The configure opt is --enable-gold I think
They say it was added by google and has been in maintenance mode for years
The configure option to include it in artifacts? Is there a pull request I could make to enable that?
You have to wait until the next release
If you want directly edit buildroot https://github.com/buildroot/buildroot/tree/master/package/binutils
But I guess something like this can be added to the local config in this repo BR2_BINUTILS_EXTRA_CONFIG_OPTIONS = --enable-gold
I agree the gold linker should be included in the tarballs
It's just not clear to me how to accomplish that. Happy to help if I can.
Perhaps adding this line: BR2_BINUTILS_EXTRA_CONFIG_OPTIONS=--enable-gold
to this file
https://github.com/bootlin/toolchains-builder/blob/93f88ed30a4fd13ada7e2debf0d035855a690585/configs/optionals/*.config
I'm not sure, but you can build it yourself (./build.sh as root) and see if the gold linker appears, this project builds for many architectures, so basically that change has to be tested in all supported architectures I guess...
I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask but would it be possible to start including the gold linker in artifacts?
