In a non-LTO build is a nop. In a LTO build, we deallocate/destroy
managed static and this allows us to get the output of, e.g.,
-time-passes without performing a full shutdown.

Relocations are the last thing that we wore storing a raw section
pointer to and parsing on demand.
With this patch we parse it only once and store a pointer to the
actual data.
The patch also changes where we store it. It is now in
InputSectionBase. Not all sections have relocations, but most do and
this simplifies the logic. It also means that we now only support one
relocation section per section. Given that that constraint is
maintained even with -r with gold bfd and lld, I think it is OK.

Patch allows to pass a symbols file to linker.
LLD will map symbols to sections and sort sections
in output according to symbol ordering file.
That can help to reduce the startup time and/or
amount of pagefaults during startup.
Also, interesting benchmark result was produced by Rafael Espíndola.
After applying the symbols file for clang he timed compiling
X86MCTargetDesc.ii to an object file.
The page faults went from just
56,988 to 56,946 since most faults are not in the binary.
Running time went from 4.403053515 to 4.178112244.
The speedup seems to be because of better cache
locality.

Previously, we have both input and output section for .MIPS.abiflags.
Now we have only one class for .MIPS.abiflags, which is MipsAbiFlagsSection.
This class is a synthetic input section.
.MIPS.abiflags sections are handled as regular sections until
the control reaches Writer. Writer then aggregates all sections
whose type is SHT_MIPS_ABIFLAGS to create a single synthesized
input section. The synthesized section is then processed normally
as if it came from an input file.

Previously, we have both input and output sections for .reginfo and
.MIPS.options. Now for each such sections we have one synthetic input
sections: MipsReginfoSection and MipsOptionsSection respectively.
Both sections are handled as regular sections until the control reaches
Writer. Writer then aggregates all sections whose type is SHT_MIPS_REGINFO
or SHT_MIPS_OPTIONS to create a single synthesized input section. In that
moment Writer also save GP0 value to the MipsGp0 field of the corresponding
ObjectFile. This value required for R_MIPS_GPREL16 and R_MIPS_GPREL32
relocations calculation.

The ARM 32 and 64-bit ABI does not use 0 for undefined weak references
that are used in PC relative relocations. In particular:
- A branch relocation to an undefined weak resolves to the next
instruction. Effectively making the branch a no-op
- In all other cases the symbol resolves to the place so that S + A - P
resolves to A.

A CommonInputSection is a section containing all common symbols.
That was an input section but was abstracted in a different way
than the synthetic input sections because it was written before
the synthetic input section was invented.
This patch rewrites CommonInputSection as a synthetic input section
so that it behaves better with other sections.

In short the patch introduces support for linking object file conform
MIPS N32 ABI [1]. This ABI is similar to N64 ABI but uses 32-bit
pointer size.
The most non-trivial requirement of this ABI is one more relocation
packing format. N64 ABI puts multiple relocation type into the single
relocation record. The N32 ABI uses series of successive relocations
with the same offset for this purpose. In this patch, new function
`mergeMipsN32RelTypes` handle this case and "convert" N32 relocation to
the N64 relocation so the rest of the code keep unchanged.
For now, linker does not support series of relocations applied to sections
without SHF_ALLOC bit. Probably later I will add the support or insert
some sort of assert into the `relocateNonAlloc` routine to catch this
case.

This change fixes a bug that was introduced by r285851.
r285851 converted .interp section as an output section to an input

is given, it was garbage collected.

An undefined weak reference is given an address of 0 this will
incorrectly trigger the creation of a Thumb to ARM interworking Thunk
if there is a Thumb branch instruction to the symbol. This results in
an error as Thunks only make sense to defined or shared symbols.
We prevent this by detecting an undefined symbol and not creating a thunk
for it.

When we have SHT_GNU_versym section, it is should be associated with symbol table
section. Usually (and in out implementation) it is .dynsym.
In case when .dynsym is absent (due to broken object for example),
lld crashes in parseVerdefs() when accesses null pointer:
Versym = reinterpret_cast<const Elf_Versym *>(this->ELFObj.base() +
VersymSec->sh_offset) +
this->Symtab->sh_info;

Previously, we added strings from DynamicSection::finalize().
It was a bit tricky because finalize() is supposed to fix the final
size of the section, but adding new strings would change the size of
.dynstr section. So there was a dependency between finalize functions
of .dynamic and .dynstr.
However, I noticed that we can elimiante the dependency by simply
add strings early; we don't have to do that in finalize() but can do
from DynamicSection's ctor.
This patch defines a new function, DynamicSection::addEntries, to
add .dynamic entries that doesn't depend on other sections.

