When we need a copy relocation we create a synthetic SHT_NOBITS
section that contains the right amount of ZI and assign it to either
.bss or .rel.ro.bss as appropriate. This allows the dynamic relocation
to be placed on the InputSection, removing the last case where a
dynamic relocation is stored as an offset from the OutputSection. This
has the side effect that we can run assignOffsets() after scanRelocs()
without losing the additional ZI needed for the copy relocations.

Thunks are now implemented by redirecting the relocation to the
symbol S, to a symbol TS in a Thunk. The Thunk will transfer control
to S. This has the following implications:
- All the side-effects of Thunks happen within createThunks()
- Thunks are no longer stored in InputSections and Symbols no longer
need to hold a pointer to a Thunk
- The synthetic Thunk sections need to be merged into OutputSections
This implementation is almost a direct conversion of the existing
Thunks with the following exceptions:
- Mips LA25 Thunks are placed before the InputSection that defines
the symbol that needs a Thunk.
- All ARM Thunks are placed at the end of the OutputSection of the
first caller to the Thunk.
Range extension Thunks are not supported yet so it is optimistically
assumed that all Thunks can be reused.
This is a recommit of r293283 with a fixed comparison predicate as
std::merge requires a strict weak ordering.

A necessary first step towards range extension thunks is to delay
the creation of thunks until the layout of InputSections within
OutputSections has been done.
The change scans the relocations directly from InputSections rather
than looking in the ELF File the InputSection came from. This will
allow a future change to redirect the relocations to symbols defined
by Thunks rather than indirect when resolving relocations.
A side-effect of moving ThunkCreation is that the OutSecOff of
InputSections may change in an OutputSection that contains Thunks.
In well behaved programs thunks are not in OutputSections with
dynamic relocations.

When reserving copy relocation space for a shared symbol, scan the DSO's

AArch64 TLSDESC for local symbol in shared objects are implemented in a
arch specific manner where the TLSDESC dynamic relocation addend is the
symbol VM inside the TLS block. For instance, with a shared library
created from the code:
--
static __thread int32_t x1;
static __thread int64_t x2;
int32_t foo1 (int32_t x)
{
x1 += x;
return x;
}
int64_t foo2 (int64_t x)
{
x2 += x;
return x;
}
--
The dynamic relocation should be create as:
Relocations [
Section (N) .rela.dyn {
<Address1> R_AARCH64_TLSDESC - 0x0
<Address2> R_AARCH64_TLSDESC - 0x8
}
]
Where 0x0 addend in first dynamic relocation is the address of 'x1'
in TLS block and '0x8' is the address of 'x2'.
Checked against test-suite on aarch64-linux-gnu.

This change introduces new synthetic sections IpltSection, IgotPltSection
that represent the ifunc entries that would previously have been put in
the PltSection and the GotPltSection. The separation makes sure that
the R_*_IRELATIVE relocations are placed after the non R_*_IRELATIVE
relocations, which permits ifunc resolvers to know that the .got.plt
slots will be initialized prior to the resolver being called.
A secondary benefit is that for ARM we can move the IgotPltSection and its
dynamic relocations to the .got and .rel.dyn as the ARM glibc expects all
the R_*_IRELATIVE relocations to be in the .rel.dyn

In various places in LLD's hot loops, we have expressions of the form
"E == R_FOO || E == R_BAR || ..." (E is a RelExpr).
Some of these expressions are quite long, and even though they usually go just
a very small number of ways and so should be well predicted, they can still
occupy branch predictor resources harming other parts of the code, or they
won't be predicted well if they overflow branch predictor resources or if the
branches are too dense and the branch predictor can't track them all (the
compiler can in theory avoid this, at a cost in text size). And some of these
expressions are so large and executed so frequently that even when
well-predicted they probably still have a nontrivial cost.
This speedup should be pretty portable. The cost of these simple bit tests is
independent of:
- the target we are linking for
- the distribution of RelExpr's for a given link (which can depend on how the
input files were compiled)
- what compiler was used to compile LLD (it is just a simple bit test;
hopefully the compiler gets it right!)
- adding new target-dependent relocations (e.g. needsPlt doesn't pay any extra
cost checking R_PPC_PLT_OPD on x86-64 builds)
I did some rough measurements on clang-fsds and this patch gives over about 4%
speedup for a regular -O1 link, about 2.5% for -O3 --gc-sections and over 5%
for -O0. Sorry, I don't have my current machine set up for doing really
accurate measurements right now.
This also is just a bit cleaner. Thanks for Joerg for suggesting for
this approach.

