Mold Linker Jumps From v2.4.1 To v2.30 To Resolve GNU libtool Compatibility

Phoronix | March 16, 2024, 1:06 p.m. | Original

Mold 2.30 is out this weekend as the newest version of this open-source high speed linker alternative to GNU Gold/LD and LLVM LLD.

Mold continues performing very well against the more established linkers while with Mold 2.30 it's mostly about fixes. For those keeping close track to the project, you may be a bit surprised with this new version considering previously they were on version 2.4... The big version jump to 2.30 is for enhancing GNU libtool

AMD guides how to run local AI chats with their hardware.

AMD does not have its own tool alike to NVIDIA Chat with RTX. NVIDIA came up with a simple tool that can be used to run locally smaller LLM (Large Language Models) powered by GeForce GPUs. While AMD has no such tool, the company suggests one should try using a 3rd party software that runs on CPUs and GPUs.
