Some elf producers (dtrace) put this flag in relocation sections and
some (MC) don't. If we don't ignore the flag we end up with multiple
relocation sections poiting to the same section, which we don't
support.

A program or object file using R_386_8, R_386_16, R_386_PC16 or R_386_PC8
relocations is not conformant to latest ABI. The R_386_16, and R_386_8
relocations truncate the computed value to 16 - bits and 8 - bits
respectively. R_386_PC16 and R_386_16 are used by some
applications, for example by FreeBSD loaders.
Previously we did not take addend in account for these relocation,
counting it as 0, what is wrong and was a reason of hangs.
This patch needed for example for FreeBSD pmbr (protective mbr).

Binary output feature is a bit confuzing. bfd and gold output differs a lot sometimes,
though it is important for FreeBSD mbr loaders.
Patch change the way how we compute file offsets for binary output.
This fixes PR31196.
Previously offsets were calculated basing on offsets and addresses of sections
from the same loads:
if (Sec == First)
return alignTo(Off, Target->MaxPageSize, Sec->Addr);
return First->Offset + Sec->Addr - First->Addr;
bfd assigns offsets for each section to VA - MinVA:
https://github.com/redox-os/binutils-gdb/blob/master/bfd/binary.c#L27https://github.com/redox-os/binutils-gdb/blob/master/bfd/binary.c#L255
(LMA == VA usually)
This patch for now just stops creating phdrs for binary output.
An effect from this that no any additional calculation for offset is performed:
uintX_t getFileAlignment(uintX_t Off, OutputSectionBase *Sec) {
OutputSectionBase *First = Sec->FirstInPtLoad;
// If the section is not in a PT_LOAD, we have no other constraint.
if (!First)
return Off; //**First is always null, condition always happens**
That is enough now with combination of another patch to generate output
that is similar to what bfd produce for mbr loader.

--omagic is an option to create old-fashioned executables in which
.text segments are writable. Today, the option is still in use to
create special-purpose programs such as boot loaders. It doesn't
make sense to create PT_GNU_RELRO for such executables.

The assertion asserted that colorable sections can never have
a reference to non-colorable sections, but that was simply wrong.
They can have references to non-colorable sections. If that's the
case, referenced sections must be the same in terms of pointer
comparison.

It looks like the way dtrace works is
* The user creates .o files that reference magical symbol names.
* dtrace reads those files, collecs the info it needs and changes the
relocation to R_X86_64_NONE expecting the linker to ignore them.

Associative sections are sections that need to be linked if their associated
sections are linked. Associative sections are used to append auxiliary data
such as debug info.
Previously, we compared all associative sections when comparing two comdat
sections. Because usually assocative sections are not mergeable sections,
we missed a lot of mergeable sections. MSVC linker doesn't seem to check
the identity of associative sections.
This patch makes LLD to ignore associative sections when doing ICF.
llvm-svn: 288483
This is a fairly reasonable bfd extension since there is one obvious value.
dtrace depends on this feature as it creates multiple absolute
symbols with the same value.

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
should be R_TLS and not R_ABS as we need to include the size of
the thread control block in the calculation.
Addresses the TLS part of PR30218.

The MipsGotSection::getPageEntryOffset calculates index of GOT entry
with a "page" address. Previously this method changes the state
of MipsGotSection because it modifies PageIndexMap field. That leads
to the unpredictable results if getPageEntryOffset called from multiple threads.
The patch makes getPageEntryOffset constant. To do so it calculates GOT
entry index but does not update PageIndexMap field. Later in the
MipsGotSection::writeTo method linker calculates "page" addresses and
writes them to the output.
llvm-svn: 288129
If output section which referenced by R_MIPS_GOT_PAGE or R_MIPS_GOT16
relocations is small (less that 0x10000 bytes) and occupies two adjacent
0xffff-bytes pages, current formula gives incorrect number of required "page"
GOT entries. The problem is that in time of calculation we do not know
the section address and so we cannot calculate number of 0xffff-bytes
pages exactly.
This patch fix the formula. Now it gives a correct number of pages in
the worst case when "small" section intersects 0xffff-bytes page
boundary. From the other side, sometimes it adds one more redundant GOT
entry for each output section. But usually number of output sections
referenced by GOT relocations is small.

Unfortunatelly PT_ARM_EXIDX is special. There is no way to create it
from linker scripts, so we have to create it even if PHDRS is used.
This matches bfd and is required for the lld output to survive bfd's strip.
llvm-svn: 288012
Unfortunatelly some scripts look like
kernphys = ...
. = ....
and the expectation in that every orphan section is after the
assignment.

This is an horrible special case, but seems to match bfd's behaviour
and is important for avoiding placing an orphan section before the
expected start of the file.

The .ARM.exidx table has an entry for each function with the first entry
giving the start address of the function, the table is sorted in ascending
order of function address. Given a PC value, the unwinder will search the
table for the entry that contains the PC value.
If the table entry happens to be the last, the range of the addresses that
the final unwinding table describes will extend to the end of the address
space. To prevent an incorrect address outside the address range of the
program matching the last entry we follow ld.bfd's example and add a
sentinel EXIDX_CANTUNWIND entry at the end of the table. This gives the
final real table entry an upper bound.
In addition the llvm libunwind unwinder currently depends on the presence
of a sentinel entry (PR31091).

Previously, if a symbol specified by -e or ENTRY() is not found,
we didn't set entry point address. That is incompatible with GNU
because GNU linkers set the first address of .text to entry.
This patch implement that behavior.

Offset between beginning of a .got section and _gp symbols used in MIPS
GOT relocations calculations. Usually the expression looks like
VA + Offset - GP, where VA is the .got section address, Offset - offset
of the GOT entry, GP - offset between .got and _gp. Also there two "magic"
symbols _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp which hold the offset mentioned above.
These symbols might be referenced by MIPS relocations.
Now the linker always defines _gp symbol and uses hardcoded value for
its initialization. So offset between .got and _gp is 0x7ff0. The _gp_disp
and __gnu_local_gp defined if required and initialized by 0x7ff0.
In fact that is not correct because _gp symbol might be defined by a linker
script and holds arbitrary value. In that case we need to use this value
in relocation calculation and initialize _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp
properly.
The patch fixes the problem and completes fixing the bug #30311.

When LLD prints out errors for relocations, it tends to print out
extremely large number of errors (like millions) because it would
print out one error per relocation.
This patch makes LLD bail out if it prints out more than 20 errors.
You can configure the limitation using -error-limit argument.
-error-limit=0 means no limit.
I chose the flag name because Clang has the same feature as -ferror-limit.
"f" doesn't make sense to us, so I omitted it.
