This is slightly simpler to read IMHO. Now if a symbol has a position
in the file, it is Defined.
The main motivation is that with this a SharedSymbol doesn't need a
section, which reduces the size of SymbolUnion.
With this the peak allocation when linking chromium goes from 568.1 to
564.2 MB.

It returns a different Expr only in the case of creating a function
symbol pointing to its plt entry. We can just add a call to
addPltEntry to avoid that and return void.
With this patch further simplifications of how we handle copy
relocations are possible.

As was mentioned in comments for D45158,
isPicRel's name does not make much sense,
because what this method does is checks if
we need to create the dynamic relocation or not.
Instead of renaming it to something different,
we can 'isPicRel' completely.
We can reuse the getDynRel method.
They are logically very close, getDynRel can just return
R_*_NONE in case no dynamic relocation should be produced
and that would simplify things and avoid functionality
correlation/duplication with 'isPicRel'.
The patch does this change.

Now that we have the ability to create short thunks, it is beneficial
for thunk sections to be surrounded by ThunkSectionSpacing bytes
of code on both sides in order to increase the likelihood that the
distance from the thunk to the target will be sufficiently small to
allow for the creation of a short thunk. This is currently the case
for most thunks that we create, except for the last one, which could,
depending on the size of the output section, potentially appear near
the end and therefore have a relatively small amount of code after it.
This patch moves the last thunk section to ThunkSectionSpacing bytes
before the end of the output section, as long as the section is larger
than 2*ThunkSectionSpacing bytes. It reduces the size of Chromium
for Android's .text section by 32KB.

This "fixes" PR36678 by just producing an error when we find a case
where we would produce an plt entry that used ebx but ebx would not be
set.
llvm-svn: 327542
This avoids creating multiple thunks for symbols with aliases or which
belong to ICF'd sections. This patch reduces the size of Chromium for
Android by 260KB (0.8% of .text).

Now that we have R_ADDEND, UseSymVA was redundant. We only want to
write the symbol virtual address when using an expression other than
R_ADDEND.
llvm-svn: 325360
Summary:
This follows up on r321889 where writing of Elf_Rel addends was partially
moved to RelocationBaseSection. This patch ensures that the addends are
always written to the output section when a input section uses RELA but the
output is REL.

Summary:
While trying to make a linker script behave the same way with lld as it did
with bfd, I discovered that lld currently doesn't diagnose overlapping
output sections. I was getting very strange runtime failures which I
tracked down to overlapping sections in the resulting binary. When linking
with ld.bfd overlapping output sections are an error unless
--noinhibit-exec is passed and I believe lld should behave the same way
here to avoid surprising crashes at runtime.
The patch also uncovered an errors in the tests: arm-thumb-interwork-thunk
was creating a binary where .got.plt was placed at an address overlapping
with .got.

Symbol had both Visibility and getVisibility() and they had different
meanings. That is just too easy to get wrong.
getVisibility() would compute the visibility of a particular symbol
(foo in bar.o), and Visibility stores the computed value we will put
in the output.
There is only one case when we want what getVisibility() provides, so
inline it.

When we have --icf=safe we should be able to define --icf=all as a
shorthand for --icf=safe --ignore-function-address-equality.
For now --ignore-function-address-equality is used only to control
access to non preemptable symbols in shared libraries.
llvm-svn: 322152
This splits relocation processing in two steps.
First, analyze what needs to be done at the relocation spot. This can
be a constant (non preemptible symbol, relative got reference, etc) or
require a dynamic relocation. At this step we also consider creating
copy relocations.
Once that is done we decide if we need a got or a plt entry.
The code is simpler IMHO. For example:
- There is a single call to isPicRel since the logic is not split
among adjustExpr and the caller.
- R_MIPS_GOTREL is simple to handle now.
- The tracking of what is preemptible or not is much simpler now.
This also fixes a regression with symbols being both in a got and copy
relocated. They had regressed in r268668 and r268149.
The other test changes are because of error messages changes or the
order of two relocations in the output.

The body of the in scanRelocs is fairly big. This moves it to its own
function.
It is not a big readability win by itself, but should help further
refactoring.
llvm-svn: 322035
This makes adjustExpr a bit simpler too IMHO.
It seems that some of the complication around relocation processing
is that we are trying to create copy relocations too early. It seems
we could handle a few simple cases first and continue.

Previously we failed to resolve them when produced executables:
"relocation R_X86_64_32 cannot be used against shared object; recompile with -fPIC"
Patch fixes it so that we resolve them to 0 for executables.
And for -shared case we still should produce the relocation.
This finishes fixing PR35720.

If a relocation cannot be implemented by the dynamic linker and the
section is rw, allow creating a plt entry to use as the function
address as if the section was ro.
This matches bfd and gold. It also matches our behavior with -z
notext.

We normally avoid "switch (Config->EKind)", but in this case I think
it is worth it.
It is only executed when there is an error and it allows detemplating
a lot of code.
llvm-svn: 321404
This is part of PR35720.
Currently LLD allows dynamic relocations against text when -z notext is given.
Though for non-PIC relocations like R_X86_64_PC32 that does not work,
we produce "relocation R_X86_64_PC32 cannot be used against shared object;"
error because they may overflow in runtime.
Solution implemented is to use PLT for them.

This reduces total allocations when linking clang fsds from 263.21MB
to 174.62MB.
This also has some very nice speed improvements on some
benchmarks. Chromium and clang fsds link 6% faster.
