Merging data segments produces smaller code sizes because each segment
has some boilerplate. Therefore, merging data segments is generally the
right approach, especially with wasm where binaries are typically
delivered over the network.
However, when analyzing wasm binaries, it can be helpful to get a
conservative picture of which functions are using which data
segments[0]. Perhaps there is a large data segment that you didn't
expect to be included in the wasm, introduced by some library you're
using, and you'd like to know which library it was. In this scenario,
merging data segments only makes the analysis worse.
Alternatively, perhaps you will remove some dead functions by-hand[1]
that can't be statically proven dead by the compiler or lld, and
removing these functions might make some data garbage collect-able, and
you'd like to run `--gc-sections` again so that this now-unused data can
be collected. If the segments were originally merged, then a single use
of the merged data segment will entrench all of the data.

A non-alloc note section should not have a PT_NOTE program header.
Found while linking ghc (Haskell compiler) with lld on FreeBSD.
ghc emits a .debug-ghc-link-info note section (as the name suggests, it
contains link information) as a SHT_NOTE section without SHF_ALLOC set.
For this case ld.bfd does not emit a PT_NOTE segment for the
.debug-ghc-link-info section. lld previously emitted a PT_NOTE with
p_vaddr = 0 and FreeBSD's rtld segfaulted when trying to parse a note at

The operator == used for exporting a function with a different
name in the DLL compared to the name in the import library
(which is useful for adding linker level aliases for function
in the import library) is a feature distinct and different from
the operator = used for exporting a function with a different
name (both in import library and DLL) than in the implementation
producing the DLL.
When creating an import library using dlltool, from a def file that
contains forwards (Func = OtherDll.Func), this shouldn't affect the
produced import library, which should still behave just as if it
was a normal exported function.
This clears a lot of confusion and subtle misunderstandings, and
avoids a parameter that was used to avoid creating weak aliases
when invoked from lld. (This parameter was added previously due to
the existing conflation of the two features.)

Some MIPS relocations depend on "gp" value. By default, this value has
0x7ff0 offset from a .got section. But relocatable files produced by a
compiler or a linker might redefine this default value and we have to
use it for a calculation of the relocation result. When we generate EXE
or DSO it's trivial. Generating a relocatable output is more difficult
case because the linker does calculate relocations in this case and
cannot store individual "gp" values used by each input object file.
As a workaround we add the "gp" value to the relocation addend.

something like . = ASSERT((_end - _text <= (512 * 1024 * 1024)), "kernel image bigger than KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE");
Nowadays above is not a mandatory form and command-like form is commonly used:
ASSERT(<expr>, "text);
The return value of the ASSERT is Dot. That was implemented in D30171.
It looks like (2) is just a short version of (1) then.
GNU ld does *not* list ASSERT as a SECTIONS command:

This is what link.exe does and lets us avoid needing to worry about
merging output characteristics while adding input sections to output
sections.
With this change we can't process /merge in the same way as before
because sections with different output characteristics can still
be merged into one another. So this change moves the processing of
/merge to just before we assign addresses. In the case where there
are multiple output sections with the same name, link.exe only merges
the first section with the source name into the first section with
the target name, and we do the same.
At the same time I also implemented transitive merging (which means
that /merge:.c=.b /merge:.b=.a merges both .c and .b into .a).
This isn't quite enough though because link.exe has a special case for
.CRT in 32-bit mode: it processes sections whose output characteristics
are DATA | R | W as though the output characteristics were DATA | R
(so that they get merged into things like constructor lists in the
expected way). Chromium has a few such sections, and it turns out
that those sections were causing the problem that resulted in r318699
(merge .xdata into .rdata) being reverted: because of the previous
permission merging semantics, the .CRT sections were causing the entire
.rdata section to become writable, which caused the SEH runtime to
crash because it apparently requires .xdata to be read-only. This
change also implements the same special case.
This should unblock being able to merge .xdata into .rdata by default,
as well as .bss into .data, both of which will be done in followups.

