The --exclude-libs option is not a popular option, but at least some
programs in Android depend on it, so it's worth to support it.

A variable `ComdatGroup` is not supposed to contain a large number of
items. Even when linking clang, it ends up having only 300K strings.
It doesn't make sense to use CachedHashStringRef for this hash table.
This patch has neutral or slightly positive impact on performance while
reducing code complexity.

gnu ld description of option is:
--defsym=symbol=expression
Create a global symbol in the output file, containing the absolute address given
by expression. You may use this option as many times as necessary to define multiple
symbols in the command line. A limited form of arithmetic is supported for the
expression in this context: you may give a hexadecimal constant or the name of an
existing symbol, or use "+" and "-" to add or subtract hexadecimal constants or
symbols. If you need more elaborate expressions, consider using the linker command
language from a script. Note: there should be no white space between symbol,
the equals sign ("="), and expression.
In compare with D32082, this patch does not support math expressions and absolute
symbols. It implemented via code similar to --wrap. That covers 1 of 3 possible
--defsym cases.

With this we have a single section hierarchy. It is a bit less code,
but the main advantage will be in a future patch being able to handle
foo = symbol_in_obj;
in a linker script. Currently that fails since we try to find the
output section of symbol_in_obj. With this we should be able to just
return an InputSection from the expression.
llvm-svn: 297313
The list of all input sections was defined in SymbolTable class for a
historical reason. The list itself is not a template. However, because
SymbolTable class is a template, we needed to pass around ELFT to access
the list. This patch moves the list out of the class so that it doesn't
need ELFT.

This change exposes the symbol table insert method and uses it to
insert the linkerscript defined symbols directly into the symbol
table to avoid unnecessarily pulling the object out of an archive.

The freebsd dynamic linker doesn't check if the value is null (and it
is reasonable for it to do that). That means that producing a .so with
a null DT_INIT/DT_FINI causes the base address to be called.
This should fix the libreoffice build.

Previously, you had to call initDemangledSyms() before accessing DemangledSyms.
Now getDemangledSyms() initializes it and then returns it. So it is now less easy
to use it in a wrong way.

The feature is documented as
-----------------------------
The format of the dynamic list is the same as the version node
without scope and node name. See *note VERSION:: for more
information.
--------------------------------
And indeed qt uses a dynamic list with an 'extern "C++"' in it. With
this patch we support that
The change to gc-sections-shared makes us match bfd. Just because we
kept bar doesn't mean it has to be in the dynamic symbol table.
The changes to invalid-dynamic-list.test and reproduce.s are because
of the new parser.
The changes to version-script.s are the only case where we change
behavior with regards to bfd, but I would like to see a mix of
--version-script and --dynamic-list used in the wild before
complicating the code.

These MIPS specific symbols should be global because in general they can
have an arbitrary value. By default this value is a fixed offset from .got
section.
This patch adds more checks to the mips-gp-local.s test case but marks
it as XFAIL because LLD does not allow redefinition of absolute symbols
value by a linker script. This should be fixed by D27276.

StringRefZ is a class to represent a null-terminated string. String
length is computed lazily, so it's more efficient than StringRef to
represent strings in string table.
The motivation of defining this new class is to merge functions
that only differ in string types; we have many constructors that takes
`const char *` or `StringRef`. With StringRefZ, we can merge them.

There are two ways to set symbol versions. One way is to use symbol
definition file, and the other is to embed version names to symbol
names. In the latter way, symbol name is in the form of `foo@version1`
where `foo` is a real name and `version1` is a version.
We were parsing symbol names in insert(). That seems unnecessarily
too early. We can do it later after we resolve all symbols. Doing it
lazily is a good thing because it makes code easier to read
(because now we have a separate pass to parse symbol names). Also
it could slightly improve performance because if two identical symbols
have versions, we now parse them only once.
llvm-svn: 287741
The code to handle symbol versions is getting tricky and hard to
understand, so it is probably time to simplify it. This patch does
the following.
- Add `DemangledSyms` variable to SymbolTable so that we don't
need to pass it around to findDemangled.
- Define `initDemangledSyms` to initialize the variable lazily.
- hasExternCpp is removed because we no longer have to initialize
the map eagerly.
- scanScriptVersion is split.
- Comments are updated.

Patch adds a filename to that error message.
I faced next error when debugged one of FreeBSD port:

of symbol declaration and using.

The disadvantage is that we use uint64_t instad of uint32_t for some
value in 32 bit files. The advantage is a substantially simpler code,
faster builds and less code duplication.

Previously, we do this piece of code to iterate over all input sections.
for (elf::ObjectFile<ELFT> *F : Symtab.getObjectFiles())
for (InputSectionBase<ELFT> *S : F->getSections())
It turned out that this mechanisms doesn't work well with synthetic
input sections because synthetic input sections don't belong to any
input file.
This patch defines a vector that contains all input sections including
synthetic ones.

Previously, it didn't support the character class, so we couldn't
eliminate the use fo llvm::Regex. Now that it is supported, we
can remove compileGlobPattern, which converts a glob pattern to

Previously, we have a lot of BumpPtrAllocators, but all these

This uses one less word on 64-bit platforms, so should be a strict

Fixed possible segfault, so commit should bix the buildbot.
Initial commit message:
This is PR30312. Info from bug page:
Both of these symbols demangle to abc::abc():
_ZN3abcC1Ev
_ZN3abcC2Ev
(These would be abc's complete object constructor and base object constructor, respectively.)
however with "abc::abc()" in the version script only one of the two receives the symbol version.
Patch fixes that.
It uses testcase created by Ed Maste (D24306).

Previously, all input files were owned by the symbol table.
Files were created at various places, such as the Driver, the lazy
symbols, or the bitcode compiler, and the ownership of new files
was transferred to the symbol table using std::unique_ptr.
All input files were then free'd when the symbol table is freed
which is on program exit.
I think we don't have to transfer ownership just to free all
instance at once on exit.
In this patch, all instances are automatically collected to a
vector and freed on exit. In this way, we no longer have to
use std::unique_ptr.
