Subject: [PATCH 4/4] Makefile: lld: set -O2 linker flag when linking with LLD
Date: Thu,  7 Feb 2019 14:01:52 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190207220155.81351-4-ndesaulniers@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190207220155.81351-1-ndesaulniers@google.com>

-O2 enables tail merging of string table strings.

For arm64:
0.34% size improvement with lld -O2 over lld for vmlinux.
3.30% size improvement with lld -O2 over lld for Image.lz4-dtb.
