Thanks for the pull request, and welcome! The Rust team is excited to review your changes, and you should hear from @varkor (or someone else) soon. If any changes to this PR are deemed necessary, please add them as extra commits. This ensures that the reviewer can see what has changed since they last reviewed the code. Due to the way GitHub handles out-of-date commits, this should also make it reasonably obvious what issues have or haven't been addressed. Large or tricky changes may require several passes of review and changes. Please see the contribution instructions for more information. |

This is something I had questions about. Also this logic needs to be moved from |

I agree that this should be moved from gc_sections (unrelated; not mutually exclusive to --gc-sections) and had only kept it there since it was a revert. However, --as-needed only functions as -z ignore on Solaris 11.4, not on prior versions (https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E26502_01/html/E29030/ld-1.html) |

I really don't see how this could affect a different target, this is a small change for Solaris. One common thread is that each run has also include #84797 It looks like this might be an issue with a deleted makefile not being included correctly? I think what I will try to do is run the test locally without his change to show that it passes, merge it in to show that it fails and then use remake to figure out why his change is failing but it may take me some time to figure out how to do all that. |

Well, bors will soon tell us if it's this PR or the other one. :) |

…r=petrochenkov Only pass --[no-]gc-sections if linker is GNU ld. Fixes a regression from rust-lang#84468 where linking now fails with solaris linkers. LinkerFlavor::Gcc does not always mean GNU ld specifically. And in the case of at least the solaris ld in illumos, that flag is unrecognized and will cause the linking step to fail. Even though removing the `is_like_solaris` branch from `gc_sections` in rust-lang#84468 made sense as `-z ignore/record` are more analogous to the `--[no-]-as-needed` flags, it inadvertently caused solaris linkers to be passed the `--gc-sections` flag. So let's just change it to be more explicit about when we pass those flags.

…enkov Preserve metadata w/ Solaris-like linkers. rust-lang#84468 moved the `-zignore` linker flag from the `gc_sections` method to `add_as_needed` which is more accurate but Solaris-style linkers will also end up removing an unreferenced ELF sections [1]. This had the unfortunate side effect of causing the `.rustc` section (which has the metada) to be removed which could cause issues when trying to link against the resulting crates or use proc macros. Since the `-zignore` is positional, we fix this by moving the metadata objects to before the flag. [1] Specifically a section is considered unreferenced if: * The section is allocatable * No other sections bind to (relocate) to this section * The section provides no global symbols https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19683-01/817-3677/6mj8mbtbs/index.html#chapter4-19
