What is the OPTION in the GCC's option “-Wl,OPTION”?

Question

When I read the GCC\'s info manual, I found the link option -Wl,OPTION:

`-Wl,OPTION\'
 Pass OPTION as an option to the li         


        

Answer 1

It is linker options written like this (from my makefile):

FLAGS += -Wl,--enable-auto-import,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc

The linker options are listed in detail on the linker man page: ld (the GNU linker)
