When LLD do ICF for 2 identical sections it leaves 2 duplicate entries in .eh_frame

As a result excessive entries in .eh_frame and excessive dummy data in .eh_frame_header
emited to output. Patch fixes that. This is PR34518.

Summary:
The COFF linker and the ELF linker have long had similar but separate
Error.h and Error.cpp files to implement error handling. This change
introduces new error handling code in Common/ErrorHandler.h, changes the
COFF and ELF linkers to use it, and removes the old, separate
implementations.

"/DISCARD/" is a special section name in the linker script to discard
input sections. Previously, we handled it as if it were a real section,
so an input section can be assigned but dead. However, allowing sections
to be
- assigned and alive (will be emitted),
- not assigned and dead (removed), or
- assigned but dead (???)
feels logically wrong and practically error-prone. This patch removes

We used to have a map from section piece offsets to section pieces
as a cache for binary search. But I found that the map took quite a
large amount of memory and didn't make linking faster. So, in this
patch, I removed the map.
This patch saves 566 MiB of RAM (2.019 GiB -> 1.453 GiB) when linking
clang with debug info, and the link time is 4% faster in that test case.
Thanks for Sean Silva for pointing this out.
llvm-svn: 316305
By assuming that mergeable input sections are smaller than 4 GiB,
lld's memory usage when linking clang with debug info drops from
2.788 GiB to 2.019 GiB (measured by valgrind, and that does not include
memory space for mmap'ed files). I think that's a reasonable assumption
given such a large RAM savings, so this patch.
According to valgrind, gold needs 3.54 GiB of RAM to do the same thing.
NB: This patch does not introduce a limitation on the size of
output sections. You can still create sections larger than 4 GiB.

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).

This is not a mechanical transformation. Even though I believe this

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

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.

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.

This is PR34546.
Currently LLD creates output sections even if it has no input sections,
but its command contains an assignment.

That does not work sometimes. For example if we have following script:
.ARM.exidx : { *(.ARM.exidx*) }
.foo : { _foo = 0; } }
Then first section has SHF_LINK_ORDER flag. But section foo should not.
That was a reason of crash in OutputSection::finalize(). LLD tried to calculate
Link value, calling front() on empty input sections list.
We should only keep access flags and omit all others when creating such sections.

"Commands" was ambiguous because in the linker script, everything is
a command. We used to handle only SECTIONS commands, and at the time,

ScriptConfiguration was a class to contain parsed results of
linker scripts. LinkerScript is a class to interpret it.
That ditinction was needed because we haven't instantiated

we couldn't directly store the result to a LinkerScript instance.

When parsing linker scripts, LLD previously started with a '.' value of 0,
regardless of the internal default image base for the target, and regardless of
switches such as --image-base. It seems reasonable to use a different image base
value when using linker scripts and --image-base is specified, since otherwise the
switch has no effect. This change does this, as well as removing unnecessary
initialisation of Dot where it is not used.
The default image base should not be used when processing linker
scripts, because this will change the behaviour for existing linker script users,
and potentially result in invalid output being produced, as a subsequent assignment
to Dot could move the location counter backwards. Instead, we maintain the existing
behaviour of starting from 0 if --image-base is not specified.

* drop one of the __wrap_foo from the symbol table.
* if __real_foo was not undefined, add a *new* symbol with that content to

The net result is that
Anything using foo now uses __wrap_foo
Anything using __real_foo now uses foo.
Anything using __wrap_foo still does.
And the symbol table has foo, __wrap_foo and __real_foo (if defined).
Which I think is the desired behavior.

I think it is not defined what would happen to detached threads
when the main thread tries to exit. That means it was not guaranteed
that unlinkAsync correctly removes a temporary file. It was also
reported that this unlinkAsync caused a crash on Windows.
This patch adds a few new functions so that the main thread always
waits for non-main threads before exitting.
I don't actually like the new two functions, runBackground and
waitForBackgroundThreads, because it looks like it is a bit
overdesigned. After all, what we are doing with these functions
is to just remove a file.
An alternative would be to do fork(2) and make the child process
remove a file asynchronously. However, it has its own problems.
Correctly forking and reclaiming a resource using waitpid(2) is not
doable unless we know our process-wide settings (such as signal mask),
but we can't make any assumption on it when lld is embedded to other

When reporting a symbol conflict, LLD parses the debug info to report

point, so if an object file contains zlib compressed debug info, LLD

causes debug info parsing failures and can trigger assertions in the
parser (as the test case demonstrates).
Decompress debug sections when constructing the LLDDwarfObj to avoid

