[LLVMdev] Current state of the lld project

[Shankar Easwaran]

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for testing lld on windows.  This is really useful.

On the status page, we are consistently testing Linux binaries with ELF 
to work on x86_64.

They also work on other architectures too like Hexagon.

Currently the windows link flavor doesnot handle targets, I am not sure 
of what kind of binaries it can run, but I have heard that it can build 
windows binaries and run them. I am adding Ruiu here, who has been 
working on making windows work on lld.

Thanks

Shankar Easwaran
