Some targets like microMIPS and ARM Thumb use the last bit of a symbol's
value to mark 'compressed' code. This patch adds new virtual function
`DynamicTable::getAtomVirtualAddress` which allows to adjust a symbol's
value before using it in a dynamic table tags like DT_INIT / DT_FINI.
llvm-svn: 223963
The LLD linker searches initializer and finalizer function names
and emits DT_INIT/DT_FINI dynamic table tags to point to these symbols.
The -init/-fini command line options override initializer ("_init") and
finalizer ("_fini") function names used by default.
Now the -init/-fini options do not affect .init_array/.fini_array
sections. The corresponding code has been removed.

Looks like if you have symbol foo in a module-definition file
(.def file), and if the actual symbol name to match that export
description is _foo@x (where x is an integer), the exported
symbol name becomes this.
- foo in the .dll file
- foo@x in the .lib file
I have checked in a few fixes recently for exported symbol name mangling.
I haven't found a simple rule that governs all the mangling rules.
There may not ever exist. For now, this is a patch to improve .lib
file compatibility.
llvm-svn: 223524
To find an AtomLayout object for the given symbol I replace the
`Layout::findAtomAddrByName` method by `Layout::findAtomLayoutByName` method.
llvm-svn: 223359
Looks like the rule of /export is more complicated than
I was thinking. If /export:foo, for example, is given, and
if the actual symbol name in an object file is _foo@<number>,
we need to export that symbol as foo, not as the mangled name.
If only /export:_foo@<number> is given, the symbol is exported
as _foo@<number>.
If both /export:foo and /export:_foo@<number> are given,
they are considered as duplicates, and the linker needs to
choose the unmangled name.
The basic idea seems that the linker needs to export a symbol
with the same name as given as /export.
We exported mangled symbols. This patch fixes that issue.
llvm-svn: 223341
/export option can be given multiple times to specify multiple
symbols to be exported. /export accepts both decorated and
undecorated name.
If you give both undecorated and decorated name of the same symbol
to /export, they are resolved to the same symbol. In this case,
we need to de-duplicate the exported names, so that we don't have
duplicated items in the export symbol table in a DLL.
We remove duplicate items from a vector. The bug was there.
Because we had pointers pointing to elements of the vector,
after an item is removed, they would point wrong elements.
This patch is to remove these pointers. Added a test for that case.
llvm-svn: 223200
The AtomSections were improperly merging sections from various input files. This
patch fixes the problem, with an updated test that was provided by Simon.
Thanks to Simon Atanasyan for catching this issue.
llvm-svn: 222982
Export table entries need to be sorted in ASCII-betical order,
so that the loader can find an entry for a function by binary search.
We sorted the entries by its mangled names. That can be different
from their exported names. As a result, LLD produces incorrect export
table, from which the loader complains that a function that actually
exists in a DLL cannot be found.
This patch fixes that issue.
llvm-svn: 222452
Mach-o does not use a simple SO_NEEDED to track dependent dylibs. Instead,
the linker copies four things from each dylib to each client: the runtime path
(aka "install name"), the build time, current version (dylib build number), and
compatibility version The build time is no longer used (it cause every rebuild
of a dylib to be different). The compatibility version is usually just 1.0
and never changes, or the dylib becomes incompatible.
This patch copies that information into the NormalizedMachO format and
propagates it to clients.
llvm-svn: 222300
When fixing up BL instructions, the linker has to compare the thumbness of the
target to decide if the instruction needs to be converted to BLX. But with B
instruction there is no BX, so the linker asserts if the target is not the
same thumbness. This assert was firing in -r mode when the target was undefined
which it interpreted as being non-thumb.
Test case change is to add a B (in both thumb and arm code) to an undefined
symbol and round trip through -r mode.
llvm-svn: 222266
The arm64 assembler almost always uses r_extern=1 relocations in which the
r_symbolnum field is the index of the symbol the relocation references. But
sometimes it will set r_extern=0 in which case the linker needs to read the
content of the reloction to determine the target.
Add test case that the r_extern=0 relocation round trips.
llvm-svn: 222198
If you have something like
__declspec(align(8192)) int foo = 1;
in your code, the compiler makes the data to be aligned to 8192-byte
boundary, and the linker align the section containing the data to 8192.
LLD always aligned the section to 4192. So, as long as alignment
requirement is smaller than 4192, it was correct, but for larger
requirements, it's wrong.
This patch fixes the issue.
llvm-svn: 222043
With --no-align-segments, there is a bug that the fileoffset may not be