The module index dynamic relocation R_ARM_DTPMOD32 is always 1 for an
executable. When static linking and when we know that we are not a shared
object we can resolve the module index relocation statically.
The logic in handleNoRelaxTlsRelocation remains the same for Mips as it
has its own custom GOT writing code. For ARM we add the module index
relocation to the GOT when it can be resolved statically.
In addition the type of the RelExpr for the static resolution of TlsGotRel

Relocations are the last thing that we wore storing a raw section

With this patch we parse it only once and store a pointer to the

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

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.

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.

We will need to do something like this to support range extension
thunks since that process is iterative.
Doing this also has the advantage that when doing the regular

just store that. This reduces the number of times we have to run
getOffset and I think will allow a more specialized .eh_frame
representation.
By itself this is already a performance win.

The patch adds one more partition to the MIPS GOT. This time it is for
TLS related GOT entries. Such entries are located after 'local' and 'global'
ones. We cannot get a final offset for these entries at the time of
creation because we do not know size of 'local' and 'global' partitions.
So we have to adjust the offset later using `getMipsTlsOffset()` method.
All MIPS TLS relocations which need GOT entries operates MIPS style GOT
offset - 'offset from the GOT's beginning' - MipsGPOffset constant. That
is why I add new types of relocation expressions.
One more difference from othe ABIs is that the MIPS ABI does not support
any TLS relocation relaxations. I decided to make a separate function
`handleMipsTlsRelocation` and put MIPS TLS relocation handling code
there. It is similar to `handleTlsRelocation` routine and duplicates its
code. But it allows to make the code cleaner and prevent pollution of
the `handleTlsRelocation` by MIPS 'if' statements.

Peter Smith found while trying to support thunk creation for ARM that
LLD sometimes creates broken thunks for MIPS. The cause of the bug is
that we assign file offsets to input sections too early. We need to

This patch separates the pass to assign file offsets from thunk
creation pass. This effectively reverts r265673.

There are two motivations for this patch. The first one is a preparation
for support MIPS TLS relocations. It might sound like a joke but for GOT
entries related to TLS relocations MIPS ABI uses almost regular approach
with creation of dynamic relocations for each GOT enty etc. But we need
to separate these 'regular' TLS related entries from MIPS specific local
and global parts of GOT. ABI declare simple solution - all TLS related
entries allocated at the end of GOT after local/global parts. The second
motivation it to support GOT relocations for non-preemptible symbols
with addends. If we have more than one GOT relocations against symbol S
with different addends we need to create GOT entries for each unique
Symbol/Addend pairs.
So we store all MIPS GOT entries in separate containers. For non-preemptible
symbols we have to maintain two data structures. The first one is MipsLocal
vector. Each entry corresponds to the GOT entry from the 'local' part
of the GOT contains the symbol's address plus addend. The second one
is MipsLocalMap. It is a map from Symbol/Addend pair to the GOT index.

This is mostly extracted from http://reviews.llvm.org/D18960.
The general idea for tlsdesc is that the two GD got entries are used
for a function pointer and its argument. The dynamic linker sets
both. In the non-dlopen case the dynamic linker sets the function to
the identity and the argument to the offset in the tls block.
All that the static linker has to do in the non-dlopen case is
relocate the code to point to the got entries and create a dynamic
relocation.
The dlopen case is more complicated, but can be implemented in another patch.

Patch implements next relaxation from latest ABI:
"Convert memory operand of test and binop into immediate operand, where binop is one of adc, add, and, cmp, or,
sbb, sub, xor instructions, when position-independent code is disabled."
It is described in System V Application Binary Interface AMD64 Architecture Processor
Supplement Draft Version 0.99.8 (https://github.com/hjl-tools/x86-psABI/wiki/x86-64-psABI-r249.pdf,
B.2 "B.2 Optimize GOTPCRELX Relocations").

In case of MIPS, GP-relative relocations always resolve to a definition
in a regular input file, ignoring the one-definition rule. Such
relocations are used to setup GP relative offsets in a function's
prologue. So we, for example, should not attempt to create a dynamic
relocation even if the target symbol is preemptible.
Fixes bug 27880.

System V Application Binary Interface AMD64 Architecture Processor Supplement Draft Version 0.99.8
(https://github.com/hjl-tools/x86-psABI/wiki/x86-64-psABI-r249.pdf, B.2 "B.2 Optimize GOTPCRELX Relocations")
introduces possible relaxations for R_X86_64_GOTPCRELX and R_X86_64_REX_GOTPCRELX.
That patch implements the next relaxation:
mov foo@GOTPCREL(%rip), %reg => lea foo(%rip), %reg
and also opens door for implementing all other ones.
Implementation was suggested by Rafael Ávila de Espíndola with few additions and testcases by myself.

scanReloc and the functions on which scanReloc depends is in total
more than 600 lines of code. Since scanReloc does not depend on Writer,
it is better to move it into a separate file.
