Use the environment variable "LLD_RUN_ROUNDTRIP_TEST" in the test that you want
to disable, as
RUN: env LLD_RUN_ROUNDTRIP_TEST= <run>
This was a patch that I made, but I find this a better way to accomplish what we
want to do.

This caused some tests to fail on FreeBSD, and Mac OS X.
Some std::sort() implementations will check for strict-weak-ordering
by comparing with the same element, or will compare an element to
itself for 1-element sequence. Take care of this case. Thanks to
chandlerc for explaning that to me.

Previously we applied the LayoutPass to order atoms and then
apply elf::ArrayOrderPass to sort them again. The first pass is
basically supposed to sort atoms in the normal fashion (which
is to sort symbols in the same order as the input files).
The second pass sorts atoms in {init,fini}_array.<priority> by
priority.
The problem is that the LayoutPass is overkill. It analyzes
references between atoms to make a decision how to sort them.
It's slow, hard to understand, and above all, it doesn't seem
that we need its feature for ELF in the first place.
This patch remove the LayoutPass from ELF pass list. Now all
reordering is done in elf::OrderPass. That pass sorts atoms by
{init,fini}_array, and if they are not in the special section,
they are ordered as the same order as they appear in the command
line. The new code is far easier to understand, faster, and
still able to create valid executables.
Unlike the previous layout pass, elf::OrderPass doesn't count
any attributes of an atom (e.g. permissions) except its
position. It's OK because the writer takes care of them if we
have to.
This patch changes the order of final output, although that's
benign. Tests are updated.

That kind of reference was used only in ELFFile, and the use of
that reference there didn't seem to make sense. All test still
pass (after adjusting symbol names) without that code. LLD is
still be able to link LLD and Clang. Looks like we just don't
need this.

I believe the original code is valid, but on Windows it failed with an

Don't use rbegin and rend to workaround that error.

We used to manage the state whether we are in a group or not
using a counter. The counter is incremented by one if we jump from
end-group to start-group, and decremented by one if we don't.
The counter was assumed to be either zero or one, but obviously it
could be negative (if there's a group which is not repeated at all).
This is a fix for that issue.

LLD parses archive file index table only at first. When it finds a symbol
it is looking for is defined in a member file in an archive file, it actually
reads the member from the archive file. That's done in the core linker.
That's a single-thread process since the core linker is single threaded.
If your command line contains a few object files and a lot of archive files
(which is quite often the case), LLD hardly utilizes hardware parallelism.
This patch improves parallelism by speculatively instantiating archive
file members. At the beginning of the core linking, we first create a map
containing all symbols defined in all members, and each time we find a
new undefined symbol, we instantiate a member file containing the
symbol (if such file exists). File instantiation is side effect free, so this
should not affect correctness.
This is a quick benchmark result. Time to link self-link LLD executable:
Linux 9.78s -> 8.50s (0.86x)
Windows 6.18s -> 4.51s (0.73x)

This patch makes File::parse() multi-thread safe. If one thread is running
File::parse(), other threads will block if they try to call the same method.
File::parse() is idempotent, so you can safely call multiple times.
With this change, we don't have to wait for all worker threads to finish
in Driver::link(). Previously, Driver::link() calls TaskGroup::sync() to
wait for all threads running File::parse(). This was not ideal because
we couldn't start the resolver until we parse all files.
This patch increase parallelism by making Driver::link() to not wait for
worker threads. The resolver calls parse() to make sure that the file
being read has been parsed, and then uses the file. In this approach,
the resolver can run with the parser threads in parallel.

InputElement was named that because it's an element of an InputGraph.
It's losing the origin because the InputGraph is now being removed.

getNextFile used to have a complex logic to determine which file
should be processed by the Resolver on next iteration.
Now, it is just a sequential accessor to the internal array and
provides no sensible feature.
This patch also removes InputGraph::getGroupSize and InputGraph::
skipGroup to simplify the code.

