From: Hauke Mehrtens Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2025 22:08:04 +0000 (+0100) Subject: build: Add support for linking with DT_RELR X-Git-Url: http://git.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=refs%2Fheads%2Flinking-relr;p=openwrt%2Fopenwrt.git build: Add support for linking with DT_RELR This adds the -Wl,-z,pack-relative-relocs linking options. This reduces the size of some binaries. This is only supported on i386, x86_64, aarch64 and loongarch64 in binutils. This feature is not support for MIPS. musl libc supports it since version 1.2.4 . glibc supports it since vesion 2.36. binutils ld supports it since version 2.38 for x86 and since version 2.43 for LoongArch. This reduces the size of the armsr default root file system from 5,262,198 bytes to 5,200,950 bytes by 61,248 bytes.
