Oh, according to
http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project/lld/trunk/lib/ReaderWriter/ELF/, LLD
only support very few architectures: ARM, ARM64, X86, Mips & Hexagon.
Meanwhile, LLVM has assemblers for many other architectures: SystemZ,
XCore, PPC, Sparc, etc

Does this mean LLD is very much behind LLVM in development?


Thanks.
