The LTO code generator happens after version script scanning and may
create references which will fetch some lazy symbols.
Currently a version script does not assign VER_NDX_LOCAL to lazy symbols
and such symbols will be made global after they are fetched.
Change findByVersion and findAllByVersion to work on lazy symbols.
For unfetched lazy symbols, we should keep them non-local (D35263).
Check isDefined() in computeBinding() as a compensation.
This patch fixes a companion bug that --dynamic-list does not export

Summary:
Linker scripts allow filenames to be put in double quotes to prevent
characters in filenames that are part of the linker script syntax from
having their special meaning. Case in point the * wildcard character.
Availability of double quoting filenames also allows to fix a failure in
ELF/linkerscript/filename-spec.s when the path contain a @ which the
lexer consider as a special characters and thus break up a filename
containing it. This may happens under Jenkins which createspath such as
pipeline@2.
To avoid the need for escaping GlobPattern metacharacters in filename
in double quotes, GlobPattern::create is augmented with a new parameter
to request literal matching instead of relying on the presence of a
wildcard character in the pattern.

In Writer::includeInDynSym(), exportDynamic is used by a Defined with
protected or default visibility, to record whether it is required to be
exported into .dynsym. It is set when any of the following conditions
hold:
1) There is an interposable symbol from a DSO (Undefined or SharedSymbol with default visibility)
2) If -shared or --export-dynamic is specified, any symbol in an object file/bitcode sets this property, unless suppressed by canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable().
3) --dynamic-list when producing an executable
4) protected symbol from a DSO preempted by copy relocation/canonical PLT when
--ignore-{data,function}-address-equality is specified
5) ifunc is exported when -z ifunc-noplt is specified
Bullet points 4) and 5) are irrelevant in this patch.
Bullet 3) does not play well with 1) and 2). When -shared is specified,
exportDynamic of most symbols is true. This makes it incapable to record
--dynamic-list marked symbols. We thus have obscure:
if (!config->shared)
b->exportDynamic = true;
else if (b->includeInDynsym())
b->isPreemptible = true;
This patch adds another bit `Symbol::inDynamicList` to record

executable cases. It also allows us to simplify isPreemptible - now
the field is only used in finalizeSections() and later stages.

We prioritize non-* wildcards overs VER_NDX_LOCAL/VER_NDX_GLOBAL "*".
This patch generalizes the rule to "*" of other versions and thus fixes PR40176.
I don't feel strongly about this GNU linkers' behavior but the
generalization simplifies code.
Delete `config->defaultSymbolVersion` which was used to special case
VER_NDX_LOCAL/VER_NDX_GLOBAL "*".
In `SymbolTable::scanVersionScript`, custom versions are handled the same
way as VER_NDX_LOCAL/VER_NDX_GLOBAL. So merge
`config->versionScript{Locals,Globals}` into `config->versionDefinitions`.
Overall this seems to simplify the code.
In `SymbolTable::assign{Exact,Wildcard}Versions`,
`sym->verdefIndex == config->defaultSymbolVersion` is changed to
`verdefIndex == UINT32_C(-1)`.
This allows us to give duplicate assignment diagnostics for
`{ global: foo; };` `V1 { global: foo; };`
In test/linkerscript/version-script.s:
vs_index of an undefined symbol changes from 0 to 1. This doesn't matter (arguably 1 is better because the binding is STB_GLOBAL) because vs_index of an undefined symbol is ignored.

This fixes PR38549, which is silently accepted by ld.bfd.
This seems correct because it makes sense to let non-glob patterns take
precedence over glob patterns.
lld issues an error because
`assignWildcardVersion(ver, VER_NDX_LOCAL);` is processed before `assignExactVersion(ver, v.id, v.name);`.
Move all assignWildcardVersion() calls after assignExactVersion() calls
to fix this.
Also, move handleDynamicList() to the bottom. computeBinding() called by
includeInDynsym() has this cryptic rule:
if (versionId == VER_NDX_LOCAL && isDefined() && !isPreemptible)
return STB_LOCAL;
Before the change:
* foo's version is set to VER_NDX_LOCAL due to `local: *`
* handleDynamicList() is called
- foo.computeBinding() is STB_LOCAL
- foo.includeInDynsym() is false
- foo.isPreemptible is not set (wrong)

This patch is mechanically generated by clang-llvm-rename tool that I wrote
using Clang Refactoring Engine just for creating this patch. You can see the
source code of the tool at https://reviews.llvm.org/D64123. There's no manual
post-processing; you can generate the same patch by re-running the tool against
lld's code base.
Here is the main discussion thread to change the LLVM coding style:
https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-February/130083.html
In the discussion thread, I proposed we use lld as a testbed for variable
naming scheme change, and this patch does that.
I chose to rename variables so that they are in camelCase, just because that
is a minimal change to make variables to start with a lowercase letter.
Note to downstream patch maintainers: if you are maintaining a downstream lld
repo, just rebasing ahead of this commit would cause massive merge conflicts
because this patch essentially changes every line in the lld subdirectory. But
there's a remedy.
clang-llvm-rename tool is a batch tool, so you can rename variables in your
downstream repo with the tool. Given that, here is how to rebase your repo to
a commit after the mass renaming:
1. rebase to the commit just before the mass variable renaming,
2. apply the tool to your downstream repo to mass-rename variables locally, and
3. rebase again to the head.
Most changes made by the tool should be identical for a downstream repo and
for the head, so at the step 3, almost all changes should be merged and
disappear. I'd expect that there would be some lines that you need to merge by
hand, but that shouldn't be too many.

