When two local symbols (think: file-scope static functions, or functions in
unnamed namespaces) with the same name in two different translation units
both needed thunks, ld64.lld previously created external thunks for both
of them. These thunks ended up with the same name, leading to a duplicate
symbol error for the thunk symbols.
Instead, give thunks for local symbols local visibility.
(Hitting this requires a jump to a local symbol from over 128 MiB away.
It's unlikely that a single .o file is 128 MiB large, but with ICF
you can end up with a situation where the local symbol is ICF'd with
a symbol in a separate translation unit. And that can introduce a
large enough jump to require a thunk.)

D86142 introduced --fortran-common and defaulted it to true (matching GNU ld
but deviates from gold/macOS ld64). The default state was motivated by transparently
supporting some FORTRAN 77 programs (Fortran 90 deprecated common blocks).
Now I think it again. I believe we made a mistake to change the default:
* this is a weird and legacy rule, though the breakage is very small
* --fortran-common introduced complexity to parallel symbol resolution and will slow down it
* --fortran-common more likely causes issues when users mix COMMON and
STB_GLOBAL definitions (see https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/48570 and
https://maskray.me/blog/2022-02-06-all-about-common-symbols).
I have seen several issues in our internal projects and Android.
On the other hand, --no-fortran-common is safer since
COMMON/STB_GLOBAL have the same semantics related to archive member extraction.
Therefore I think we should switch back, not punishing the common uage.
A platform wanting --fortran-common can implement ld.lld as a shell script
wrapper around `lld -flavor gnu --fortran-common "$@"`.

Two code paths may reach the EHFrame case in SectionBase::getOffset:
* .eh_frame reference
* relocation copy for --emit-relocs
The first may be used by clang_rt.crtbegin.o and GCC crtbeginT.o to get the
start address of the output .eh_frame. The relocation has an offset of 0 or
(x86-64 PC-relative leaq for clang_rt.crtbegin.o) -4. The current code just
returns `offset`, which handles this case well.
The second is related to InputSection::copyRelocations on .eh_frame (used by
--emit-relocs). .eh_frame pieces may be dropped due to GC/ICF, so we should
convert the input offset to the output offset. Use the same way as
MergeInputSection with a special case handling outSecOff==-1 for an invalid

CLANG_TOOLS_DIR holds the the current bin/ directory, maybe with a %(build_mode)
placeholder. It is used to add the just-built binaries to $PATH for lit tests.
In most cases it equals LLVM_TOOLS_DIR, which is used for the same purpose.
But for a standalone build of clang, CLANG_TOOLS_DIR points at the build tree
and LLVM_TOOLS_DIR points at the provided LLVM binaries.
Currently CLANG_TOOLS_DIR is set in clang/test/, clang-tools-extra/test/, and
other things always built with clang. This is a few cryptic lines of CMake in
each place. Meanwhile LLVM_TOOLS_DIR is provided by configure_site_lit_cfg().
This patch moves CLANG_TOOLS_DIR to configure_site_lit_cfg() and renames it:
- there's nothing clang-specific about the value
- it will also replace LLD_TOOLS_DIR, LLDB_TOOLS_DIR etc (not in this patch)
It also defines CURRENT_LIBS_DIR. While I removed the last usage of
CLANG_LIBS_DIR in e4cab4e24d, there are LLD_LIBS_DIR usages etc that
may be live, and I'd like to mechanically update them in a followup patch.

