            Bug ID: 37592
           Summary: LLD "foo.lib -wholearchive:foo.lib" doesn't work
           Product: lld
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: COFF
          Assignee: unassignedbugs at nondot.org
          Reporter: rnk at google.com
                CC: llvm-bugs at lists.llvm.org

Consider:

$ cat a.c
int foo() { return 1; }

$ cat b.c
int bar() { return 2; }

$ cat t.c
int foo();
int main() {
  return foo();
}

$ cl -c t.c a.c b.c && lld-link /LIB a.obj b.obj -out:foo.lib

As you can see from the verbose output, b.obj is not loaded, but it is if I
swap in link.exe:

$ link t.obj foo.lib -wholearchive:foo.lib -out:t.exe -verbose -nodefaultlib
-entry:main

Finished pass 1

Starting pass 2
     t.obj
     foo.lib(b.obj)
     foo.lib(a.obj)
Finished pass 2

This is causing Chromium's base_unittests tests to fail with asan, which uses
wholearchive.