MIPS ELF symbols might contain some additional MIPS-specific flags
in the st_other field besides visibility ones. These flags indicate
code properties like microMIPS / MIPS16 encoding, position independent
code etc. We need to transfer the flags from input objects to the
output linked file to write them into the symbol table, adjust symbols
addresses etc.
I add new attribute CodeModel to the DefinedAtom class to hold target
specific flag and to get over YAML/Native format conversion barrier.
Other architectures/targets can extend CodeModel enumeration by their
own flags.
MIPS specific part of this patch adds support for STO_MIPS_MICROMIPS
flag. This flag marks microMIPS symbols. Such symbol should:
a) Has STO_MIPS_MICROMIPS in the corresponding .symtab record.
b) Has adjusted (odd) address in the corresponding .symtab
and .dynsym records.
llvm-svn: 221864
The segment alignment for PT_LOAD segments is set to page size by default, but
if any of the sections require an alignment more than the page size, the segment
alignment property is set to the maximum alignment of the sections that are part
of the segment.
llvm-svn: 221862
The user can use the max-page-size option and set the maximum page size. Dont
check for maximum allowed values for page size, as its what the kernel is
configured with.
Fix the test as well.

Each entry in the delay-import address table had a wrong alignment
requirement if 32 bit. As a result it got wrong delay-import table.
Because llvm-readobj doesn't print out that field, we don't have a
test for that. I'll submit a test that would catch this bug after
improving llvm-readobj.

The GOT slots were being laid out in a random order by the GOTPass which
caused randomness in the output file.
Note: With this change lld now bootstraps on darwin. That is:
1) link lld using system linker to make lld.1
2) link lld using lld.1 to make lld.2
3) link lld using lld.2 to make lld.3
Now lld.2 and lld.3 are identical.
llvm-svn: 221831
On darwin in final linked images, the __TEXT segment covers that start of the
file. That means in memory a process can see the mach_header (and load commands)
for every loaded image in a process. There are APIs that take and return the
mach_header addresses as a way to specify a particular loaded image.
For completeness, any code can get the address of the mach_header of the image
it is in by using &__dso_handle. In addition there are mach-o type specific
symbols like __mh_execute_header.
The linker needs to supply a definition for any of these symbols if used. But
the address the symbol it resolves to is not in any section. Instead it is the
address of the start of the __TEXT segment.
I needed to make a small change to SimpleFileNode to not override
resetNextIndex() because the Driver creates a SimpleFileNode to hold the
internal/implicit files that the context/writer can create. For some reason
SimpleFileNode overrode resetNextIndex() to do nothing instead of reseting
the index (which mach-o needs if the internal file is an archive).
llvm-svn: 221822
The way lazy binding works in mach-o is that the linker generates a helper
function and has the stub (PLT) initially jump to it. The helper function
pushes an extra parameter then jumps into dyld. The extra parameter is an
offset into the lazy binding info where dyld will find the information about
which symbol to bind and way lazy binding pointer to update.

The dynamic table was creating the entry DT_FINI_ARRAY{SZ} even when there was
no .fini_array section. The entries should be creating in the dynamic section
only if there are sections .init_array/.fini_array in the output.

llvm-svn: 221588
The value of _DYNAMIC should be pointing at the start of the .dynamic segment.

lld generates an ELF by adhering to the ELF spec by aligning vma/fileoffset to a
page boundary, but this becomes an issue when dealing with large pages. This
adds support so that lld generated executables adheres to the ELF spec with the
rule vma % p_align = offset % p_align.
This is supported by the flag --no-align-segments.
This could be the default in few targets like X86_64 to save space on disk.
llvm-svn: 221571
The darwin linker lets you rearrange functions and data for better locality
(less paging). You do this with the -order_file option which supplies a text
file containing one symbol per line.
Implementing this required a small change to LayoutPass to add a custom sorter
hook.
llvm-svn: 221545
If /subsystem option is not given, the linker needs to infer the
subsystem based on the entry point symbol. If it fails to infer
that, the linker should error out on it.
LLD was almost correct, but it would fail to infer the subsystem
if the entry point is specified with /entry. This is because the
subsystem inference was coupled with the entry point function
searching (if no entry point name is specified, the linker needs
to find the right entry name).
This patch makes the subsystem inference an independent pass to
fix the issue. Now, as long as an entry point function is defined,
LLD can infer the subsystem no matter how it resolved the entry
point.
I don't think scanning all the defined symbols is fast, although
it shouldn't be that slow. The file class there does not provide
any easy way to find an atom by name, so this is what we can do
at this moment. I'd like to revisit this later to make it more
efficient.

The darwin linker has two ways to force all members of an archive to be loaded.

