Previously, we uncompress all compressed sections before doing anything.
That works, and that is conceptually simple, but that could results in
a waste of CPU time and memory if uncompressed sections are then
discarded or just copied to the output buffer.
In particular, if .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are compressed and if no
-gdb-index option is given, we wasted CPU and memory because we
uncompress them into newly allocated bufers and then memcpy the buffers
to the output buffer. That temporary buffer was redundant.
This patch changes how to uncompress sections. Now, compressed sections
are uncompressed lazily. To do that, `Data` member of `InputSectionBase`
is now hidden from outside, and `data()` accessor automatically expands
an compressed buffer if necessary.
If no one calls `data()`, then `writeTo()` directly uncompresses
compressed data into the output buffer. That eliminates the redundant
memory allocation and redundant memcpy.
This patch significantly reduces memory consumption (20 GiB max RSS to
15 Gib) for an executable whose .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are in total
5 GiB in an uncompressed form.

The GOT is referenced through the symbol _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ .
The relocation added calculates the offset into the global offset table for
the entry of a symbol. In order to get the correct TargetVA I needed to
create an new relocation expression, HEXAGON_GOT. It does
Sym.getGotVA() - In.GotPlt->getVA().

r320770 made LLD handle invalid DSOs where local symbols were found in
the global part of the symbol table. Unfortunately, it didn't handle the
case where those local symbols were also undefined, and r326242 exposed
an assertion failure in that case. Just warn on that case instead of
crashing, by moving the local binding check before the undefined symbol
addition.
The input file for the test is crafted by hand, since I don't know of
any tool that would produce such a broken DSO. I also don't understand
what it even means for a symbol to be undefined but have STB_LOCAL
binding - I don't think that combination makes any sense - but we have
found broken DSOs of this nature that we were linking against. I've
included detailed instructions on how to produce the DSO in the test.

This is the fix for
"Bug 39104 - LLD links incorrect ELF executable if version script contains "local: *;"
(https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39104).
The issue happens when we have non-PIC program call to function in a shared library.
(for example, the PR above has R_X86_64_PC32 relocation against __libc_start_main)
LLD converts symbol to Defined in that case with the use of replaceWithDefined()
The issue is that after above we create a broken relocation because do not
include the symbol into .dynsym.
That happens when the version script is used because we treat the symbol as
STB_LOCAL if the following condition match:
VersionId == VER_NDX_LOCAL && isDefined() and do not include it to
.dynsym because of that. Patch fixes the issue.

Imagine we have the following code:
int foo();
int main() { return foo(); }
It will crash if you try to compile it with
`clang -O0 -gdwarf-5 test.cpp -o test -g -fuse-ld=lld`
The crash happens inside the LLVM DWARF parser because LLD does not provide
the .debug_line_str section. At the same time for correct parsing and reporting,
we anyways need to provide this section from our side.
The patch fixes the issue.

Summary:
This patch adds a new flag, --warn-ifunc-textrel, to work around a glibc bug. When a code with ifunc symbols is used to produce an object file with text relocations, lld always succeeds. However, if that object file is linked using an old version of glibc, the resultant binary just crashes with segmentation fault when it is run (The bug is going to be corrected as of glibc 2.19).
Since there is no way to tell beforehand what library the object file will be linked against in the future, there does not seem to be a fool-proof way for lld to give an error only in cases where the binary will crash. So, with this change (dated 2018-09-25), lld starts to give a warning, contingent on a new command line flag that does not have a gnu counter part. The default value for --warn-ifunc-textrel is false, so lld behaviour will not change unless the user explicitly asks lld to give a warning. Users that link with a glibc library with version 2.19 or newer, or does not use ifunc symbols, or does not generate object files with text relocations do not need to take any action. Other users may consider to start passing warn-ifunc-textrel to lld to get early warnings.

Currently, LLD may report "unsupported relocation target while parsing debug info"

At the same time LLD does that for zeroed R_X86_64_NONE relocations,

The access sequence for global variables in the medium and large code models use
2 instructions to add an offset to the toc-pointer. If the offset fits whithin
16-bits then the instruction that sets the high 16 bits is redundant.
This patch adds the --toc-optimize option, (on by default) and enables rewriting
of 2 instruction global variable accesses into 1 when the offset from the
TOC-pointer to the variable (or .got entry) fits in 16 signed bits. eg
addis %r3, %r2, 0 --> nop
addi %r3, %r3, -0x8000 --> addi %r3, %r2, -0x8000
This rewriting can be disabled with the --no-toc-optimize flag

Summary:
For --pack-dyn-relocs=android, finalizeSections calls
LinkerScript::assignAddresses and
AndroidPackedRelocationSection::updateAllocSize in a loop,
where assignAddresses lays out the ELF image, then updateAllocSize
determines the size of the Android packed relocation table by encoding it.
Encoding the table requires knowing the values of relocation addends.
To get the addend of a TLS relocation, updateAllocSize can call getSymVA
on a TLS symbol before setPhdrs has initialized Out::TlsPhdr, producing an
error:
<file> has an STT_TLS symbol but doesn't have an SHF_TLS section
Fix the problem by initializing Out::TlsPhdr immediately after the program
headers are created. The segment's p_vaddr field isn't initialized until
setPhdrs, so use FirstSec->Addr, which is what setPhdrs would use.
FirstSec will typically refer to the .tdata or .tbss output section, whose
(tentative) address was computed by assignAddresses.
Android currently avoids this problem because it uses emutls and doesn't
support ELF TLS. This problem doesn't apply to --pack-dyn-relocs=relr
because SHR_RELR only handles relative relocations without explicit addends
or info.

tolower() has some overhead because current locale is considered (though in lld the default "C" locale is used which does not matter too much). llvm::toLower is more efficient as it compiles to a compare and a conditional jump, as opposed to a libc call if tolower is used.
Disregarding locale also matches gdb's behavior (gdb/minsyms.h):
#define SYMBOL_HASH_NEXT(hash, c) \
((hash) * 67 + TOLOWER ((unsigned char) (c)) - 113)
where TOLOWER (include/safe-ctype.h) is a macro that uses a lookup table under the hood which is similar to llvm::toLower.
