This patch makes it possible to identify object files created by CL.exe
with /GL option. Such file contains Microsoft proprietary intermediate
code instead of target machine code to do LTO.
I need this to print out user-friendly error message from LLD.

When Error was threaded through these APIs back in r265606 the
"return" was missed here, which triggers a warning if/when I add
LLVM_NODISCARD to the Error type.

Produce another specific error message for a malformed Mach-O file when a symbol’s
section index is more than the number of sections. The existing test case in test/Object/macho-invalid.test
for macho-invalid-section-index-getSectionRawName now reports the error with the message indicating
that a symbol at a specific index has a bad section index and that bad section index value.
Again converting interfaces to Expected<> from ErrorOr<> does involve
touching a number of places. Where the existing code reported the error with a
string message or an error code it was converted to do the same.
Also there some were bugs in the existing code that did not deal with the
old ErrorOr<> return values. So now with Expected<> since they must be
checked and the error handled, I added a TODO and a comment:
"// TODO: Actually report errors helpfully" and a call something like
consumeError(NameOrErr.takeError()) so the buggy code will not crash
since needed to deal with the Error.

Produce another specific error message for a malformed Mach-O file when a symbol’s
string index is past the end of the string table. The existing test case in test/Object/macho-invalid.test
for macho-invalid-symbol-name-past-eof now reports the error with the message indicating
that a symbol at a specific index has a bad sting index and that bad string index value.
Again converting interfaces to Expected<> from ErrorOr<> does involve
touching a number of places. Where the existing code reported the error with a
string message or an error code it was converted to do the same. There is some
code for this that could be factored into a routine but I would like to leave that for
the code owners post-commit to do as they want for handling an llvm::Error. An
example of how this could be done is shown in the diff in
lib/ExecutionEngine/RuntimeDyld/RuntimeDyldImpl.h which had a Check() routine
already for std::error_code so I added one like it for llvm::Error .
Also there some were bugs in the existing code that did not deal with the
old ErrorOr<> return values. So now with Expected<> since they must be
checked and the error handled, I added a TODO and a comment:
“// TODO: Actually report errors helpfully” and a call something like
consumeError(NameOrErr.takeError()) so the buggy code will not crash
since needed to deal with the Error.
Note there fixes needed to lld that goes along with this that I will commit right after this.
So expect lld not to built after this commit and before the next one.

Produce the first specific error message for a malformed Mach-O file describing
the problem instead of the generic message for object_error::parse_failed of
"Invalid data was encountered while parsing the file”. Many more good error
messages will follow after this first one.
This is built on Lang Hames’ great work of adding the ’Error' class for
structured error handling and threading Error through MachOObjectFile
construction. And making createMachOObjectFile return Expected<...> .
So to to get the error to the llvm-obdump tool, I changed the stack of
these methods to also return Expected<...> :
object::ObjectFile::createObjectFile()
object::SymbolicFile::createSymbolicFile()
object::createBinary()
Then finally in ParseInputMachO() in MachODump.cpp the error can
be reported and the specific error message can be printed in llvm-objdump
and can be seen in the existing test case for the existing malformed binary
but with the updated error message.
Converting these interfaces to Expected<> from ErrorOr<> does involve
touching a number of places. To contain the changes for now use of
errorToErrorCode() and errorOrToExpected() are used where the callers
are yet to be converted.
Also there some were bugs in the existing code that did not deal with the
old ErrorOr<> return values. So now with Expected<> since they must be
checked and the error handled, I added a TODO and a comment:
“// TODO: Actually report errors helpfully” and a call something like
consumeError(ObjOrErr.takeError()) so the buggy code will not crash
since needed to deal with the Error.
Note there is one fix also needed to lld/COFF/InputFiles.cpp that goes along
with this that I will commit right after this. So expect lld not to built
after this commit and before the next one.

Summary:
Rename the section embeds bitcode from ".llvmbc,.llvmbc" to "__LLVM,__bitcode".
The new name matches MachO section naming convention.

getSymbolValue now returns a value that in convenient for most callers:
* 0 for undefined
* symbol size for common symbols
* offset/address for symbols the rest
Code that needs something more specific can check getSymbolFlags.
llvm-svn: 241605
This function can really fail since the string table offset can be out of
bounds.
Using ErrorOr makes sure the error is checked.
Hopefully a lot of the boilerplate code in tools/* can go away once we have
a diagnostic manager in Object.

make_error_code(object_error) is slow because object::object_category()
uses a ManagedStatic variable. But the real problem is that the function is
called too frequently. This patch uses std::error_code() instead of
object_error::success. In most cases, we return "success", so this patch
reduces number of function calls to that function.