1. The path checks ELF header flags to prevent linking of incompatible files.
For example we do not allow to link files with different ABI, -mnan
flags, some combination of target CPU etc.
2. The patch merge ELF header flags from input object files to put their
combination to the generated file. For example, if some input files
have EF_MIPS_NOREORDER flag we need to put this flag to the output
file header.
I use the `parseFile()` (not `canParse()`) method because in case of
recognition of incorrect input flags combination we should show detailed
error message and stop the linking process and should not try to use
another `Reader`.
llvm-svn: 221439
Darwin uses two-level-namespace lookup for symbols which means the static
linker records where each symbol must be found at runtime. Thus defining a
symbol in a dylib loaded earlier will not effect where symbols needed by
later dylibs will be found. Instead overriding is done through a section
of type S_INTERPOSING which contains tuples of <interposer, interposee>.

The job of the CompactUnwind pass is to turn __compact_unwind data (and

This patch does *not* implement any semantic actions, but it is a first step to
teach LLD how to read complete linker scripts. The additional linker scripts
statements whose parsing is now supported are:
* SEARCH_DIR directive
* SECTIONS directive
* Symbol definitions inside SECTIONS including PROVIDE and PROVIDE_HIDDEN
* C-like expressions used in many places in linker scripts
* Input to output sections mapping
The goal of this commit was guided towards completely parsing a default GNU ld
linker script and the linker script used to link the FreeBSD kernel. Thus, it
also adds a test case based on the default linker script used in GNU ld for
x86_64 ELF targets. I tested SPEC userland programs linked by GNU ld, using the
linker script dump'ed by this parser, and everything went fine. I then tested
linking the FreeBSD kernel with a dump'ed linker script, installed the new
kernel and booted it, everything went fine.
Directives that still need to be implemented:
* MEMORY
* PHDRS

Objective-C switched to a new ABI which uses a different mangling for class
names. But to keep projects building that use export lists that use the old

This is a follow-up patch for r220333. r220333 renames exported symbols.

All compiler generated mach-o object files are marked with MH_SUBSECTIONS_VIA_SYMBOLS.
But hand written assembly files need to opt-in if they are written correctly.
The flag means the linker can break up a sections at symbol addresses and
dead strip or re-order functions.
This change recognizes object files without the flag and marks its atoms as
not dead strippable and adds a layout-after chain of references so that the
atoms cannot be re-ordered.
llvm-svn: 220348
There are two ways to specify a symbol to be exported in the module
definition file.
1) EXPORT <external name> = <symbol>
2) EXPORT <symbol>
In (1), you give both external name and internal name. In that case,
the linker tries to find a symbol using the internal name, and write
that address to the export table with the external name. Thus, from
the outer world, the symbol seems to be exported as the external name.
In (2), internal name is basically the same as the external name
with an exception: if you give an undecorated symbol to the EXPORT
directive, and if the linker finds a decorated symbol, the external
name for the symbol will become the decorated symbol.
LLD didn't implement that exception correctly. This patch fixes that.
llvm-svn: 220333
The darwin linker operates differently than the gnu linker with respect to
libraries. The darwin linker first links in all object files from the command
line, then to resolve any remaining undefines, it repeatedly iterates over
libraries on the command line until either all undefines are resolved or no
undefines were resolved in the last pass.
When Shankar made the InputGraph model, the plan for darwin was for the darwin
driver to place all libraries in a group at the end of the InputGraph. Thus
making the darwin model a subset of the gnu model. But it turns out that does
not work because the driver cannot tell if a file is an object or library until
it has been loaded, which happens later.
This solution is to subclass InputGraph for darwin and just iterate the graph
the way darwin linker needs.

-all_load tells the darwin linker to immediately load all members of all

Added test case to reproduce the crash, simplified the code and used dyn_cast<>.

Arm code has two instruction encodings "thumb" and "arm". When branching from
one code encoding to another, you need to use an instruction that switches
the instruction mode. Usually the transition only happens at call sites, and
the linker can transform a BL instruction in BLX (or vice versa). But if the
compiler did a tail call optimization and a function ends with a branch (not
branch and link), there is no pc-rel BX instruction.
The ShimPass looks for pc-rel B instructions that will need to switch mode.
For those cases it synthesizes a shim which does the transition, then modifies
the original atom with the B instruction to target to the shim atom.

This commit implements in the X86_64 ELF lld backend yet another feature that
was only available in the MIPS backend. However, this patch changes generic ELF
classes to make it trivial for other ELF backends to use this logic too. When
creating a dynamic executable that has dynamic relocations against weak
undefined symbols, these symbols must be exported to the dynamic symbol table
to seek a possible resolution at run time.
A common use case is the __gmon_start__ weak glibc undefined symbol.

