The comment only made sense a long time ago, when --thinlto-jobs was
tied with --lto-partitions. That was changed in r283817, but the test
wasn't updated at the same time. This patch does so.

Rather than using a loop to compare symbol RVAs to the starting RVAs of
sections to determine which section a symbol belongs to, just get the
output section of a symbol directly via its chunk, and bail if the
symbol doesn't have an output section, which avoids having to hardcode
logic for handling dead symbols, CodeView symbols, etc. This was
suggested by Reid Kleckner; thank you.
This also fixes writing out symbol tables in the presence of RVA table
input sections (e.g. .sxdata and .gfids). Such sections aren't written
to the output file directly, so their RVA is 0, and the loop would thus
fail to find an output section for them, resulting in a segfault. Extend
some existing tests to cover this case.
Fixes PR37584.

PPC64 maintains a compiler managed got in the .toc section. When accessing a
global variable through got-indirect access, a .toc entry is created for the
variable. The relocation for the got-indirect access will refer to the .toc
section rather than the symbol that is actually accessed. The .toc entry
contains the address of the global variable. We evaluate the offset from
r2 (which is the TOC base) to the address of the toc entry for the global
variable. Currently, the .toc is not near the .got. This causes errors because
the offset from r2 to the toc section is too large. The linker needs to add
all the .toc input sections to the .got output section, merging the compiler
managed got with the linker got. This ensures that the offsets from the TOC
base to the toc entries are not too large.
This patch puts the .toc section right after the .got section.

A user program may enumerate sections named with a C identifier using
__start_* and __stop_* symbols. We cannot ICF any such sections because
that could change program semantics.

Note that this doesn't do the right thing in the case where there is

before ICF to get the correct behaviour here.

When a symbol is GC'd it can still be references by relocations
in the debug sections, but such symbols are not assigned virtual
addresses.
This change adds a new global data symbol which gets GC'd but
should still appears in the output debug info, albeit with a 0
address.

This change adds the ability for lld to remove LEB padding from
code section. This effectively shrinks the size of the resulting
binary in proportion to the number of code relocations.
Since there will be a performance cost this is currently only active for
-O1 and above. Some toolchains may instead want to perform this
compression as a post linker step (for example running a binary through
binaryen will automatically compress these values).
I imagine we might want to make this the default in the future.

Previously we emitted 20-byte SHA1 hashes. This is overkill
for identifying debug info records, and has the negative side
effect of making object files bigger and links slower. By
using only the last 8 bytes of a SHA1, we get smaller object
files and ~10% faster links.
This modifies the format of the .debug$H section by adding a new
value for the hash algorithm field, so that the linker will still
work when its object files have an old format.

The prefix includes type kind, which is important to preserve. Two
different type leafs can easily have the same interior record contents
as another type.
We ran into this issue in PR37492 where a bitfield type record collided
with a const modifier record. Their contents were bitwise identical, but
their kinds were different.

Previously we would always write a hash of the binary into the
PE file, for reproducible builds. This breaks AppCompat, which
is a feature of Windows that relies on the timestamp in the PE
header being set to a real value (or at the very least, a value
that satisfies certain properties).
To address this, we put the old behavior of writing the hash
behind the /Brepro flag, which mimics MSVC linker behavior. We
also match MSVC default behavior, which is to write an actual
timestamp to the PE header. Finally, we add the /TIMESTAMP
option (an lld extension) so that the user can specify the exact
value to be used in case he/she manually constructs a value which
is both reproducible and satisfies AppCompat.

Currently, LLD marks all non-allocatable sections except SHF_REL[A] as Live
when doing GC.
This can be a reason of the crash when SHF_LINK_ORDER sections
are involved, because their parents can be dead.
We should do GC for them correctly. The patch implements it.

The --keep-unique <symbol> option is taken from gold. The intention is that
<symbol> will be prevented from being folded by ICF. Although not
specifically mentioned in the documentation <symbol> only matches
global symbols, with a warning if the symbol is not found.
The implementation finds the Section defining <symbol> and removes it from

If a symbol with an undefined version in a DSO is not going to be
exported into the dynamic symbol table then do not give an error message
for the missing version. This can happen with the --exclude-libs option
which implicitly gives all symbols in a static library the local version.
This matches the behavior of ld.gold and is exploited by the Bionic
