    # background

Everything I can find is using clang.... which I do not want to do here. 

I am calling `lld::elf::link` via ctypes in python. Linking works, but the binary that is generated gives me a segfault or "accessing a corrupted shared library".

the command I am running looks similar to `ld.lld -o tests/output tests/output.o <additional args>`

I am using 64 bit arch linux (`uname -r` gives `6.1.6-arch1-3`) and I am using LLVM11.

# My actual question

I have been trying for 2 days at this, but I am an absolute idiot when it comes to linking, compiling, etc. I honestly just need a working example command. I've turned the following ir into an ELF object file:
```llvm
; ModuleID = '<string>'
source_filename = "<string>"
target triple = "x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu"

declare i32 @printf(i8*, ...)

declare void @exit(i32)

declare void @sleep(i32)

declare void @usleep(i32)

; Function Attrs: nounwind
define i32 @main() #0 {
entry:
  ret i32 0
}

attributes #0 = { nounwind }
```
 Once I try to link this, the linker happily spits out a binary, but that binary is useless.
 
 Can I get an example command that would make this work on my OS (or similar linux OS)?
 
 Thanks in advance, I am sorry for the noob question. I just cannot figure this out, and the amount of documentation I can find on lld is close to zero.
