Specifically, libwidevinecdm.so in Chrome has such bad symbol.
It seems the BFD linker handles them as local symbols, so instead
of inserting them to the symbol table, we should skip them too.

By using an index instead of a pointer for verdef we can put the index
next to the alignment field. This uses the otherwise wasted area and

This includes a fix to mark copy reloc aliases as used.
Original message:
[ELF] Do not keep symbols if they referenced only from discarded sections.
This patch also ensures that in case of "--as-needed" is used,
DT_NEEDED entries are not created if they are required only by
these eliminated symbols.
llvm-svn: 319215
Currently we mark every shared symbol as STB_WEAK.
That is a hack to make it easy to decide when a .so is needed or not
because of a reference to a given symbol.
That hack leaks when we create copy relocations as shown by the update
to relocation-copy-alias.s.
This patch stores the original binding when we first read a shared
symbol. We still have to update the binding to weak if we see a weak
undef, but I find the logic easier to read where it is now.

SymbolBody and Symbol were separated classes due to a historical reason.
Symbol used to be a pointer to a SymbolBody, and the relationship
between Symbol and SymbolBody was n:1.
r2681780 changed that. Since that patch, SymbolBody and Symbol are
allocated next to each other to improve memory locality, and they have
1:1 relationship now. So, the separation of Symbol and SymbolBody no
longer makes sense.
This patch merges them into one class. In order to avoid updating too
many places, I chose SymbolBody as a unified name. I'll rename it Symbol
in a follow-up patch.

DSO is short for dynamic shared object, so the function name was a
little confusing because it sounded like it didn't work when we were
a creating statically-linked executable or something.
What we mean by "DSO" here is the current output file that we are
creating. Thus the new name. Alternatively, we could call it the current
ELF module, but "module" is a overloaded word, so I avoided that.

The COFF linker and the ELF linker have long had similar but separate

implementations.

Before this patch we would copy foo into real_foo and wrap_foo into
foo. The net result is that __wrap_foo shows up twice in the symbol
table.
With this patch we:
* save a copy of __real_foo before copying foo.
* drop one of the __wrap_foo from the symbol table.
* if __real_foo was not undefined, add a *new* symbol with that content to
the symbol table.
The net result is that
Anything using foo now uses __wrap_foo
Anything using __real_foo now uses foo.
Anything using __wrap_foo still does.
And the symbol table has foo, __wrap_foo and __real_foo (if defined).
Which I think is the desired behavior.

SymbolTable::insert() is a hot path function. When linking a clang debug
build, the function is called 3.7 million times. The total amount of "Name"
string contents is 300 MiB. That means this `Name.find("@@")` scans almost
300 MiB of data. That's far from negligible.
StringRef::find(StringRef) uses a sophisticated algorithm, but the
function is slow for a short needle. This patch replaces it with
StringRef::find(char).
This patch alone speeds up a clang debug build link time by 0.5 seconds
from 8.2s to 7.7s. That's 6% speed up. It seems too good for this tiny

In order to keep track of symbol renaming, we used to have

Original commit message:
[ELF] - Handle symbols with default version early.
This fixes last testcase provided in PR28414.
In short issue is next: when we had X@@Version symbol in object A,
we did not resolve it to X early. Then when in another object B
we had reference to undefined X, symbol X from archive was fetched.
Since both archive and object A contains another symbol Z, duplicate
symbol definition was triggered as a result.

Imagine following script and code:

.global bar
bar:
.symver bar, foo@VER1
.global zed
zed:
.symver zed, foo@@VER2
We add foo@@VER2 as foo to symbol table, because have to resolve references to
foo for default symbols.
Later we are trying to assign symbol versions from script. For that we are searching for 'foo'
again. Here it is placed under VER1 and VER2 at the same time, we find it twice and trying to
set version again both times, hence LLD shows a warning.
Though sample code is correct: we have 2 different versions of foo.
Patch gives a symbol version extracted from name a priority over version set by script.

BSD's __progname symbol is defined in crt1.o and linked against main
executables. The libc expects that main executables export __progname
symbol via .dynsym sections. In order to handle this case, we scan
undefined symbols in DSOs and exported them by setting Sym->ExportDynamic
to true.
But it turned out that setting that variable is not enough to make sure
that symbols are exported in all use cases. If a -dynamic-list option is
given, all symbols not explicitly mentioned in a version script are
hidden by default. That hides __progname symbol. This patch fixes the issue.
