Placeholders (-y and redirectSymbols removed versioned symbols) are very rare and
the check just makes symbol table iteration slower. Most iterations filter out
placeholders anyway, so this change just drops the filter behavior.
For "Add symbols to symtabs", we need to ensure that redirectSymbols sets
isUsedInRegularObj to false when making a symbol placeholder, to avoid an
assertion failure in SymbolTableSection<ELFT>::writeTo.
My .text is 2KiB smaller. The speed-up linking chrome is 0.x%.
Currently the singleton `config` is assigned by `config = make<Configuration>()`
and (if `canExitEarly` is false) destroyed by `lld::freeArena`.
`make<Configuration>` allocates a stab with `malloc(4096)`. This both wastes
memory and bloats the executable (every type instantiates `BumpPtrAllocator`
which costs more than 1KiB code on x86-64).
(No need to worry about `clang::no_destroy`. Regular invocations (`canExitEarly`
is true) call `_Exit` via llvm::sys::Process::ExitNoCleanup.)

Currently version script patterns are ignored for .symver produced
non-default version (single @) symbols. This makes such symbols
not localizable by `local:`, e.g.
```
.symver foo3_v1,foo3@v1
.globl foo_v1
foo3_v1:
ld.lld --version-script=a.ver -shared a.o
```
This patch adds the support:
* Move `config->versionDefinitions[VER_NDX_LOCAL].patterns` to `config->versionDefinitions[versionId].localPatterns`
* Rename `config->versionDefinitions[versionId].patterns` to `config->versionDefinitions[versionId].nonLocalPatterns`
* Allow `findAllByVersion` to find non-default version symbols when `includeNonDefault` is true. (Note: `symtab` keys do not have `@@`)
* Make each pattern check both the unversioned `pat.name` and the versioned `${pat.name}@${v.name}`
* `localPatterns` can localize `${pat.name}@${v.name}`. `nonLocalPatterns` can prevent localization by assigning `verdefIndex` (before `parseSymbolVersion`).

If a user notices new `undefined symbol` errors with a version script containing
`local: *;`, the issue is likely due to a missing `global:` pattern.

This fixes PR38549, which is silently accepted by ld.bfd.
This seems correct because it makes sense to let non-glob patterns take
precedence over glob patterns.
lld issues an error because
`assignWildcardVersion(ver, VER_NDX_LOCAL);` is processed before `assignExactVersion(ver, v.id, v.name);`.
Move all assignWildcardVersion() calls after assignExactVersion() calls
to fix this.
Also, move handleDynamicList() to the bottom. computeBinding() called by
includeInDynsym() has this cryptic rule:
if (versionId == VER_NDX_LOCAL && isDefined() && !isPreemptible)
return STB_LOCAL;
Before the change:
* foo's version is set to VER_NDX_LOCAL due to `local: *`
* handleDynamicList() is called
- foo.computeBinding() is STB_LOCAL
- foo.includeInDynsym() is false
- foo.isPreemptible is not set (wrong)
* foo's version is set to V1

This patch is mechanically generated by clang-llvm-rename tool that I wrote
using Clang Refactoring Engine just for creating this patch. You can see the
source code of the tool at https://reviews.llvm.org/D64123. There's no manual
post-processing; you can generate the same patch by re-running the tool against
lld's code base.
Here is the main discussion thread to change the LLVM coding style:
https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-February/130083.html
In the discussion thread, I proposed we use lld as a testbed for variable
naming scheme change, and this patch does that.
I chose to rename variables so that they are in camelCase, just because that
is a minimal change to make variables to start with a lowercase letter.
Note to downstream patch maintainers: if you are maintaining a downstream lld
repo, just rebasing ahead of this commit would cause massive merge conflicts
because this patch essentially changes every line in the lld subdirectory. But
there's a remedy.
clang-llvm-rename tool is a batch tool, so you can rename variables in your
downstream repo with the tool. Given that, here is how to rebase your repo to
a commit after the mass renaming:
1. rebase to the commit just before the mass variable renaming,
2. apply the tool to your downstream repo to mass-rename variables locally, and
3. rebase again to the head.
Most changes made by the tool should be identical for a downstream repo and
for the head, so at the step 3, almost all changes should be merged and
disappear. I'd expect that there would be some lines that you need to merge by
hand, but that shouldn't be too many.

