we use that data structure to help us perform optimization passes that would allow
a more efficient encoding of bind opcodes. Currently, the functionality mirrors the

When they are invoked on object file before the final linking step with this new approach the symbol indices correctness is preserved.

lld currently only references dyld_stub_binder when it's needed.
ld64 always references it when libSystem is linked.
Match ld64.
The (somewhat lame) motivation is that `nm` on a binary without any
export writes a "no symbols" warning to stderr, and this change makes
it so that every binary in practice has at least a reference to
dyld_stub_binder, which suppresses that.
Every "real" output file will reference dyld_stub_binder, so most
of the time this shouldn't make much of a difference. And if you
really don't want to have this reference for whatever reason, you
can stop passing -lSystem, like you have to for ld64 anyways.
(After linking any dylib, we dump the exported list of symbols to
a txt file with `nm` and only relink downstream deps if that txt
file changes. A nicer fix is to make lld optionally write .tbd files
with the public interface of a linked dylib and use that instead,
but for now the txt files are what we do.)

This to protect against non-sensical instruction sequences being assembled,
which would either cause asserts/crashes further down, or a Wasm module being output that doesn't validate.
Unlike a validator, this type checker is able to give type-errors as part of the parsing process, which makes the assembler much friendlier to be used by humans writing manual input.
Because the MC system is single pass (instructions aren't even stored in MC format, they are directly output) the type checker has to be single pass as well, which means that from now on .globaltype and .functype decls must come before their use. An extra pass is added to Codegen to collect information for this purpose, since AsmPrinter is normally single pass / streaming as well, and would otherwise generate this information on the fly.
A `-no-type-check` flag was added to llvm-mc (and any other tools that take asm input) that surpresses type errors, as a quick escape hatch for tests that were not intended to be type correct.
This is a first version of the type checker that ignores control flow, i.e. it checks that types are correct along the linear path, but not the branch path. This will still catch most errors. Branch checking could be added in the future.

There used to be many cases where addends for Elf_Rel were not emitted in

LLD on 32-bit Windows would frequently fail on large projects with
an exception "thread constructor failed: Exec format error". The stack
trace pointed to this usage of std::async, and looking at the

std::launch::async results in the immediate creation of a new thread
for every call. This could result in a potentially unbounded number
of threads, depending on the number of input files. This seems to
be hitting some limit in 32-bit Windows host.
I took the easy route, and only use threads on 64-bit Windows, not all

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:

Two bugs:
1. This tries to take the address of the last symbol plus the length
of the last symbol. However, the sorted vector is cuPtrVector,
not cuVector. Also, cuPtrVector has tombstone values removed
and cuVector doesn't. If there was a stripped value at the end,
the "last" element's value was UINT64_MAX, which meant the
sentinel value was one less than the length of that "last"
dead symbol.
2. We have to subtract in.header->addr. For 64-bit binaries that's
(1 << 32) and functionAddress is 32-bit so this is a no-op, but
for 32-bit binaries the sentinel's value was too large.
I believe this has no effect in practice since the first-level
binary search code in libunwind (in UnwindCursor.hpp) does:
uint32_t low = 0;
uint32_t high = sectionHeader.indexCount();
uint32_t last = high - 1;
while (low < high) {
uint32_t mid = (low + high) / 2;
if ((mid == last) ||
(topIndex.functionOffset(mid + 1) > targetFunctionOffset)) {
low = mid;
break;
} else {
low = mid + 1;
}
So the address of the last entry in the first-level table isn't really
checked -- except for the very end, but the check against `last` means
we just run the loop once more than necessary. But it makes `unwinddump` output
look less confusing, and it's what it looks was the intention here.
(No test since I can't think of a way to make FileCheck check that one
number is larger than another.)

If linking directly against a DLL without an import library, the
DLL export symbols might not contain stdcall decorations.
If we have an undefined symbol with decoration, and we happen to have
a matching undecorated symbol (which either is lazy and can be loaded,
or already defined), then alias it against that instead.
This matches what's done in reverse, when we have a def file
declaring to export a symbol without decoration, but we only have
a defined decorated symbol. In that case we do a fuzzy match
(SymbolTable::findMangle). This case is more straightforward; if we
have a decorated undefined symbol, just strip the decoration and look
for the corresponding undecorated symbol name.
Add warnings and options for either silencing the warning or disabling
the whole feature, corresponding to how ld.bfd does it.
(This feature works for any symbol decoration mismatch, not only when
linking against a DLL directly; ld.bfd also tolerates it anywhere,
and also fixes up mismatches in the other direction, like
SymbolTable::findMangle, for any symbol, not only exports. But in
practice, at least for lld, it would primarily end up used for linking
against DLLs.)

