It was a badly specified hack for when a tls relocation should be
propagated to the dynamic relocation table.
This replaces it with a not as bad hack of saying that a local dynamic
tls relocation is never preempted.

SymbolBody constructor and friends take isFunc and isTLS boolean arguments.
ELF symbols have already a type so than be easily passed as argument.
If we want to support another type, this scheme is not good enough, that is,
the current code logic would require passing another `bool isObject` around.
Up to two argument, this stretching exercise was a little bit goofy but
still acceptable, but with more types to support, is just too much, IMHO.
Change the code so that the type is passed instead.

For shared libraries we allow any weak undefined symbol to eventually be
resolved, even if we never see a definition in another .so. This matches

"Discarded" section is a marker for discarded sections, and we do not
use the instance except for checking its identity. In that sense, it
is just another type of a "null" pointer for InputSectionBase. So,
it doesn't have to be a real instance of InputSectionBase class.
In this patch, we no longer instantiate Discarded section but instead
use -1 as a pointer value. This eliminates a global variable which
needed initialization at startup.

There is nothing aarch64 specific in here. If a symbol can be preempted,
we need to copy the full relocation to the dynamic linker.
If a symbol cannot be preempted, we can make the dynamic linker life

This patch fixes the R_AARCH64_ABS64 relocation when used in shared mode,

Each rule in SECTIONS commands is something like ".foo *(.baz.*)",
which instructs the linker to collect all sections whose name matches
".baz.*" from all files and put them into .foo section.
Previously, we didn't recognize the wildcard character. This patch
adds that feature.
Performance impact is a bit concerning because a linker script can
contain hundreds of SECTIONS rules, and doing pattern matching against
each rule would be too expensive. We could merge all patterns into
single DFA so that it takes O(n) to the input size. However, it is
probably too much at this moment -- we don't know whether the
performance of pattern matching matters or not. So I chose to
implement the simplest algorithm in this patch. I hope this simple
pattern matcher is sufficient.

They don't count for the memory or file size, so this is mostly just a
simplification.
The only noticeable difference should be fewer empty program headers.
llvm-svn: 260465
IMHO this makes the code easier to read and should help with linker
scripts.
This is strongly based on D16575. The main differences are:
We record a range of sections, not every section in a program header.
scanHeaders takes case of deciding what goes in every program header,
including PT_GNU_RELRO
We create dummy sections for the start of the file
With this, program header creation has 3 isolated stages:
Map sections to program headers.
Assign addresses to *sections*
Looking at sections find the address and size of each program header.

This is the function equivalent of a copy relocation.
Since functions are expected to change sizes, we cannot use copy
relocations. In situations where one would be needed, what is done
instead is:
* Create a plt entry
* Output an undefined symbol whose addr is the plt entry.
The dynamic linker makes sure any shared library uses the plt entry as
the function address.

Previously, it was easy to leave some Out<ELFT> fields uninitialized

Another case where we currently have almost duplicated code is the
creation of dynamic relocations. First to decide if we need one, then to
decide what to write.
This patch fixes it by passing more information from the relocation scan
to the section writing code. This is the same idea used for r258723.
I actually think it should be possible to simplify this further by
reordering things a bit in the writer. For example, we should be able to
represent almost every position in the file with an OutputSeciton and
offset. When writing it out we then just need to add the offset to the
OutputSection VA.

This avoids the need to have reserve and addString in sync.

In many situations, we don't want to exit at the first error even in the
process model. For example, it is better to report all undefined symbols
rather than reporting the first one that the linker picked up randomly.
In order to handle such errors, we don't need to wrap everything with
ErrorOr (thanks for David Blaikie for pointing this out!) Instead, we
can set a flag to record the fact that we found an error and keep it
going until it reaches a reasonable checkpoint.
This idea should be applicable to other places. For example, we can
ignore broken relocations and check for errors after visiting all relocs.
In this patch, I rename error to fatal, and introduce another version of
error which doesn't call exit. That function instead sets HasError to true.
Once HasError becomes true, it stays true, so that we know that there
was an error if it is true.
I think introducing a non-noreturn error reporting function is by itself
a good idea, and it looks to me that this also provides a gradual path
towards lld-as-a-library (or at least embed-lld-to-your-program) without
sacrificing code readability with lots of ErrorOr's.

Some MIPS relocation (for now R_MIPS_GOT16) requires creation of GOT
entries for symbol not included in the dynamic symbol table. They are
local symbols and non-local symbols with 'local' visibility. Local GOT
entries occupy continuous block between GOT header and regular GOT
entries.
The patch adds initial support for handling local GOT entries. The main
problem is allocating local GOT entries for local symbols. Such entries
should be initialized by high 16-bit of the symbol value. In ideal world
there should be no duplicated entries with the same values. But at the
moment of the `Writer::scanRelocs` call we do not know a value of the
symbol. In this patch we create new local GOT entry for each relocation
against local symbol, though we can exhaust GOT quickly. That needs to
be optimized later. When we calculate relocation we know a final symbol
value and request local GOT entry index. To do that we maintain map
between addresses and local GOT entry indexes. If we start to calculate
relocations in parallel we will have to serialize access to this map.

