35.3. Linker emulation selection

A linker emulation is a “personality” of the linker, which gives the linker default values for the other aspects of the target system. In particular, it consists of

• the linker script

• the target

• several “hook” functions that are run at certain stages of the linking process to do special things that some targets require

The command to list valid linker emulation values is “m1750-coff-ld -V”.

Sample values: “coff_lmp”, “coff_m1750”.

Ways to specify:

1. command line option: “-m” (see Section 32.1.)

2. environment variable LDEMULATION

3. compiled-in DEFAULT_EMULATION from Makefile, which comes from EMUL in config/target.mt
