Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/8] ld: Rename aarch64pe emulation target to arm64pe
Date: Wed, 4 Jan 2023 09:51:21 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9be055ae-bfd1-b52b-3dd7-7148a6ead287@redhat.com> (raw)

Hi Guys,

 > Nick, what do you want me to do here?

Well I still like simplicity, but in this case it seems that we need
to be little more accommodating.

> It's also worth pointing out that there's no concept of emulation aliases at the moment, so someone would have to develop and test that. 

Do we actually need an alias ?  Can't we just have arm64pe be an
extra emulation for the aarch64-*-pe target, along with the default
aarch64pe emulation ?

This would create duplicated code sure, but not too much, and it
would allow the linker to be compatible with Clang whilst still
also retaining the aarch64 moniker preferred by ARM.

Cheers
   Nick