Currently LLD calls the `isMicroMips` routine to determine type of PLT entries
needs to be generated: regular or microMIPS. This routine checks ELF
header flags in the `FirstObj` to retrieve type of linked object files.
So if the first file does not contain microMIPS code, LLD will generate
PLT entries with regular (non-microMIPS) code only.
Ideally, if a PLT entry is referenced by microMIPS code only this entry
should contain microMIPS code, if a PLT entry is referenced by regular
code this entry should contain regular code. In a "mixed" case the PLT
entry can be either microMIPS or regular, but each "cross-mode-call" has
additional cost.
It's rather difficult to implement this ideal solution. But we can
assume that if there is an input object file with microMIPS code, the
most part of the code is microMIPS too. So we need to deduce type of PLT
entries based on finally calculated ELF header flags and do not check
only the first input object file.
This change implements this.
- The `getMipsEFlags` renamed to the `calcMipsEFlags`. The function
called from the `LinkerDriver::link`. Result is stored in
the Configuration::MipsEFlags field.
- The `isMicroMips` and `isMipsR6` routines access the `MipsEFlags`
field to get and check calculated ELF flags.
- New types of PLT records created when necessary.

Previously`InX::Got` and InX::MipsGot synthetic sections
were not removed if ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable was defined.
ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable is a symbol for _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_.
Patch moves ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable check out from removeUnusedSyntheticSections.
Also note that there was no point to check ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable for MIPS case
because InX::MipsGot::empty() always returns false for non-relocatable case, and in case
of relocatable output we do not create special symbols anyways.

We used to sort and uniquify CU vectors, but looks like CU vectors in
.gdb_index sections created by gold are not guaranteed to be sorted.
llvm-svn: 314095
We used to use std::set to uniquify CU vector elements, but as we know,
std::set is pretty slow. Fortunately we didn't actually have to use a
std::set here. This patch replaces it with std::vector.
With this patch, lld's -gdb-index overhead when linking a clang debug
build is now about 1 second (8.65 seconds without -gdb-index vs 9.60
seconds with -gdb-index). Since gold takes more than 6 seconds to create
a .gdb_index for the same output, our number isn't that bad.

Previously, we had two levels of hash table lookup. The first hash
lookup uses CachedHashStringRefs as keys and returns offsets in string
table. Then, we did the second hash table lookup to obtain GdbSymbol
pointers. But we can directly map strings to GDbSymbols.
One test file is updated in this patch because we no longer have a '\0'
byte at the start of the string pool, which was automatically inserted
by StringTableBuilder.
This patch speeds up Clang debug build (with -gdb-index) link time by
0.3 seconds.
llvm-svn: 314092
This change alone speeds up linking of Clang debug build with -gdb-index
by 1.2 seconds, from 12.5 seconds to 11.3 seconds. (Without -gdb-index,
lld takes 8.5 seconds to link the same input files.)

In order to keep track of symbol renaming, we used to have
Config->SymbolRenaming, and whether a symbol is in the map or not
affects its symbol attribute (i.e. "LinkeRedefined" bit).
This patch adds "CanInline" bit to Symbol to aggreagate symbol
information in one place and removed the member from Config since
no one except SymbolTable now uses the table.

This patch rewrites a part of GdbIndexSection to address the following
issues in the previous implementation:
- Previously, some struct declarations were in GdbIndex.h while they
were not used in GdbIndex.cpp. Such structs are moved to
SyntheticSection.h.
- The actual implementation were split into GdbIndexSection and GdbHash
section, but that separation didn't make much sense. They are now
unified as GdbIndexSection.
In addition to the above changes, this patch splits functions, rename
variables and remove redundant functions/variables to generally improve
code quality.
llvm-svn: 314084
For ARM thunks, the `movt` half of the relocation was using an incorrect
offset (it was off by 4 bytes). The original intent seems to have been
for the offset to have been relative to the current instruction, in
which case the difference of 4 makes sense. As the code stands, however,
the offset is always calculated relative to the start of the thunk
(`P`), and so the `movw` and `movt` halves should use the same offset.
This requires a very particular offset between the thunk and its target
to be triggered, and it results in the `movt` half of the relocation
being off-by-one.
The tests here use ARM-Thumb interworking thunks, since those are the
only ARM thunks currently implemented. I actually encountered this with
a range extension thunk (having Peter's patches cherry-picked locally),
but the underlying issue is identical.

