# This script handles linking the tool executables on FreeBSD,
# statically and at an alternative load address.
#
# Linking statically sidesteps all sorts of complications to do with
# having two copies of the dynamic linker (valgrind's and the
# client's) coexisting in the same process. The alternative load
# address is needed because Valgrind itself will load the client at
# whatever address it specifies, which is almost invariably the
# default load address. Hence we can't allow Valgrind itself (viz,
# the tool executable) to be loaded at that address.
#
# Unfortunately there's no standard way to do 'static link at
# alternative address', so these link_tool_exe_*.in scripts handle
# the per-platform hoop-jumping.
#
# What we get passed here is:
# first arg
# the alternative load address
# all the rest of the args
# the compiler invocation to do the final link, that
# the build system would have done, left to itself
#
# We just let the script 'die' if something is wrong, rather than do
# proper error reporting. We don't expect the users to run this
# directly. It is only run as part of the build process, with
# carefully constrained inputs.
#
# FreeBSD specific complications:
#
# - in the initial version of this file, the linker(s) it was targeted
# at supported only -Ttext to load the code at an alternative address,
# and did not require removing the build notes in order to function
# correctly, so the work done by configure to determine what should go
# into the FLAG_T_TEXT was ignored.
#
# - LLVM's ld.lld, for at least versions 8.0 (shipping with FreeBSD 12.1)
# and 9.0 support the -Ttext option and behave as desired. As of
# LLVM ld.lld version 10.0 a breaking change made -Ttext unusable,
# however the --image-base option has the desired semantics.
# It turns out that ld.lld has supported --image-base since at least
# as far back as version 8.0.
#
# So: what we actually do:
#
# pass the specified command to the linker as-is, except, add
# "-static" and the value of FLAG_T_TEXT as determined by configure.
# Previously we did this by adding these options after the first
# word of the rest of the arguments, which works in the common case
# when it's something like "gcc". But the linker invocation itself
# might be multiple words, say if it's "ccache gcc". So we now put
# the new options at the end instead.
