[LLD] Remove global state in lld/COFF
This patch removes globals from the lldCOFF library, by moving globals
into a context class (COFFLinkingContext) and passing it around wherever
it's needed.

In PGO, a C++ external linkage function `foo` has a private counter
`__profc_foo` and a private `__profd_foo` in a `comdat nodeduplicate`.
A `__attribute__((weak))` function `foo` has a weak hidden counter `__profc_foo`
and a private `__profd_foo` in a `comdat nodeduplicate`.
In `ld.lld a.o b.o`, say a.o defines an external linkage `foo` and b.o
defines a weak `foo`. Currently we treat `comdat nodeduplicate` as `comdat any`,
ld.lld will incorrectly consider `b.o:__profc_foo` non-prevailing. In the worst
case when `b.o:__profd_foo` is retained and `b.o:__profc_foo` isn't, there will
be dangling reference causing an `undefined hidden symbol` error.
Add SelectionKind to `Comdat` in IRSymtab and let linkers ignore nodeduplicate comdat.

If linking directly against a DLL without an import library, the
DLL export symbols might not contain stdcall decorations.
If we have an undefined symbol with decoration, and we happen to have
a matching undecorated symbol (which either is lazy and can be loaded,
or already defined), then alias it against that instead.
This matches what's done in reverse, when we have a def file
declaring to export a symbol without decoration, but we only have
a defined decorated symbol. In that case we do a fuzzy match
(SymbolTable::findMangle). This case is more straightforward; if we
have a decorated undefined symbol, just strip the decoration and look
for the corresponding undecorated symbol name.
Add warnings and options for either silencing the warning or disabling
the whole feature, corresponding to how ld.bfd does it.
(This feature works for any symbol decoration mismatch, not only when
linking against a DLL directly; ld.bfd also tolerates it anywhere,
and also fixes up mismatches in the other direction, like
SymbolTable::findMangle, for any symbol, not only exports. But in
practice, at least for lld, it would primarily end up used for linking
against DLLs.)

GNU ld.bfd supports linking directly against DLLs without using an
import library, and some projects have picked up on this habit.
(There's no one single unsurmountable issue with using import
libraries, but this is a regularly surfacing missing feature.)
As long as one is linking by name (instead of by ordinal), the DLL
export table contains most of the information needed. (One can
inspect what section a symbol points at, to see if it's a function
or data symbol. The practical implementation of this loops over all
sections for each symbol, but as long as they're not very many, that
should hopefully be tolerable performance wise.)
One exception where the information in the DLL isn't entirely enough
is on i386 with stdcall functions; depending on how they're done,
the exported function name can be a plain undecorated name, while
the import library would contain the full decorated symbol name. This
issue is addressed separately in a different patch.
This is implemented mimicing the structure of a regular import library,
with one InputFile corresponding to the static archive that just adds
lazy symbols, which then are fetched when they are needed. When such
a symbol is fetched, we synthesize a coff_import_header structure
in memory and create a regular ImportFile out of it.
The implementation could be even smaller by just creating ImportFiles
for every symbol available immediately, but that would have the
drawback of actually ending up importing all symbols unless running
with GC enabled (and mingw mode defaults to having it disabled for
historical reasons).

Commit 728cc0075e made comdat symbols
from LTO objects be treated as any regular comdat symbol. This works
great for symbols that actually are IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_ANY, but
if the symbols have a less trivial selection type that require comparing
either the section chunk size or contents, we can't check that before
actually doing the LTO compilation.
Therefore bring back one aspect of handling from before; that comdat
resolution with a leader from an LTO symbol is essentially skipped,
like it was before 728cc0075e.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D104605
Make sure that comdat symbols also have a non-null dummy
SectionChunk associated.
This requires moving around an existing FIXME regarding comdats in
LTO.

This patch adds support for creating Guard Address-Taken IAT Entry Tables (.giats$y sections) in object files, matching the behavior of MSVC. These contain lists of address-taken imported functions, which are used by the linker to create the final GIATS table.
Additionally, if any DLLs are delay-loaded, the linker must look through the .giats tables and add the respective load thunks of address-taken imports to the GFIDS table, as these are also valid call targets.

Extending the lifetime of these type index mappings does increase memory
usage (+2% in my case), but it decouples type merging from symbol
merging. This is a pre-requisite for two changes that I have in mind:
- parallel type merging: speeds up slow type merging
- defered symbol merging: avoid heap allocating (relocating) all symbols
This eliminates CVIndexMap and moves its data into TpiSource. The maps
are also split into a SmallVector and ArrayRef component, so that the
ipiMap can alias the tpiMap for /Z7 object files, and so that both maps
can simply alias the PDB type server maps for /Zi files.
Splitting TypeServerSource establishes that all input types to be merged
can be identified with two 32-bit indices:
- The index of the TpiSource object
- The type index of the record
This is useful, because this information can be stored in a single
64-bit atomic word to enable concurrent hashtable insertion.
One last change is that now all object files with debugChunks get a
TpiSource, even if they have no type info. This avoids some null checks
and special cases.