This patch goes back to considering ForceAbsolute in moveAbsRight, but
only if the second argument is not already absolute.
With this we can handle "foo + ABSOLUTE(foo)" and "ABSOLUTE(foo) + foo".
llvm-svn: 313800
The idea of this function is to simplify the implementation of binary
operators like add.
A value might be absolute because of an ABSOLUTE expression, but it
still depends on the value of a section and we might not be able to
evaluate it early. We should keep such values on the LHS, so that we
can delay the evaluation.
We can now handle both "1 + ABSOLUTE(foo)" and "ABSOLUTE(foo) + 1".
llvm-svn: 313794
The previous logic was to try to detect if a linker script defined _gp
by checking !ElfSym::MipsGp->Value. That doesn't work in all cases as
the assigned value can be 0.
We now just always defined it Writer.cpp and always overwrite it
afterwards if needed.
llvm-svn: 313788
Normally to find the offset of a value in a section, we have to
compute the value since the alignment is defined on the final address.
If the alignment is trivial, we can skip the value computation. This
allows us to know the offset even in cases where we cannot yet know
the value.
llvm-svn: 313777
We try to evaluate expressions early when possible, but it is not
possible to evaluate them early if they are based on a section.
Before we would get this wrong on ABSOLUTE expressions.

Given a linker script that ends in
.some_sec { ...} ;
__stack_start = .;
. = . + 0x2000;
__stack_end = .;
lld would put orphan sections like .comment before __stack_end,
corrupting the intended meaning.
The reason we don't normally move orphans past assignments to . is to
avoid breaking
rx_sec : { *(rx_sec) }
. = ALIGN(0x1000);
/* The RW PT_LOAD starts here*/
but in this case, there is nothing after and it seems safer to put the
orphan section last. This seems to match bfd's behavior and is
convenient for writing linker scripts that care about the layout of
SHF_ALLOC sections, but not of any non SHF_ALLOC sections.

This is PR34506.
Imagine we have 2 sections the same name but different COMDAT groups:

When linking relocatable we do not merge SHT_GROUP sections. But still would merge
both input sections .foo into single output section .foo.
As a result we will have 2 different SHT_GROUPs containing the same section, what
is wrong.

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 default padding for an executable segment is the target trap

This change adds an alignment check to the relocations to make sure the
target of the relocation is aligned properly. This matches the behavior of
GNU ld. The motivation is to catch ODR violations such as a declaration of
extern int foo, but a definition of bool foo as the compiler may use

The problem with symbol assignments in implicit linker scripts is that
they can refer synthetic symbols such as _end, _etext or _edata. The
value of these symbols is currently fixed only after all linker script
commands are processed, so these assignments will be using non-final and
hence invalid value.
Rather than fixing the symbol values after all command processing have
finished, we instead change the logic to generate symbol assignment
commands that set the value of these symbols while processing the
commands, this ensures that the value is going to be correct by the time
any reference to these symbol is processed and is equivalent to defining
these symbols explicitly in linker script as BFD ld does.

Currently, LLD checks whether there's enough space for headers by
checking if headers fit below the address of the first allocated
section. However, that's always thue if the binary doesn't start

even if no other sections belong to that segment.
This is a problem in cases when linker script is being used with a
non-zero start address when we don't want to make the headers visible
by not leaving enough space for them. This pattern is common in
embedded programming but doesn't work in LLD.

Note that we cannot return ArrayRef<Symbol*> instead of

When the data segment is the last segment, it is correct to leave
it unaligned. However, when the code segment is the last segment,
it should be aligned to the page boundary to avoid loading the

With fix for undefined weak symbols in executable.
Original commit message:
This is PR32112. Previously when we linked executable with
--unresolved-symbols=ignore-all and undefined symbols, like:
_start:

we did not create relocations, though it looks in that case
we should delegate handling of such symbols to runtime linker,
hence should emit them. Patch fixes that.

-F name
--filter=name
When creating an ELF shared object, set the internal DT_FILTER field to the specified name. This tells the dynamic linker that the symbol table of the shared object which is being created should be used as a filter on the symbol table of the shared object name.
If you later link a program against this filter object, then, when you run the program, the dynamic linker will see the DT_FILTER field. The dynamic linker will resolve symbols according to the symbol table of the filter object as usual, but it will actually link to the definitions found in the shared object name. Thus the filter object can be used to select a subset of the symbols provided by the object name.

but it is stored in ScriptParser when AddressState is not available.

llvm-svn: 307107
Summary:
If the output file is a character file (e.g. /dev/null) unlinking it could
potentially destabilize the user's system. For example,
unlinking causes `lld %input -o /dev/null` to replace /dev/null with a
regular file, which will lead to unexpected behavior in other programs
that read from /dev/null, and worse than expected peformance for
programs that write to /dev/null.
This makes it possible to run the test-release.sh script as root.
Prior to this patch, the ELF/basic.s test would replace
/dev/null with a regular file, which would cause crashes in llvm
test-suite programs that piped /dev/null to stdin.
For example, if you run the test-relase.sh script as root,

This restriction has now been removed from LinkerScript::createPhdrs and instead
a check for SHF_ALLOC has been added to LinkerScript::adjustSectionsAfterSorting