When creating a dynamic executable and receiving the -E flag, the linker should
export all globally visible symbols in its dynamic symbol table.
This commit also moves the logic that exports symbols in the dynamic symbol
table from OutputELFWriter to the ExecutableWriter class. It is not correct to
leave this at OutputELFWriter because DynamicLibraryWriter, another subclass of
OutputELFWriter, already exports all symbols, meaning we can potentially end up
with duplicated symbols in the dynamic symbol table when creating shared libs.

mach-o supports "fat" files which are a header/table-of-contents followed by a
concatenation of mach-o files (or archives of mach-o files) built for
different architectures. Previously, the support for fat files was in the
MachOReader, but that only supported fat .o files and dylibs (not archives).
The fix is to put the fat handing into MachOFileNode. That way any input file
kind (including archives) can be fat. MachOFileNode selects the sub-range
of the fat file that matches the arch being linked and creates a MemoryBuffer
for just that subrange.

Previously, we would not check the target machine type and the module (object)

This change identified a couple of tests which were incorrectly mixing up
architecture types, using x86 input for a x64 target. Adjust the tests
appropriately. The renaming of the input and the architectures covers the
changes to the existing tests.
One significant change to the existing tests is that the newly added test input
for x64 uses the correct user label prefix for X64.

When creating the graph edges of the atoms of an ELF file, special care must be
taken with atoms that represent weak symbols. They cannot be the target of any
Reference::kindLayoutAfter edge because they can be merged and point to other
code, screwing up the final layout of the atoms. ELFFile::createAtoms()
correctly handles this corner case. The problem is that createAtoms() assumed
that there can be no zero-sized weak symbols, which is not true. Consider:
my_weak_func1:
my_weak_func2:
my_weak_func3:
code
In this case, we have two zero-sized weak symbols, my_weak_func1 and
my_weak_func2, and one non-zero weak symbol my_weak_func3. createAtoms() would
correctly handle my_weak_func3, but not the first two symbols. This problem
happens in the musl C library when a zero-sized weak symbol is merged and
screws up the file layout. Since this musl code lives at the finalization hooks,
any C program linked with LLD and musl was correctly executing, but segfaulting
at the end.

DLL delay importing is a feature to load a DLL lazily, instead of
at program start-up time.
If the feature is turned on with the /delayload flag, the linker
resolves the delay-load helper function. All function pointer table
entries for the DLL are initially pointing to the helper function.
When called, the function loads and resolves the DLL symbols using
dlopen-ish Windows system calls and then write the reuslts to the
function pointer table. The helper function is in "delayimp.lib".
Note that this feature is not completely implemented yet. LLD
also needs to emit the table that's consumed by the delay-load
helper function. That'll be done in another patch.

The mergeByContent attribute on DefinedAtoms triggers the symbol table to
coalesce atoms with the exact same content. The problem is that atoms can also

sectionChoice() and customSectionName() attributes match.

The darwin linker has the -demangle option which directs it to demangle C++
(and soon Swift) mangled symbol names. Long term we need some Diagnostics object
for formatting errors and warnings. But for now we have the Core linker just
writing messages to llvm::errs(). So, to enable demangling, I changed the
Resolver to call a LinkingContext method on the symbol name.
To make this more interesting, the demangling code is done via __cxa_demangle()
which is part of the C++ ABI, which is only supported on some platforms, so I
had to conditionalize the code with the config generated HAVE_CXXABI_H.

Summary:
This patch adds support for the general dynamic TLS access model for X86_64 (see www.akkadia.org/drepper/tls.pdf).
To properly support TLS, the patch also changes the __tls_get_addr atom to be a shared library atom instead of a regularly defined atom (the previous lld approach). This closely models the reality of a function that will be resolved at runtime by the dynamic linker and loader itself (ld.so). I was tempted to force LLD to link against ld.so itself to resolve these symbols, but since GNU ld does not need the ld.so library to resolve this symbol, I decided to mimic its behavior and keep hardwired a definition of __tls_get_addr in the lld code.
This patch also moves some important logic that previously was only available to the MIPS lld backend to be used to all ELF backends. This logic, which now lives in the DefaultLayout class, will monitor which external (shared lib) symbols are really imported by the current module and will only populate the dynamic symbol table with used symbols, as opposed to the previous approach of dumping all shared lib symbols in the dynamic symbol table. This is important to this patch to avoid __tls_get_addr from getting injected into all dynamic symbol tables.
By solving the previous problem of always adding __tls_get_addr, now the produced symbol tables are slightly smaller. But this impacted several tests that relied on hardwired/predefined sizes of the symbol table, requiring this patch to update such tests.
Test Plan: Added a LIT test case that exercises a simple use case of TLS variable in a shared library.

Previously we emit two or more identical definitions for an
exported symbol if the same /export option is given more than
once. This patch fixes that bug.
llvm-svn: 218433
Currently you can omit the leading underscore from exported
symbol name. LLD will look for mangled name for you. But it won't
look for C++ mangled name.
This patch is to support that.
If "sym" is specified to be exported, the linker looks for not
only "sym", but also "_sym" and "?sym@@<whatever>", so that you
can export a C++ function without decorating it.
llvm-svn: 218355
If two or more /export options are given for the same symbol, we should
always print a warning message and use the first one regardless of other
parameters.
Previously there was a case that the first parameter is not used.

