Also move the `createFiles` to be `checkConfig` and report `no input

--no-threads is a name copied from gold.
gold has --no-thread, --thread-count and several other --thread-count-*.
There are needs to customize the number of threads (running several lld
processes concurrently or customizing the number of LTO threads).
Having a single --threads=N is a straightforward replacement of gold's
--no-threads + --thread-count.
--no-threads is used rarely. So just delete --no-threads instead of
keeping it for compatibility for a while.
If --threads= is specified (ELF,wasm; COFF /threads: is similar),
--thinlto-jobs= defaults to --threads=,
otherwise all available hardware threads are used.
There is currently no way to override a --threads={1,2,...}. It is still
a debate whether we should use --threads=all.

Before this patch, it wasn't possible to extend the ThinLTO threads to all SMT/CMT threads in the system. Only one thread per core was allowed, instructed by usage of llvm::heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() in the ThinLTO code. Any number passed to the LLD flag /opt:lldltojobs=..., or any other ThinLTO-specific flag, was previously interpreted in the context of llvm::heavyweight_hardware_concurrency(), which means SMT disabled.
One can now say in LLD:
/opt:lldltojobs=0 -- Use one std::thread / hardware core in the system (no SMT). Default value if flag not specified.
/opt:lldltojobs=N -- Limit usage to N threads, regardless of usage of heavyweight_hardware_concurrency().
/opt:lldltojobs=all -- Use all hardware threads in the system. Equivalent to /opt:lldltojobs=$(nproc) on Linux and /opt:lldltojobs=%NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS% on Windows. When an affinity mask is set for the process, threads will be created only for the cores selected by the mask.
When N > number-of-hardware-threads-in-the-system, the threads in the thread pool will be dispatched equally on all CPU sockets (tested only on Windows).
When N <= number-of-hardware-threads-on-a-CPU-socket, the threads will remain on the CPU socket where the process started (only on Windows).

This is how it should've been and brings it more in line with
std::string_view. There should be no functional change here.
This is mostly mechanical from a custom clang-tidy check, with a lot of
manual fixups. It uncovers a lot of minor inefficiencies.
This doesn't actually modify StringRef yet, I'll do that in a follow-up.
One instance looks like a false positive:
lld/ELF/Relocations.cpp:1622:14: note: use reference type 'const std::pair<ThunkSection *, uint32_t> &' (aka 'cons

It is not changed in this commit.
Remove the lld::enableColors function, as it just obscures which
stream it's affecting, and replace with explicit calls to the stream's
enable_colors.
Also, assign the stderrOS and stdoutOS globals first in link function,
just to ensure nothing might use them.
(Either change individually fixes the issue of using the old

This change is for those who use lld as a library. Context:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D70287
This patch adds a new parmeter to lld::*::link() so that we can pass
an raw_ostream object representing stdout. Previously, lld::*::link()
took only an stderr object.
Justification for making stdoutOS and stderrOS mandatory: I wanted to
make link() functions to take stdout and stderr in that order.
However, if we change the function signature from
bool link(ArrayRef<const char *> args, bool canExitEarly,
raw_ostream &stderrOS = llvm::errs());
to
bool link(ArrayRef<const char *> args, bool canExitEarly,
raw_ostream &stdoutOS = llvm::outs(),
raw_ostream &stderrOS = llvm::errs());
, then the meaning of existing code that passes stderrOS silently
changes (stderrOS would be interpreted as stdoutOS). So, I chose to
make existing code not to compile, so that developers can fix their
code.

of being called from `__wasm_call_ctors` or called directly by the

- Adds a new synthetic data symbol `__wasm_init_memory_flag` that is

for initializing memory.
- All threads now unconditionally perform data.drop on all passive
segments.
- Removes --passive-segments and --active-segments flags and controls
segment type based on --shared-memory instead. The deleted flags
were only present to ameliorate the upgrade path in Emscripten.

Wasm tables that we use to store function pointers. In order to add functions
to that table at runtime, we need to either preallocate space, or grow the table.
In order to specify a table with no maximum size, we need some flag to handle

1. raw_ostream supports ANSI colors so that you can write messages to
the termina with colors. Previously, in order to change and reset
color, you had to call `changeColor` and `resetColor` functions,
respectively.
So, if you print out "error: " in red, for example, you had to do
something like this:
OS.changeColor(raw_ostream::RED);
OS << "error: ";
OS.resetColor();
With this patch, you can write the same code as follows:
OS << raw_ostream::RED << "error: " << raw_ostream::RESET;
2. Add a boolean flag to raw_ostream so that you can disable colored
output. If you disable colors, changeColor, operator<<(Color),
resetColor and other color-related functions have no effect.
Most LLVM tools automatically prints out messages using colors, and
you can disable it by passing a flag such as `--disable-colors`.
This new flag makes it easy to write code that works that way.