PECOFF was the only user of the API, and the reason why we created
the API is because, although the driver creates a list of input files,
it has no knowledge on what files are being created. It was because
everything was hidden behind the InputGraph abstraction.
Now the driver knows what that's doing. We no longer need this
indirection to get the file list being processed.
llvm-svn: 225767
This is a part of InputGraph cleanup to represent input files as a flat
list of Files (and some meta-nodes for group etc.)
We cannot achieve that goal in one gigantic patch, so I split the task
into small steps as shown below.
(Recap the progress so far: Currently InputGraph contains a list of
InputElements. Each InputElement contain one File (that used to have
multiple Files, but I eliminated that use case in r223867). Files are
currently instantiated in Driver::link(), but I already made a change
to separate file parsing from object instantiation (r224102), so we
can safely instantiate Files when we need them, instead of wrapping
a file with the wrapper class (FileNode class). InputGraph used to
act like a generator class by interpreting groups by itself, but it's
now just a container of a list of InputElements (r223867).)
1. Instantiate Files in the driver and wrap them with WrapperNode.
WrapperNode is a temporary class that allows us to instantiate Files
in the driver while keep using the current InputGraph data structure.
This patch demonstrates how this step 1 looks like, using Core driver
as an example.
2. Do the same thing for the other drivers.
When step 2 is done, an InputGraph consists of GroupEnd objects or
WrapperNodes each of which contains one File. Other types of
FileNode subclasses are removed.
3. Replace InputGraph with std::vector<std::unique_ptr<InputElement>>.
InputGraph is already just a container of list of InputElements,
so this step removes that needless class.
4. Remove WrapperNode.
We need some code cleanup between each step, because many classes
do a bit odd things (e.g. InputGraph::getGroupSize()). I'll straight
things up as I need to.

ReaderErrorCategory was used only at one place. We now have a
DynamicErrorCategory for this kind of one-time error, so use it.
The calling function doesn't really care the type of an error, so
ReaderErrorCategory was actually dead code.
llvm-svn: 224245
These member functions returns either no_more_files error or a File object.
We could simply return a nullptr instead of a no_more_files.
This function will be removed soon as a part of InputGraph cleanup.
I had to do that step by step.
llvm-svn: 224208
The documentation of parseFile() said that "the resulting File
object may take ownership of the MemoryBuffer." So, whether or not
the ownership of a MemoryBuffer would be taken was not clear.
A FileNode (a subclass of InputElement, which is being deprecated)
keeps the ownership if a File doesn't take it.
This patch makes File always take the ownership of a buffer.
Buffers lifespan is not always the same as File instances.
Files are able to deallocate buffers after parsing the contents.

This reverts commit r223330 because it broke Darwin and ELF
linkers in a way that we couldn't have caught with the existing
test cases.

The aim of this patch is to reduce the excessive abstraction from
the InputGraph. We found that even a simple thing, such as sorting
input files (Mach-O) or adding a new file to the input file list
(PE/COFF), is nearly impossible with the InputGraph abstraction,
because it hides too much information behind it. As a result,
we invented complex interactions between components (e.g.
notifyProgress() mechanism) and tricky code to work around that
limitation. There were many occasions that we needed to write
awkward code.
This patch is a first step to make it cleaner. As a first step,
this removes Group class from the InputGraph. The grouping feature
is now directly handled by the Resolver. notifyProgress is removed
since we no longer need that. I could have cleaned it up even more,
but in order to keep the patch minimum, I focused on Group.
SimpleFileNode class, a container of File objects, is now limited
to have only one File. We shold have done this earlier.
We used to allow putting multiple File objects to FileNode.
Although SimpleFileNode usually has only one file, the Driver class
actually used that capability. I modified the Driver class a bit,
so that one FileNode is created for each input File.
We should now probably remove SimpleFileNode and directly store
File objects to the InputGraph in some way, because a container
that can contain only one object is useless. This is a TODO.
Mach-O input files are now sorted before they are passe to the
Resolver. DarwinInputGraph class is no longer needed, so removed.
PECOFF still has hacky code to add a new file to the input file list.
This will be cleaned up in another patch.