A symbol in a module definition file may be annotated with the
PRIVATE keyword like this.
EXPORTS
func PRIVATE
The PRIVATE keyword does not affect the resulting .dll file.
But it prevents the symbol to be listed in the .lib (import
library) file.
llvm-svn: 218273
Patch from Rafael Auler!
When a shared lib has an undefined symbol that is defined in a regular object
(the program), the final executable must export this symbol in the dynamic
symbol table. However, in the current logic, lld only puts the symbol in the
dynamic symbol table if the symbol is weak. This patch fixes lld to put the
symbol in the dynamic symbol table regardless if it is weak or not.
This caused a problem in FreeBSD10, whose programs link against a crt1.o
that defines the symbol __progname, which is, in turn, undefined in libc.so.7
and will only be resolved in runtime.

Atoms are ordered in the output file by ordinal. File has file ordinal,
and atom has atom ordinal which is unique within the file.
No two atoms should have the same combination of ordinals.
However that contract was not satisifed for alias atoms. Alias atom
is defined by /alternatename:sym1=sym2. In this case sym1 is defined
as an alias for sym2. sym1 always got ordinal 0.
As a result LLD failed with an assertion failure.
This patch assigns ordinal to alias atoms.

I made LLD to report an error if /safeseh:no option is given on x64,
but it turned out MSVC link.exe doesn't report error on it.
Removing the check.

The contents from section .CRT$XLA to .CRT$XLZ is an array of function
pointers. They are called by the runtime when a new thread is created
or (gracefully) terminated.
You can make your own initialization function to be called by that
mechanism. All you have to do is:
- Define a pointer to a function in a .CRT$XL* section using pragma
- Make an external reference to "__tls_used" symbol
That technique is used in many projects. This patch is to support that.
What this patch does is to set the relative virtual address of
"__tls_used" to the PECOFF directory table. __tls_used is actually a
struct containing pointers to a symbol in .CRT$XLA and another symbol
in .CRT$XLZ. The runtime looks at the directory table, gets the address
of the struct, and call the function pointers between XLA and XLZ.
llvm-svn: 218007
On darwin, the linker tools records which dylib (DSO) each undefined was found
in, and then at runtime, the loader (dyld) only looks in that one specific
dylib for each undefined symbol. Now that llvm-objdump can display that info
I can write test cases.
llvm-svn: 217898
The provided base must also be a multiple of the system's page size, which is a
reasonable enough demand.
Also check the other diagnostics more thoroughly.

The existing system linkers on Darwin and Linux are called "ld". We'd like to
eventually drop in lld as "ld" and have it just work. But lld is a universal
linker that requires the first option to be -flavor to know which command line
mode to emulate (gnu or darwin).
This change tests if argv[0] is "ld" and if so, if the tool was built on MacOSX
then assume the darwin flavor otherwise the gnu flavor. There are two test
cases which copy lld to "ld" and then run it. One for darwin and one for linux.
llvm-svn: 217566
Most of the changes are in the new file ArchHandler_arm64.cpp. But a few
things had to be fixed to support 16KB pages (instead of 4KB) which iOS arm64
requires. In addition the StubInfo struct had to be expanded because
arm64 uses two instruction (ADRP/LDR) to load a global which requires two
relocations. The other mach-o arches just needed one relocation.
llvm-svn: 217469
There is a bit (MH_PIE) in the flags field of the mach_header which tells
the kernel is a program was built position independent (for ASLR). The linker
automatically attempts to build programs PIE if they are built for a recent
OS version. But the -pie and -no_pie options override that default behavior.
llvm-svn: 217408
defined in a shared library.
Now LLD does not export a strong defined symbol if it coalesces away a
weak symbol defined in a shared library. This bug affects all ELF
architectures and leads to segfault:
% cat foo.c
extern int __attribute__((weak)) flag;
int foo() { return flag; }
% cat main.c
int flag = 1;
int foo();
int main() { return foo() == 1 ? 0 : -1; }
% clang -c -fPIC foo.c main.c
% lld -flavor gnu -target x86_64 -shared -o libfoo.so ... foo.o
% lld -flavor gnu -target x86_64 -o a.out ... main.o libfoo.so
% ./a.out
Segmentation fault
The problem is caused by the fact that we lose all information about
coalesced symbols after the `Resolver::resolve()` method is finished.
The patch solves the problem by overriding the
`LinkingContext::notifySymbolTableCoalesce()` method and saving names
of coalesced symbols. Later in the `buildDynamicSymbolTable()` routine
we use this information to export these symbols.
llvm-svn: 217363
When a file is not found, produce a proper error message. The previous error
message produced a file format error, which made me wonder for a while why
there is a file format error, but essentially the file was not found.
This fixes the problem by producing a proper error message.