Binutils generated sections seem to be padded to a multiple of 16 bytes,
but the aux section definition contains the original, unpadded section
length.
The size check used for IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_SAME_SIZE previously
only checked the size of the section itself. When checking the
currently processed object file against the previously chosen
comdat section, we easily have access to the aux section definition
of the currently processed section, but we have to iterate over the
symbols of the previously selected object file to find the section
definition of the previously picked section. (We don't want to
inflate SectionChunk to carry more data, for something that is only
needed in corner cases.) Only do this when the mingw flag is set.
This fixes statically linking clang-built C++ object files against
libstdc++ built with GCC, if the object files contain e.g. typeinfo.

For a weak symbol func in a comdat, the actual leader symbol ends up
named like .weak.func.default*. Likewise, for stdcall on i386, the symbol
may be named _func@4, while the section suffix only is "func", which the
previous implementation didn't handle.
This fixes unwinding through weak functions when using
-ffunction-sections in mingw environments.

First, do not reserve numSections in the Chunks array. In cases where
there are many non-prevailing sections, this will overallocate memory
which will not be used.
Second, free the memory for sparseChunks after initializeSymbols. After
that, it is never used.
This saves 50MB of 627MB for my use case without affecting performance.
This paves the way to doing more things in parallel, and allows us to
order type sources in dependency order. PDBs and PCH objects have to be
loaded before object files which use them.
This is a rebase of the unapplied remaining changes in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D59226. I found it very challenging to rebase
this across the LLD variable name style change. I recall there was a
tool for that, but I didn't take the time to use it.

This is how it should've been and brings it more in line with
std::string_view. There should be no functional change here.
This is mostly mechanical from a custom clang-tidy check, with a lot of

This doesn't actually modify StringRef yet, I'll do that in a follow-up.
When annotating a symbol with __declspec(selectany), Clang assigns it
comdat 2 while GCC assigns it comdat 3. This patch enables two object

As we now have code that parses the dwarf info for variable locations,

This fixes the second part of PR42407.
For files with dwarf debug info, it manually loads and iterates
.debug_info to find the declared location of variables, to allow
reporting them. (This matches the corresponding code in the ELF
linker.)
For functions, it uses the existing getFileLineDwarf which uses
LLVMSymbolizer for translating addresses to file lines.
In object files with codeview debug info, only the source location
of duplicate functions is printed. (And even there, only for the
first input file. The getFileLineCodeView function requires the
object file to be fully loaded and initialized to properly resolve
source locations, but duplicate symbols are reported at a stage when
the second object file isn't fully loaded yet.)

This is a re-land of r370487 with a fix for the use-after-free bug
that rev contained.
This implements -start-lib and -end-lib flags for lld-link, analogous
to the similarly named options in ld.lld. Object files after
-start-lib are included in the link only when needed to resolve
undefined symbols. The -end-lib flag goes back to the normal behavior
of always including object files in the link. This mimics the
semantics of static libraries, but without needing to actually create
the archive file.

Extend WindowsResourceParser to support using a ResourceSectionRef for
loading resources from an object file.
Only allow merging resource object files in mingw mode; keep the
existing error on multiple resource objects in link mode.
If there only is one resource object file and no .res resources,
don't parse and recreate the .rsrc section, but just link it in without
inspecting it. This allows users to produce any .rsrc section (outside
of what the parser supports), just like before. (I don't have a specific
need for this, but it reduces the risk of this new feature.)
Separate out the .rsrc section chunks in InputFiles.cpp, and only include
them in the list of section chunks to link if we've determined that there
only was one single resource object. (We need to keep other chunks from
those object files, as they can legitimately contain other sections as
well, in addition to .rsrc section chunks.)

This ports r366573 from COFF to ELF.
There are now to toString(Archive::Symbol), one doing MSVC demangling
in COFF and one doing Itanium demangling in ELF, so rename these two
to toCOFFString() and to toELFString() to not get a duplicate symbol.
Nothing ever passes a raw Archive::Symbol to CHECK(), so these not
being part of the normal toString() machinery seems ok.
There are two code paths in the ELF linker that emits this type of
diagnostic:
1. The "normal" one in InputFiles.cpp. This is covered by the tweaked test.
2. An additional one that's only used for libcalls if there's at least
one bitcode in the link, and if the libcall symbol is lazy, and
lazily loaded from an archive (i.e. not from a lazy .o file).
(This code path was added in r339301.) Since all libcall names so far
are C symbols and never mangled, the change there is not observable
and hence not covered by tests.

Summary:
Adds the following two options to lld-link:
-thinlto-prefix-replace: allows replacing a prefix in paths generated
for ThinLTO. This can be used to ensure index files and native object
files are stored in unique directories, allowing multiple distributed
ThinLTO links to proceed concurrently.
-thinlto-object-suffix-replace: allows replacing a suffix in object
file paths involved in ThinLTO. This allows minimized index files to
be used for the thin link while storing the paths to the full bitcode
files for subsequent steps (code generation and final linking).
