[LLVMdev] dynamic linkage for jit

[Charllls Alquarra]

Sorry if it comes out a bit pushy bumping my own question, but it's been really difficult to find any info regarding this functionality
in the mailing list archives. Just some emails i've found from people working on NaCl:

is there a branch where this is being work on, or is internal chromium project so far? Also i'm not sure if this is exactly the same as what i'm looking for,
but it sounds similar enough

Hi,

I want to execute functions in a module, this module will have dependencies resolved in other modules. the modules might change (dynamic compilation environment) so i would prefer not not link all the dependencies in a single monolithic module, that is, if it can be avoided

I hope to use Linker::linkModules but this is always destructive. That is ok for one module depending on a single one, since if that one changed, is no big deal, but isn't it overkill to rebuild and relink N-1 modules that did not change just because of a single one that changed?

I wonder if there is a non-destructive version of linkModules that can work for JIT execution.
