As a follow on to D56666 (r351186) there is a case when taking the address
of an ifunc when linking -pie that can generate a spurious can't create
dynamic relocation R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21 against symbol in readonly
segment. Specifically the case is where the ifunc is in the same
translation unit as the address taker, so given -fpie the compiler knows
the ifunc is defined in the executable so it can use a non-got-generating
relocation.
The error message is due to R_AARCH64_PLT_PAGE_PC not being added to
isRelExpr, its non PLT equivalent R_AARCH64_PAGE_PC is already in
isRelExpr.

By default LLD will generate position independent Thunks when the --pie or
--shared option is used. Reference to absolute addresses is permitted in
other cases. For some embedded systems position independent thunks are
needed for code that executes before the MMU has been set up. The option
--pic-veneer is used by ld.bfd to force position independent thunks.
The patch adds --pic-veneer as the option is needed for the Linux kernel
on Arm.

RelExpr instances R_AARCH64_GOT_PAGE_PC_PLT and R_GOT_PLT. These need to be

When the range between the source and target of a V7PILongThunk exceeded an
int32 we would trigger a relocation out of range error for the
R_ARM_MOVT_PREL or R_ARM_THM_MOVT_PREL relocation. This case can happen when
linking the linux kernel as it is loaded above 0xf0000000.
There are two parts to the fix.
- Remove the overflow check for R_ARM_MOVT_PREL or R_ARM_THM_MOVT_PREL. The
ELF for the ARM Architecture document defines these relocations as having no
overflow checking so the check was spurious.
- Use int64_t for the offset calculation, in line with similar thunks so
that PC + (S - P) < 32-bits. This results in less surprising disassembly.

The section and offset can be very helpful in diagnosing certian errors.
For example on a relocation overflow or misalignment diagnostic:
test.c:(function foo): relocation R_PPC64_ADDR16_DS out of range: ...
The function foo can have many R_PPC64_ADDR16_DS relocations. Adding the offset
and section will identify exactly which relocation is causing the failure.

In the PPC64 target we map toc-relative relocations, dynamic thread pointer

mistakenly use the mapped type.

ARM and AArch64 use TLS variant 1, where the first two words after the
thread pointer are reserved for the TCB, followed by the executable's TLS
segment. Both the thread pointer and the TLS segment are aligned to at
least the TLS segment's alignment.
Android/Bionic historically has not supported ELF TLS, and it has
allocated memory after the thread pointer for several Bionic TLS slots
(currently 9 but soon only 8). At least one of these allocations
(TLS_SLOT_STACK_GUARD == 5) is widespread throughout Android/AArch64
binaries and can't be changed.
To reconcile this disagreement about TLS memory layout, set the minimum
alignment for executable TLS segments to 8 words on ARM/AArch64, which
reserves at least 8 words of memory after the TP (2 for the ABI-specified
TCB and 6 for alignment padding). For simplicity, and because lld doesn't
know when it's targeting Android, increase the alignment regardless of
operating system.

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.

For the 2-bit bloom filter, we currently pick the bits Hash%64 and Hash>>6%64 (Shift2=6), but bits [6:...] are also used to select a word, causing a loss of precision.
In this patch, we choose Shift2=26, with is suggested by Ambrose Feinstein.
Note, Shift2 is computed as maskbitslog2 in bfd/elflink.c and gold/dynobj.cc
It is varying with the number of dynamic symbols but we don't

Summary:
In glibc, libc.so is a linker script with an as-needed dependency on ld-linux-x86-64.so.2
GROUP ( /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc_nonshared.a AS_NEEDED ( /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 ) )
ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (as-needed) defines some symbols which resolve undefined references in libc.so.6, it will therefore be added as a DT_NEEDED entry, which isn't necessary.
The test case as-needed-not-in-regular.s emulates the libc.so scenario, where ld.bfd and gold don't add DT_NEEDED for a.so
The relevant code in gold/resolve.cc:
// If we have a non-WEAK reference from a regular object to a
// dynamic object, mark the dynamic object as needed.
if (to->is_from_dynobj() && to->in_reg() && !to->is_undef_binding_weak())
to->object()->set_is_needed();
in_reg() appears to do something similar to IsUsedInRegularObj.
This patch makes lld do the similar thing, but moves the check from
addShared to a later stage MarkLive where all symbols are scanned.

This patch gives priority to alloctable SHT_NOTE sections so that they

They are small and contain important information (e.g. .note.gnu.build-id

ARM Architecture v6m is used by the smallest microcontrollers such as the
cortex-m0. It is Thumb only (no Thumb 2) which prevents it from using the
existing Thumb 2 range extension thunks as these use the Thumb 2 movt/movw
instructions. Range extension thunks are not usually needed for
microcontrollers due to the small amount of flash and ram on the device,
however if code is copied from flash into ram then a range extension thunk
is required to call that code.
This change adds support for v6m range extension thunks. The procedure call
standard APCS permits a thunk to corrupt the intra-procedural scratch
register r12 (referred to as ip in the APCS). Most Thumb instructions do
not permit access to high registers (r8 - r15) so the thunks must spill
some low registers (r0 - r7) to perform the control transfer.

In the ABI for the 64-bit Arm architecture the section on weak references
states:
During linking, the symbol value of an undefined weak reference is:
- Zero if the relocation type is absolute
- The address of the place if the relocation type is pc-relative.
The relocations associated with an ADRP are relative so we should resolve
the undefined weak reference to the place instead of 0. This matches GNU
ld.bfd behaviour.

Previously, we have a hash table containing strings and their offsets
to manage mergeable strings. Technically we can live without that, because
we can do binary search on a vector of mergeable strings to find a mergeable
strings.
We did have both the hash table and the binary search because we thought
that that is faster.
We recently observed that lld tend to consume more memory than gold when
building an output with debug info. A few percent of memory is consumed by
the hash table. So, we needed to reevaluate whether or not having the extra
hash table is a good CPU/memory tradeoff. I run a few benchmarks with and
without the hash table.
I got a mixed result for the benchmark. We observed a regression for some
programs by removing the hash table (that's what we expected), but we also
observed that performance imrpovements for some programs. This is perhaps
due to reduced memory usage.
