From 7cb714a57837f1352d737ae07b56a5ce47c40431 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Khem Raj Date: Thu, 2 Aug 2012 06:19:34 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] config: Always use GNU ld This patch makes sure that we always use the GNU ld. U-Boot uses certain construct e.g. OVERLAY which are not implemented in gold therefore it always needs GNU ld for linking. It works well if default linker in toolchain is GNU ld but in some cases we can have gold to be the default linker and also ship GNU ld but not as default in such cases its called $(PREFIX)ld.bfd, with this patch we make sure that if $(PREFIX)ld.bfd exists than we use that for our ld. This way it does not matter what the default ld is.