Previously, we aligned every cstring to 16 bytes as a temporary hack to
deal with https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/50135. However, it
was highly wasteful in terms of binary size.
To recap, in contrast to ELF, which puts strings that need different
alignments into different sections, `clang`'s Mach-O backend puts them
all in one section. Strings that need to be aligned have the .p2align
directive emitted before them, which simply translates into zero padding
in the object file. In other words, we have to infer the alignment of
the cstrings from their addresses.
We differ slightly from ld64 in how we've chosen to align these
cstrings. Both LLD and ld64 preserve the number of trailing zeros in
each cstring's address in the input object files. When deduplicating
identical cstrings, both linkers pick the cstring whose address has more
trailing zeros, and preserve the alignment of that address in the final
binary. However, ld64 goes a step further and also preserves the offset
of the cstring from the last section-aligned address. I.e. if a cstring
is at offset 18 in the input, with a section alignment of 16, then both
LLD and ld64 will ensure the final address is 2-byte aligned (since
`18 == 16 + 2`). But ld64 will also ensure that the final address is of
the form 16 * k + 2 for some k (which implies 2-byte alignment).
Note that ld64's heuristic means that a dedup'ed cstring's final address is
dependent on the order of the input object files. E.g. if in addition to the
cstring at offset 18 above, we have a duplicate one in another file with a
`.cstring` section alignment of 2 and an offset of zero, then ld64 will pick
the cstring from the object file earlier on the command line (since both have
the same number of trailing zeros in their address). So the final cstring may
either be at some address `16 * k + 2` or at some address `2 * k`.
I've opted not to follow this behavior primarily for implementation
simplicity, and secondarily to save a few more bytes. It's not clear to me
that preserving the section alignment + offset is ever necessary, and there
are many cases that are clearly redundant. In particular, if an x86_64 object
file contains some strings that are accessed via SIMD instructions, then the
.cstring section in the object file will be 16-byte-aligned (since SIMD
requires its operand addresses to be 16-byte aligned). However, there will
typically also be other cstrings in the same file that aren't used via SIMD
and don't need this alignment. They will be emitted at some arbitrary address
`A`, but ld64 will treat them as being 16-byte aligned with an offset of
`16 % A`.
I have verified that the two repros in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/50135
work well with the new alignment behavior.

`__cfstring` has embedded addends that foil ICF's hashing / equality

properly dedup CFStrings, we create a mutable copy of the CFString and
zero out the embedded addends before performing any hashing / equality
checks.
(We did in fact have a partial implementation of CFString deduplication
already. However, it only worked when the cstrings they point to are at
identical offsets in their object files.)
I anticipate this approach can be extended to other similar
statically-allocated struct sections in the future.
In addition, we previously treated all references with differing addends
as unequal. This is not true when the references are to literals:
different addends may point to the same literal in the output binary. In

*: Technically it does change the hash value since stubsHelperIndex is

values are the same at when ICF runs, they don't add any useful

This is debug code that is disabled by default. It'll provide a easy way

If we fix https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/54184, the
`dyld_stub_binder` symbol will get included in every output dylib. This
would cause the addresses of the other symbols to shift, breaking the
test as it currently stands. Let's make the test more flexible.

So far, we sort all discardable sections at the end, with only some
extra logic to make sure that the .reloc section is at the start
of that group of sections. But if there are other discardable
sections, other than .reloc, they must also be ordered before
.debug_* sections, to avoid leaving gaps if the executable is
stripped.
(Stripping executables doesn't remove all discardable sections,
only the ones named .debug_*).
Rust binaries seem to include a .rmeta section, which is marked
discardable. This fixes stripping such binaries if built with
dwarf debug info included.
This fixes issues observed in MSYS2 in
https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/pull/10555.

This does tail merging (and deduplication) of the strings.
On a statically linked clang.exe, this shrinks the ~17 MB string
table by around 0.5 MB. This adds ~160 ms to the linking time
which originally was around 950 ms.
For cases where `-debug:symtab` or `-debug:dwarf` isn't set, the
string table is only used for long section names, where this
shouldn't make any difference at all.

The previous code used an unbounded sprintf, which in theory can
overflow, writing either the null terminator or the last digits
into the next struct member.
In practice, in LLD, all long section names are written sequentially
first at the start of the string table, followed by all the long
symbol names. Due to this, even if the total string table would
end up large, the long section names have fairly short offsets,
which is why this hasn't been an issue in practice.
I don't think it's worth trying to write a test that produces an
executable with enough long section names to make the section names
themselves exceed 10^6 bytes, which is currently necessary to trigger
faults with the previous form.
