to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

Summary:
For the 2-bit bloom filter, we currently pick the bits Hash%64 and Hash>>6%64 (Shift2=6), but bits [6:...] are also used to select a word, causing a loss of precision.
In this patch, we choose Shift2=26, with is suggested by Ambrose Feinstein.
Note, Shift2 is computed as maskbitslog2 in bfd/elflink.c and gold/dynobj.cc
It is varying with the number of dynamic symbols but we don't
necessarily copy its rule.

On PowerPC64, when a function call offset is too large to encode in a call
instruction the address is stored in a table in the data segment. A thunk is
used to load the branch target address from the table relative to the
TOC-pointer and indirectly branch to the callee. When linking position-dependent
code the addresses are stored directly in the table, for position-independent
code the table is allocated and filled in at load time by the dynamic linker.
For position-independent code the branch targets could have gone in the .got.plt
but using the .branch_lt section for both position dependent and position
independent binaries keeps it consitent and helps keep this PPC64 specific logic
seperated from the target-independent code handling the .got.plt.

Previously, we uncompress all compressed sections before doing anything.
That works, and that is conceptually simple, but that could results in
a waste of CPU time and memory if uncompressed sections are then
discarded or just copied to the output buffer.
In particular, if .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are compressed and if no
-gdb-index option is given, we wasted CPU and memory because we
uncompress them into newly allocated bufers and then memcpy the buffers
to the output buffer. That temporary buffer was redundant.
This patch changes how to uncompress sections. Now, compressed sections
are uncompressed lazily. To do that, `Data` member of `InputSectionBase`
is now hidden from outside, and `data()` accessor automatically expands
an compressed buffer if necessary.
If no one calls `data()`, then `writeTo()` directly uncompresses
compressed data into the output buffer. That eliminates the redundant
memory allocation and redundant memcpy.
This patch significantly reduces memory consumption (20 GiB max RSS to
15 Gib) for an executable whose .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are in total
5 GiB in an uncompressed form.

With this patch, lld creates a .note.GNU_stack and adds that to an
output file if it is creating a re-linkable object file (i.e. if -r
is given). If we don't do this, and if you use GNU linkers as a final
linker, they create an executable whose stack area is executable,
which is considered pretty bad these days.

This patch merges createGdbIndex function and GdbIndexSection's
constructor into a single static member function of the class.
This patch also change how we keep CU vectors. Previously, CuVector
and GdbSymbols were parallel arrays, but there's no reason to choose that
design. Now, CuVector is a member of GdbSymbol class.
A lot of members are removed from GdbIndexSection. Previously, it has
members that need to be kept in sync over several phases. I belive the new
design is less error-prone, and the new code is much easier to read
than before.

.gdb_index sections can be very large. When you are compiling
multi-gibibyte executables, they can be larger than 1 GiB. The previous
implementation of .gdb_index seems to consume too much memory.

In one experiment, memory consumption of GdbIndexSection class is

This change adds experimental support for SHT_RELR sections, proposed
here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/generic-abi/bX460iggiKg
Pass '--pack-dyn-relocs=relr' to enable generation of SHT_RELR section
and DT_RELR, DT_RELRSZ, and DT_RELRENT dynamic tags.
Definitions for the new ELF section type and dynamic array tags, as well
as the encoding used in the new section are all under discussion and are
subject to change. Use with caution!
Pass '--use-android-relr-tags' with '--pack-dyn-relocs=relr' to use
SHT_ANDROID_RELR section type instead of SHT_RELR, as well as
DT_ANDROID_RELR* dynamic tags instead of DT_RELR*. The generated
section contents are identical.
'--pack-dyn-relocs=android+relr --use-android-relr-tags' enables both
'--pack-dyn-relocs=android' and '--pack-dyn-relocs=relr': lld will
encode the relative relocations in a SHT_ANDROID_RELR section, and pack
the rest of the dynamic relocations in a SHT_ANDROID_REL(A) section.

