Struct Linker 

pub struct Linker { /* private fields */ }

Links finalized sections and buffers into one in-memory image.

Sections are concatenated in insertion order, each starting at a multiple of its alignment. Symbols exported with CodeBuffer::bind_symbol are resolved against the final layout: a relocation in any module that references a defined ExternalName is rebound to the definition, so a symbol defined in module A can be called from module B. Remaining undefined symbols stay external and are resolved at load time with CodeBufferFinalized::allocate_resolved.

This is deliberately not an ELF, COFF, or Mach-O linker: it emits no file headers, section table, or loader metadata. Section names are diagnostic only, and the linked result is one flat allocation; permissions are not preserved per section. The result is a regular CodeBufferFinalized, so the usual loading machinery (allocate, allocate_relocated, allocate_resolved) applies.

Implementations

impl Linker

pub fn new() -> Self

pub fn add_section(&mut self, section: FinalizedSection)

Adds a finalized section to the link.

pub fn add_buffer(&mut self, code: CodeBufferFinalized)

Adds a finalized buffer as a .text section aligned to the buffer’s own alignment.

pub fn link(self) -> Result<CodeBufferFinalized, AsmError>

Links all added sections into one image.

Fails with AsmError::NoCodeGenerated when no sections were added or AsmError::Link with the relevant section, symbol, or relocation.

Trait Implementations

impl Default for Linker

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.
