When faced with command line options such as "crtbegin.o appmain.o
-lsomelib crtend.o", GNU ld pulls in all necessary object files from
somelib before proceeding to crtend.o.
LLD operates differently, only loading object files from any
referenced static libraries after processing all input object files.
This uses a similar hack as in the ELF linker. Here, it moves crtend.o
to the end of the vector of object files. This makes sure that
terminator chunks for sections such as .eh_frame gets ordered last,
fixing DWARF exception handling for libgcc and gcc's crtend.o.

When GNU tools create a weak alias, they produce a strong symbol
named .weak.<weaksymbol>.<relatedstrongsymbol>.
GNU ld allows many such weak alternatives for the same weak symbol, and
the linker picks the first one encountered.
This can't be reproduced by assembling from .s files, since llvm-mc
produces symbols named .weak.<weaksymbol>.default in these cases.

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.

GNU binutils import libraries aren't the same kind of short import
libraries as link.exe and LLD produce, but are a plain static library
containing .idata section chunks. MSVC link.exe can successfully link
to them.
In order for imports from GNU import libraries to mix properly with the
normal import chunks, the chunks from the existing mechanism needs to
be added into named sections like .idata$2.
These GNU import libraries consist of one header object, a number of
object files, one for each imported function/variable, and one trailer.
Within the import libraries, the object files are ordered alphabetically
in this order. The chunks stemming from these libraries have to be
grouped by what library they originate from and sorted, to make sure
the section chunks for headers and trailers for the lists are ordered
as intended. This is done on all sections named .idata$*, before adding
the synthesized chunks to them.

MinGW configurations don't use associative comdats, as GNU ld doesn't
support that. Instead they produce normal comdats named .text$sym,
.xdata$sym and .pdata$sym.
GNU ld doesn't discard any comdats starting with .xdata or .pdata,
even if --gc-sections is used (while it does discard other unreferenced
comdats), regardless of what symbol name is used after the $ separator.
For LLD, treat any such comdat as implicitly associative to the base
symbol. This requires maintaining a map from symbol name to section
number, but that is only maintained when the MinGW flag has been
enabled.

This patch changes relative path for source files in obj files to
absolute path in PDB when linking with added flag.
I will make obj file generated by clang-cl independent from build
directory for chromium build. But I don't want to confuse visual studio
debugger or require additional configuration. To attain this goal, I
added flag to convert relative source file path in obj to absolute path
when emitting PDB.
By removing absolute path from obj files, we can share build cache
between chromium developers even when they are doing debug build.
That will make build time faster.

Future symbol insertions can potentially change the type of these
symbols - keep pointers to the base class to reflect this, and
use dynamic casts to inspect them before using as the subclass
type.
This fixes crashes that were possible before, by touching these
symbols that now are populated as e.g. a DefinedRegular, via
the old pointers with DefinedImportThunk type.

The reference implementation uses a case-insensitive string
comparison for strings of equal length. This will cause the
string "tEo" to compare less than "VUo". However we were using
a case sensitive comparison, which would generate the opposite
outcome. Switch to a case insensitive comparison. Also, when
one of the strings contains non-ascii characters, fallback to
a straight memcmp.
The only way to really test this is with a DIA test. Before this
patch, the test will fail (but succeed if link.exe is used instead
of lld-link). After the patch, it succeeds even with lld-link.

It seems like the debugger first computes a symbol's bucket,
and then does a binary search of entries in the bucket using the
symbol's name in order to find it. If the bucket entries are not
in sorted order, this obviously won't work. After this patch a
couple of simple test cases show that we generate an exactly
identical GSI hash stream, which is very nice.

Summary:
Control flow guard works best when targets it checks are 16-byte aligned.
Microsoft's link.exe helps ensure this by aligning code from sections
that are referenced from the gfids table to 16 bytes when linking with
-guard:cf, even if the original section specifies a smaller alignment.
This change implements that behavior in lld-link.

Previously we emitted 20-byte SHA1 hashes. This is overkill
for identifying debug info records, and has the negative side
effect of making object files bigger and links slower. By
using only the last 8 bytes of a SHA1, we get smaller object
files and ~10% faster links.
This modifies the format of the .debug$H section by adding a new
value for the hash algorithm field, so that the linker will still
work when its object files have an old format.

Natvis is a debug language supported by Visual Studio for
specifying custom visualizers. The /NATVIS option is an
undocumented link.exe flag which will take a .natvis file
and "inject" it into the PDB. This way, you can ship the
debug visualizers for a program along with the PDB, which
is very useful for postmortem debugging.
This is implemented by adding a new "named stream" to the
PDB with a special name of /src/files/<natvis file name>
and simply copying the contents of the xml into this file.
Additionally, we need to emit a single stream named
/src/headerblock which contains a hash table of embedded
files to records describing them.
This patch adds this functionality, including the /NATVIS
option to lld-link.

locality.

These tests started failing because we now properly convert
DefRange records to and from Yaml, but there were some old yaml
files that had incorrect record definitions generated by the
old buggy obj2yaml. Rather than try to re-generate the yaml files,
it's easier to just remove the records, and they weren't necessary
for the proper execution of the test anyway.
llvm-svn: 322040
The problem was that our Obj -> Yaml dumper had not been taught
to handle certain types of records. This meant that when I
generated the test input files, the records were still there but
none of its fields were filled out. So when it did the
Yaml -> Obj conversion as part of the test, it generated records
with garbage in them.
The patch here fixes the Obj <-> Yaml converter, and additionally
updates the test file with fresh Yaml generated by the fixed
converter.

This is not a record type that clang currently generates,
but it is a record that is encountered in object files generated
by cl. This record is unusual in that it refers directly to
the string table instead of indirectly to the string table via
the FileChecksums table. Because of this, it was previously
overlooked and we weren't remapping the string indices at all.
This would lead to crashes in MSVC when trying to display a
variable whose debug info involved an S_FILESTATIC.

loaded prior to the imported version, then the linker will fail to
resolve the definition of the thunk and return the locally defined
