Linker
emulation selection
A linker
emulation is a personality of the linker, giving the linker default
values for the other aspects of the target system.
In particular, it consists
of the linker script, the target and several hook functions (which
are run at certain stages of the linking process to do special things that
some targets require).
The command to list valid
linker emulation values is ld
-V.
Sample values: ‘hp300bsd’,
‘mipslit’,
‘sun4’.
Ways to specify:
-
command line option, -m
(see Command
line options in Using ld)
-
environment variable, LDEMULATION
-
compiled-in DEFAULT_EMULATION
from Makefile
which comes from EMUL
in ‘config/target.mt’