RoundTripPasses should always be called in DEBUG mode if the environment
variable "LLD_RUN_ROUNDTRIP_TEST" is set.
Flavors should not be able to override this behavior.
llvm-svn: 223073
This would allow other flavor specific contexts to override the default value,
if they want to optionally run the round trip passes.
There is some information lost like the original file owner of the atom with
RoundTripPasses. The Gnu flavor needs this information inorder to implement
LinkerScript matching and for other diagnostic outputs such as Map files.
The flag also can be used to record information in the Atom if the information
to the Writer needs to be conveyed through References too.

On darwin in final linked images, the __TEXT segment covers that start of the
file. That means in memory a process can see the mach_header (and load commands)
for every loaded image in a process. There are APIs that take and return the
mach_header addresses as a way to specify a particular loaded image.
For completeness, any code can get the address of the mach_header of the image
it is in by using &__dso_handle. In addition there are mach-o type specific
symbols like __mh_execute_header.
The linker needs to supply a definition for any of these symbols if used. But
the address the symbol it resolves to is not in any section. Instead it is the
address of the start of the __TEXT segment.
I needed to make a small change to SimpleFileNode to not override
resetNextIndex() because the Driver creates a SimpleFileNode to hold the
internal/implicit files that the context/writer can create. For some reason
SimpleFileNode overrode resetNextIndex() to do nothing instead of reseting
the index (which mach-o needs if the internal file is an archive).
llvm-svn: 221822
Darwin uses two-level-namespace lookup for symbols which means the static
linker records where each symbol must be found at runtime. Thus defining a
symbol in a dylib loaded earlier will not effect where symbols needed by
later dylibs will be found. Instead overriding is done through a section
of type S_INTERPOSING which contains tuples of <interposer, interposee>.

The job of the CompactUnwind pass is to turn __compact_unwind data (and
__eh_frame) into the compressed final form in __unwind_info. After it's done,
the original atoms are no longer relevant and should be deleted (they cause
problems during actual execution, quite apart from the fact that they're not
needed).
llvm-svn: 221301
The darwin linker operates differently than the gnu linker with respect to
libraries. The darwin linker first links in all object files from the command
line, then to resolve any remaining undefines, it repeatedly iterates over
libraries on the command line until either all undefines are resolved or no
undefines were resolved in the last pass.
When Shankar made the InputGraph model, the plan for darwin was for the darwin
driver to place all libraries in a group at the end of the InputGraph. Thus
making the darwin model a subset of the gnu model. But it turns out that does
not work because the driver cannot tell if a file is an object or library until
it has been loaded, which happens later.
This solution is to subclass InputGraph for darwin and just iterate the graph
the way darwin linker needs.

Previously, we would not check the target machine type and the module (object)
machine type. Add a check to ensure that we do not attempt to use an object
file with a different target architecture.
This change identified a couple of tests which were incorrectly mixing up
architecture types, using x86 input for a x64 target. Adjust the tests
appropriately. The renaming of the input and the architectures covers the
changes to the existing tests.
One significant change to the existing tests is that the newly added test input
for x64 uses the correct user label prefix for X64.

Rather than a series of cascading ifs, use a switch statement to convert the
error code to a string. This has the benefit of allowing the compiler to inform
us if we ever add a new error code but fail to update the string representation.

The mergeByContent attribute on DefinedAtoms triggers the symbol table to
coalesce atoms with the exact same content. The problem is that atoms can also
have a required custom section. The coalescing should never change the custom
section of an atom.
The fix is to only consider to atoms to have the same content if their
sectionChoice() and customSectionName() attributes match.

No functionality change. This removes a down-cast from LinkingContext to
MachOLinkingContext.
Also, remove const from LinkingContext::createImplicitFiles() to remove

to need to modify the context (MachOLinkingContext does).

The darwin linker has the -demangle option which directs it to demangle C++
(and soon Swift) mangled symbol names. Long term we need some Diagnostics object
for formatting errors and warnings. But for now we have the Core linker just
writing messages to llvm::errs(). So, to enable demangling, I changed the
Resolver to call a LinkingContext method on the symbol name.
To make this more interesting, the demangling code is done via __cxa_demangle()
which is part of the C++ ABI, which is only supported on some platforms, so I
had to conditionalize the code with the config generated HAVE_CXXABI_H.
