There was a problem hiding this comment.
Can we move all the linking code out to a new function that is also cfg(feature = "link") so that it is easier to read this giant if with no else?

I also added details in the README about CUSTOM_LIBFUZZER_PATH as it seemed relevant. |
|
Can a release be cut for this? We would like to publish a downstream crate that depends on this but cannot depend on the git revision. |

Published 0.4.7 |

We are implementing AFLplusplus/LibAFL#981, but don't want to make too much impact on the downstream users of libfuzzer-sys. As a compromise, this PR adds a default feature,
link, which, when enabled, links to the libfuzzer runtime or the CUSTOM_LIBFUZZER_RUNTIME. When not enabled, it does not link to the fuzzer runtime.This allows us to link to a custom runtime in our own dependency while reusing the infrastructure already provided by libfuzzer-sys (namely, fuzz_target and custom_mutator). See an example of this use case here:
