The problem with symbol assignments in implicit linker scripts is that
they can refer synthetic symbols such as _end, _etext or _edata. The
value of these symbols is currently fixed only after all linker script
commands are processed, so these assignments will be using non-final and
hence invalid value.
Rather than fixing the symbol values after all command processing have
finished, we instead change the logic to generate symbol assignment
commands that set the value of these symbols while processing the
commands, this ensures that the value is going to be correct by the time
any reference to these symbol is processed and is equivalent to defining
these symbols explicitly in linker script as BFD ld does.

Currently, LLD checks whether there's enough space for headers by
checking if headers fit below the address of the first allocated
section. However, that's always thue if the binary doesn't start
at zero which means that LLD always emits a segment for headers,
even if no other sections belong to that segment.
This is a problem in cases when linker script is being used with a
non-zero start address when we don't want to make the headers visible
by not leaving enough space for them. This pattern is common in
embedded programming but doesn't work in LLD.
This patch changes the behavior of LLD in case when linker script
is being to match the behavior of BFD ld and gold, which is to only
place headers into a segment when they're covered by some output
section.

-F name
--filter=name
When creating an ELF shared object, set the internal DT_FILTER field to the specified name. This tells the dynamic linker that the symbol table of the shared object which is being created should be used as a filter on the symbol table of the shared object name.
If you later link a program against this filter object, then, when you run the program, the dynamic linker will see the DT_FILTER field. The dynamic linker will resolve symbols according to the symbol table of the filter object as usual, but it will actually link to the definitions found in the shared object name. Thus the filter object can be used to select a subset of the symbols provided by the object name.

Summary:
If the output file is a character file (e.g. /dev/null) unlinking it could

unlinking causes `lld %input -o /dev/null` to replace /dev/null with a
regular file, which will lead to unexpected behavior in other programs
that read from /dev/null, and worse than expected peformance for

This makes it possible to run the test-release.sh script as root.
Prior to this patch, the ELF/basic.s test would replace
/dev/null with a regular file, which would cause crashes in llvm
test-suite programs that piped /dev/null to stdin.

We could have add this function either Symbol or SymbolBody. I added it
to Symbol at first. But I noticed that if I've added it to SymbolBody,
we could've removed SymbolBody::setName(). So I'll do that in this patch.

Add support for the most common SPARC relocations.
Make DT_PLTGOT point to the PLT on SPARC.
Mark the PLT as executable on SPARC.
This adds a basic test that creates a SPARV9 executable
that invokes the exit system call on OpenBSD.
Patch by Mark Kettenis.

This is PR33596. Previously LLD would crash
because BYTE command synthesized output section,
but it was not assigned to Sec member of OutputSectionCommand.
Behaviour of -script and -r combination is not well defined,
but it seems after this change LLD naturally inherits behavior of
GNU linkers - creates output section requested in script and does not
crash anymore.

This fixes PR33598.
Size field for undefined symbols is not significant.
Setting it to fixed value, like zero, may be useful though.
For example when we have 2 DSO's, like in this PR, if lower level DSO may
change slightly (in part of some symbol's st_size) and higher-level DSO is
rebuilt, then tools that monitoring checksum of high level DSO file can notice
it and trigger cascade of some other unnecessary actions.
If we set st_size to zero, that can be avoided.

When -ffunction-sections and ARM C++ exceptions are used each .text.suffix
section will have at least one .ARM.exidx.suffix section and may have an
additional .ARM.extab.suffix section if the unwinding instructions are too
large to inline into the .ARM.exidx table entry. For a large program without
a linker script this can lead to a large number of section header table
entries that can increase the size of the ELF file.
This change introduces a default rule for .ARM.extab.* to be placed in
a single output section called .ARM.extab . This follows the behavior of
ld.gold and ld.bfd.

This patch fills holes in executable sections with 0xd4 (ARM) or
0xef (MIPS). These trap instructions were suggested by Theo de Raadt.

Most "reserved" symbols are in ElfSym and it looks like there's no
reason to not do the same thing for _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. This should
help https://reviews.llvm.org/D34618 too.

On many architectures gcc and clang will recognize _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ - .
and produce a relocation that can be processed without needing to know the
value of _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. This is not always the case; for example ARM
gcc produces R_ARM_BASE_PREL but clang produces the more general
R_ARM_REL32 to _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. To evaluate this relocation
correctly _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ must be defined to be the either the base of
the GOT or end of the GOT dependent on architecture..
If/when llvm-mc is changed to recognize _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ - . this
change will not be necessary for new objects. However there may still be
old objects and versions of clang.

Previously, when symbol A is renamed B, both A and B end up having
the same name. This is because name is a symbol's attribute, and
we memcpy symbols for symbol renaming.
This pathc saves the original symbol name and restore it after memcpy
to keep the original name.
This patch shouldn't change program's meaning, but names in symbol
tables make more sense than before.

The --exclude-libs option is not a popular option, but at least some
programs in Android depend on it, so it's worth to support it.

The option numbers in the macro were off by one which
leads to some confusion. There are actually 12 arguments
to this macro.
