30 // so remove this when operating systems are improved.
32 // On Linux (and probably on other Unix-like systems), unlink(2) is a
33 // noticeably slow system call. As of 2016, unlink takes 250
34 // milliseconds to remove a 1 GB file on ext4 filesystem on my machine.
36 // To create a new result file, we first remove existing file. So, if
37 // you repeatedly link a 1 GB program in a regular compile-link-debug
38 // cycle, every cycle wastes 250 milliseconds only to remove a file.
39 // Since LLD can link a 1 GB binary in about 5 seconds, that waste
40 // actually counts.
42 // This function spawns a background thread to remove the file.
43 // The calling thread returns almost immediately.

50 // On Windows co-operative programs can be expected to open LLD's
51 // output in FILE_SHARE_DELETE mode. This allows us to delete the
52 // file (by moving it to a temporary filename and then deleting
53 // it) so that we can link another output file that overwrites
54 // the existing file, even if the current file is in use.
56 // This is done on a best effort basis - we do not error if the
57 // operation fails. The consequence is merely that the user
58 // experiences an inconvenient work-flow.
60 // The code here allows LLD to work on all versions of Windows.
61 // However, at Windows 10 1903 it seems that the behavior of
62 // Windows has changed, so that we could simply delete the output
63 // file. This code should be simplified once support for older
64 // versions of Windows is dropped.
66 // Warning: It seems that the WINVER and _WIN32_WINNT preprocessor
67 // defines affect the behavior of the Windows versions of the calls
68 // we are using here. If this code stops working this is worth
69 // bearing in mind.