Owning the buffer is somewhat inflexible. Some Binaries have sub Binaries
(like Archive) and we had to create dummy buffers just to handle that. It is
also a bad fit for IRObjectFile where the Module wants to own the buffer too.
Keeping this ownership would make supporting IR inside native objects
particularly painful.
This patch focuses in lib/Object. If something elsewhere used to own an Binary,
now it also owns a MemoryBuffer.
This patch introduces a few new types.
* MemoryBufferRef. This is just a pair of StringRefs for the data and name.
This is to MemoryBuffer as StringRef is to std::string.
* OwningBinary. A combination of Binary and a MemoryBuffer. This is needed
for convenience functions that take a filename and return both the
buffer and the Binary using that buffer.
The C api now uses OwningBinary to avoid any change in semantics. I will start
a new thread to see if we want to change it and how.
llvm-svn: 216002
This makes the buffer ownership on error conditions very natural. The buffer
is only moved out of the argument if an object is constructed that now
owns the buffer.
llvm-svn: 211546
This allows us to just use a std::unique_ptr to store the pointer to the buffer.
The flip side is that they have to support releasing the buffer back to the
caller.
Overall this looks like a more efficient and less brittle api.
llvm-svn: 211542
This compiles with no changes to clang/lld/lldb with MSVC and includes
overloads to various functions which are used by those projects and llvm
which have OwningPtr's as parameters. This should allow out of tree
projects some time to move. There are also no changes to libs/Target,
which should help out of tree targets have time to move, if necessary.
llvm-svn: 203083
This interface allows IRObjectFile to be implemented without having dummy
methods for all section and segment related methods.
Both llvm-ar and llvm-nm are changed to use it. Unfortunately the mangler is
still not plugged in since it requires some refactoring to make a Module hold
a DataLayout.
llvm-svn: 201881
identify_magic is not free, so we should avoid calling it twice. The argument
also makes it cheap for createBinary to just forward to createObjectFile.
llvm-svn: 199813
The constructors of classes deriving from Binary normally take an error_code
as an argument to the constructor. My original intent was to change them
to have a trivial constructor and move the initial parsing logic to a static
method returning an ErrorOr. I changed my mind because:
* A constructor with an error_code out parameter is extremely convenient from
the implementation side. We can incrementally construct the object and give
up when we find an error.
* It is very efficient when constructing on the stack or when there is no
error. The only inefficient case is where heap allocating and an error is
found (we have to free the memory).
The result is that this is a much smaller patch. It just standardizes the
create* helpers to return an ErrorOr.
Almost no functionality change: The only difference is that this found that
we were trying to read past the end of COFF import library but ignoring the
error.

Some background: One can pass compiled resource files (.res files) directly
to the linker on Windows. If a resource file is given, the linker will run
"cvtres" command in background to convert the resource file to a COFF file
to link it.
What I'm trying to do with this patch is to make the linker to recognize
the resource file by file magic, so that it can run cvtres command.

The Binary constructor takes ownership of the memory buffer. This is a fairly
unfortunate interface, but for now make createObjectFile consistent with it
by also deleting the buffer if it fails.
Fixes a leak in llvm-ar found by the valgrind bots.

For COFF and MachO, sections semantically have relocations that apply to them.
That is not the case on ELF.
In relocatable objects (.o), a section with relocations in ELF has offsets to
another section where the relocations should be applied.
In dynamic objects and executables, relocations don't have an offset, they have
a virtual address. The section sh_info may or may not point to another section,
but that is not actually used for resolving the relocations.
This patch exposes that in the ObjectFile API. It has the following advantages:
* Most (all?) clients can handle this more efficiently. They will normally walk
all relocations, so doing an effort to iterate in a particular order doesn't
save time.
* llvm-readobj now prints relocations in the same way the native readelf does.
* probably most important, relocations that don't point to any section are now
visible. This is the case of relocations in the rela.dyn section. See the
updated relocation-executable.test for example.

For regular object files this is only meaningful for common symbols. An object
file format with direct support for atoms should be able to provide alignment
information for all symbols.
This replaces getCommonSymbolAlignment and fixes
test-common-symbols-alignment.ll on darwin. This also includes a fix to
MachOObjectFile::getSymbolFlags. It was marking undefined symbols as common
(already tested by existing mcjit tests now that it is used).

politely report it instead of running into llvm_unreachable.
Also patch llvm-dwarfdump to actually check whether the file it's attempting to
dump is a valid object file.
