[PATCH] D119074: [ELF] Parse archives as --start-lib object files

[ben via Phabricator via llvm-commits]

bd1976llvm added a comment.

I am slightly concerned about penalising links with low utilisation archives. However, I don't have any specific data on low utilisation archives or any example of them. We did do some testing of a similar feature (in our proprietary linker) on game code, and low utilisation archives did not cause a problem for any of the games tested. Users should be able to create high utilisation versions of problematic archives in any case.

LGTM from me.
