MIPS ABI requires creation of the MIPS_RLD_MAP dynamic tag for non-PIE
executables only and MIPS_RLD_MAP_REL tag for both PIE and non-PIE
executables. The patch skips definition of the MIPS_RLD_MAP for PIE
files and defines MIPS_RLD_MAP_REL.
The MIPS_RLD_MAP_REL tag stores the offset to the .rld_map section
relative to the address of the tag itself.

If all references to a DSO happen to be weak, and if the DSO is
specified with --as-needed, the DSO is not added to DT_NEEDED.
If that happens, we also need to eliminate shared symbols created
from the DSO. Otherwise, they become dangling references that point
to non-exsitent DSO.

I'm proposing a new command line flag, --warn-backrefs in this patch.
The flag and the feature proposed below don't exist in GNU linkers
nor the current lld.
--warn-backrefs is an option to detect reverse or cyclic dependencies
between static archives, and it can be used to keep your program
compatible with GNU linkers after you switch to lld. I'll explain the
feature and why you may find it useful below.
lld's symbol resolution semantics is more relaxed than traditional
Unix linkers. Therefore,
ld.lld foo.a bar.o
succeeds even if bar.o contains an undefined symbol that have to be
resolved by some object file in foo.a. Traditional Unix linkers
don't allow this kind of backward reference, as they visit each
file only once from left to right in the command line while
resolving all undefined symbol at the moment of visiting.
In the above case, since there's no undefined symbol when a linker
visits foo.a, no files are pulled out from foo.a, and because the
linker forgets about foo.a after visiting, it can't resolve
undefined symbols that could have been resolved otherwise.
That lld accepts more relaxed form means (besides it makes more
sense) that you can accidentally write a command line or a build
file that works only with lld, even if you have a plan to
distribute it to wider users who may be using GNU linkers. With
--check-library-dependency, you can detect a library order that
doesn't work with other Unix linkers.
The option is also useful to detect cyclic dependencies between
static archives. Again, lld accepts
ld.lld foo.a bar.a
even if foo.a and bar.a depend on each other. With --warn-backrefs
it is handled as an error.
Here is how the option works. We assign a group ID to each file. A
file with a smaller group ID can pull out object files from an
archive file with an equal or greater group ID. Otherwise, it is a
reverse dependency and an error.
A file outside --{start,end}-group gets a fresh ID when
instantiated. All files within the same --{start,end}-group get the
same group ID. E.g.
ld.lld A B --start-group C D --end-group E
A and B form group 0, C, D and their member object files form group
1, and E forms group 2. I think that you can see how this group
assignment rule simulates the traditional linker's semantics.

Currently LLD sets OutSecOff in addSection for input sections.
That is a fake offset (just a rude approximation to remember the order),
used for sorting SHF_LINK_ORDER sections
(see resolveShfLinkOrder, compareByFilePosition).
There are 2 problems with such approach:
1. We currently change and reuse Size field as a value assigned. Changing size is
not good because leads to bugs. Currently, SIZEOF(.bss) for empty .bss returns 2
because we add two empty synthetic sections and increase size twice by 1.
(See PR37011: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37011)
2. Such approach simply does not work when --symbol-ordering-file is involved,
because processing of the ordering file might break the initial section order.
This fixes PR37011.

and also, the symbol must be global as local symbols

Some platforms interpret the pound sign as one character. Platforms that use
Python 2.x actually interpret it as two characters because in the Python 2.x
version of lit, the string used for the file name is a byte string and the pound
sign is two bytes.

Currently there are a few odd things about the warning about symbols
that cannot be ordered. This patch fixes:
* When there is an undefined symbol that resolves to a shared file, we
were printing the location of the undefined reference.
* If there are multiple comdats, we were reporting them all.

This is similar to r329219, but for the entire section. Like r329219 I
don't expect this to have any real impact, it is just more consistent
and simpler.

Previously, "size" column is 9 characters long which is too long
at least for 32-bit (because at maximum it needs 8 columns). This
patch make it one column shorter than before. That's also a reasonable
default for 64-bit.

Currently, LLD print symbol assignment commands to the map file,
but it does not do that for assignments that are outside of the section
descriptions. Such assignments can affect the layout though.
The patch implements the following:
* Teaches LLD to print symbol assignments outside of section declaration.
* Teaches LLD to print PROVIDE/HIDDEN/PROVIDE hidden commands.
In case when symbol is not provided, nothing will be printed.

One place where this seems to matter is to make sure the .rsrc section comes
after .text. The Win32 UpdateResource() function can change the contents of
.rsrc. It will move the sections that come after, but if .text gets moved, the
entry point header will not get updated and the executable breaks. This was
found by a test in Chromium.

This fixes PR36927.
The issue is next. Imagine we have -Ttext 0x7c and code below.
.code16
.global _start
_start:
movb $_start+0x83,%ah
So we have R_386_8 relocation and _start at 0x7C.
Addend is 0x83 == 131. We will sign extend it to 0xffffffffffffff83.
Now, 0xffffffffffffff83 + 0x7c gives us 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.
Techically 0x83 + 0x7c == 0xFF, we do not exceed 1 byte value, but
currently LLD errors out, because we use checkUInt<8>.
Let's try to use checkInt<8> now and the following code to see if it can help (no):
main.s:
.byte foo
input.s:
.globl foo
.hidden foo
foo = 0xff
Here, foo is 0xFF. And addend is 0x0. Final value is 0x00000000000000FF.
Again, it fits one byte well, but with checkInt<8>,
we would error out it, so we can't use it.
What we want to do is to check that the result fits 1 byte well.
Patch changes the check to checkIntUInt to fix the issue.

It generally does not matter much where we place sections ordered
by --symbol-ordering-file relative to other sections. But if the
ordered sections are hot (which is the case already for some users
of --symbol-ordering-file, and is increasingly more likely to be
the case once profile-guided section layout lands) and the target
has limited-range branches, it is beneficial to place the ordered
sections in the middle of the output section in order to decrease
the likelihood that a range extension thunk will be required to call
a hot function from a cold function or vice versa.
That is what this patch does. After D44966 it reduces the size of
Chromium for Android's .text section by 60KB.

Now that we have the ability to create short thunks, it is beneficial
for thunk sections to be surrounded by ThunkSectionSpacing bytes
of code on both sides in order to increase the likelihood that the
distance from the thunk to the target will be sufficiently small to
allow for the creation of a short thunk. This is currently the case
for most thunks that we create, except for the last one, which could,
depending on the size of the output section, potentially appear near
the end and therefore have a relatively small amount of code after it.
This patch moves the last thunk section to ThunkSectionSpacing bytes
before the end of the output section, as long as the section is larger
than 2*ThunkSectionSpacing bytes. It reduces the size of Chromium
for Android's .text section by 32KB.