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D104531
GNU ld.bfd supports linking directly against DLLs without using an
import library, and some projects have picked up on this habit.
(There's no one single unsurmountable issue with using import
libraries, but this is a regularly surfacing missing feature.)
As long as one is linking by name (instead of by ordinal), the DLL
export table contains most of the information needed. (One can
inspect what section a symbol points at, to see if it's a function
or data symbol. The practical implementation of this loops over all
sections for each symbol, but as long as they're not very many, that
should hopefully be tolerable performance wise.)
One exception where the information in the DLL isn't entirely enough
is on i386 with stdcall functions; depending on how they're done,
the exported function name can be a plain undecorated name, while
the import library would contain the full decorated symbol name. This
issue is addressed separately in a different patch.
This is implemented mimicing the structure of a regular import library,
with one InputFile corresponding to the static archive that just adds
lazy symbols, which then are fetched when they are needed. When such
a symbol is fetched, we synthesize a coff_import_header structure
in memory and create a regular ImportFile out of it.
The implementation could be even smaller by just creating ImportFiles
for every symbol available immediately, but that would have the
drawback of actually ending up importing all symbols unless running
with GC enabled (and mingw mode defaults to having it disabled for
historical reasons).

each literal is the same size). Symbols can only occur at one of those

This is a pretty big refactoring diff, so here are the motivations:
Previously, ICF ran after scanRelocations(), where we emitting
bind/rebase opcodes etc. So we had a bunch of redundant leftovers after
ICF. Having ICF run before Writer seems like a better design, and is
what LLD-ELF does, so this diff refactors it accordingly.
However, ICF had two dependencies on things occurring in Writer: 1) it
needs literals to be deduplicated beforehand and 2) it needs to know
which functions have unwind info, which was being handled by
`UnwindInfoSection::prepareRelocations()`.
In order to do literal deduplication earlier, we need to add literal
input sections to their corresponding output sections. So instead of
putting all input sections into the big `inputSections` vector, and then
filtering them by type later on, I've changed things so that literal
sections get added directly to their output sections during the 'gather'
phase. Likewise for compact unwind sections -- they get added directly
to the UnwindInfoSection now. This latter change is not strictly
necessary, but makes it easier for ICF to determine which functions have
unwind info.
Adding literal sections directly to their output sections means that we
can no longer determine `inputOrder` from iterating over
`inputSections`. Instead, we store that order explicitly on
InputSection. Bloating the size of InputSection for this purpose would
be unfortunate -- but LLD-ELF has already solved this problem: it reuses
`outSecOff` to store this order value.
One downside of this refactor is that we now make an additional pass
over the unwind info relocations to figure out which functions have
unwind info, since want to know that before `processRelocations()`. I've
made sure to run that extra loop only if ICF is enabled, so there should
be no overhead in non-optimizing runs of the linker.
The upside of all this is that the `inputSections` vector now contains
only ConcatInputSections that are destined for ConcatOutputSections, so
we can clean up a bunch of code that just existed to filter out other
elements from that vector.
I will test for the lack of redundant binds/rebases in the upcoming
cfstring deduplication diff. While binds/rebases can also happen in the
regular `.text` section, they're more common in `.data` sections, so it
seems more natural to test it that way.

The two different thread_local_regular sections (__thread_data and
more_thread_data) had nondeterminstic ordering for two reasons:
1. https://reviews.llvm.org/D102972 changed concatOutputSections
from MapVector to DenseMap, so when we iterate it to make
output segments, we would add the two sections to the __DATA
output segment in nondeterministic order.
2. The same change also moved the two stable_sort()s for segments
and sections to sort(). Since sections with assigned priority
(such as TLV data) have the same priority for all sections,
this is incorrect -- we must use stable_sort() so that the
initial (input-order-based) order remains.
As a side effect, we now (deterministically) put the __common
section in front of __bss (while previously we happened to
put it after it). (__common and __bss are both zerofill so
both have order INT_MAX, but common symbols are added to
inputSections before normal sections are collected.)

