This includes a fix to mark copy reloc aliases as used.
Original message:
[ELF] Do not keep symbols if they referenced only from discarded sections.
This patch also ensures that in case of "--as-needed" is used,
DT_NEEDED entries are not created if they are required only by
these eliminated symbols.

Summary:
The bug triggers when the following conditions are met:
- A thunk is created in a given input section S
- A linker script is specified
- There is at least one matcher in the linker script .text section output
that does not match any of the sections in the input files, before the matcher
that matches section S.
The issue was found when linking the FreeBSD kernel for MIPS when built
with -fPIC. Patch by Alfredo Mazzinghi.

This is PR34826.
Currently LLD is unable to report line number when reporting
duplicate declaration of some variable.
That happens because for extracting line information we always use
.debug_line section content which describes mapping from machine
instructions to source file locations, what does not help for
variables as does not describe them.
In this patch I am taking the approproate information about
variables locations from the .debug_info section.

SymbolBody and Symbol were separated classes due to a historical reason.
Symbol used to be a pointer to a SymbolBody, and the relationship
between Symbol and SymbolBody was n:1.
r2681780 changed that. Since that patch, SymbolBody and Symbol are
allocated next to each other to improve memory locality, and they have
1:1 relationship now. So, the separation of Symbol and SymbolBody no
longer makes sense.
This patch merges them into one class. In order to avoid updating too
many places, I chose SymbolBody as a unified name. I'll rename it Symbol
in a follow-up patch.

This change allows Thunks to be added on multiple passes. To do this we must
merge only the thunks added in each pass, and deal with thunks that have
drifted out of range of their callers.
A thunk may end out of range of its caller if enough thunks are added in
between the caller and the thunk. To handle this we create another thunk.

Relocations.cpp is still head-scratching. Even though relocations are
processed by multiple functions, the functions are effectively one
gigantic function with lots of local and global shared states, because
they are really tightly coupled. It is really hard to predict whether
a change to a function will or will not affect other functions behaviors.
What I'm trying to do is to rewrite the code without breaking the
existing tests so that the code can tolerate a more aggressive
refactoring (i.e. splitting it to logically separated steps).
llvm-svn: 315673
This is not a mechanical transformation. Even though I believe this
patch is correct, I'm not 100% sure if lld with this patch behaves
exactly the same way as before on all edge cases. At least all tests

I'm submitting this patch because it took almost a day to understand
this function, and I don't want to lose it.

This patch merges computeAddend and computeMipsAddend.
Getting an addend for a relocation is usually pretty easy:
it is either in the r_addend field (if RELA) or in a target
section (if REL).
However, MIPS has many special rules that are different from
other ELF ABIs. I don't think there were technical reasons to
be different, but the reality is that they are different.
It is unfortunate that we had to pass many parameters to
computeAddend, but it seems unavoidable because of MIPS.
llvm-svn: 315617
This is an attempt to make lld's relocation handler code understandable.
Since I don't fully understand what exactly this function does for all
possible cases (I believe no one can), I'm not really sure if this patch
is NFC, but at least no functionality change intended. All tests still pass.

A section was passed to getRelExpr just to create an error message.
But if there's an invalid relocation, we would eventually report it
in relocateOne. So we don't have to pass a section to getRelExpr.
llvm-svn: 315552
We were using uint32_t as the type of relocation kind. It has a
readability issue because what Type really means in `uint32_t Type`
is not obvious. It could be a section type, a symbol type or a
relocation type.
Since we do not do any arithemetic operations on relocation types
(e.g. adding one to R_X86_64_PC32 doesn't make sense), it would be
more natural if they are represented as enums. Unfortunately, that
is not doable because relocation type definitions are spread into
multiple header files.
So I decided to use typedef. This still should be better than the
plain uint32_t because the intended type is now obvious.
llvm-svn: 315525
"Commands" was ambiguous because in the linker script, everything is
a command. We used to handle only SECTIONS commands, and at the time,
it might make sense to call them the commands, but it is no longer
the case. We handle not only SECTIONS but also MEMORY, PHDRS, VERSION,
etc., and they are all commands.
llvm-svn: 315409
This fixes pr34301.
As the bug points out, we want to keep some relocations with undefined
weak symbols. This means that we cannot always claim that these
symbols are not preemptible as we do now.
Unfortunately, we cannot also just always claim that they are
preemptible. Doing so would, for example, cause us to try to create a
plt entry when we don't even have a dynamic symbol table.
What almost works is to say that weak undefined symbols are
preemptible if and only if we have a dynamic symbol table. Almost
because we don't want to fail the build trying to create a copy
relocation to a weak undefined.

