-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.

PT_TLS is a type of program header, so we wouldn't expect to see
one in an object file. This error should probably be referring to
the fact that we didn't see a section with the flag SHF_TLS, which
would normally cause us to create a PT_TLS program header.

Functions declared in Strings.h should provide generic string operations

I have a patch to let DwarfContext defer to lld for getting section
contents and relocations.
That is a pretty big performance improvement.
This is just a refactoring to make that easier to do.
This change makes the *creation* of gdb index a dedicated step and
makes that templated. That is so that we can uses Elf_Rel in the code.

This fixes PR33712.
Imagine following script and code:
VER1 { global: foo; local: *; };
VER2 { global: foo; };
.global bar
bar:
.symver bar, foo@VER1
.global zed
zed:
.symver zed, foo@@VER2
We add foo@@VER2 as foo to symbol table, because have to resolve references to
foo for default symbols.
Later we are trying to assign symbol versions from script. For that we are searching for 'foo'
again. Here it is placed under VER1 and VER2 at the same time, we find it twice and trying to
set version again both times, hence LLD shows a warning.
Though sample code is correct: we have 2 different versions of foo.
Patch gives a symbol version extracted from name a priority over version set by script.

r307367 via D34345 split out the temporary address state used within
processCommands() and assignAddresses(). Due to the way that getSymbolValue
is used by the ScriptParser there is no way of giving the current
OutputSection to getSymbolValue() without somehow accessing the created
addressState. The suggestion was that by making a pointer that would go out
of scope we would find out by ASAN/MSAN or a crash if someone had misused
currentAddressState.

This is relative to PR33173,
Previously if something wrong happened on DWARF parsers side during parsing
object for building gdb index (like was in PR: unsupported relocation)
then LLD continued and finished the link. DWARF parsers sure showed error
message on their side, but that is all.
Patch changes behavior to fail the link in this case and show more
detailed message.

The assignAddresses() function accumulates state in the LinkerScript that
prevents it from being called multiple times. This change moves the state
into a separate structure AddressState that is created at the start of the
function and disposed of at the end.
CurAddressState is used rather than passing a reference to the state as a
parameter to the functions used by assignAddresses(). This is because the
getSymbolValue function needs to be executed in the context of AddressState
but it is stored in ScriptParser when AddressState is not available.
The AddressState is also used in a limited context by processCommands()

This fixes last testcase provided in PR28414.
In short issue is next: when we had X@@Version symbol in object A,
we did not resolve it to X early. Then when in another object B
we had reference to undefined X, symbol X from archive was fetched.
Since both archive and object A contains another symbol Z, duplicate
symbol definition was triggered as a result.
Correct behavior is to use X@@Version from object A instead and do not fetch
any symbols from archive.

This change permits there to be more than one thunk to be associated with
a symbol. For interworking thunks we only require one thunk, but range
extension thunks may require more than one.

On ARM the interworking thunks are only produced for branch instructions
that can't be changed into a blx instruction so only Thumb callers would
call Thumb thunks and only ARM callers would call ARM thunks. With range
extension thunks branch and link instructions may need a Thunk. These
instructions can be rewritten as a blx and can use either ARM or Thumb
thunks.
We introduce an isCompatibleWith() function so that a caller can check if
an existing Thunk is compatible before reusing it.

The allocateHeaders() function is called at the end of assignAddresses(), it
decides whether the ELF header and program header table can be allocated to
a PT_LOAD program header. As the function alters state, it prevents
assignAddresses() from being called multiple times.
This change splits out the call to allocateHeaders() from assignAddresses()
this will permit assignAddresses() to be called while processing range
extension thunks without trying to allocateHeaders().

This is finally getting to the point where output sections are
constructed.
createOrphanCommands and fabricateDefaultCommands are moved out so
they can be merged with existing code in followup commits.
llvm-svn: 307107
Summary:
If the output file is a character file (e.g. /dev/null) unlinking it could
potentially destabilize the user's system. For example,
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
programs that write to /dev/null.
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.
For example, if you run the test-relase.sh script as root,

This is PR28414.
Previously LLD was unable to link following:
(failed with undefined symbol bar)
Version script:
SOME_VERSION { global: *; };
.global _start
.global bar
.symver _start, bar@@SOME_VERSION
_start:
jmp bar
Manual has next description:
.symver name, name2@@nodename
In this case, the symbol name must exist and be defined within the file being assembled. It is similar to name2@nodename.
The difference is name2@@nodename will also be used to resolve references to name2 by the linker
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/Symver.html
Patch implements that. If we have name@@ver symbol and name is undefined, name@@ver is used to resolve references to name.
If name is defined then multiple definition error is emited, that is consistent with what bfd do.