Currently when .llvm.call-graph-profile is created by llvm it explicitly encodes the symbol indices. This section is basically a black box for post processing tools. For example, if we run strip -s on the object files the symbol table changes, but indices in that section do not. In non-visible behavior indices point to wrong symbols. The visible behavior indices point outside of Symbol table: "invalid symbol index".
This patch changes the format by using R_*_NONE relocations to indicate the from/to symbols. The Frequency (Weight) will still be in the .llvm.call-graph-profile, but symbol information will be in relocation section. In LLD information from both sections is used to reconstruct call graph profile. Relocations themselves will never be applied.
With this approach post processing tools that handle relocations correctly work for this section also. Tools can add/remove symbols and as long as they handle relocation sections with this approach information stays correct.

For all the cases we care about, `outSecFileOff` is the same as

at the end of a segment, the only sections where the two values deviate
are zerofill sections themselves. And we never actually query the
outSecFileOff of zerofill sections.
As for `getFileOffset()`, the only place it was being used was to
calculate the offset of the entry symbol. However, we can compute that
value by just taking the difference between the address of the entry
symbol and the address of the Mach-O header. In fact, this appears to be
what ld64 itself does. This difference is the same as the file offset as
long as there are no intervening zerofill sections, but since `__text`

An `OVERWRITE_SECTIONS` command is a `SECTIONS` variant which contains several
output section descriptions. The output sections do not have specify an order.
Similar to `INSERT [BEFORE|AFTER]`, `LinkerScript::hasSectionsCommand` is not
set, so the built-in rules (see `docs/ELF/linker_script.rst`) still apply.
`OVERWRITE_SECTIONS` can be more convenient than `INSERT` because it does not
need an anchor section.
The initial syntax is intentionally narrow to facilitate backward compatible
extensions in the future. Symbol assignments cannot be used.
This feature is versatile. To list a few usage:
* Use `section : { KEEP(...) }` to retain input sections under GC
* Define encapsulation symbols (start/end) for an output section
* Use `section : ALIGN(...) : { ... }` to overalign an output section (similar to ld64 `-sectalign`)
When an output section is specified by both `OVERWRITE_SECTIONS` and
`INSERT`, `INSERT` is processed after overwrite sections. To make this work,
this patch changes `InsertCommand` to use name based matching instead of pointer
based matching. (This may cause a difference when `INSERT` moves one output
section more than once. Such duplicate commands should not be used in practice
(seems that in GNU ld the output sections may just disappear).)
A linker script can be used without -T/--script. The traditional `SECTIONS`
commands are concatenated, so a wrong rule can be more noticeable from the
section order. This feature if misused can be less noticeable, just like
`INSERT`.

In contrast with ELF, the Mach-O format does not support variable-length

in length. LLD-ELF dedups its literals via sorting + uniq'ing, but since
we don't need to worry about overly-long values, we should be able to do
a faster job by just hashing.
That said, the implementation right now is far from optimal, because we
add to those hashtables serially. To parallelize this, we'll need a

In the interests of disabling misc-no-recursion across LLVM (this seems
like a stylistic choice that is not consistent with LLVM's
style/development approach) this NFC preliminary change adjusts all the
.clang-tidy files to inherit from their parents as much as possible.
This change specifically preserves all the quirks of the current configs
in order to make it easier to review as NFC.
I validatad the change is NFC as follows:
for X in `cat ../files.txt`;
do
mkdir -p ../tmp/$(dirname $X)
touch $(dirname $X)/blaikie.cpp
clang-tidy -dump-config $(dirname $X)/blaikie.cpp > ../tmp/$(dirname $X)/after
rm $(dirname $X)/blaikie.cpp
done
(similarly for the "before" state, without this patch applied)
for X in `cat ../files.txt`;
do
echo $X
diff \
../tmp/$(dirname $X)/before \
<(cat ../tmp/$(dirname $X)/after \

| sed -e "s/,-misc-no-recursion\(.*\),misc-no-recursion/\1/" \
| sed -e "s/,-clang-diagnostic-\*\(.*\),clang-diagnostic-\*/\1/")
done
(using sed to strip some add/remove pairs to reduce the diff and make it easier to read)
The resulting report is:

(side note, the .clang-tidy file in parallel-libs is broken and crashes
clang-tidy because it uses "lowerCase" as the style instead of "lower_case" -
so I'll deal with that separately)

It causes libraries whose names start with "swift" to be force-loaded.
Note that unlike the more general `-force_load`, this flag only applies
to libraries specified via LC_LINKER_OPTIONS, and not those passed on
the command-line. This is what ld64 does.

