This creates a new library called BinaryFormat that has all of
the headers from llvm/Support containing structure and layout
definitions for various types of binary formats like dwarf, coff,
elf, etc as well as the code for identifying a file from its
magic.

We were looking up sections by name during expression evaluation. By
keeping track of forward declarations we can do the lookup during
script parsing.
Doing the lookup earlier will be more efficient when assignAddresses
is run twice and removes two uses of OutputSections.

Before InputSectionBase had an OutputSection pointer, but that was not
always valid. For example, if it was a merge section one actually had
to look at MergeSec->OutSec.
This was brittle and caused bugs like the one fixed by r304260.
We now have a single Parent pointer that points to an OutputSection
for InputSection, but to a SyntheticSection for merge sections and
.eh_frame. This makes it impossible to accidentally access an invalid
OutSec.

I found that during visual inspection of code while wrote different patch.
Script in testcase probably have nothing common with real life, but
we segfault currently using it.
If output section is known NOBITS, there is no need to create
writers threads for doing nothing or proccess any filler logic that
is useless here. We can just early return, that is what this patch do.

InputSections may contain MergeInputSection members which trigger

While the following expression is handled fine:
PROVIDE_HIDDEN(newsym = oldsym + address);
The following expression triggers an error because the expression
is evaluated as absolute:
PROVIDE_HIDDEN(newsym = ALIGN(oldsym, CONSTANT(MAXPAGESIZE)) + address);
To avoid this error, we use late evaluation for ALIGN by making the
alignment an attribute of the expression itself.

This reduces how many times we have to map from OutputSection to
OutputSectionCommand. It is a required step to moving
clearOutputSections earlier.
In order to always use writeTo in OutputSectionCommand we have to call
fabricateDefaultCommands for -r links and move section compression
after it.
llvm-svn: 303784
By the time we get to linker scripts, all special InputSectionBase
should have been combined into synthetic sections, which are a type of
InputSection. The net result is that we can use InputSection in a few
places that were using InputSectionBase.
llvm-svn: 303702
This converts the last (chronologically) user of OutputSections to use
the linker script commands instead.
The idea is to convert all uses after fabricateDefaultCommands, so
that we have a single representation.

This is PR32664.
Issue was revealed by linux kernel script which was:
SECTIONS {
. = (0xffffffff80000000 + ALIGN(0x1000000, 0x200000));
phys_startup_64 = ABSOLUTE(startup_64 - 0xffffffff80000000);
.text : AT(ADDR(.text) - 0xffffffff80000000) {
.....
*(.head.text)
Where startup_64 is in .head.text.
At the place of assignment to phys_startup_64 we can not calculate absolute value for startup_64
because .text section has no VA assigned. Two patches were prepared earlier to address this: D32173 and D32174.
And in comments for D32173 was suggested not try to support this case, but error out.

We can set SectionIndex tentatively as we process the linker script
instead of looking it repeatedly.
In general we should try to have as few name lookups as possible.
llvm-svn: 302299
In the non linker script case we would try very early to find out if
we could allocate the headers. Failing to do that would add extra
alignment to the first ro section, since we would set PageAlign
thinking it was the first section in the PT_LOAD.
In the linker script case the header allocation must be done in the
end, causing some duplication.
We now tentatively add the headers to the first PT_LOAD and if it
turns out they don't fit, remove them. With this we only need to
allocate the headers in one place in the code.
llvm-svn: 302186
We were correctly computing the size contribution of a .tbss input
section (it is none), but we were incorrectly considering the
alignment of the output section: it was advancing Dot instead of
ThreadBssOffset.
As far as I can tell this was always wrong in our linkerscript
implementation, but that became more visible now that the code is
shared with the non linker script case.
llvm-svn: 302107
The --section-start <name>=<address> needs to be translated into equivalent
linker script commands. There are a couple of problems with the existing
implementation:
- The --section-start with the lowest address is assumed to be at the start
of the map. This assumption is incorrect, we have to iterate through the
SectionStartMap to find the lowest address.
- The addresses in --section-start were being over-aligned when the
sections were marked as PageAlign. This is inconsistent with the use of
SectionStartMap in fixHeaders(), and can cause problems when the PageAlign
causes an "unable to move location counter backward" error when the
--section-start with PageAlign is aligned to an address higher than the next
--section-start. The ld.bfd and ld.gold seem to be more consistent with this
approach but this is not a well specified area.
This change fixes the problems above and also corrects a typo in which
fabricateDefaultCommands() is called with the wrong parameter, it should be
called with AllocateHeader not Config->MaxPageSize.

When using linkerscripts we were trying to sort SHF_LINK_ORDER
sections too early. Instead of always doing two runs of
assignAddresses, record the section order in processCommands.
llvm-svn: 301830
This version uses a set to speed up the synchronize method.
Original message:
Remove LinkerScript::flush.
This patch replaces flush with a last ditch attempt at synchronizing
the section list with the linker script "AST".
The synchronization is a bit of a hack and should in time be avoided
by creating the AST earlier so that modifications can be made directly
to it instead of modifying the section list and synchronizing it back.
This is the main step for fixing
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32816. With this in place I
think the only missing thing would be to have processCommands assign
section indexes as dummy offsets so that the sort in
OutputSection::finalize works.
With this LinkerScript::assignAddresses becomes much simpler, which
should help with the thunk work.

This reverts commit r301678 since that change significantly slowed

We were already pretty close, the one exception was when a name was
reused in another SECTIONS directive:
SECTIONS {
.text : { *(.text) }
.data : { *(.data) }
}
SECTIONS {
.data : { *(other) }
}
In this case we would create a single .data and magically output
"other" while looking at the first OutputSectionCommand.
We now create two .data sections. This matches what gold does. If we
really want to create a single one, we should change the parser so that
the above is parsed as if the user had written
SECTIONS {
.text : { *(.text) }
.data : { *(.data) *(other)}
}
That is, there should be only one OutputSectionCommand for .data and
it would have two InputSectionDescriptions.
By itself this patch makes the code a bit more complicated, but is an
important step in allowing assignAddresses to operate just on the
linker script.
llvm-svn: 301484
This change fabricates linker script commands for the case where there is
no linker script SECTIONS to control address assignment. This permits us
to have a single Script->assignAddresses() function.
There is a small change in user-visible-behavior with respect to the
handling of .tbss SHT_NOBITS, SHF_TLS as the Script->assignAddresses()
requires setDot() to be called with monotically increasing addresses.
The tls-offset.s test has been updated so that the script and non-script
results match.
This change should make the non-script behavior of lld closer to an
equivalent linker script.

Imagine next script:
SECTIONS { BYTE(0x11); }
Section content written to disk will be 0x11. Previous LLD behavior was to make this
section SHT_NOBITS. What is not correct because section has content.
ld.bfd makes such sections SHT_PROGBITS, this patch do the same.
