From 50e31375639c02e57df6e316264f216aed072253 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sami Tolvanen Date: Wed, 1 Nov 2017 08:42:49 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] FROMLIST: arm64: explicitly pass --no-fix-cortex-a53-843419 to GNU gold Some versions of GNU gold are known to produce broken code with --fix-cortex-a53-843419 as explained in this bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21491 If ARM64_ERRATUM_843419 is disabled and we're using GNU gold, pass --no-fix-cortex-a53-843419 to the linker to ensure the erratum fix is not used even if the linker is configured to enable it by default. This change also adds a warning if the erratum fix is enabled and gold version <1.14 is used.
