https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=138840#c5 The problem is that -mfix-cortex-a53-835769 errata detection is placed before the gold linker detection. It tries to detect if the default system linker supports it and later uses gold linker for the real build. I can't found any commit in trunk gold linker, so the easiest fix is to disable gold linker on Cortex A53 to be able to use the necessary workaround.
Yeah, that looks like the best solution to me as well.
Created attachment 251941 [details] Patch WIP patch, I'm going to check it on real hardware.
OK... so CMAKE_DEPENDENT_OPTION is a thing.... There's a typo in the patch: workaroung -> workaround.
Created attachment 251961 [details] Patch I fixed the mentioned typo, added the necessary include and negated CXX_ACCEPTS_MFIX_CORTEX_A53_835769 in CMAKE_DEPENDENT_OPTION which was wrong in my previous patch. (tested on real hw)

I asked the authors of the errata fix in BFD linker and they said that only the BFD linker is supported and they aren't planning to add this fix to the gold linker. So this change is really the correct fix.
