Adding a version_script help needed

[Minseong Kim]

I am trying use lld for Android linker which does not support exclude-libs linker option.

So I want to use version script to mimic the behavior of the missing option.

However, when I added a version script to a module (specifically bionic/linker/Android.bp) it complains about unrecognized property "arch.arm64.version_script".

-------------------

arch: {

        arm: {

            srcs: ["arch/arm/begin.S"],

            cflags: ["-D__work_around_b_24465209__"],

        },

        arm64: {

            srcs: ["arch/arm64/begin.S"],

            version_script: "linker.arm64.map",

        },

        x86: {

            srcs: ["arch/x86/begin.c"],

            cflags: ["-D__work_around_b_24465209__"],

        },

        x86_64: {

            srcs: ["arch/x86_64/begin.S"],

        },

-------------------

The error is as the following:

-------------------

[1/1] out/soong/.bootstrap/bin/soong_build out/soong/build.ninja

FAILED: out/soong/build.ninja 

out/soong/.bootstrap/bin/soong_build -t -b out/soong -d out/soong/build.ninja.d -o out/soong/build.ninja Android.bp

error: bionic/linker/Android.bp:51:27: unrecognized property "arch.arm64.version_script"

ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

10:28:29 soong bootstrap failed with: exit status 1

make: *** [run_soong_ui] Error 1

#### make failed to build some targets (3 seconds) ####

-------------------

There seems no docs explaining howtos of version script dynamics for Android. Can anyone shed light on the above problem ?

Much appreciated.

cheers,

version_script is implemented for cc_library, but linker is a
cc_binary. If you want a local hack, just add the necessary
"-Wl,--version-script,..." flag to ldflags, and remove the check for
version script arguments at