By default linker would not create a separate segment to hold read only data.
This option overrides that behavior by creating the a separate read only segment
for read only data.
llvm-svn: 217358
Mach-O has a "fat" (or "universal") variant where the same contents built for
different architectures are concatenated into one file with a table-of-contents
header at the start. But this leaves a dilemma for the linker - which
architecture to use.
Normally, the linker command line -arch is used to force which slice of any fat
files are used. The clang compiler always passes -arch to the linker when
invoking it. But some Makefiles invoke the linker directly and don’t specify
the -arch option. For those cases, the linker scans all input files in command
line order and finds the first non-fat object file. Whatever architecture it
is becomes the architecture for the link.
llvm-svn: 217189
The use of default: was disabling the warning about unused enumerators. Fix
that, then fix the one enumerator that was not handled. Add coverage for
it in test suite.
llvm-svn: 217078
On Darwin at runtime, dyld will prefer to use the export trie of a dylib instead
of the traditional symbol table (which is large and requires a binary search).
This change enables the linker to generate an export trie and to prefer it if
found in a dylib being linked against. This also simples the yaml for dylibs
because the yaml form of the trie can be reduced to just a sequence of names.
llvm-svn: 217066
I hope this is the last fix for x64 relocations as I've wasted
a few days on this.
This caused a mysterious issue that some C++ programs crash on
startup. It was because a null pointer is passed as argv to main.
__tmainCRTStartup calls main, but before that it calls all
initialization routines between .text$xc_a and .text$xc_z.
pre_cpp_init is one of such routines, and it is the one who
initializes a heap pointer for argv for later use. That routine
was not called for some reason.
It turned out that __tmainCRTStartup was skipping a block of
code because of the relocation bug. A condition in the function
depends on a memory load, and that memory load was referring
a wrong location. As a result a jump instruction took the
wrong branch, skipping pre_cpp_init and so on.
This patch fixes the issue. Also added more tests to fix them
once and for all.
llvm-svn: 216772
When a relocation is applied to a location, the new value needs
to be added to the existing value at the location. Existing
value is in most cases zero, but if not, the current code does
not work.
llvm-svn: 216680
Image Base field in the PE/COFF header is used as hint for the loader.
If the loader can load the executable at the specified address, that's
fine, but if not, it has to load it at a different address.
If that happens, the loader has to fix up the addresses in the
executable by adding the offset. The list of addresses that need to
be fixed is in .reloc section.
This patch is to emit x64 .reloc section contents.
llvm-svn: 216636
IMAGE_REL_AMD64_ADDR64 relocation should set 64-bit *VA* (virtual
address) instead of *RVA* (relative virtual address), so we have
to add the iamge base to the target's RVA.
llvm-svn: 216512
The implementation of AMD64 relocations was imcomplete
and wrong. On AMD64, we of course have to use AMD64
relocations instead of i386 ones. This patch fixes the
issue.
LLD is now able to link hello64.obj (created from

Both options control the final scope of atoms.
When -exported_symbols_list <file> is used, the file is parsed into one
symbol per line in the file. Only those symbols will be exported (global)
in the final linked image.
The -keep_private_externs option is only used with -r mode. Normally, -r
mode reduces private extern (scopeLinkageUnit) symbols to non-external. But
add the -keep_private_externs option keeps them private external.
llvm-svn: 216146
The darwin linker has an option, heavily used by Xcode, in which, instead
of listing all input files on the command line, the input file paths are
written to a text file and the path of that text file is passed to the linker
with the -filelist option (similar to @file).
In order to make test cases for this, I generalized the -test_libresolution
option to become -test_file_usage.
llvm-svn: 215762
Darwin has a packaging mechanism for shared libraries and headers called
frameworks. A directory Foo.framework contains a shared library binary file
"Foo" and a subdirectory "Headers". Most OS frameworks are all in one
directory /System/Library/Frameworks/. As a linking convenience, the linker
option "-framework Foo" means search the framework directories specified
with -F (analogous to -L) looking for a shared library Foo.framework/Foo.
llvm-svn: 215680
In general two-level namespace means each program records exactly which dylib
each undefined (imported) symbol comes from. But, sometimes the implementor
wants to hide the implementation dylib. For instance libSytem.dylib is the base
dylib all Darwin programs must link with. A few years ago it was split up
into two dozen dylibs by all are hidden behind libSystem.dylib which re-exports
each sub-dylib. All clients still think libSystem.dylib is the implementor.
To support this, the linker must load "indirect" dylibs and not just the
"direct" dylibs specified on the command line. This is done in the
createImplicitFiles() method after all command line specified files are
loaded. Since an indirect dylib may have already been loaded as a direct dylib
(or indirectly via a previous direct dylib), the MachOLinkingContext keeps
a list of all loaded dylibs.
With this change hello world can now be linked against the real OS or SDK.
llvm-svn: 215605
Split up the CRuntimeFile into one part for output types that need an entry
point and another part for output types that use stubs.
Add file 'test/mach-o/Inputs/libSystem.yaml' for use by test cases that
use -dylib and therefore may now need the helper symbol in libSystem.dylib.
llvm-svn: 215602
Mach-o uses "two-level namespace" where each undefined symbols is associated
with a specific dylib. This means at runtime the loader (dyld) does need to
search all loaded dylibs for that symbol but rather just the one specified.
Now that llvm-nm -m prints out that info, properly set that info, and test
it in the hello world test cases.
llvm-svn: 215598