--{start,end}-lib give files grouped by the options the archive file
semantics. That is, each object file between them acts as if it were
in an archive file whose sole member is the file.
Therefore, files between --{start,end}-lib are linked to the final
output only if they are needed to resolve some undefined symbols.
Previously, the feature was implemented this way:
1. We read a symbol table and insert defined symbols to the symbol
table as lazy symbols.
2. If an undefind symbol is resolved to a lazy symbol, that lazy
symbol instantiate ObjFile class for that symbol, which re-insert
all defined symbols to the symbol table.
So, if an ObjFile is instantiated, defined symbols are inserted to the
symbol table twice. Since inserting long symbol names is not cheap,
there's a room to optimize here.
This patch optimzies it. Now, LazyObjFile remembers symbol handles and
passed them over to a new ObjFile instance, so that the ObjFile
doesn't insert the same strings.
Here is a quick benchmark to link clang. "Original" is the original
lld with unmodified command line options. For "Case 1" and "Case 2", I
extracted all files from archive files and replace .a's in a command
line with .o's wrapped with --{start,end}-lib. I used the original lld
for Case 1" and use this patch for Case 2.
Original: 5.892
Case 1: 6.001 (+1.8%)
Case 2: 5.701 (-3.2%)
So, interestingly, --{start,end}-lib are now faster than the regular
linking scheme with archive files. That's perhaps not too surprising,
though, because for regular archive files, we look up the symbol table
with the same string twice.

This is the last patch of the series of patches to make it possible to
resolve symbols without asking SymbolTable to do so.
The main point of this patch is the introduction of
`elf::resolveSymbol(Symbol *Old, Symbol *New)`. That function resolves
or merges given symbols by examining symbol types and call
replaceSymbol (which memcpy's New to Old) if necessary.
With the new function, we have now separated symbol resolution from
symbol lookup. If you already have a Symbol pointer, you can directly
resolve the symbol without asking SymbolTable to do that.
Now that the nice abstraction become available, I can start working on
performance improvement of the linker. As a starter, I'm thinking of
making --{start,end}-lib faster.
--{start,end}-lib is currently unnecessarily slow because it looks up
the symbol table twice for each symbol.
- The first hash table lookup/insertion occurs when we instantiate a
LazyObject file to insert LazyObject symbols.
- The second hash table lookup/insertion occurs when we create an
ObjFile from LazyObject file. That overwrites LazyObject symbols
with Defined symbols.
I think it is not too hard to see how we can now eliminate the second
hash table lookup. We can keep LazyObject symbols in Step 1, and then
call elf::resolveSymbol() to do Step 2.

SymbolTable's add-family functions have lots of parameters because
when they have to create a new symbol, they forward given arguments
to Symbol's constructors. Therefore, the functions take at least as
many arguments as their corresponding constructors.
This patch simplifies the add-family functions. Now, the functions
take a symbol instead of arguments to construct a symbol. If there's
no existing symbol, a given symbol is memcpy'ed to the symbol table.
Otherwise, the functions attempt to merge the existing and a given
new symbol.
I also eliminated `CanOmitFromDynSym` parameter, so that the functions
take really one argument.
Symbol classes are trivially constructible, so looks like constructing
them to pass to add-family functions is as cheap as passing a lot of
arguments to the functions. A quick benchmark showed that this patch
seems performance-neutral.

Summary:
In ld.bfd/gold, --no-allow-shlib-undefined is the default when linking
an executable. This patch implements a check to error on undefined
symbols in a shared object, if all of its DT_NEEDED entries are seen.
Our approach resembles the one used in gold, achieves a good balance to
be useful but not too smart (ld.bfd traces all DSOs and emulates the
behavior of a dynamic linker to catch more cases).
The error is issued based on the symbol table, different from undefined
reference errors issued for relocations. It is most effective when there
are DSOs that were not linked with -z defs (e.g. when static sanitizers
runtime is used).
gold has a comment that some system libraries on GNU/Linux may have
spurious undefined references and thus system libraries should be
excluded (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6811). The
story may have changed now but we make --allow-shlib-undefined the
default for now. Its interaction with -shared can be discussed in the
future.

This makes it a bit away from the position-dependent behavior (how
different occurrences of the same DSO interact) and protects us from
some mysterious runtime errors: if some interceptor libraries add their
own --no-as-needed dependencies (e.g. librt.so), and the user
application specifies -Wl,--as-needed -lrt , the absence of the
DT_NEEDED entry would make dlsym(RTLD_NEXT, "clock_gettime") return NULL

ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (as-needed) defines some symbols which resolve undefined references in libc.so.6, it will therefore be added as a DT_NEEDED entry, which isn't necessary.
The test case as-needed-not-in-regular.s emulates the libc.so scenario, where ld.bfd and gold don't add DT_NEEDED for a.so
The relevant code in gold/resolve.cc:
// If we have a non-WEAK reference from a regular object to a
// dynamic object, mark the dynamic object as needed.
if (to->is_from_dynobj() && to->in_reg() && !to->is_undef_binding_weak())
