The reason of collecting all undefines in vector is that during reading files we already need to have Symtab created. Or like was done in that patch - to put undefines from scripts somewhere to delay Symtab.addUndefinedOpt() call.

Instead of specifically creating .plt entries for weak undef symbols, mirror
the logic in r250584, and use canBePreempted to determine is a REL24 relocation
needs a .plt entry. This might cause relocateOne to be called for a weak undef
symbol, with a REL24 relocation, but ignore this as a special case (this will
cause SA == 0, which won't happen under any other circumstance).
llvm-svn: 250597
There is sometimes no need to generate relocation via PLT.
Example - when symbol is not undefined and we are not creating shared library. Then we can create relative relocation instead of referencing and creating PLT records.
Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D13835
llvm-svn: 250584
When we have a R_PPC64_ADDR64 for a weak undef symbol, which thus resolves to
0, and we're creating a shared library, we need to make sure that it stays 0
(because code that conditionally calls the weak function tests for this).
Unfortunately, we were creating a R_PPC64_RELATIVE for these relocation
targets, making the address of the undefined weak symbol equal to the base
address of the shared library (which is non-zero). In general, we should not be
creating RelativeReloc relocs for undef weak symbols.
llvm-svn: 250558
R_PPC64_TOC does not have an associated symbol, but does have a non-zero VA
that target-specific code must compute using some non-trivial rule. We
handled this as a special case in PPC64TargetInfo::relocateOne, where
we knew to write this special address, but that did not work when creating shared
libraries. The special TOC address needs to be the subject of a
R_PPC64_RELATIVE relocation, and so we also need to know how to encode this
special address in the addend of that relocation.
Thus, some target-specific logic is necessary when creating R_PPC64_RELATIVE as
well. To solve this problem, we teach getLocalRelTarget to handle R_PPC64_TOC
as a special case. This allows us to remove the special case in
PPC64TargetInfo::relocateOne (simplifying code there), and naturally allows the
existing logic to do the right thing when creating associated R_PPC64_RELATIVE
relocations for shared libraries.
llvm-svn: 250555
If a section name is valid as a C identifier (which is rare because of
the leading '.'), linkers are expected to define __start_<secname> and
__stop_<secname> symbols. They are at beginning and end of the section,
respectively. This is not requested by the ELF standard, but GNU ld and
gold provide this feature.
llvm-svn: 250432
Unfortunately, the check was not as dead as I had thought, and adjusting the
starting VA again exposed the problem. We end up trying to relocate the bl
(using a 24-bit relative offset) to a symbol address of zero, and in general,
that does not fit.
Thus, reverting for now, and adding a test case.
llvm-svn: 250423
After some additional post-commit (post-revert) discussion and research, this
reverts, in part, r250205, so the ABI-recommended starting address can be used
on PPC64 (as is done by other linkers).
Also, this addresses the FIXME in ELF/Writer.cpp by making VAStart a
target-dependent property.
llvm-svn: 250378
If an argument for --entry is a number, that's not a symbol name but
an absolute address. If that's the case, the address is directly set

Previously, we used input section names as output section names.
That resulted that we created lots of sections for comdat
or -f{function,data}-section sections.
This patch reduces the number of sections by dropping suffix from
all section names which start with ".text.", ".rodata.", ".data."
or ".bss.". GNU linker does this using the internal linker script,
but for LLD I chose to do that directly.
Interestingly, this makes the linker faster. Time to link Clang
is this.
Before:
real 0m0.537s
user 0m0.433s
sys 0m0.104s
After:
real 0m0.390s
user 0m0.268s
sys 0m0.120s
It make sense because previously we created 57659 sections now only 27.