The example reported in PR30793 shows a case where gc reclaims
a SHF_TLS section, but it doesn't reclaim the section containing
the debug info for it.
This is expected, as we do not reclaim non-alloc sections
during the garbage collection phase (and this is not going to
change anytime soon, at least this is what I gathered last I
talked with Rafael about it).
So, we end up with a pending reference, thinking that the input
was invalid (which is not true, as it's GC that removed the
SHT_TLS section, and therefore didn't create the PT_TLS *segment*
for it). In cases like this, just assign a VA of zero at relocation
time instead of error'ing out (this is what gold does as well, FWIW).

With this patch we keep track of the fact that . is a position in the
file and therefore not absolute. This allow us to compute relative
relocations that involve symbol that are defined in linker scripts
with '.'.
This fixes https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=30406
There is still more work to track absoluteness over the various
expressions, but this should unblock linking the EFI bootloader.
llvm-svn: 285641
We parse linker scripts very early, but whether an expression is
absolute or not can depend on a symbol defined in a .o. Given that, we
have to delay the computation of IsAbsolute. We can do that by storing
an AST when parsing or by also making IsAbsolute a function like we do
for the expression value. This patch implements the second option.
llvm-svn: 285628
And as a token of the new feature, make ALIGNOF always absolute.
This is a step in making it possible to have non absolute symbols out
of output sections.
llvm-svn: 285608
This fixes pr30803 by not relaxing that particular access. We could
also let adjustRelaxExpr know that the target is absolute so that it
uses R_RELAX_GOT_PC_NOPIC, but it is not clear if it is worth it.

When static linking in ARM (like Mips) __tls_get_addr is defined by
the library so we should not define it as a synthetic.
We also need to add __exidx_start and __exidx_end for the .ARM.exidx
section as the static libc library startup code is expecting them to
be defined by the default linker script for static linking on ARM.

As the state of lld gets more complicated, shutting down gets more
expensive.
In a normal lld run we can just call _exit immediately after renaming
the temporary output file. We still want the ability to run a full
shutdown since that is useful for detecting memory leaks.
This patch adds a --full-shutdown flag and changes lit to use it.

We were previously using the (static) addSynthetic function to create
*_start/*_end symbols. This function was doing almost the same thing as
addOptionalSynthetic, except that it would also create the symbol in the
case where it is unreferenced. Because the symbol has hidden visibility,
creating it in that case would have no effect other than adding another
entry to the static symbol table. Remove addSynthetic and change callers to
use addOptionalSynthetic instead.

When doing a relocatable link the .ARM.exidx sections with the
SHF_LINK_ORDER flag set need to set the sh_link field to the executable
section they describe. We find the appropriate OutputSection by
following the sh_link field of the .ARM.exidx InputSections.
The getOutputSectionName() function rules make sure that when there are
multiple .ARM.exidx InputSections in an OutputSection they all have the
same sh_link field.

Some MIPS relocations used to access GOT entries are able to manipulate
16-bit index. The other ones like R_MIPS_CALL_HI16/LO16 can handle
32-bit indexes. 16-bit relocations are generated by default. The 32-bit
relocations are generated by -mxgot flag passed to compiler. Usually
these relocation are not mixed in the same code but files like crt*.o
contain 16-bit relocations so even if all "user's" code compiled with
-mxgot flag a few 16-bit relocations might come to the linking phase.
Now LLD does not differentiate local GOT entries accessed via a 16-bit
and 32-bit indexes. That might lead to relocation's overflow if 16-bit
entries are allocated to far from the beginning of the GOT.
The patch introduces new "part" of MIPS GOT dedicated to the local GOT
entries accessed by 32-bit relocations. That allows to put local GOT
entries accessed via a 16-bit index first and escape relocation's overflow.

Summary:
The rules for quoting the command line that a subprocess receives are
user space conventions implemented by the C runtime. Python's quoting
rules are implemented here:
c30098c8c6/Lib/subprocess.py (L725)
The result is that the final command line C string computed by Python is
'echo \"'. Mingw doesn't appear to interpret that backslash as escaping
the quote because it is not already inside a quoted region. As a result,
our echo command prints a single backslash instead of a quote.
The whole issue can be sidestepped by adding a space a forcing Python to
put the argument to echo in double quotes.
