Subject: [PATCH] ARC: Explicitly specify OUTPUT_FORMAT in the linker script
Date:   Fri,  1 Jun 2018 13:49:04 +0300
Message-Id: <20180601104904.48481-1-abrodkin@synopsys.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

It might be a good idea to explicitly specify BFD format
depending on -EB/-EL option passed to the linker and not rely on
default behavior as we have now.

Description of the OUTPUT_FORMAT command is available here:
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/Format-Commands.html#Format-Commands
