mold: A Modern Linker
https://github.com/rui314/mold
mold is a faster drop-in replacement for existing Unix linkers.
It is several times faster than LLVM lld linker, the second-fastest
open-source linker which I originally created a few years ago.
mold is created for increasing developer productivity by reducing
build time especially in rapid debug-edit-rebuild cycles.
Here is a performance comparison of GNU gold, LLVM lld, and mold for
linking final debuginfo-enabled executables of major large programs
on a simulated 8-core 16-threads machine.

- Update to version 2.1.0
* Loongson's LoongArch CPU has been supported. (03b1a1c)
* -z nosectionheader has been added to eliminate section headers from the output
file. (084ca55)
* Previously, linking with the -z pack-relative-relocs option produces an
executable that glibc 2.38 refuses to run with DT_RELR without GLIBC_ABI_DT_RELR
dependency error. Now, mold produces binaries compatible with glibc 2.38.

* [ARM64] R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21_NC relocation type has been supported.
(17a5c3e)
* [ARM64] R_AARCH64_MOVW_UABS_G3 relocation type has now been handled as a
PLT-generating relocation to fix an issue when main is not defined in the main
executable but rather in a .so file. (e764557)
* [RISC-V] We now merge input .riscv.attributes contents. Previously, we just
concatenated them. (aa64491)
