simple patch for /usr/src/stand/i386/Makefile.inc

(In reply to oz42 from comment #3)
The patch in comment #3 is invalid, and lld supports the --no-rosegment argument; your output

> /usr/bin/ld: unrecognized option '--no-rosegment'
> /usr/bin/ld: use the --help option for usage information

is from GNU ld, so I'm not sure what is happening here.  I suggest reporting on the freebsd-stable list and asking for suggestions.
Comment 5 oz42 2019-04-23 16:38:31 UTC
Sorry, what do you mean with list?
I only can tell that my patch worked for me. I have no idea why it is choosing GNU ld.

(In reply to oz42 from comment #5)
I mean posting to the freebsd-stable mailing list is more likely to provide useful insight on build issues than a PR. https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable

You can send the output of (from the top level source directory) there:
% ld --version
% make -V LINKER_TYPE

--no-rosegment is needed for (and supported by) lld, so removing it from the lld LDFLAGS is not correct.
Comment 7 oz42 2019-04-24 10:10:08 UTC
# ld --version
LLD 6.0.1 (FreeBSD 335540-1200005) (compatible with GNU linkers)
# make -V LINKER_TYPE
lld

What I have found in the src.conf manpage:
     WITH_LLD_IS_LD
             Set to use LLVM's LLD as the system linker, instead of GNU
             binutils ld.

             This is a default setting on amd64/amd64, arm/armv7 and
             arm64/aarch64.

So this is not default on i386?
Comment 8 oz42 2019-04-25 07:24:53 UTC
This is from a machine that had built world successfully once (with my patch).

On a stock system, /usr/bin/ld ist GNU ld:

# ld --version
GNU ld 2.17.50 [FreeBSD] 2007-07-03
# make -V LINKER_TYPE
bfd
Comment 9 oz42 2019-06-17 08:47:31 UTC
The following does not change anything, I assume some Makefiles will have to be corrected.

setting LD to /usr/bin/ld.lld
adding LD=/usr/bin/ld.lld to make.conf
adding WITH_LLD_IS_LD=YES to src.conf

Workaround:

root@fb-12-0:/usr/src/stand/i386/mbr # cd /usr/bin/
root@fb-12-0:/usr/bin # rm ld
root@fb-12-0:/usr/bin # ln -s ld.lld ld