Almost all entries inside MIPS GOT are referenced by signed 16-bit
index. Zero entry lies approximately in the middle of the GOT. So the
total number of GOT entries cannot exceed ~16384 for 32-bit architecture
and ~8192 for 64-bit architecture. This limitation makes impossible to
link rather large application like for example LLVM+Clang. There are two
workaround for this problem. The first one is using the -mxgot
compiler's flag. It enables using a 32-bit index to access GOT entries.
But each access requires two assembly instructions two load GOT entry
index to a register. Another workaround is multi-GOT. This patch
implements it.
Here is a brief description of multi-GOT for detailed one see the
following link https://dmz-portal.mips.com/wiki/MIPS_Multi_GOT.
If the sum of local, global and tls entries is less than 64K only single
got is enough. Otherwise, multi-got is created. Series of primary and
multiple secondary GOTs have the following layout:
```
- Primary GOT
Header
Local entries
Global entries
Relocation only entries
TLS entries
- Secondary GOT
Local entries
Global entries
TLS entries
...
```
All GOT entries required by relocations from a single input file
entirely belong to either primary or one of secondary GOTs. To reference
GOT entries each GOT has its own _gp value points to the "middle" of the
GOT. In the code this value loaded to the register which is used for GOT
access.
MIPS 32 function's prologue:
```
lui v0,0x0
0: R_MIPS_HI16 _gp_disp
addiu v0,v0,0
4: R_MIPS_LO16 _gp_disp
```
MIPS 64 function's prologue:
```
lui at,0x0
14: R_MIPS_GPREL16 main
```
Dynamic linker does not know anything about secondary GOTs and cannot
use a regular MIPS mechanism for GOT entries initialization. So we have
to use an approach accepted by other architectures and create dynamic
relocations R_MIPS_REL32 to initialize global entries (and local in case
of PIC code) in secondary GOTs. But ironically MIPS dynamic linker
requires GOT entries and correspondingly ordered dynamic symbol table
entries to deal with dynamic relocations. To handle this problem
relocation-only section in the primary GOT contains entries for all
symbols referenced in global parts of secondary GOTs. Although the sum
of local and normal global entries of the primary got should be less
than 64K, the size of the primary got (including relocation-only entries
can be greater than 64K, because parts of the primary got that overflow
the 64K limit are used only by the dynamic linker at dynamic link-time
and not by 16-bit gp-relative addressing at run-time.
The patch affects common LLD code in the following places:
- Added new hidden -mips-got-size flag. This flag required to set low
maximum size of a single GOT to be able to test the implementation using
small test cases.
- Added InputFile argument to the getRelocTargetVA function. The same
symbol referenced by GOT relocation from different input file might be
allocated in different GOT. So result of relocation depends on the file.
- Added new ctor to the DynamicReloc class. This constructor records
settings of dynamic relocation which used to adjust address of 64kb page
lies inside a specific output section.
With the patch LLD is able to link all LLVM+Clang+LLD applications and
libraries for MIPS 32/64 targets.

These maps are small, but we are creating an destroying one for each
input .eh_frame.
This patch reduces the total memory allocation from 765.54MB to
749.19MB. The peak is still the same: 563.7MB.
llvm-svn: 331075
Now that getSectionPiece is fast (uses a hash) it is probably OK to
split merge sections early.
The reason I want to do this is to split eh_frame sections in the same
place.
This does mean that we have to decompress early. Given that the only
compressed sections are debug info, I don't think we are missing much.
It is a small improvement: 0.5% on the geometric mean.
llvm-svn: 331058
This is slightly simpler to read IMHO. Now if a symbol has a position
in the file, it is Defined.
The main motivation is that with this a SharedSymbol doesn't need a
section, which reduces the size of SymbolUnion.
With this the peak allocation when linking chromium goes from 568.1 to
564.2 MB.

This is the same as 327248 except Arm defining _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ to
be the base of the .got section as some existing code is relying upon it.
For most Targets the _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ symbol is expected to be at
the start of the .got.plt section so that _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_[0] =
reserved value that is by convention the address of the dynamic section.
Previously we had defined _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ as either the start or end
of the .got section with the intention that the .got.plt section would
follow the .got. However this does not always hold with the current
default section ordering so _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_[0] may not be consistent
with the reserved first entry of the .got.plt.
