D64136 and D65584, while fixing STB_WEAK issues and improving our
compatibility with ld.bfd, can cause another STB_WEAK problem related to
LTO:
If %tundef.o has an undefined reference on f,
and %tweakundef.o has a weak undefined reference on f,
%tdef.o has a definition of f
```
ld.lld %tundef.o %tweakundef.o --start-lib %tdef.o --end-lib
```
1) `%tundef.o` doesn't set the `referenced` bit.
2) `%weakundef.o` changes the binding from STB_GLOBAL to STB_WEAK
3) `%tdef.o` is not fetched because the binding is weak.
Step (1) is incorrect. This patch sets the `referenced` bit of Undefined
created by bitcode files.

Summary:
The gold linker allowed you to output the ELF files after LTO was run. It did
it by using the 'obj-path' option. This replicates that behavior.

Adding all libcall symbols to the link can have undesired consequences.
For example, the libgcc implementation of __sync_val_compare_and_swap_8
on 32-bit ARM pulls in an .init_array entry that aborts the program if
the Linux kernel does not support 64-bit atomics, which would prevent
the program from running even if it does not use 64-bit atomics.
This change makes it so that we only add libcall symbols to the
link before LTO if we have to, i.e. if the symbol's definition is in
bitcode. Any other required libcall symbols will be added to the link
after LTO when we add the LTO object file to the link.

If any of our inputs are bitcode files, the LTO code generator may create
references to certain library functions that might not be explicit in the
bitcode file's symbol table. If any of those library functions are defined
in a bitcode file in an archive member, we need to arrange to use LTO to
compile those archive members by adding them to the link beforehand.

Before this lld was always creating common symbols itself. It worked,
but prevented them from being internalized when possible.
Now it preserves common symbols is the bitcode and they are internalized.
Fixes pr30184.
llvm-svn: 280242
We currently don't do a good job of diagnosing inputs that would require
dynamic relocations to be applied to read only segments.
I am about to improve lld in that area, but unfortunately we developed
tests that depend on the current behavior.
To make clear what is actually changing, this first patch just updates
tests to not depend on the current behavior. In most cases this just
means using a rw section instead of a ro one, but that unfortunately
changes many addresses.
llvm-svn: 268145
Since there is a copy in every translation unit that uses them, they can
be omitted from the symbol table if the address is not significant.
This still doesn't catch as many cases as the gold plugin. The
difference is that we check canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable in each file and
use lazy loading which limits what it can do. Gold checks it in the merged file.
I think the correct way of getting the same results as gold is just to
cache in the IR the result of canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable.

start-lib and end-lib are options to link object files in the same
semantics as archive files. If an object is in start-lib and end-lib,
the object is linked only when the file is needed to resolve
undefined symbols. That means, if an object is in start-lib and end-lib,
it behaves as if it were in an archive file.
In this patch, I introduced a new notion, LazyObjectFile. That is
analogous to Archive file type, but that works for a single object
file instead of for an archive file.

If a symbol is defined in an archive, when we replace its body
the isUsedInRegularObj wasn't set correctly. Internalize makes
its decision based on that bit so we ended up internalizing
symbols that we shouldn't (because they're referenced).
This should fix. Thanks to Peter and Rafael for discussion
and help diagnosing the issue!
Found during LTO of unittests.
llvm-svn: 265208
Some optimizations, e.g. SimplifyLibCalls, can replace functions with
others as part of the lowering, e.g. printf => puts.
The new symbols don't have the isUsedInRegularObj flag set so they
don't get included in the final symbol table (and dynamic symbol
table), and the dynamic linker gets confused. Include them as a fix.

Ensure we keep the symbol we need to before it reaches
the Writer (and hit an assertion), changing its linkage
from linkonce_odr to weak. For a more detailed description
of the problem, see PR19901 where a similar problem was
fixed for the gold plugin. Thanks to Rafael for providing
a testcase.

Summary:
This is useful for debugging issues with LTO.
The option follows the analogous option in ld64 and the gold plugin (per
Rafael's suggestion).
For starters, this only dumps the combined bitcode file.
In a future patch I will add dumping for the .o file.
The naming of the output follows ld64's convention which is slightly more
consistent IMO (consistent `.lto.<extension>` for all the files).
