I’ve recently been hacking on compilers and have been interested in the issues surrounding them for quite a while now. I just recently came across Ian Lance Taylor’s old series of blog posts on linkers. I didn’t see an easy way to read them one after another so below I’ve collected links to all of the posts in the series.

This series of posts (which as of this writing, I haven’t actually read all of yet) joins John Levine’s old classic Linkers and Loaders (which I also haven’t read all the way though).