Summary:
Thread local variables are placed inside a `.tdata` segment. Their symbols are
offsets from the start of the segment. The address of a thread local variable
is computed as `__tls_base` + the offset from the start of the segment.
`.tdata` segment is a passive segment and `memory.init` is used once per thread
to initialize the thread local storage.
`__tls_base` is a wasm global. Since each thread has its own wasm instance,
it is effectively thread local. Currently, `__tls_base` must be initialized
at thread startup, and so cannot be used with dynamic libraries.
`__tls_base` is to be initialized with a new linker-synthesized function,
`__wasm_init_tls`, which takes as an argument a block of memory to use as the
storage for thread locals. It then initializes the block of memory and sets
`__tls_base`. As `__wasm_init_tls` will handle the memory initialization,
the memory does not have to be zeroed.
To help allocating memory for thread-local storage, a new compiler intrinsic
is introduced: `__builtin_wasm_tls_size()`. This instrinsic function returns
the size of the thread-local storage for the current function.
The expected usage is to run something like the following upon thread startup:
__wasm_init_tls(malloc(__builtin_wasm_tls_size()));

Since OPT_UNKNOWN args never have any values and consist only of

practice, but it's more consistent with Arg's guidance to use

This fixes an 8-year-old regression. r105763 made it so that aliases
always refer to the unaliased option – but it missed the "joined" branch
of JoinedOrSeparate flags. (r162231 then made the Args classes
non-virtual, and r169344 moved them from clang to llvm.)
Back then, there was no JoinedOrSeparate flag that was an alias, so it
wasn't observable. Now /U in CLCompatOptions is a JoinedOrSeparate alias
in clang, and warn_slash_u_filename incorrectly used the aliased arg id
(using the unaliased one isn't really a regression since that warning
checks if the undefined macro contains slash or backslash and only then
emits the warning – and no valid use will pass "-Ufoo/bar" or similar).
Also, lld has many JoinedOrSeparate aliases, and due to this bug it had
to explicitly call `getUnaliasedOption()` in a bunch of places, even
though that shouldn't be necessary by design. After this fix in Option,
these calls really don't have an effect any more, so remove them.
No intended behavior change.
(I accidentally fixed this bug while working on PR29106 but then
wondered why the warn_slash_u_filename broke. When I figured it out, I
thought it would make sense to land this in a separate commit.)

When function signatures don't match and the undefined function is not
called directly (i.e. only has its address taken) we don't issue a
warning or create a runtime thunk for the undefined function.
Instead in this case we simply use the defined version of the function.
This is possible since checking signatures of dynamic calls happens
at runtime so any invalid usage will still result in a runtime error.
This is needed to allow C++ programs to link without generating
warnings. Its not uncommon in C++ for vtables to be populated by
function address whee the signature of the function is not known in the
compilation unit. In this case clang declares the method as void(void)
and relies on the vtable caller casting the data back to the correct
signature.

Merging data segments produces smaller code sizes because each segment
has some boilerplate. Therefore, merging data segments is generally the
right approach, especially with wasm where binaries are typically
delivered over the network.
However, when analyzing wasm binaries, it can be helpful to get a
conservative picture of which functions are using which data
segments[0]. Perhaps there is a large data segment that you didn't
expect to be included in the wasm, introduced by some library you're
using, and you'd like to know which library it was. In this scenario,
merging data segments only makes the analysis worse.
Alternatively, perhaps you will remove some dead functions by-hand[1]
that can't be statically proven dead by the compiler or lld, and
removing these functions might make some data garbage collect-able, and
you'd like to run `--gc-sections` again so that this now-unused data can
be collected. If the segments were originally merged, then a single use
of the merged data segment will entrench all of the data.

This is most useful when using lld-link on a non-Win host (but it might become
useful on Windows too if lld also grows a fansi-escape-codes flag).
Also make the help for --color-diagnostic mention the valid values in ELF and
wasm, and print the flag name with two dashes in diags, since the one-dash form
is seen as a list of many one-letter flags in some contexts.

Enables cleaning up confusion between which name variables are mangled
and which are unmangled, and --print-gc-sections then excersises and
tests that.

Since InputGlobal makes a copy of a given object, we can use a temporary
object allocated on the stack here.
