When generating an executable or shared library, mark it to tell the dynamic linker to resolve all symbols when the program is started, or when the shared library is linked to using dlopen, instead of deferring function call resolution to the point when the function is first called.

I am about to change lld to avoid creating unnecessary got entries for locally
defined symbols when creating executables.
Update tests that were depending on the current behavior.

We were still fetching them when the archive was seen first.
We should experiment with just letting lazy symbols get to compare, it
might be cleaner for ELF.
llvm-svn: 249417
This is a case that requires --start-group --end-group with regular ELF
linkers. Fortunately it is still possible to handle it with lazy symbols without
taking a second look at archives.
Thanks to Michael Spencer for the bug report.

The entries are added if there are "_init" or "_fini" entries in
the symbol table respectively. According to the behavior of ld,
entries are inserted even for undefined symbols.
Symbol names can be overridden by using -init and -fini command
line switches. If used, these switches neither add new symbol table
entries nor require those symbols to be resolved.

Add symbol specified with -u as undefined which may cause additional

Using the "raw" Elf64_Dyn or Elf32_Dyn structures in
DynamicSection<ELFT>::writeTo does not correctly handle mixed-Endian
situations. Instead, use the corresponding llvm::object::* structures which
have Endian-converting members (like the rest of the code).
This fixes all currently-failing elf2 tests when running on big-Endian
PPC64/Linux (I've added a big-Endian test case which should fail on
little-Endian machines in the same way that test/elf2/shared.s failed on
big-Endian machines prior to this change).

The dynamic section is finalized early because it adds strings to the dynamic string table, which comes before the dynamic table.
llvm-svn: 249071
Summary:
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.

Summary:
These switches affect library searching for '-l' which follow them. Synonym forms are also supported:
* -dy and -call_shared for -Bdynamic switch
* -dn, -non_shared and -static for -Bstatic switch

If a shared library has a DT_SONAME entry, that is what should be included
in the DT_NEEDED of a program using it.
We don't implement -soname yet, so check in a .so for now.

This linker script parser and evaluator is powerful enough to read
Linux's libc.so, which is (despite its name) a linker script that
contains OUTPUT_FORMAT, GROUP and AS_NEEDED directives.
The parser implemented in this patch is a recursive-descendent one.
It does *not* construct an AST but consumes directives in place and
sets the results to Symtab object, like what Driver is doing.
This should be very fast since less objects are allocated, and
this is also more readable.

The code in driver is about to change so that the invalid files would no

This is a basic initial implementation of the -flat_namespace and
-undefined options for LLD-darwin. It ignores several subtlties,
but the result is close enough that we can now link LLVM (but not
clang) on Darwin and pass all regression tests.
llvm-svn: 248732
There's actually a room to improve this patch. Instead of not merging
sections that have different alignements, we can choose the section that
has the largest alignment requirement among all sections that are otherwise
considered the same. Then all section alignments are satisfied, so we can
merge them.
I don't know if that improvement could make any difference for real-world
input, so I'll leave it alone. Would be interesting to revisit later.

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
commit message, and it's apparently to pleasee binutils maintainers at the time.

This is just enough to get PLT working on 32 bit x86.
The idea behind using a virtual interface is that it should be easy to
convert any of the functions to template parameters if any turns out to be
performance critical.

This is an LLD extension to MSVC link.exe command line. MSVC linker
does not write symbol tables for executables. We do unless no /debug
option is given.
There's a situation that we want to enable debug info but don't want
to emit the symbol table. One example is when we are comparing output
file size. With this patch, you can tell the linker to not create
a symbol table by just specifying /nosymtab.

This patch fixes a regression introduced by r247964. Relocations that
are referring the same symbol should be considered equal, but they
were not if they were pointing to non-section chunks.

The offset of the .rela.dyn section isn't the same between hosts because a path comes before it. This test doesn't care what the offset is.

We used to sort the symbols at the very end, but we need to know the order
earlier so that we can create reference to them in the dynamic relocations.
Thanks to Igor Kudrin for pointing out the problem.

Only live symbols are written to the symbol table. Because isLive()
returned false if dead-stripping was disabled entirely, only
non-COMDAT sections were written to the symbol table. This patch fixes
the issue.

Symbol table is now populated correctly, but some fields are missing,
they'll be added in the future. This patch also adds --discard-all

This is a patch to make LLD to be on par with MSVC in terms of ICF
effectiveness. MSVC produces a 27.14MB executable when linking LLD.
LLD previously produced a 27.61MB when self-linking. Now the size
is reduced to 27.11MB. Note that without ICF the size is 29.63MB.
In r247387, I implemented an algorithm that handles section graphs
as cyclic graphs and merge them using SCC. The algorithm did not
always work as intended as I demonstrated in r247721. The new
algortihm implemented in this patch is different from the previous
one. If you are interested the details, you want to read the file
comment of ICF.cpp.

In this test, we have two functions, foo and bar. MSVC linker can
choose one and discard the other using ICF. LLD cannot. I add this
test as a TODO.
foo and bar are conceptually equivalent to the following:
void foo() { foo(); }
void bar() { foo(); }
foo and bar are effectively the same function. If foo and bar are
compiled to the same instructions, both their contents (foo and bar)
and relocation targets (foo) become the same, so from the ICF point
of view, they are reducible. But their graphs are not isomorphic!
LLD's ICF algorithm cannot handle this case yet.
llvm-svn: 247721
The first test (call) is now the only test to use .text, which makes it
resistant to more tests being added.
llvm-objdump -d already prints the addresses of symbols. We can use that in the
tests.
