This allows the input section matching algorithm to be separated from output section descriptions. This allows a group of sections to be assigned to multiple output sections, providing an explicit version of --enable-non-contiguous-regions's spilling that doesn't require altering global linker script matching behavior with a flag. It also makes the linker script language more expressive even if spilling is not intended, since input section matching can be done in a different order than sections are placed in an output section. The implementation reuses the backend mechanism provided by --enable-non-contiguous-regions, so it has roughly similar semantics and limitations. In particular, sections cannot be spilled into or out of INSERT, OVERWRITE_SECTIONS, or /DISCARD/. The former two aren't intrinsic, so it may be possible to relax those restrictions later.
lld Documentation ================= The lld documentation is written using the Sphinx documentation generator. It is currently tested with Sphinx 1.1.3. We currently use the 'nature' theme and a Beaker inspired structure. See sphinx_intro.rst for more details.
