Hello,
I would say that we aren't against taking in variables on the configure
command line for setting executables to use in the build, as that's a
well established standard way of doing just that with Autoconf. The
built in Autoconf macros for CC and similar executables pick up such
variabl
Hi!
I believe it's not a hard requirement that special variables can't be used,
just that it's strongly discouraged in favour of configure options. I'm not
sure if we support linker combinations other than the one the compiler
comes with, the extent of my knowledge is that I think Oracle uses gold
Hi!
The patch I mentioned in last message will first try to resolve the full,
absolute path of lld, and use --ld-path to pass the path to Clang. It should
have the same effect as passing -fuse-ld=lld. If it failed to do so, it will
fallback to use -fuse-ld=lld to let Clang pick up the proper li
Hi!
Currently, when --with-toolchain-type=clang is set, the OpenJDK build system
will force the C++ compiler to use LLD as linker [1].
However, Clang works with other linkers and other linkers work with Clang. LLD
should not be the only possible linker.
Thus I propose a patch [2], which makes
Hi! Welcome to OpenJDK!
I believe clang being forced to use lld is by design, in
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/19456 this was done to make handling of
command lines easier in the build system. Changing this to be flexible is
probably still possible, but will involve some more work than just