What was done:
1) .got.plt section is created for functions that requires PLT. .got.plt has 3 predefined empty entries now that are required for dynamic linker.
Also other new items created are configured to have correct jump to PLT[N].
2) PLT section now has PLT[0] entry, also others ones are configured to support PLT->GOT(.got.plt) calls.
3) Implemented .rel[a].plt sections (based on patch http://reviews.llvm.org/D13569).
4) Fixed plt relocations types (based on patch http://reviews.llvm.org/D13589).
NOTES:
The .plt.got zero entry is still empty now. According to ELF specification it should hold the address of the dynamic structure, referenced with the symbol
_DYNAMIC. The _DYNAMIC entry points to the .dynamic section which contains information used by the ELF interpreter to setup the binary.
Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D13651
llvm-svn: 250169
Under PPC64 ELF v1 ABI, the symbols associated with each function name don't
point directly to the code in the .text section (or similar), but rather to a
function descriptor structure in a special data section named .opd. The
elements in the .opd structure include a pointer to the actual code, and a the
relevant TOC base value. Both of these are themselves set by relocations.
When we have a local call, we need the relevant relocation to refer directly to
the target code, not to the function-descriptor in the .opd section. Only when
we have a .plt stub do we care about the address of the .opd function
descriptor itself.
So we make a few changes here:
1. Always write .opd first, so that its relocated data values are available
for later use when writing the text sections. Record a pointer to the .opd
structure, and its corresponding buffer.
2. When processing a relative branch relocation under ppc64, if the
destination points into the .opd section, read the code pointer out of the
function descriptor structure and use that instead.
This this, I can link, and run, a dynamically-compiled "hello world"
application on big-Endian PPC64/Linux (ELF v1 ABI) using lld.
llvm-svn: 250122
Under the PPC64 ELF ABI, functions that might call into other modules (and,
thus, need to load a different TOC base value into %r2), need to restore the
old value after the call. The old value is saved by the .plt code, and the
caller only needs to include a nop instruction after the call, which the linker
will transform into a TOC restore if necessary.
In order to do this the relocation handler needs two things:
1. It needs to know whether the call instruction it is modifying is targeting
a .plt stub that will load a new TOC base value (necessitating a restore after
the call).
2. It needs to know where the buffer ends, so that it does not accidentally
run off the end of the buffer when looking for the 'nop' instruction after the
call.
Given these two pieces of information, we can insert the restore instruction in
place of the following nop when necessary.
llvm-svn: 250110
This is mostly an adaptation of the code in LLVM's
lib/ExecutionEngine/RuntimeDyld/RuntimeDyldELF.cpp, and handles a sufficient
number of relocations to link a 'hello world' program on big-Endian PPC64/Linux
(ELF v1 ABI).
llvm-svn: 250101
PPC64 has several special sections that are intended to be accessed from the
TOC base pointer. When a .got is present, the TOC base pointer is .got + 0x8000
(as specified by the ABI). Furthermore, the glibc startup code contains an
assumption that a 16-bit relocation can hold the offset from the TOC base value
to the beginning of the .toc section. Thus, we need to make sure that .toc
appears after .got. This much, at least, is required in practice. The other
PPC64 special sections (.toc, .toc1, .opd, etc.) should also be close by to
optimize access by smaller TOC-base-pointer offsets.
llvm-svn: 250100
In order to actually verify the condition, we have to use a weak symbol.
If an undefined symbol is not used at all, it is naturally ignored not by
the code for --as-needed but by the code for something else.
llvm-svn: 250062
This patch adds AsNeeded and IsUsed bool fields to SharedFile. AsNeeded bit
is set if the DSO is enclosed with --as-needed and --no-as-needed. IsUsed
bit is off by default. When we adds a symbol to the symbol table for dynamic
linking, we set its SharedFile's IsUsed bit.
If AsNeeded is set but IsUsed is not set, we don't want to write that
file's SO name to DT_NEEDED field.

In the linker script, -l and = have the same meaning as in the command line.

Previously, we reserved the first page for the program header, so no
sections would be written to very beginning of the output file.
FreeBSD requires .interp section be exist on the first page, so that
was not good.
This patch calculates the size of the program header and then assign
addresses to the sections. Now the first section is located next to
the program header. Because the first section is .interp, it's very
likely to be on the first page.
llvm-svn: 249957
SymbolTable was not a template class. Instead we had switch-case-based
type dispatch to call desired functions. We had to do that because
SymbolTable was created before we know what ELF type objects had been
passed.
Every time I tried to add a new function to the symbol table, I had to
define a dispatcher which consist of a single switch statement.
It also brought an restriction what the driver can do. For example,
we cannot add undefined symbols before any files are added to the symbol
table. That's because no symbols can be added until the symbol table
knows the ELF type, but when it knows about that, it's too late.
In this patch, the driver makes a decision on what ELF type objects
are being handled. Then the driver creates a SymbolTable object for
an appropriate ELF type.

If --whole-archive is used, all symbols from the following archives are added to the output. --no-whole-archive restores default behavior. These switches can be used multiple times.
NB. We have to keep an ArchiveFile instance within SymbolTable even if --whole-archive mode is active since it can be a thin archive which contains just names of external files. In that case actual memory buffers for the archive members will be stored within the File member of ArchiveFile class.

This linker script parser and evaluator is powerful enough to read

It does *not* construct an AST but consumes directives in place and

Since FreeBSD 4.1, the kernel expects binaries to be marked with
ELFOSABI_FREEBSD in the ELF header to exec() them. LLD unconditionally
sets OSABI to ELF_OSABINONE, and everything linked with it won't run
on FreeBSD (unless explicitly rebranded).
Example:
% ./aarch64-hello
ELF binary type "0" not known.
zsh: exec format error: ./aarch64-hello
FreeBSD could be modified to accept ELF_OSABINONE, but that would break all
existing binaries, so the kernel needs to support both ABINONE and ABIFREEBSD.
I plan to push this change in FreeBSD one day, which, unfortunately, is
not today. This code patches lld so it sets the header field correctly.
For completeness, the rationale of this change is explained in the FreeBSD
