This is a bit of an odd feature. It is normally used in
. = SEGMENT_START(seg, val);
In bfd it evaluates to val or to the value of the corresponding
-T<seg>-segment. Note that the -T<seg>-segment in bfd doesn't actually
change the segment address, just the value this evaluates too,
including in the default linker script.
In gold the -T<seg>-segment options do change the segment address and
seeing this expressions in linker scripts disables the options.
For new this just always evaluates the expression to val.

The previous run line depended on libSystem.dylib being present, which it's not
on non-darwin platforms. The new run line uses libSystem.yaml instead.

Some scripts can contain SORT(CONSTRUCTORS) expression:
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/conf/ldscript.amd64?revision=284870&view=markup#l152
for ELF it just a nop:
"When linking object file formats which do not support arbitrary sections, such as ECOFF and XCOFF, the linker will automatically recognize C++ global constructors and destructors by name. For these object file formats, the CONSTRUCTORS command tells the linker to place constructor information in the output section where the CONSTRUCTORS command appears. The CONSTRUCTORS command is ignored for other object file formats."
(http://www.sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.10/ld_3.html)
So patch implements ignoring.

This patch causes LLD to build stabs debugging symbols for files containing
DWARF debug info, and to propagate existing stabs symbols for object files
built using '-r' mode. This enables debugging of binaries generated by LLD
from MachO objects.

In compare with what GNU linkers do (https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/Builtin-Functions.html),
this implementation simple:
Do not touch DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN, it do what it do now - just aligns to the page boundary.
Parameters of DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END is ignored. That should be correct as it is usually just a 24 bytes
shift that allows to protect first 3 entries of got.plt with relro.
(https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/conf/ldscript.amd64?revision=284870&view=markup#l146).
DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END just aligns to the page boundary.
That is what expected because all sections that are not affected by relro should be on another memory page.
So at fact the difference with documented behavior is that we do not pad DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN.
3 entries of got.plt are uncovered by relro, but functionality is simple and equal to lld behavior
for case when script is not given.

We can simplify the evaluation of DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN
just to simple align(). That way it will work exactly like we have in non-script case.

This flag is implemented similarly to --reproduce in the ELF linker.
This patch implements /linkrepro by moving the cpio writer and associated
utility functions to lldCore, and using that implementation in both linkers.
One COFF-specific detail is that we store the object file from which the
resource files were created in our reproducer, rather than the resource
files themselves. This allows the reproducer to be used on non-Windows
systems for example.

Previously, we handled an expression as a vector of tokens. In other
words, an expression was a vector of uncooked raw StringRefs.
When we need a value of an expression, we used ExprParser to run
the expression.
The separation was needed essentially because parse time is too
early to evaluate an expression. In order to evaluate an expression,
we need to finalize section sizes. Because linker script parsing
is done at very early stage of the linking process, we can't
evaluate expressions while parsing.
The above mechanism worked fairly well, but there were a few
drawbacks.
One thing is that we sometimes have to parse the same expression
more than once in order to find the end of the expression.
In some contexts, linker script expressions have no clear end marker.
So, we needed to recognize balanced expressions and ternary operators.
The other is poor error reporting. Since expressions are parsed
basically twice, and some information that is available at the first
stage is lost in the second stage, it was hard to print out
apprpriate error messages.
This patch fixes the issues with a new approach.
Now the expression parsing is integrated into ScriptParser.
ExprParser class is removed. Expressions are represented as lambdas
instead of vectors of tokens. Lambdas captures information they
need to run themselves when they are created.
In this way, ends of expressions are naturally detected, and
errors are handled in the usual way. This patch also reduces
the amount of code.

Not all relocations from a .eh_frame that point to an executable
section should be ignored. In particular, the relocation finding the
personality function should not.
This is a reduction from trying to bootstrap a static lld on linux.

It is called basic because:
CONSTANT expression can refer to COMMONPAGESIZE and MAXPAGESIZE.
This sizes are usually different and used for possible optimization of
memory consumption.
More details are here: https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2002-02/msg00265.html
We currently do not support this optimization, so both CONSTANT(MAXPAGESIZE)
and CONSTANT(COMMONPAGESIZE) just return Target->PageSize value.
DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN and DATA_SEGMENT_END are used as a part of opt.
The latter one is just ignored now.
According to documentation DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN has 2 possible
calculation, but since we do not support mentioned opt - it
is always calculated now as (ALIGN(MAXPAGESIZE) + (. & (MAXPAGESIZE - 1))).
In general this should work for now until we deside to support this opt.

We no longer need it for relocations in .eh_frame.
The only relocations that point to .eh_frame are the ones trying to
find the output .eh_frame.
This actually fixes a bug in the symbol value code. It was not
handling -1 as an indicator for a piece not being included in the
output.

LLD still does not produce a correct combination of MIPS ELF flags if
input files have different sets of ELF flags (i.e. EF_MIPS_ARCH_32 and
EF_MIPS_ARCH_32R2). But now we do not stick to "R2" ABI version and can
emit EF_MIPS_ARCH_32R6 for example.

- R_ARM_TLS_LDO32
The local dynamic implementation and tests follows the same model as
the other ARM TLS models. The R_ARM_TLS_LDO32 is implemented as R_ABS
expr type as the getVA() for a TLS symbol will return the offset from the
start of the TLS block.

Add relocations and identification functions for the Initial Exec
and Global Dynamic TLS model defined in Addenda to, and Errata in,
the ABI for the ARM Architecture.
ARM uses variant 1 of the thread local storage data
structures as defined in ELF Handling for Thread-Local Storage.
The "experimental" descriptor based model that can be selected in
gcc, but not clang with -mtls-dialect=gnu2 is not supported.
The relocations R_ARM_TLS_LE12 and R_ARM_TLS_IE12GP are not
supported, I know of no ARM Toolchain that supports these relocations
as they limit the size of the TLS block.
No code relaxation is supported as the standard ARM TLS model puts
the relocations on literal data.
Support for the local dynamic model will come in a follow up patch.

--trace-symbol is a command line option to watch a symbol.
Previosly, we looked up a hash table for a new symbol if the
option is given. Any code that looks up a hash table for each
symbol is expensive because the linker handles a lot of symbols.
In our design, we look up a hash table strictly only once
for a symbol, so --trace-symbol was an exception.
This patch improves efficiency of the option by merging the
hash table into the symbol table.
Instead of looking up a separate hash table with a string,
this patch sets `Traced` flag to symbols specified by --trace-symbol.
So, if you insert a symbol and get a symbol with `Traced` flag on,
you know that you need to print out a log message for the symbol.
This is nearly zero cost.
