This makes it a bit more like a 'real' iterator though I still haven't
gone through to make sure it meets the full requirements. Copy
assignability seems to be required by MSVC's std::find_if, which is its
right.

This patch implements parsing of the GNU ld MEMORY command [1].
The command and the memory block definitions are parsed as
specified (including the slightly strange "o" and "l" keywords).
Evaluation will be added at a later point in time.

The expression evaluation is needed when interpreting linker scripts, in order
to calculate the value for new symbols or to determine a new position to load
sections in memory. This commit extends Expression nodes from the linker script
AST with evaluation functions, and also contains a unit test.

Previously, getEmptyKey and getTombstoneKey return the same value
in the sense of isEqual defined by the same class, although they
need to be distinct values. This could confuse DenseMap.
We didn't see any issue by this wrong code because we don't delete
elements from the symbol table. We only add or replace elements.
But this is a bug and needs to be fixed anyway.

All defined symbols from all archive files are inserted to _archiveMap,
so performance of hash table matters here (I'm not trying to convert
all std::maps with DenseMaps). This change seems to make the linker
0.5% - 1% faster for my test case.
llvm-svn: 231584
In the resolver, we maintain a list of undefined symbols, and when we
visit an archive file, we check that file if undefined symbols can be
resolved using files in the archive. The archive file class provides
find() function to lookup a symbol.
Previously, we call find() for each undefined symbols. Archive files
may be visited multiple times if they are in a --start-group and
--end-group. If we visit a file M times and if we have N undefined
symbols, find() is called M*N times. I found that that is one of the
most significant bottlenecks in LLD when linking a large executable.
find() is not a very cheap operation because it looks up a hash table
for a given string. And a string, or a symbol name, can be pretty long
if you are dealing with C++ symbols.
We can eliminate the bottleneck.
Calling find() with the same symbol multiple times is a waste. If a
result of looking up a symbol is "not found", it stays "not found"
forever because the symbol simply doesn't exist in the archive.
Thus, we should call find() only for newly-added undefined symbols.
This optimization makes O(M*N) O(N).
In this patch, all undefined symbols are added to a vector. For each
archive/shared library file, we maintain a start position P. All
symbols [0, P) are already searched. [P, end of the vector) are not
searched yet. For each file, we scan the vector only once.
This patch changes the order in which undefined symbols are looked for.
Previously, we iterated over the result of _symbolTable.undefines().
Now we iterate over the new vector. This is a benign change but caused
differences in output if remaining undefines exist. This is why some
tests are updated.
The performance improvement of this patch seems sometimes significant.
Previously, linking chrome.dll on my workstation (Xeon 2.4GHz 8 cores)
took about 70 seconds. Now it takes (only?) 30 seconds!

_reverseRef is a multimap from atoms to atoms. The map contains
reverse edges of "layout-before" and "group" edges for dead-stripping.
The type of the variable was DenseMap<Atom *, DenseSet<Atom *>>.
This patch changes that to std::unordered_multimap<Atom *, Atom *>.
A DenseMap with a value type of DenseSet was not fast. Inserting 900k
items to the map took about 1.6 seconds on my workstation.
unordered_multimap on the other hand took only 0.6 seconds.
Use of the map also got faster -- originally markLive took 1.3 seconds
in the same test case, and it now took 1.0 seconds. In total we shove
off 1.3 seconds out of 27 seconds in that test case.

We maintain a map from symbols to archive files for the archive file
pre-loading. That map is created at the beginning of the resolve()
and is never updated. However, the input file list may be updated by
File::beforeLink(). This is a patch to update the map after beforeLink.
llvm-svn: 231395
Merge::mergeByLargestSection is half-baked since it's defined
in terms of section size, there's no way to get the section size
of an atom.
Currently we work around the issue by traversing the layout edges
to both directions and calculate the sum of all atoms reachable.
I wrote that code but I knew it's hacky. It's even not guaranteed
to work. If you add layout edges before the core linking, it
miscalculates a size.
Also it's of course slow. It's basically a linked list traversal.
In this patch I added DefinedAtom::sectionSize so that we can use
that for mergeByLargestSection. I'm not very happy to add a new
field to DefinedAtom base class, but I think it's legitimate since
mergeByLargestSection is defined for section size, and the section
size is currently just missing.

