On ARM64, this is normally necessary only after a module exceeds
128 MB in size (while the limit for thumb is 16 MB). For conditional
branches, the range limit is only 1 MB though (the same as for thumb),
and for the tbz instruction, the range is only 32 KB, which allows for
a test much smaller than the full 128 MB.
This fixes PR40467.

We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

When GCC produces a jump table as part of a comdat function, the
jump table itself is produced as plain non-comdat rdata section. When
linked with ld.bfd, all of those rdata sections are kept, with
relocations unchanged in the sections that refer to discarded comdat
sections.
This has been observed with at least GCC 5.x and 7.x.

MinGW uses these kind of list terminator symbols for traversing
the constructor/destructor lists. These list terminators are
actual pointers entries in the lists, with the values 0 and
(uintptr_t)-1 (instead of just symbols pointing to the start/end
of the list).
(This mechanism exists in both the mingw-w64 crt startup code and
in libgcc; normally the mingw-w64 one is used, but a DLL build of
libgcc uses the libgcc one. Therefore it's not trivial to change
the mechanism without lots of cross-project synchronization and
potentially invalidating some combinations of old/new versions
of them.)
When mingw-w64 has been used with lld so far, the CRT startup object
files have so far provided these symbols, ending up with different,
incompatible builds of the CRT startup object files depending on
whether binutils or lld are going to be used.
In order to avoid the need of different configuration of the CRT startup
object files depending on what linker to be used, provide these symbols
in lld instead. (Mingw-w64 checks at build time whether the linker
provides these symbols or not.) This unifies this particular detail
between the two linkers.
This does disallow the use of the very latest lld with older versions
of mingw-w64 (the configure check for the list was added recently;
earlier it simply checked whether the CRT was built with gcc or clang),
and requires rebuilding the mingw-w64 CRT. But the number of users of
lld+mingw still is low enough that such a change should be tolerable,
and unifies this aspect of the toolchains, easing interoperability
between the toolchains for the future.
The actual test for this feature is added in ctors_dtors_priority.s,
but a number of other tests that checked absolute output addresses
are updated.

After fixing up the runtime pseudo relocation, the .refptr.<var>
will be a plain pointer with the same value as the IAT entry itself.
To save a little binary size and reduce the number of runtime pseudo
relocations, redirect references to the IAT entry (via the __imp_<var>
symbol) itself and discard the .refptr.<var> chunk (as long as the
same section chunk doesn't contain anything else than the single
pointer).
As there are now cases for both setting the Live variable to true
and false externally, remove the accessors and setters and just make
the variable public instead.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D51456

Normally, in order to reference exported data symbols from a different
DLL, the declarations need to have the dllimport attribute, in order to
use the __imp_<var> symbol (which contains an address to the actual
variable) instead of the variable itself directly. This isn't an issue
in the same way for functions, since any reference to the function without
the dllimport attribute will end up as a reference to a thunk which loads
the actual target function from the import address table (IAT).
GNU ld, in MinGW environments, supports automatically importing data
symbols from DLLs, even if the references didn't have the appropriate
dllimport attribute. Since the PE/COFF format doesn't support the kind
of relocations that this would require, the MinGW's CRT startup code
has an custom framework of their own for manually fixing the missing
relocations once module is loaded and the target addresses in the IAT
are known.
For this to work, the linker (originall in GNU ld) creates a list of
remaining references needing fixup, which the runtime processes on
startup before handing over control to user code.
While this feature is rather controversial, it's one of the main features
allowing unix style libraries to be used on windows without any extra
porting effort.
Some sort of automatic fixing of data imports is also necessary for the
itanium C++ ABI on windows (as clang implements it right now) for importing
vtable pointers in certain cases, see D43184 for some discussion on that.
The runtime pseudo relocation handler supports 8/16/32/64 bit addresses,
either PC relative references (like IMAGE_REL_*_REL32*) or absolute
references (IMAGE_REL_AMD64_ADDR32, IMAGE_REL_AMD64_ADDR32,
IMAGE_REL_I386_DIR32). On linking, the relocation is handled as a
relocation against the corresponding IAT slot. For the absolute references,
a normal base relocation is created, to update the embedded address
in case the image is loaded at a different address.
The list of runtime pseudo relocations contains the RVA of the
imported symbol (the IAT slot), the RVA of the location the relocation
should be applied to, and a size of the memory location. When the
relocations are fixed at runtime, the difference between the actual
IAT slot value and the IAT slot address is added to the reference,
doing the right thing for both absolute and relative references.
With this patch alone, things work fine for i386 binaries, and mostly
for x86_64 binaries, with feature parity with GNU ld. Despite this,
there are a few gotchas:
- References to data from within code works fine on both x86 architectures,
since their relocations consist of plain 32 or 64 bit absolute/relative
references. On ARM and AArch64, references to data doesn't consist of
a plain 32 or 64 bit embedded address or offset in the code. On ARMNT,
it's usually a MOVW+MOVT instruction pair represented by a
IMAGE_REL_ARM_MOV32T relocation, each instruction containing 16 bit of
the target address), on AArch64, it's usually an ADRP+ADD/LDR/STR
instruction pair with an even more complex encoding, storing a PC
relative address (with a range of +/- 4 GB). This could theoretically
be remedied by extending the runtime pseudo relocation handler with new
relocation types, to support these instruction encodings. This isn't an
issue for GCC/GNU ld since they don't support windows on ARMNT/AArch64.
- For x86_64, if references in code are encoded as 32 bit PC relative
offsets, the runtime relocation will fail if the target turns out to be
out of range for a 32 bit offset.
- Fixing up the relocations at runtime requires making sections writable
if necessary, with the VirtualProtect function. In Windows Store/UWP apps,
this function is forbidden.
These limitations are addressed by a few later patches in lld and
llvm.

In COFF, duplicate string literals are merged by placing them in a
comdat whose leader symbol name contains a specific prefix followed
by the hash and partial contents of the string literal. This gives
us an easy way to identify sections containing string literals in
the linker: check for leader symbol names with the given prefix.
Any sections that are identified in this way as containing string
literals may be tail merged. We do so using the StringTableBuilder
class, which is also used to tail merge string literals in the ELF
linker. Tail merging is enabled only if ICF is enabled, as this
provides a signal as to whether the user cares about binary size.

only the comdat leader participates in comdat resolution, and not any

According to Microsoft's PE/COFF documentation, a SECREL relocation is
