[sapiippo]

After changes in https://github.com/Freescale/meta-freescale/pull/933 for imx-atf, its build fails when ld-is-gold is in DISTRO_FEATURES

Built with master branch from poky and meta-freescale using imx8qm-mek:

@sapiippo are you going to look at the issue?

[denniedegroot]

I am running into the same issue with ld-is-gold enabled. Any progress on this?

Edit: Made a patch to workaround the issue

EXTRA_OEMAKE:remove = 'LD="${@remove_options_tail(d.getVar('LD'))}"'
EXTRA_OEMAKE:remove = 'CC="${@remove_options_tail(d.getVar('CC'))}"'

What is the status of this issue using current master, @sapiippo ?