File objects are not really const in the resolver. We set ordinals to
them and call beforeLink hooks. Also, File's member functions marked
as const are not really const. ArchiveFile never returns the same
member file twice, so it remembers files returned before. find() has
side effects.
In order to deal with the inconsistencies, we sprinkled const_casts
and marked member varaibles as mutable.
This patch removes const from there to reflect the reality.

std::promise and std::future in old version of libstdc++ are buggy.
I think that's the reason why LLD tests were flaky on Ubuntu 13
buildbots until we disabled file preloading.
In this patch, I implemented very simple future and used that in
FileArchive. Compared to std::promise and std::future, it lacks
many features, but should serve our purpose.

"virtual" was present at a wrong place. FileArchive is a subclass of
ArchiveLibraryFile, and a FileArchive can be deleted through a
pointer of ArchiveLibraryFile. We want to make the destructor of the
base class virtual.

In doParse, we shouldn't do anything that has side effects. That function may be
called speculatively and possibly in parallel.
We called WinLinkDriver::parse from doParse to parse a command line in a .drectve
section. The parse function updates a linking context object, so it has many side
effects. It was not safe to call that function from doParse. beforeLink is a
function for a File object to do something that has side effects. Moving a call
of WinLinkDriver::parse to there.

Nothing wrong with reinterpret_cast<llvm::support::ulittle32_t *>(loc),
but that's redundant and not great from readability point of view.
The new functions are wrappers for that kind of reinterpet_casts.
Surprisingly or unsurprisingly, there was no use of big endian read
and write. {read,write}{16,32,64}be have no user. But I think they
still worth to be there in the header for completeness.

Previously we have a string -> string map to keep the weak alias
symbol mapping. Naturally we can't define more than one weak alias
with that data structure.
This patch is to allow multiple aliases for the same symbol by
changing the map type to string -> set of string map.

This is mainly for back-compatibility with GNU ld.
Ideally --stats should be a general option in LinkingContext, providing
individual stats for every pass in the linking process.
In the GNU driver, a better wording could be used, but there's no need
to change it for now.

The round-trip passes were introduced in r193300. The intention of
the change was to make sure that LLD is capable of reading end
writing such file formats.
But that turned out to be yet another over-designed stuff that had
been slowing down everyday development.
The passes ran after the core linker and before the writer. If you
had an additional piece of information that needs to be passed from
front-end to the writer, you had to invent a way to save the data to
YAML/Native. These passes forced us to do that even if that data
was not needed to be represented neither in an object file nor in
an executable/DSO. It doesn't make sense. We don't need these passes.

LinkerScript AST nodes are never destroyed which means that their
std::vector members will never be destroyed.
Instead, allocate the operand list itself in the Parser's
BumpPtrAllocator. This ensures that the storage will be destroyed along
with the nodes when the Parser is destroyed.

Wrap functionality was using a std::set to record symbols that need to be
wrapped. This changes the implementation to use a StringSet instead.
No change in functionality.
llvm-svn: 229165
Use a wrapper function for symbol. Any undefined reference to symbol will be
resolved to "__wrap_symbol". Any undefined reference to "__real_symbol" will be
resolved to symbol.
This can be used to provide a wrapper for a system function. The wrapper
function should be called "__wrap_symbol". If it wishes to call the system
function, it should call "__real_symbol".
Here is a trivial example:
void * __wrap_malloc (size_t c)
{
printf ("malloc called with %zu\n", c);
return __real_malloc (c);
}
If you link other code with this file using --wrap malloc, then all calls
to "malloc" will call the function "__wrap_malloc" instead. The call to
"__real_malloc" in "__wrap_malloc" will call the real "malloc" function.

This adds the LinkingContext parameter to the ELFReader. Previously the flags in
that were needed in the Context was passed to the ELFReader, this made it very
hard to access data structures in the LinkingContext when reading an ELF file.
This change makes the ELFReader more flexible so that required parameters can be
grabbed directly from the LinkingContext.
Future patches make use of the changes.
There is no change in functionality though.