The commit of the .ent/.end implementation will change the result of the
relocation evaluations (because of a new section and additional relocations)
which will lead to a failure if the .ent/.end directives are present in this
test.
We don't really need the .ent/.end directives in this test so let's just remove
them to preserve the current output.
llvm-svn: 215534
/INCLUDE arguments passed as command line options are handled in the
same way as Unix -u. All option values are converted to an undefined
symbol and added to a dummy input file, so that the specified symbols
are resolved.
One tricky thing on Windows is that the option is also allowed to
appear in the object file's directive section. At the time when
it's being read, all (regular) command line options have already
been processed. We cannot add undefined atoms to the dummy file
anymore.
Previously, we added such /INCLUDE to a set that has already been
processed. As a result the options were ignored.
This patch fixes the issue. Now, /INCLUDE symbols in the directive
section are handled as real undefined symbol in the COFF file.
We create an undefined symbol for each /INCLUDE argument and add
it to the file being parsed.
llvm-svn: 214824
The PE/COFF spec says that SizeOfRawData field in the section
header must be a multiple of FileAlignment from the optional
header. LLD emits 512 as FileAlignment, so it must have been
a multiple of 512.
LLD did not follow that. It emitted the actual section size
without the last padding as the SizeOfRawData. Although it's
not correct as per the spec, the Windows loader doesn't seem
to actually bother to check that. Executables created by LLD
worked fine.
However, tools dealing with executalbe files may expect it
to be the correct value, and one instance of it is mt.exe
tool distributed as a part of Windows SDK.
If CMake is invoked with "-E vs_link_exe" option, it silently
run mt.exe to embed a resource file to the resulting file.
And mt.exe sometimes breaks an input file if it's section
header does not follow the standard. That caused a misterous
error that CMake with Ninja occasionally produces a broken
executable.
This patch fixes the section header to make mt.exe and
other tools happy.
llvm-svn: 214453
In some cases the address of a function will be materialized with a movw/movt
pair. If the function is a thumb function, the low bit needs to be set on
the movw immediate value.
llvm-svn: 214277
The -sectalign option is used to increase the alignment required for a section.
It required some reworking of how the __TEXT segment is laid out because that
segment also contains the mach_header and load commands. And the size of load
commands depend on the number of segments, sections, and dependent dylibs used.
Using this option will simplify some future test cases because the final
address of code can be pinned down, making tests of its content easier.
llvm-svn: 214268
All iOS arm processor support switching between arm and thumb mode at call sites
by using the BLX instruction (instead of BL). But the compiler does not know
the implementation mode for extern functions, so the linker must update BL/BLX
instructions to match what is linked is actually linked together. In addition,
pointers to functions (such as vtables) must have the low bit set if the target
of the pointer is a thumb mode function.
llvm-svn: 214140
Sometimes compilers emit data into code sections (e.g. constant pools or
jump tables). These runs of data can throw off disassemblers. The solution
in mach-o is that ranges of data-in-code are encoded into a table pointed to
by the LC_DATA_IN_CODE load command.
The way the data-in-code information is encoded into lld's Atom model is that
that start and end of each data run is marked with a Reference whose offset
is the start/end of the data run. For arm, the switch back to code also marks
whether it is thumb or arm code.
llvm-svn: 213901
On Windows there are four "main" functions -- main, wmain, WinMain,
or wWinMain. Their parameter types are diffferent. The standard
library provides four different entry functions (i.e.
{w,}{WinMain,main}CRTStartup) for them. You need to use the right
entry routine for your "main" function.
If you give an /entry option, the specified name is used
unconditionally.
Otherwise, the linker needs to select the right one based on
user-supplied entry point function. This can be done after the
linker reads all the input files.
This patch moves the code to determine the entry point function
from the driver to a virtual input file. It also implements the
correct logic for the entry point function selection.
llvm-svn: 213713
This patch just supports marking ranges that are thumb code (vs arm code).

