Local symbol which requires GOT entry initialized by "page" address.
This address is high 16 bits of sum of the symbol value and the relocation
addend. In the relocation scanning phase final values of symbols are unknown
so to reduce number of allocated GOT entries do the following trick. Save
all output sections referenced by GOT relocations during the relocation
scanning phase. Then later in the `GotSection::finalize` method calculate
number of "pages" required to cover all saved output sections and allocate
appropriate number of GOT entries. We assume the worst case - each 64kb
page of the output section has at least one GOT relocation against it.

Now local symbols have SymbolBody so we can handle all kind of symbols
in the GotSection::addEntry method. The patch moves the code from
addMipsLocalEntry to addEntry. NFC.

We want to make SymbolBody the central place to query symbol information.
This patch also renames canBePreempted to isPreemptible because I feel that
the latter is slightly better (the former is three words and the latter
is two words.)

This patch implements --build-id. After the linker creates an output file
in the memory buffer, it computes the FNV1 hash of the resulting file
and set the hash to the .note section as a build-id.
GNU ld and gold have the same feature, but their default choice of the
hash function is different. Their default is SHA1.
We made a deliberate choice to not use a secure hash function for the
sake of performance. Computing a secure hash is slow -- for example,
MD5 throughput is usually 400 MB/s or so. SHA1 is slower than that.
As a result, if you pass --build-id to gold, then the linker becomes about
10% slower than that without the option. We observed a similar degradation
in an experimental implementation of build-id for LLD. On the other hand,
we observed only 1-2% performance degradation with the FNV hash.
Since build-id is not for digital certificate or anything, we think that
a very small probability of collision is acceptable.
We considered using other signals such as using input file timestamps as
inputs to a secure hash function. But such signals would have an issue
with build reproducibility (if you build a binary from the same source
tree using the same toolchain, the build id should become the same.)
GNU linkers accepts --build-id=<style> option where style is one of
"MD5", "SHA1", or an arbitrary hex string. That option is out of scope
of this patch.

It was a badly specified hack for when a tls relocation should be
propagated to the dynamic relocation table.
This replaces it with a not as bad hack of saying that a local dynamic
tls relocation is never preempted.
I will try to remove even that second hack in the next patch.

There was a known limitation for -r option:
relocations against local symbols were not supported.
For example rel[a].eh_frame sections contained relocations against sections
and that was not supported for -r before. Patch fixes that.

For shared libraries we allow any weak undefined symbol to eventually be
resolved, even if we never see a definition in another .so. This matches
the behavior when handling other undefined symbols in a shared library.
For executables, we require seeing a definition in a .so or resolve it
to zero. This is also similar to how non weak symbols are handled.

There is nothing aarch64 specific in here. If a symbol can be preempted,
we need to copy the full relocation to the dynamic linker.
If a symbol cannot be preempted, we can make the dynamic linker life
easier and produce a relative relocation.
This is directly equivalent to R_X86_64_64 to R_x86_64_RELATIVE
conversion.
llvm-svn: 261678
This patch fixes the R_AARCH64_ABS64 relocation when used in shared mode,
where it requires a dynamic R_AARCH64_RELATIVE relocation. To correct set
the addend on the dynamic relocation (since it will be used by the dynamic
linker), a new TargetInfo specific hook was created (getDynRelativeAddend)
to get the correct addend based on relocation type.
The patch fixes the issues when creating shared library code against
{init,fini}_array, where it issues R_AARCH64_ABS64 relocation against
local symbols.

This reduces the .rodata of scyladb from 4501932 to 4334639 bytes (1.038
times smaller).
I don't think it is critical to support tail merging, just exact
duplicates, but given the code organization it was actually a bit easier
to support both.

Previously, we added garbage-collected symbols to the symbol table
and filter them out when we were writing symbols to the file. In
this patch, garbage-collected symbols are filtered out from beginning.

IMHO this makes the code easier to read and should help with linker
scripts.
This is strongly based on D16575. The main differences are:
We record a range of sections, not every section in a program header.
scanHeaders takes case of deciding what goes in every program header,
including PT_GNU_RELRO
We create dummy sections for the start of the file
With this, program header creation has 3 isolated stages:
Map sections to program headers.
Assign addresses to *sections*
Looking at sections find the address and size of each program header.
Thanks to George Rimar for the initial version.

The previous names contained "Local" and "Current", but what we
are handling is always local and current, so they were redundant.
TlsIndex comes from "tls_index" struct that Ulrich Drepper is using
in this document to describe this data structure in GOT.
llvm-svn: 259852
Another case where we currently have almost duplicated code is the
creation of dynamic relocations. First to decide if we need one, then to
decide what to write.
This patch fixes it by passing more information from the relocation scan
to the section writing code. This is the same idea used for r258723.
I actually think it should be possible to simplify this further by
reordering things a bit in the writer. For example, we should be able to
represent almost every position in the file with an OutputSeciton and
offset. When writing it out we then just need to add the offset to the
OutputSection VA.
llvm-svn: 259829
Previously, the methods to get symbol addresses were somewhat scattered
in many places. You can use getEntryAddr returns the address of the symbol,
but if you want to get the GOT address for the symbol, you needed to call
Out<ELFT>::Got->getEntryAddr(Sym). This change adds new functions, getVA,
getGotVA, getGotPltVA, and getPltVA to SymbolBody, so that you can use
SymbolBody as the central place to ask about symbols.

This avoids the need to have reserve and addString in sync.
We avoid hashing the global symbols again. This means that we don't
merge a global symbol that has the same name as some other string, but
that doesn't seem very common. The string table size is the same in
clang an scylladb with or without hashing global symbols again.
llvm-svn: 259136
There are a few cases where we have almost duplicated code.
This patches fixes the simplest: the finalize and write of dynamic
section. Right now they have to have exactly the same structure to
decide if a DT_* entry is needed and then to actually write it.
We cannot just write it to a std::vector in the first pass since
addresses have not been computed yet.

Some MIPS relocation (for now R_MIPS_GOT16) requires creation of GOT
entries for symbol not included in the dynamic symbol table. They are
local symbols and non-local symbols with 'local' visibility. Local GOT
entries occupy continuous block between GOT header and regular GOT
entries.
The patch adds initial support for handling local GOT entries. The main
problem is allocating local GOT entries for local symbols. Such entries
should be initialized by high 16-bit of the symbol value. In ideal world
there should be no duplicated entries with the same values. But at the
moment of the `Writer::scanRelocs` call we do not know a value of the
symbol. In this patch we create new local GOT entry for each relocation
against local symbol, though we can exhaust GOT quickly. That needs to
be optimized later. When we calculate relocation we know a final symbol
value and request local GOT entry index. To do that we maintain map
between addresses and local GOT entry indexes. If we start to calculate
relocations in parallel we will have to serialize access to this map.

After this "Bug 25923 - lld/ELF2 linked application crashes if exceptions were used." is fixed for me. Self link of clang also works.
Initial commit message:
[ELF] - implemented --eh-frame-hdr command line option.
--eh-frame-hdr
Request creation of ".eh_frame_hdr" section and ELF "PT_GNU_EH_FRAME" segment header.
Both gold and the GNU linker support an option --eh-frame-hdr which tell them to construct a header for all the .eh_frame sections. This header is placed in a section named .eh_frame_hdr and also in a PT_GNU_EH_FRAME segment. At runtime the unwinder can find all the PT_GNU_EH_FRAME segments by calling dl_iterate_phdr.
This section contains a lookup table for quick binary search of FDEs.