Our implementation draws heavily from LLD-ELF's, which in turn delegates
its string deduplication to llvm-mc's StringTableBuilder. The messiness of
this diff is largely due to the fact that we've previously assumed that
all InputSections get concatenated together to form the output. This is
no longer true with CStringInputSections, which split their contents into
StringPieces. StringPieces are much more lightweight than InputSections,
which is important as we create a lot of them. They may also overlap in
the output, which makes it possible for strings to be tail-merged. In
fact, the initial version of this diff implemented tail merging, but
I've dropped it for reasons I'll explain later.
**Alignment Issues**
Mergeable cstring literals are found under the `__TEXT,__cstring`
section. 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.
I *think* ld64 extracts the desired per-string alignment from this data
by preserving each string's offset from the last section-aligned
address. I'm not entirely certain since it doesn't seem consistent about
doing this; but perhaps this can be chalked up to cases where ld64 has
to deduplicate strings with different offset/alignment combos -- it
seems to pick one of their alignments to preserve. This doesn't seem
correct in general; we can in fact can induce ld64 to produce a crashing
binary just by linking in an additional object file that only contains
cstrings and no code. See PR50563 for details.
Moreover, this scheme seems rather inefficient: since unaligned and
aligned strings are all put in the same section, which has a single
alignment value, it doesn't seem possible to tell whether a given string
doesn't have any alignment requirements. Preserving offset+alignments
for strings that don't need it is wasteful.
In practice, the crashes seen so far seem to stem from x86_64 SIMD
operations on cstrings. X86_64 requires SIMD accesses to be
16-byte-aligned. So for now, I'm thinking of just aligning all strings
to 16 bytes on x86_64. This is indeed wasteful, but implementation-wise
it's simpler than preserving per-string alignment+offsets. It also
avoids the aforementioned crash after deduplication of
differently-aligned strings. Finally, the overhead is not huge: using
16-byte alignment (vs no alignment) is only a 0.5% size overhead when
linking chromium_framework.
With these alignment requirements, it doesn't make sense to attempt tail
merging -- most strings will not be eligible since their overlaps aren't
likely to start at a 16-byte boundary. Tail-merging (with alignment) for
chromium_framework only improves size by 0.3%.
It's worth noting that LLD-ELF only does tail merging at `-O2`. By
default (at `-O1`), it just deduplicates w/o tail merging. @thakis has
also mentioned that they saw it regress compressed size in some cases
and therefore turned it off. `ld64` does not seem to do tail merging at
all.
**Performance Numbers**
CString deduplication reduces chromium_framework from 250MB to 242MB, or
about a 3.2% reduction.

As expected, cstring merging incurs some non-trivial overhead.
When passing `--no-literal-merge`, it seems that performance is the
same, i.e. the refactoring in this diff didn't cost us.

When a library "host"'s reexports change their installName with
`$ld$os10.11$install_name$host`, we used to write a load command for "host" but
write the version numbers of the reexport instead of "host". This fixes that.
I first thought that the rule is to take the version numbers from the library
that originally had that install name (implemented in D103819), but that's not
what ld64 seems to be doing: It takes the version number from the first dylib
with that install name it loads, and it loads the reexporting library before
the reexports. We already did most of that, we just added reexports before the
reexporter. After this change, we add the reexporter before the reexports.
Addresses https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49800#c11 part 1.
(ld64 seems to add reexports after processing _all_ files on the command line,
while we add them right after the reexporter. For the common case of reexport +
$ld$ symbol changing back to the exporter name, this doesn't make a difference,
but you can construct a case where it does. I expect this to not make a
difference in practice though.)