There are two forms of `-l` prefixed expression:
* -l<libname>
* -l:<filename>
In the first case a linker should construct a full library name
`lib + libname + .[so|a]` and search this library as usual. In the second case
a linker should use the `<filename>` as is and search this file through library
search directories.

Previously we invoked cvtres.exe for each compiled Windows
resource file. The generated files were then concatenated
and embedded to the executable.
That was not the correct way to merge compiled Windows
resource files. If you just concatenate generated files,
only the first file would be recognized and the rest would
be ignored as trailing garbage.
The right way to merge them is to call cvtres.exe with
multiple input files. In this patch we do that in the
Windows driver.

These behave slightly idiosyncratically in the best of cases, and have
additional hacks layered on top of that for compatibility with badly behaved
build systems (via ld64).
For -lXYZ:
+ If XYZ is actually XY.o then search all library paths for XY.o
+ Otherwise search all library paths, first for libXYZ.dylib, then libXYZ.a
+ By default the library paths are /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib in that order.
For -syslibroot:
+ -syslibroot options apply to absolute paths in the search order.
+ All -syslibroot prefixes that exist are added to the search path *instead*
of the original.
+ If no -syslibroot prefixed path exists, the original is kept.
+ Hacks^WExceptions:
+ If only 1 -syslibroot is given and doesn't contain /usr/lib or
/usr/local/lib, that path is dropped entirely. (rdar://problem/6438270).
+ If the last -syslibroot is "/", all of them are ignored entirely.
(rdar://problem/5829579).
At least, that's my best interpretation of what ld64 does in buildSearchPaths.

Previously the alignment of the .bss section was not

This isn't really the right place to put them in final object files (that would
be __TEXT,__unwind_info), but the format is different between relocatable and
final objects, which means we really need a pass to handle the translation.
For now, re-emitting in __LD,__compact_unwind is harmless (dyld ignores it and
moves straight on to inspecting __TEXT,__eh_frame), and sidesteps an assertion
failure when processing files containing compact-unwind info.
llvm-svn: 212032
Segments must occupy a multiple of the page size in memory (4096 currently). We
check for this when emitting files, but the placement algorithm broke down for
the second non-__TEXT segment encountered: the offset wasn't aligned up to 4096
before starting its layout.
llvm-svn: 212031
Because of how we were calculating fileOffset and fileSize for segments, most
ended up at a single offset in a finalised MachO file. This meant the data

useful.

This is first step in reworking how mach-o relocations are processed.
The existing KindHandler is going to become a delgate/helper object for
processing architecture specific references. The KindHandler knows how
to convert mach-o relocations into References and back, as well, as fixing
up the content the relocation is on.
One of the messy things about mach-o relocations is that they sometime
come in pairs, but the pairs still convert to one lld::Reference. So, the
conversion has to detect pairs (arch specific) and change the stride.

When looking through sections with zero-terminated string-literals (__cstring

dynamic symbol table populating and DT_NEEDED tag creation.
The `isDynSymEntryRequired` function returns true if the specified shared
library atom requires a dynamic symbol table entry. The `isNeededTagRequired`
function returns true if we need to create DT_NEEDED tag for the shared
library defined specified shared atom.
By default the both functions return true. So there is no functional changes
for all targets except MIPS. Probably we need to spread the same modifications
on other ELF targets but I want to implement and fully tested complete set of
changes for MIPS target first.
For MIPS we create a dynamic symbol table entry for a shared library atom iif
this atom is referenced by a regular defined atom. For example, if library L1
defines symbol T1, library L2 defines symbol T2 and uses symbol T1
and executable file E1 uses symbol T2 but does not use symbol T1 we create
an entry in the E1 dynamic symbol table for symbol T2 and do not create
an entry for T1.
The patch creates DT_NEEDED tags for shared libraries contain shared library
atoms which a) referenced by regular defined atoms; b) have corresponding
copy dynamic relocations (R_MIPS_COPY).
Now the patch does not take in account --as-needed / --no-as-needed command
line options. So it is too restrictive and create DT_NEEDED tags for really
needed shared libraries only. I plan to fix that by subsequent patches.

COFF supports a feature similar to ELF's section groups. This
patch implements it.
In ELF, section groups are identified by their names, and they are
treated somewhat differently from regular symbols. In COFF, the
feature is realized in a more straightforward way. A section can
have an annotation saying "if Nth section is linked, link this
section too."
I added a new reference type, kindAssociate. If a target atom is
coalesced away, the referring atom is removed by Resolver, so that
they are treated as a group.

Implementing such feature is easy. We can add a reference from a

the original atom is also linked. If not linked, both will be
dead-stripped. So they are treated as a group.
I added a new reference type, kindAssociate. It does nothing except
preventing referenced atoms from being dead-stripped.
No change to the Resolver is needed.