This is the last patch of the series of patches to make it possible to
resolve symbols without asking SymbolTable to do so.
The main point of this patch is the introduction of
`elf::resolveSymbol(Symbol *Old, Symbol *New)`. That function resolves
or merges given symbols by examining symbol types and call
replaceSymbol (which memcpy's New to Old) if necessary.
With the new function, we have now separated symbol resolution from
symbol lookup. If you already have a Symbol pointer, you can directly
resolve the symbol without asking SymbolTable to do that.
Now that the nice abstraction become available, I can start working on
performance improvement of the linker. As a starter, I'm thinking of
making --{start,end}-lib faster.
--{start,end}-lib is currently unnecessarily slow because it looks up
the symbol table twice for each symbol.
- The first hash table lookup/insertion occurs when we instantiate a
LazyObject file to insert LazyObject symbols.
- The second hash table lookup/insertion occurs when we create an
ObjFile from LazyObject file. That overwrites LazyObject symbols
with Defined symbols.
I think it is not too hard to see how we can now eliminate the second
hash table lookup. We can keep LazyObject symbols in Step 1, and then
call elf::resolveSymbol() to do Step 2.

Previously, we handled common symbols as a kind of Defined symbol,
but what we were doing for common symbols is pretty different from
regular defined symbols.
Common symbol and defined symbol are probably as different as shared
symbol and defined symbols are different.
This patch introduces CommonSymbol to represent common symbols.
After symbols are resolved, they are converted to Defined symbols
residing in a .bss section.

SymbolTable's add-family functions have lots of parameters because
when they have to create a new symbol, they forward given arguments
to Symbol's constructors. Therefore, the functions take at least as
many arguments as their corresponding constructors.
This patch simplifies the add-family functions. Now, the functions
take a symbol instead of arguments to construct a symbol. If there's
no existing symbol, a given symbol is memcpy'ed to the symbol table.
Otherwise, the functions attempt to merge the existing and a given
new symbol.
I also eliminated `CanOmitFromDynSym` parameter, so that the functions
take really one argument.
Symbol classes are trivially constructible, so looks like constructing
them to pass to add-family functions is as cheap as passing a lot of
arguments to the functions. A quick benchmark showed that this patch
seems performance-neutral.

Summary:
In ld.bfd/gold, --no-allow-shlib-undefined is the default when linking
an executable. This patch implements a check to error on undefined
symbols in a shared object, if all of its DT_NEEDED entries are seen.
Our approach resembles the one used in gold, achieves a good balance to
be useful but not too smart (ld.bfd traces all DSOs and emulates the
behavior of a dynamic linker to catch more cases).
The error is issued based on the symbol table, different from undefined
reference errors issued for relocations. It is most effective when there
are DSOs that were not linked with -z defs (e.g. when static sanitizers
runtime is used).
gold has a comment that some system libraries on GNU/Linux may have
spurious undefined references and thus system libraries should be
excluded (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6811). The
story may have changed now but we make --allow-shlib-undefined the
default for now. Its interaction with -shared can be discussed in the
future.

Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM

Summary:
If a DSO appears more than once with and without --as-needed, ld.bfd and gold consider --no-as-needed to takes precedence over --as-needed. lld didn't and this patch makes it do so.
This makes it a bit away from the position-dependent behavior (how
different occurrences of the same DSO interact) and protects us from
some mysterious runtime errors: if some interceptor libraries add their
own --no-as-needed dependencies (e.g. librt.so), and the user
application specifies -Wl,--as-needed -lrt , the absence of the
DT_NEEDED entry would make dlsym(RTLD_NEXT, "clock_gettime") return NULL
and would break at runtime.

We have an issue with -wrap that the option doesn't work well when
renamed symbols get PLT entries. I'll explain what is the issue and
how this patch solves it.
For one -wrap option, we have three symbols: foo, wrap_foo and real_foo.
Currently, we use memcpy to overwrite wrapped symbols so that they get
the same contents. This works in most cases but doesn't when the relocation
processor sets some flags in the symbol. memcpy'ed symbols are just
aliases, so they always have to have the same contents, but the
relocation processor breaks that assumption.
r336609 is an attempt to fix the issue by memcpy'ing again after
processing relocations, so that symbols that are out of sync get the
same contents again. That works in most cases as well, but it breaks
ASan build in a mysterious way.
We could probably fix the issue by choosing symbol attributes that need
to be copied after they are updated. But it feels too complicated to me.
So, in this patch, I fixed it once and for all. With this patch, we no
longer memcpy symbols. All references to renamed symbols point to new
symbols after wrapSymbols() is done.