String tables in unstripped executable files are fairly large in size.
For example, lld's executable file is about 34.4 MB in my environment,
and of which 3.5 MB is the string table. Efficiency of string table
construction matters.
Previously, the string table was built in an inefficient way. We used
StringTableBuilder to build that and enabled string tail merging,
although tail merging is not effective for the symbol table (you can
only make the string table 0.3% smaller for lld.) Tail merging is
computation intensive task and slow.
This patch eliminates string tail merging.
I changed the way of adding strings to the string table in this patch
too. Previously, strings were added using add() and the same strings
were then passed to getOffset() to get their offsets in the string table.
In this way, getOffset() needs to look up a hash table to get offsets
for given strings. This is a violation of "we look up the symbol table
(or a hash table) only once for each symbol" dogma of the new LLD's
design. Hash table lookup for long C++ mangled names is slow.
I eliminated that lookup in this patch.
In total, this patch improves link time of lld itself about 12%
(3.50 seconds -> 3.08 seconds.)

There are 3 symbol types that a .bc can provide during lto: defined,

Defined and undefined symbols have already been refactored. I was
working on common and noticed that absolute symbols would become an
oddity: They would be the only symbol type present in a .o but not in
a.bc.
Looking a bit more, other than the special section number they were only
used for special rules for computing values. In that way they are
similar to TLS, and we don't have a DefinedTLS.
This patch deletes it. With it we have a reasonable rule of the thumb
for having a symbol kind: It exists if it has special resolution

an error if the referenced variable is not defined or it is not code for the executable
itself. No GOT entry is created in this case.
* @ntpoff Calculate the negative offset of the variable it is added to relative to the static TLS block.
The operator must be used to compute an immediate value. The linker will report
an error if the referenced variable is not defined or it is not code for the executable
itself. No GOT entry is created in this case.

In the previous patch (r254003), I made the linker emit PT_GNU_STACK
unconditionally. But sometimes you want to have a control over the
presence of the segment. With this patch, you can omit the segment
by passing -z execstack option.

Partial (-z relro) and full (-z relro, -z now) relro cases are implemented.
Partial relro:
The ELF sections are reordered so that the ELF internal data sections (.got, .dtors, etc.) precede the program's data sections (.data and .bss).
.got is readonly, .got.plt is still writeable.
Full relro:
Supports all the features of partial RELRO, .got.plt is also readonly.

With this patch, lld creates PT_GNU_STACK segments only when all input
files have .note.GNU-stack sections. This is in line with other linkers
with a minor difference (we don't care about .note.GNU-stack rwx bits as
you can always remove .note.GNU-stack sections instead of setting x bit.)
At least, NetBSD loader does not understand PT_GNU_STACK segments and
reject any executables that have the section. This patch makes lld
compatible with such operating systems.
llvm-svn: 253797
PT_GNU_STACK is a entry in the elf file format which contains the access rights (read, write, execute) of the stack,
it is always generated now. By default stack is not executable in this implementation.
-z execstack can be used to make executable.

The MIPS target requires specific dynamic section entries to be defined.
* DT_MIPS_RLD_VERSION and DT_MIPS_FLAGS store predefined values.
* DT_MIPS_BASE_ADDRESS holds base VA.
* DT_MIPS_LOCAL_GOTNO holds the number of local GOT entries.
* DT_MIPS_SYMTABNO holds the number of .dynsym entries.
* DT_MIPS_GOTSYM holds the index of the .dynsym entry
which corresponds to the first entry of the global part of GOT.
* DT_MIPS_RLD_MAP holds the address of the reserved space in the data segment.
* DT_MIPS_PLTGOT points to the .got.plt section if it exists.
* DT_PLTGOT holds the address of the GOT section.

This adds support for:
* Uniquing CIEs
* Dropping FDEs that point to dropped sections
It drops 657 488 bytes from the .eh_frame of a Release+Asserts clang.
The link time impact is smallish. Linking clang with a Release+Asserts
lld goes from 0.488064805 seconds to 0.504763060 seconds (1.034 X slower).

GNU as can give it type SHT_PROGBITS or SHT_X86_64_UNWIND depending on
teh construct.
MC gives it type SHT_X86_64_UNWIND.
The linker has to canonicalize to one or the other so that there is only
one .eh_frame in the end.

leaq symbol@tlsld(%rip), %rdi
call __tls_get_addr@plt
symbol@tlsld (R_X86_64_TLSLD) instructs the linker to generate a tls_index entry (two GOT slots) in the GOT for the entire module (shared object or executable) with an offset of 0. The symbol for this GOT entry doesn't matter (as long as it's either local to the module or null), and gold doesn't put a symbol in the dynamic R_X86_64_DTPMOD64 relocation for the GOT entry.
All other platforms defined in http://www.akkadia.org/drepper/tls.pdf except for Itanium use a similar model where global and local dynamic GOT entries take up 2 contiguous GOT slots, so we can handle this in a unified manner if we don't care about Itanium.
While scanning relocations we need to identify local dynamic relocations and generate a single tls_index entry in the GOT for the module and store the address of it somewhere so we can later statically resolve the offset for R_X86_64_TLSLD relocations. We also need to generate a R_X86_64_DTPMOD64 relocation in the RelaDyn relocation section.
This implementation is a bit hacky. It side steps the issue of GotSection and RelocationSection only handling SymbolBody entries by relying on a specific relocation type. The alternative to this seemed to be completely rewriting how GotSection and RelocationSection work, or using a different hacky signaling method.

This is cleaner than computing relocations as if we had done it.
While at it, keep a single Phdr variable instead of multiple fields of it.
