Non-preemptible IFUNC are placed in in.iplt (.glink on EM_PPC64). If
there is a non-GOT non-PLT relocation, for pointer equality, we change
the type of the symbol from STT_IFUNC and STT_FUNC and bind it to the
.glink entry.
On EM_386, EM_X86_64, EM_ARM, and EM_AARCH64, the PLT code sequence
loads the address from its associated .got.plt slot. An IPLT also has an
associated .got.plt slot and can use the same code sequence.
On EM_PPC64, the PLT code sequence is actually a bl instruction in
.glink . It jumps to `__glink_PLTresolve` (the PLT header). and
`__glink_PLTresolve` computes the .plt slot (relocated by
R_PPC64_JUMP_SLOT).
An IPLT does not have an associated R_PPC64_JUMP_SLOT, so we cannot use
`bl` in .iplt . Instead, create a call stub which has a similar code
sequence as PPC64PltCallStub. We don't save the TOC pointer, so such
scenarios will not work: a function pointer to a non-preemptible ifunc,
which resolves to a function defined in another DSO. This is the
restriction described by https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/GNU_IFUNC
(though on many architectures it works in practice):
Requirement (a): Resolver must be defined in the same translation unit as the implementations.
If an ifunc is taken address but not called, technically we don't need
an entry for it, but we currently do that.
This patch makes
// clang -fuse-ld=lld -fno-pie -no-pie a.c
// clang -fuse-ld=lld -fPIE -pie a.c
#include <stdio.h>
static void impl(void) { puts("meow"); }
void thefunc(void) __attribute__((ifunc("resolver")));
void *resolver(void) { return &impl; }
int main(void) {
thefunc();
void (*theptr)(void) = &thefunc;
theptr();
}
work on Linux glibc and FreeBSD. Calling a function pointer pointing to
a Non-preemptible IFUNC never worked before.

GNU ld creates the synthetic section .iplt, and has a built-in linker
script that assigns .iplt to the output section .plt . There is no
output section named .iplt .
Making .iplt an output section actually has a benefit that makes the
tricky toolchain feature stand out. Symbolizers don't have to deal with
mixed PLT entries (e.g. llvm-objdump -d incorrectly annotates such jump
targets).
On EM_PPC{,64}, .glink contains a PLT resolver and a series of jump
instructions. The 4-byte entry size makes it unnecessary to have an
alignment of 16.
Mark ppc32-gnu-ifunc.s and ppc32-gnu-ifunc-nonpreemptable.s as `XFAIL: *`.
They test IPLT on EM_PPC, which never works.

This change affects the non-linker script case (precisely, when the
`SECTIONS` command is not used). It deletes 3 alignments at PT_LOAD
boundaries for the default case: the size of a powerpc64 binary can be
decreased by at most 192kb. The technique can be ported to other
targets.
Let me demonstrate the idea with a maxPageSize=65536 example:
When assigning the address to the first output section of a new PT_LOAD,
if the end p_vaddr of the previous PT_LOAD is 0x10020, we advance to
the next multiple of maxPageSize: 0x20000. The new PT_LOAD will thus
have p_vaddr=0x20000. Because p_offset and p_vaddr are congruent modulo
maxPageSize, p_offset will be 0x20000, leaving a p_offset gap [0x10020,
0x20000) in the output.
Alternatively, if we advance to 0x20020, the new PT_LOAD will have
p_vaddr=0x20020. We can pick either 0x10020 or 0x20020 for p_offset!
Obviously 0x10020 is the choice because it leaves no gap. At runtime,
p_vaddr will be rounded down by pagesize (65536 if
pagesize=maxPageSize). This PT_LOAD will load additional initial
contents from p_offset ranges [0x10000,0x10020), which will also be
loaded by the previous PT_LOAD. This is fine if -z noseparate-code is in
effect or if we are not transiting between executable and non-executable
segments.
ld.bfd -z noseparate-code leverages this technique to keep output small.
This patch implements the technique in lld, which is mostly effective on
targets with large defaultMaxPageSize (AArch64/MIPS/PPC: 65536). The 3
removed alignments can save almost 3*65536 bytes.
Two places that rely on p_vaddr%pagesize = 0 have to be updated.
1) We used to round p_memsz(PT_GNU_RELRO) up to commonPageSize (defaults
to 4096 on all targets). Now p_vaddr%commonPageSize may be non-zero.
The updated formula takes account of that factor.
2) Our TP offsets formulae are only correct if p_vaddr%p_align = 0.
Fix them. See the updated comments in InputSection.cpp for details.
On targets that we enable the technique (only PPC64 now),
we can potentially make `p_vaddr(PT_TLS)%p_align(PT_TLS) != 0`
if `sh_addralign(.tdata) < sh_addralign(.tbss)`
This exposes many problems in ld.so implementations, especially the
offsets of dynamic TLS blocks. Known issues:
FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT rtld-elf (i386/amd64/powerpc/arm64)
glibc (HEAD) i386 and x86_64 https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24606
musl<=1.1.22 on TLS Variant I architectures (aarch64/powerpc64/...)
So, force p_vaddr%p_align = 0 by rounding dot up to p_align(PT_TLS).
The technique will be enabled (with updated tests) for other targets in
subsequent patches.

Currently the following 3 relocation types do not trigger the creation
of a canonical PLT (which changes STT_GNU_IFUNC to STT_FUNC and
redirects all references):
1) GOT-generating (`needsGot`)
2) PLT-generating (`needsPlt`)
3) R_ABS with 0 addend in a writable location. This is used for
for ifunc function pointers in writable sections such as .data and .toc.
This patch deletes case 3) to simplify the R_*_IRELATIVE generating
logic added in D57371. Other advantages:
* It is guaranteed no more than 1 R_*_IRELATIVE is created for an ifunc.
* PPC64: no need to special case ifunc in toc-indirect to toc-relative relaxation. See D65755
The deleted elf::addIRelativeRelocs demonstrates that one-pass scan
through relocations makes several optimizations difficult. This is
something we can think about in the future.

Fixes PR42759.
```
// If ifunc is taken address in -fPIC code, it may have a toc entry
.section .toc,"aw",@progbits
.quad ifunc
// ifunc may be defined as STT_GNU_IFUNC in another object file
.type ifunc, %gnu_indirect_function
```
If ifunc is non-preemptable (e.g. when linking an executable), the toc
entry will be relocated by R_PPC64_IRELATIVE.
R_*_IRELATIVE represents the symbolic value of a
non-preemptable ifunc (not associated with a canonical PLT) in a writable location. It has an unknown value at
link time, so we cannot apply toc-indirect to toc-relative relaxation.
