the following patch was just integrated into master: commit f33e395213f0516a9256f33ede4c6bba3babb0e9 Author: Patrick Georgi patrick@georgi-clan.de Date: Sun Nov 25 17:10:47 2012 +0100
build system: Split linking into multiple steps
After collecting dependencies for ramstage, add an intermediate step in which object files are linked per directory. The results are then linked into the final binary.
This reduces the maximum command line length and might also help with future use of LTO linking.
Also adapt the lint test for build dir handling, since printall doesn't provide individual object files for ramstage anymore.