The patch implements initial support of microMIPS code linking:
- Handle microMIPS specific relocations.
- Emit both R1-R5 and R6 microMIPS PLT records.
For now linking mixed set of regular and microMIPS object files is not
supported. Also the patch does not handle (setup and clear) the
least-significant bit of an address which is utilized as the ISA mode
bit and allows to make jump between regular and microMIPS code without
any thunks.

Reviewing another change I noticed that we use "getSymbols" to mean
different things in different files. Depending on the file it can
return

With this change it always returns an ArrayRef<SymbolBody*>. The other
functions are renamed getELFsyms() and getSymbolNames().
Note that we cannot return ArrayRef<Symbol*> instead of
ArreyRef<SymbolBody*> because local symbols have a SymbolBody but not
a Symbol.

This is a bit of a hack, but it is *so* convenient.

On ARM the interworking thunks are only produced for branch instructions
that can't be changed into a blx instruction so only Thumb callers would

extension thunks branch and link instructions may need a Thunk. These
instructions can be rewritten as a blx and can use either ARM or Thumb
thunks.

an existing Thunk is compatible before reusing it.

On many architectures gcc and clang will recognize _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ - .
and produce a relocation that can be processed without needing to know the

gcc produces R_ARM_BASE_PREL but clang produces the more general
R_ARM_REL32 to _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. To evaluate this relocation
correctly _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ must be defined to be the either the base of
the GOT or end of the GOT dependent on architecture..
If/when llvm-mc is changed to recognize _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ - . this
change will not be necessary for new objects. However there may still be
old objects and versions of clang.

Before InputSectionBase had an OutputSection pointer, but that was not
always valid. For example, if it was a merge section one actually had
to look at MergeSec->OutSec.
This was brittle and caused bugs like the one fixed by r304260.
We now have a single Parent pointer that points to an OutputSection
for InputSection, but to a SyntheticSection for merge sections and
.eh_frame. This makes it impossible to accidentally access an invalid
OutSec.

GetSection is a template because write calls relocate.
relocate has two parts. The non alloc code really has to be a
template, as it is looking a raw input file data.
The alloc part is only a template because of getSize.
This patch folds the value of getSize early, detemplates
getRelocTargetVA and splits relocate into a templated non alloc case
and a regular function for the alloc case. This has the nice advantage
of making sure we collect all the information we need for relocations
before getting to InputSection::relocateNonAlloc.
Since we know got is alloc, it can just call the function directly and
avoid the template.

This feels a bit hackish, but I think it is still an improvement.
The way a tls address is computed in the various architectures is not
that different. For example, for local dynamic we need the base of the

(R_ABS).
Given the similarity, we can just use the expressions instead of

Previously we silently produced broken output for R_386_GOT32X/R_386_GOT32
relocations if they were used to compute the address of the symbol’s global
offset table entry without base register when position-independent code is disabled.
Situation happened because of recent ABI changes. Released ABI mentions that
R_386_GOT32X can be calculated in a two different ways (so we did not follow ABI here
before this patch), but draft ABI also mentions R_386_GOT32 relocation here.
We should use the same calculations for both relocations.
Problem is that we always calculated them as G + A - GOT (offset from end of GOT),
but for case when PIC is disabled, according to i386 ABI calculation should be G + A,
what should produce just an address in GOT finally.

When the target of the TlsOffsetRel is non-preemptible we can write the
offset directly into the GOT without needing a dynamic relocation. This
is optional for dynamically linked executables but is required for static

non-0 offsets so that if we miss out the offset the test won't spuriously
pass by virtue of the default value being 0.

scanRelocs() does a lot of things. It fills InputSection's Relocations vector,
making a decision whether a TLS relocation should be relaxed or not,
and making a decision whether a GOT/PLT slot needs to be created or not.
They don't actually have to be done in a single loop. I want to separate
them so that some of them can be run concurently. As a first step, this
patch moves PLT/GOT slot assignment to beginning of the loop, so that
they just fall through to the next statements. This should make it clear
that that code doesn't affect other parts of the loop.
