While this is the original error message I reported, I think it would be better to explain that lld actually does support linking big-endian kernels but they don't boot, for unknown reasons. I can send a patch to address the build error and mark big-endian as "depends on !LD_IS_LLD || COMPILE_TEST" to reflect that and help with randconfig testing. Arnd
