This is a bit more verbose, but it has a few advantages.
The logic on what to do with special sections like .init_array is not
duplicated. Before we would need keep isKnownNonreorderableSection in
sync.
I think with this the call graph based sorting can be implemented by
"just" returning a new order from buildSectionOrder.

One of the FreeBSD requirements for enabling lld as the system linker is
that it has a man page. Other FreeBSD developers and I created one using
lld's --help output as a starting point. This is an expanded and

This man page would benefit from additional content, but it provides
basic user-facing coverage of lld's options and serves as a good

When you omit an argument, most options fall back to their defaults.
For example, --color-diagnostics is a synonym for --color-diagnostics=auto.
We don't have a way to specify the default choice for --build-id, so we
can't describe --build-id (without an argument) in that way.
This patch adds "fast" for the default build-id choice.

Summary:
This patch adds some initial support for Windows control flow guard. At
the end of the day, the linker needs to synthesize a table of RVAs very
similar to the structured exception handler table (/safeseh).
Both /safeseh and /guard:cf take sections of symbol table indices
(.sxdata and .gfids$y) and turn them into RVA tables referenced by the
load config struct in the CRT through special symbols.

When using Elf_Rela every tool should use the addend in the
relocation.
We have --apply-dynamic-relocs to work around bugs in tools that don't
do that.
The default value of --apply-dynamic-relocs should be false to make
sure these bugs are more easily found in the future.
llvm-svn: 324264
When resolving dynamic RELA relocations the addend is taken from the
relocation and not the place being relocated. Accordingly lld does not
write the addend field to the place like it would for a REL relocation.
Unfortunately there is some system software, in particlar dynamic loaders
such as Bionic's linker64 that use the value of the place prior to
relocation to find the offset that they have been loaded at. Both gold
and bfd control this behavior with the --[no-]apply-dynamic-relocs option.
This change implements the option and defaults it to true for compatibility
with gold and bfd.

Currently ICF information is output through stderr if the "--verbose"
flag is used. This differs to Gold for example, which uses an explicit
flag to output this to stdout. This commit adds the
"--print-icf-sections" and "--no-print-icf-sections" flags and changes
the output message format for clarity and consistency with
"--print-gc-sections". These messages are still output to stderr if
using the verbose flag. However to avoid intermingled message output to
console, this will not occur when the "--print-icf-sections" flag is
used.
Existing tests have been modified to expect the new message format from
stderr.

performing incremental linking. This change makes lld-link's import
library overwriting similarly dependent on whether or not incremental
linking is being performed. This is controlled by the /incremental or

Summary:
While trying to make a linker script behave the same way with lld as it did
with bfd, I discovered that lld currently doesn't diagnose overlapping
output sections. I was getting very strange runtime failures which I
tracked down to overlapping sections in the resulting binary. When linking
with ld.bfd overlapping output sections are an error unless
--noinhibit-exec is passed and I believe lld should behave the same way
here to avoid surprising crashes at runtime.
The patch also uncovered an errors in the tests: arm-thumb-interwork-thunk
was creating a binary where .got.plt was placed at an address overlapping
with .got.

If two sections are in the same PT_LOAD, their relatives offsets,
virtual address and physical addresses are all the same.
I initially wanted to have a single global LMAOffset, on the
assumption that every ELF file was in practiced loaded contiguously in
both physical and virtual memory.
Unfortunately that is not the case. The linux kernel has:
LOAD 0x200000 0xffffffff81000000 0x0000000001000000 0xced000 0xced000 R E 0x200000
LOAD 0x1000000 0xffffffff81e00000 0x0000000001e00000 0x15f000 0x15f000 RW 0x200000
LOAD 0x1200000 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000001f5f000 0x01b198 0x01b198 RW 0x200000
LOAD 0x137b000 0xffffffff81f7b000 0x0000000001f7b000 0x116000 0x1ec000 RWE 0x200000
The delta for all but the third PT_LOAD is the same:
0xffffffff80000000. I think the 3rd one is a hack for implementing per
cpu data, but we can't break that.
llvm-svn: 323456
This fixes the crash reported at PR36083.
The issue is that we were trying to put all the sections in the same

This also adds accounting for used space in LMARegion, without it all
3 PT_LOADs would have the same physical address.

Previously, we were ensuring that the "output index" for
InputFunctions was unique across all symbols that referenced
a function body, but allowing the same function body to have
multiple table indexes.
Now, we use the same mechanism for table indexes as we already
do for output indexes, ensuring that each InputFunction is only
placed in the table once.
This makes the LLD output table denser and smaller, but should
not change the behaviour.
Note that we still need the `Symbol::TableIndex` member, to
store the table index for function Symbols that don't have an
InputFunction, i.e. for address-taken imports.
