Versions can be assigned to symbols in two different ways.
One is the usual version scripts, and the other is special
symbol suffix '@'. If a symbol contains '@', the string after
that is considered to specify a version name.
Previously, we look for '@' for all symbols.
Anything that works on every symbol can be expensive because
the linker has to handle a lot of symbols. The search for '@'
was not an exception.
In this patch, I made two optimizations.
The first optimization is to handle '@' only when at least one
version is defined. If no versions are defined, no versions can
be assigned to any symbols, so it's waste of time to search for '@'.
The second optimization is to scan only suffixes of symbol names
instead of entire symbol names. Symbol names can be very long, but
symbol versions are usually short, so scanning entire symbol names
is waste of time, too.
There are some error cases which we no longer be able to detect
with this patch. I don't think it's a major drawback because they
are minor errors. Speed is more important.
This change improves LLD with debug info self-link time from
6.6993 seconds to 6.3426 seconds (or -5.3%).

Previously, each subclass of SymbolBody had a pointer to a source
file from which it was created. So, there was no single way to get
a source file for a symbol. We had getSourceFile<ELFT>(), but the
function was a bit inconvenient as it's a template.
This patch makes SymbolBody have a pointer to a source file.
If a symbol is not created from a file, the pointer has a nullptr.

The identifier `Version` was used too often in the code to handle
symbol versions. The struct that contains version definitions is
named `Version`. Local variables for version ID are named `Version`.
Local varaible for version string are named `Version`.
This patch give them different names.
llvm-svn: 275673
Previously, Verdefs and Verdauxs are separated in the section.
The new layout is easier to write as we do not have to maintain

In a linker script, `.` is a special symbol indicating a counter.
Previously, we had two expression types, ExprKind and SymbolAssignmentKind
for `.` and all the other symbol names, respectively. But we could merge
them because the former is a special case of the latter.

Previously, it checked for the EC parameter and set HasError
only when there was an error. But in most places we called

ELF spec says that alignment of 0 is equivalent to 1.
Previously, we arbitrary set to 0 or 1, but always setting to 1

r275301 made .got section be aligned on Target->GotEntrySize,
so GotEntrySize must have been initialized. We didn't initialize
it for AMDGPU.
llvm-svn: 275373
Patch by H.J Lu.
For x86-64 psABI, the entry size of .got and .got.plt sections is 8
bytes for both LP64 and ILP32. Add GotEntrySize and GotPltEntrySize
to ELF target instead of using size of ELFT::uint. Now we can generate
a simple working x32 executable.

Creating sections on linkerscript side requires some methods
that can be reused if are exported from writer.
Patch implements that change.
Differential revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D20104
llvm-svn: 275162
Since linkerscript should create sections by itself
(if SECTIONS command is present),
then we might want to reuse the OutputSectionFactory (D19976 already do that now),
so this patch moves it out from writer cpp file for that purpose.

Symbol's dtors are not called because they are allocated using

Generalise the Mips LA25 Thunk code and implement ARM and Thumb
interworking Thunks.
- Introduce a new module Thunks.cpp to store the Target Specific Thunk
implementations.
- DefinedRegular and Shared have a ThunkData field to record Thunk.
- A Target can have more than one type of Thunk.
- Support PC-relative calls to Thunks.
- Support Thunks to PLT entries.
- Existing Mips LA25 Thunk code integrated.
- Support for ARMv7A interworking Thunks.
Limitations:
- Only one Thunk per SymbolBody, this is sufficient for all currently
implemented Thunks.
- ARM thunks assume presence of V6T2 MOVT and MOVW instructions.

When building executable usually version script is absent.
Before this patch error was shown in the case when
symbol name contained version and there was no script to match it.
Instead of error out patch allows
to create new version declaration in this case and use it.
gnu linkers do the same.
That is PR28359.

Symbols.cpp contains functions to handle ELF symbols.
demangle() function is essentially a function to work on a
string rather than on an ELF symbol. So Strings.cpp is a
better place to put that function.
This change also make demangle to demangle symbols unconditionally.
Previously, it demangled symbols only when Config->Demangle is true.

Previously we had incorrect logic here. Imagine we would have the next script:
LIBSAMPLE_1.0
{
global:
a_2;
local:
*;
};
LIBSAMPLE_2.0
{
global:
a*;
};
According to previous logic it would assign version 1 to a_2 and then
would try to reassign it to version 2 because of applying wildcard a*.
And show a warning about that.
Generally Ian Lance Tailor wrote about next rules that should be applied:
(http://www.airs.com/blog/archives/300)
Here are the current rules for gold:
"If there is an exact match for the mangled name, we use it. If there is more than one exact match, we give a warning, and we use the first tag in the script which matches. If a symbol has an exact match as both global and local for the same version tag, we give an error.
Otherwise, we look for an extern C++ or an extern Java exact match. If we find an exact match, we use it. If there is more than one exact match, we give a warning, and we use the first tag in the script which matches. If a symbol has an exact match as both global and local for the same version tag, we give an error.
Otherwise, we look through the wildcard patterns, ignoring “*” patterns. We look through the version tags in reverse order. For each version tag, we look through the global patterns and then the local patterns. We use the first match we find (i.e., the last matching version tag in the file).
Otherwise, we use the “*” pattern if there is one. We give a warning if there are multiple “*” patterns."
Patch makes wildcard matching to be in revered order and to follow after the regular naming matching.

This is PR28358
According to
https://www.akkadia.org/drepper/dsohowto.pdf
"The fourth point, the VERS 1.0 version being referred to in the VERS 2.0 definition, is not really important in symbol versioning. It marks the predecessor relationship of the two versions and it is done to maintain the similar- ities with Solaris’ internal versioning. It does not cause any problem it might in fact be useful to a human reader so predecessors should always be mentioned."