I'm proposing a new command line flag, --warn-backrefs in this patch.
The flag and the feature proposed below don't exist in GNU linkers
nor the current lld.
--warn-backrefs is an option to detect reverse or cyclic dependencies
between static archives, and it can be used to keep your program
compatible with GNU linkers after you switch to lld. I'll explain the
feature and why you may find it useful below.
lld's symbol resolution semantics is more relaxed than traditional
Unix linkers. Therefore,
ld.lld foo.a bar.o
succeeds even if bar.o contains an undefined symbol that have to be
resolved by some object file in foo.a. Traditional Unix linkers
don't allow this kind of backward reference, as they visit each
file only once from left to right in the command line while
resolving all undefined symbol at the moment of visiting.
In the above case, since there's no undefined symbol when a linker
visits foo.a, no files are pulled out from foo.a, and because the
linker forgets about foo.a after visiting, it can't resolve
undefined symbols that could have been resolved otherwise.
That lld accepts more relaxed form means (besides it makes more
sense) that you can accidentally write a command line or a build
file that works only with lld, even if you have a plan to
distribute it to wider users who may be using GNU linkers. With
--check-library-dependency, you can detect a library order that
doesn't work with other Unix linkers.
The option is also useful to detect cyclic dependencies between
static archives. Again, lld accepts
ld.lld foo.a bar.a
even if foo.a and bar.a depend on each other. With --warn-backrefs
it is handled as an error.
Here is how the option works. We assign a group ID to each file. A
file with a smaller group ID can pull out object files from an
archive file with an equal or greater group ID. Otherwise, it is a
reverse dependency and an error.
A file outside --{start,end}-group gets a fresh ID when
instantiated. All files within the same --{start,end}-group get the
same group ID. E.g.
ld.lld A B --start-group C D --end-group E
A and B form group 0, C, D and their member object files form group
1, and E forms group 2. I think that you can see how this group
assignment rule simulates the traditional linker's semantics.

Currently LLD sets OutSecOff in addSection for input sections.
That is a fake offset (just a rude approximation to remember the order),
used for sorting SHF_LINK_ORDER sections
(see resolveShfLinkOrder, compareByFilePosition).
There are 2 problems with such approach:
1. We currently change and reuse Size field as a value assigned. Changing size is
not good because leads to bugs. Currently, SIZEOF(.bss) for empty .bss returns 2
because we add two empty synthetic sections and increase size twice by 1.
(See PR37011: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37011)
2. Such approach simply does not work when --symbol-ordering-file is involved,
because processing of the ordering file might break the initial section order.
This fixes PR37011.

The intention of -gc-sections flag was to check
that discarded is not in the output. It should be
specified in the executable command line invocation
and also, the symbol must be global as local symbols
are anyways not printed.

This is for PR36716 and
this enables emitting STT_FILE symbols.
Output size affect is minor:
lld binary size changes from 52,883,408 to 52,949,400
clang binary size changes from 83,136,456 to 83,219,600

Some platforms interpret the pound sign as one character. Platforms that use
Python 2.x actually interpret it as two characters because in the Python 2.x
version of lit, the string used for the file name is a byte string and the pound
sign is two bytes.

Some system libraries have a lot of versioned symbols. When linking
scylla this brings the number of malloc calls from 49154 to 37944.

Currently there are a few odd things about the warning about symbols
that cannot be ordered. This patch fixes:
* When there is an undefined symbol that resolves to a shared file, we
were printing the location of the undefined reference.
* If there are multiple comdats, we were reporting them all.

With this, all output sections are created in one place. This will make
it simpler to implement merging of builtin sections.

This is similar to r329219, but for the entire section. Like r329219 I
don't expect this to have any real impact, it is just more consistent
and simpler.

Since InputGlobal makes a copy of a given object, we can use a temporary
object allocated on the stack here.

Previously, "size" column is 9 characters long which is too long
at least for 32-bit (because at maximum it needs 8 columns). This
patch make it one column shorter than before. That's also a reasonable
default for 64-bit.

As was mentioned in comments for D45158,
isPicRel's name does not make much sense,
because what this method does is checks if
we need to create the dynamic relocation or not.
Instead of renaming it to something different,
we can 'isPicRel' completely.
We can reuse the getDynRel method.
They are logically very close, getDynRel can just return
R_*_NONE in case no dynamic relocation should be produced
and that would simplify things and avoid functionality
correlation/duplication with 'isPicRel'.
The patch does this change.

Currently, LLD print symbol assignment commands to the map file,
but it does not do that for assignments that are outside of the section
descriptions. Such assignments can affect the layout though.
The patch implements the following:
* Teaches LLD to print symbol assignments outside of section declaration.
* Teaches LLD to print PROVIDE/HIDDEN/PROVIDE hidden commands.
In case when symbol is not provided, nothing will be printed.

Currently, LLD prints VA, but not LMA in a map file.
It seems can be useful to print both to reveal layout
details and patch implements it.

One place where this seems to matter is to make sure the .rsrc section comes
after .text. The Win32 UpdateResource() function can change the contents of
.rsrc. It will move the sections that come after, but if .text gets moved, the
entry point header will not get updated and the executable breaks. This was
found by a test in Chromium.

We were ignoring the addend if the piece was dead. I don't expect this
to make a difference in any real world situations, but it is simpler
anyway.

isPicRel is used to check if we want to create the dynamic relocations.
Not all of the dynamic relocations we create are passing through this
check, but those that are, probably better be whitelisted.

In the lld perf builder r328686 had a negative impact in
stalled-cycles-frontend. Somehow that stat is not showing on my
machine, but the attached patch shows an improvement on cache-misses,
which is probably a reasonable proxy.
My working theory is that given a large input the pieces vector is out
of cache by the time initOffsetMap runs.
Both finalizeContents implementation have a convenient location for
initializing the OffsetMap, so this seems the best solution.