This interacts with many parts of the linker. I tried to add test coverage
for all added `isLive()` checks, so that some test will fail if any of them
is removed. I checked that the test expectations for the most part match
ld64's behavior (except for live-support-iterations.s, see the comment
in the test). Interacts with:
- debug info
- export tries
- import opcodes
- flags like -exported_symbol(s_list)
- -U / dynamic_lookup
- mod_init_funcs, mod_term_funcs
- weak symbol handling
- unwind info
- stubs
- map files
- -sectcreate
- undefined, dylib, common, defined (both absolute and normal) symbols
It's possible it interacts with more features I didn't think of,
of course.
I also did some manual testing:
- check-llvm check-clang check-lld work with lld with this patch
as host linker and -dead_strip enabled
- Chromium still starts
- Chromium's base_unittests still pass, including unwind tests
Implemenation-wise, this is InputSection-based, so it'll work for
object files with .subsections_via_symbols (which includes all
object files generated by clang). I first based this on the COFF
implementation, but later realized that things are more similar to ELF.
I think it'd be good to refactor MarkLive.cpp to look more like the ELF
part at some point, but I'd like to get a working state checked in first.
Mechanical parts:
- Rename canOmitFromOutput to wasCoalesced (no behavior change)
since it really is for weak coalesced symbols
- Add noDeadStrip to Defined, corresponding to N_NO_DEAD_STRIP
(`.no_dead_strip` in asm)

In some cases, we end up with several distinct DylibFiles that
have the same install name. Only emit a single LC_LOAD_DYLIB in
those cases.
This happens in 3 cases I know of:
1. Some tbd files are symlinks. libpthread.tbd is a symlink against
libSystem.tbd for example, so `-lSystem -lpthread` loads
libSystem.tbd twice. We could (and maybe should) cache loaded
dylibs by realpath() to catch this.
2. Some tbd files are copies of each other. For example,
CFNetwork.framework/CFNetwork.tbd and
CFNetwork.framework/Versions/A/CFNetwork.tbd are two distinct
copies of the same file. The former is found by
`-framework CFNetwork` and the latter by the reexport in
CoreServices.tbd. We could conceivably catch this by
making `-framework` search look in `Versions/Current` instead
of in the root, and/or by using a content hash to cache
tbd files, but that's starting to sound complicated.
3. Magic $ld$ symbol processing can change the install name of
a dylib based on the target platform_version. Here, two
truly distinct dylibs can have the same install name.
So we need this code to deal with (3) anyways. Might as well use
it for 1 and 2, at least for now :)
With this (and D103430), clang-format links in the same dylibs
when linked with lld and ld64.

This omits load commands for unreferenced dylibs if:
- the dylib was loaded implicitly,
- it is marked MH_DEAD_STRIPPABLE_DYLIB
- or -dead_strip_dylibs is passed
This matches ld64.
Currently, the "is dylib referenced" state is computed before dead code
stripping and is not updated after dead code stripping. This too matches ld64.
We should do better here.
With this, clang-format linked with lld (like with ld64) no longer has
libobjc.A.dylib in `otool -L` output. (It was implicitly loaded as a reexport
of CoreFoundation.framework, but it's not needed.)
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D103430
loadDylib() keeps a name->DylibFile cache, but it only writes
to the cache once the DylibFile constructor has completed.
So dylib loads done recursively from the DylibFile constructor
wouldn't use the cache.
Now, we load additional dylibs after writing to the cache,
which means the cache now gets used for dylibs loaded because
they're referenced from other dylibs.
Related to PR49514 and PR50101, but no dramatic behavior change in itself.
(Technically we no longer crash when a tbd file reexports itself,
but that doesn't happen in practice. We now accept it silently instead
of crashing; ld64 has a diag for the reexport cycle.)

Before this patch, the maximum size of the GHASH table was 2^31 buckets. However we were storing the bucket index into a TypeIndex which has an input limit of (2^31)-4095 indices, see this link. Any value above that limit will improperly set the TypeIndex's high bit, which is interpreted as DecoratedItemIdMask. This used to cause bad indices on extraction when calling TypeIndex::toArrayIndex().

Ghashing is probably going to be faster in most cases, even without
precomputed ghashes in object files.
Here is my table of results linking clang.pdb:
-------------------------------

| j8 | 11.938s | 21.984s |
| j28 | 8.375s | 18.391s |
-------------------------------
This shows that ghashing is faster if at least four cores are available.
This may make the linker slower if most cores are busy in the middle of
a build, but in that case, the linker probably isn't on the critical
path of the build. Incremental build performance is arguably more
important than highly contended batch build link performance.
The -time output indicates that ghash computation is the dominant
factor:

This diff paves the way for {D102964} which adds a new kind of
InputSection.
We previously maintained section ordering implicitly: we created
InputSections as we parsed each file in command-line order, and passed
on this ordering when we created OutputSections and OutputSegments by
iterating over these InputSections. The implicitness of the ordering
made it difficult to refactor the code to e.g. handle a new type of
InputSection. As such, I've codified the ordering explicitly via
`inputOrder` fields. This also allows us to use `sort` instead of
`stable_sort`.

extern "C" int puts(char const *);
void Cat::makeNoise() const { puts("Meow"); }

-shared -O3 -fuse-ld=lld -Wl,--lto-whole-program-visibility
-Wl,--version-script,cat.ver
```
We cannot devirtualize `Cat::makeNoise`. The issue is complex:
Due to `-fsplit-lto-unit` and usage of type metadata, we place the Cat
vtable declaration into module 0 and the Cat vtable definition with type
metadata into module 1, causing duplicate entries (Undefined followed by
Defined) in the `lto::InputFile::symbols()` output.
In `BitcodeFile::parse`, after processing the `Undefined` then the
`Defined`, the final state is `Defined`.
In `BitcodeCompiler::add`, for the first symbol, `computeBinding`
returns `STB_LOCAL`, then we reset it to `Undefined` because it is
prevailing (`versionId` is `preserved`). For the second symbol, because
the state is now `Undefined`, `computeBinding` returns `STB_GLOBAL`,
causing `ExportDynamic` to be true and suppressing devirtualization.
In D77280, the `computeBinding` change used a stricter `isDefined()`
condition to make weak``Lazy` symbol work.
This patch relaxes the condition to weaker `!isLazy()` to keep it
working while making the devirtualization work as well.

If we support local signature symbols (PR43094), these tests would fail.
When the support is added, new tests (local signature symbol specific) should be developed.
Prior to this change build with `-shared/-pie` and using TLS (but
without -shared-memory) would hit this assert:
"Currenly only a single data segment is supported in PIC mode"
This is because we were not including TLS data when merging data
segments. However, when we build without shared-memory (i.e. without
threads) we effectively lower away TLS into a normal active data
segment.. so we were ending up with two active data segments: the merged
data, and the lowered TLS data.
To fix this problem we can instead avoid combining data segments at
all when running in shared memory mode (because in this case all
segment initialization is passive). And then in non-shared memory
mode we know that TLS has been lowered and therefore we can can
and should combine all segments.
So with this new behavior we have two different modes:
1. With shared memory / mutli-threaded: Never combine data segments
since it is not necessary. (All data segments as passive already).
2. Wihout shared memory / single-threaded: Combine *all* data segments
since we treat TLS as normal data. (We end up with a single
active data segment).

The MinGW driver passed a hardcoded true to this parameter
since 6f4e255219, but when the MinGW driver got the
canExitEarly parameter for consistency in b11386f9be, this
call was missed so it wasn't passed on properly.
That way, it's done only once instead of every time shouldExportSymbol() is
called.
Possibly a bit faster:

In other runs with n=30 it makes no perf difference, so maybe it's just noise.
But being able to quickly and conveniently answer "is this symbol exported?"
is useful for fixing PR50373 and for implementing -dead_strip, so this seems
like a good change regardless.
No behavior change.

Test plan: make check-lld-macho
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D102664
The main motivation for this refactor is to remove the subclass
relationship between the InputSegment and MergeInputSegment and
SyntenticMergedInputSegment so that we can use the merging classes for
debug sections which are not data segments.
In the process of refactoring I also remove all the virtual functions
from the class hierarchy and try to reuse techniques used in the ELF
linker (see `lld/ELF/InputSections.h`).

Eventually we should apply these lists at symbol parse time instead of

Besides -Bdynamic and -Bstatic, ld documents additional aliases for both of these options. Instead of -Bstatic, one may write -dn, -non_shared or -static. Instead of -Bdynamic one may write -dy or -call_shared. Source: https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.36/ld/Options.html
This patch adds those aliases to the MinGW driver of lld for the sake of ld compatibility.
Encountered this case while compiling a static Qt 6.1 distribution and got build failures as -static was passed directly to the linker, instead of through the compiler driver.

Has the effect that `__mh_execute_header` stays in the symbol table of
outputs even after running `strip` on the output. I don't know if that's
important for anything -- my motivation for the patch is just is to make
the output more similar to ld64.
(Corresponds to symbolTableInAndNeverStrip in ld64.)

D62727 removed GotEntrySize and GotPltEntrySize with a comment that they
are always equal to wordsize(), but that is not entirely true: X32 has a
