/usr/bin/ld: cannot use executable file 'payload.o' as input to a link

Hi,
when the makefile is executed to

 kvm-hello-world: kvm-hello-world.o payload.o
	$(CC) $^ -o $@

a error comes /usr/bin/ld: cannot use executable file 'payload.o' as input to a link

ld version is GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.36.1

Are there any good ideas to fix this?
thanks.

hi, this problem has been fixed.

The main issue of the bad input is that payload.o has been linked into an executable file, which rejected by gcc-ld(version 2.36.1)

Add -r(output to be a relocatable file) in the payload.o generation solved the problem.

I will push a request later.

like this :

payload.o: payload.ld guest16.o guest32.img.o guest64.img.o
	$(LD) -r -T $< -o  $@
