + This change was made so that it is easy to find a typo in a version script. + (e2d7353) + * mold now warns on symbol type mismatch. If two object files have the same symbol + with different symbol types, it usually means your program has a bug. Chances + are, you are using the same identifier as a function name in one translation + unit and as a global variable name in another. So it makes sense to warn on the + mismatch. (b70211e) + * mold now merges .gnu.note.property sections for various x86 properties. + (d30d743) + * The experimental macOS/iOS support has been removed from mold. If you want to + use it, please use our sold linker instead. + * --wrap now works with LTO. (07d8911) + * A global variable initialized with an IFUNC function pointer is now initialized + correctly with the function's address. Previously, it was mistakenly initialized + to the function resolver's address. (b2858d2) + * The filename specified by --version-script or --dynamic-list is now searched + from library search paths if it does not exist in the current working directory. + This behavior is compatible with GNU linkers. (3c1a055, 8c87f16) + * mold now tries to avoid creating copy relocations as much as possible. This + change fixed a compatibility issue with GHC. (5866c9e) + * Thread-local variables are now correctly aligned even if there's a TLV with a + large alignment. (bd46edf) + * mold can now handle GCC LTO files created with -ffat-lto-objects. (804b843) + * mold now accepts -z nopack-relative-relocs as an alias for + --pack-dyn-relocs=none for the sake of compatibility with GNU linkers. (b510588) + * mold now recognizes -z start-stop-visibility=hidden but ignores it because it's + the default for mold. GNU linkers support this option to control the visibility + of linker-synthesized __start_<sectname> and __stop_<sectname> symbols, with + global as the default visibility. mold creates these symbols with the hidden + visibility by default, which is desirable for almost all cases. (22c9ec8) + * [ARM32, i386] mold now emits REL-type relocations instead of RELA-type for the + --relocatable output file.