word size of 4, but needs 8-byte GOT entries. This restores gotEntrySize
for both, adjusted for current naming conventions, but defaults it to
config->wordsize to keep things simple for architectures other than
x86_64.
This partially reverts D62727.

LLD already produces a nice error message when sections exceed 4GB, and
this setRVA assertion causes LLD to crash instead of diagnosing the
error properly.
No test because we don't want slow tests that create 4GB files.
This fixes a bug with string merging with string symbols that contain
NULLs, as is the case in the `merge-string.s` test.
The bug only showed when we run with `--relocatable` and then try read
the resulting object back in. In this case we would end up with string
symbols that extend past the end of the segment in which they live.
The problem comes from the fact that sections which are flagged as
string mergable assume that all strings are NULL terminated. The
merging algorithm will drop trailing chars that follow a NULL since they
are essentially unreachable. However, the "size" attribute (in the
symbol table) of such a truncated symbol is not updated resulting a
symbol size that can overlap the end of the segment.
I verified that this can happen in ELF too given the right conditions
and the its harmless enough. In practice Strings that contain embedded
null should not be part of a mergable section.

LLVM's build system contains support for configuring a distribution, but
it can often be useful to be able to configure multiple distributions
(e.g. if you want separate distributions for the tools and the
libraries). Add this support to the build system, along with
documentation and usage examples.

Extend the range of calls beyond an architecture's limited branch range by first calling a thunk, which loads the far address into a scratch register (x16 on ARM64) and branches through it.
Other ports (COFF, ELF) use multiple passes with successively-refined guesses regarding the expansion of text-space imposed by thunk-space overhead. This MachO algorithm places thunks during MergedOutputSection::finalize() in a single pass using exact thunk-space overheads. Thunks are kept in a separate vector to avoid the overhead of inserting into the `inputs` vector of `MergedOutputSection`.
FIXME:
* arm64-stubs.s test is broken
* add thunk tests
* Handle thunks to DylibSymbol in MergedOutputSection::finalize()

Don't include the relocation addend when calculating the
virtual address of a symbol. Instead just pass the symbol's
offset and add the addend afterwards.
Without this fix we hit the `offset is outside the section`
error in MergeInputSegment::getSegmentPiece.
This fixes a real world error we were are seeing in emscripten.

We have this extra step in wasm-ld that doesn't exist in other lld
backend which verifies the existing contents of the relocation targets.
This was originally intended as an extra form of double checking and an
aid to compiler developers. However it has always been somewhat
controversial and there have been suggestions in the past the we simply
remove it.
My motivation for removing it now is that its causing me a headache
when trying to fix an issue with negative addends. In the case of
negative addends that final result can be wrapped/negative but this
checking code would require significant modification to be able to deal
with that case. For example with some test cases I'm looking at I'm
seeing error like this:
```
wasm-ld: warning: /usr/local/google/home/sbc/dev/wasm/llvm-build/tools/lld/test/wasm/Output/merge-string.s.tmp.o:(.rodata_relocs): unexpected existing value for R_WASM_MEMORY_ADDR_I32: existing=FFFFFFFA expected=FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFA
```
Rather than try to refactor `calcExpectedValue` to somehow return two
different types of results (32 and 64-bit) depending on the relocation
type, I think we can just remove this code.

Currently, when reporting unresolved symbols in shared libraries, if an
undefined symbol is firstly seen in a regular object file that shadows
the reference for the same symbol in a shared object. As a result, the
error for the unresolved symbol in the shared library is not reported.
If referencing sections in regular object files are discarded because of
'--gc-sections', no reports about such symbols are generated, and the
linker finishes successfully, generating an output image that fails on
the run.
The patch fixes the issue by keeping symbols, which should be checked,
for each shared library separately.

It was reverted in: 061e071d8c
This change adds support for a new WASM_SEG_FLAG_STRINGS flag in
the object format which works in a similar fashion to SHF_STRINGS
in the ELF world.
Unlike the ELF linker this support is currently limited:
- No support for SHF_MERGE (non-string merging)
- Always do full tail merging ("lo" can be merged with "hello")
- Only support single byte strings (p2align 0)
Like the ELF linker merging is only performed at `-O1` and above.
This fixes part of https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48828,
although crucially it doesn't not currently support debug sections
because they are not represented by data segments (they are custom
sections)
