That was requested by Mark Kettenis in llvm-dev:
"It is the intention that .openbsd.randomdata sections are made
read-only after initialization. The native (ld.bfd based) OpenBSD
toolchain accomplishes this by including .openbsd.randomdata into the
PT_GNU_RELRO segment."
He suggested code change, I added testcase.

Previously, some errors that were checked before we set to
Config->ColorDiagnostics weren't colored. This patch moves the code
to set the variable so that such error messages are colored just like
other error messages.

That variable was of type DenseMap<StringRef, unsigned>, but the
unsigned numbers needed to be monotonicly increasing numbers because
the implementation that used the variable depended on that fact.
That was an implementation detail and shouldn't have leaked into Config.
This patch simplifies its type to std::vector<StringRef>.

This handles all the corner cases if setting a section address:
- If the address is too low, we cannot allocate the program headers.
- If the load address is lowered, we have to do that before finalize
This also shares some code with the linker script since it was already
hitting similar cases.
This is used by the freebsd boot loader. It is not clear if we need to
support this with a non binary output, but it is not as bad as I was
expecting.

--retain-symbols-file=filename
Retain only the symbols listed in the file filename, discarding all others.
filename is simply a flat file, with one symbol name per line. This option
is especially useful in environments (such as VxWorks) where a large global
symbol table is accumulated gradually, to conserve run-time memory.
Note: though documentation says "--retain-symbols-file does not discard
undefined symbols, or symbols needed for relocations.", both bfd and gold
do that, and this patch too, like testcase show.

AArch64 TLSDESC for local symbol in shared objects are implemented in a
arch specific manner where the TLSDESC dynamic relocation addend is the
symbol VM inside the TLS block. For instance, with a shared library
created from the code:
--
static __thread int32_t x1;
static __thread int64_t x2;
int32_t foo1 (int32_t x)
{
x1 += x;
return x;
}
int64_t foo2 (int64_t x)
{
x2 += x;
return x;
}
--
The dynamic relocation should be create as:
Relocations [
Section (N) .rela.dyn {
<Address1> R_AARCH64_TLSDESC - 0x0
<Address2> R_AARCH64_TLSDESC - 0x8
}
]
Where 0x0 addend in first dynamic relocation is the address of 'x1'
in TLS block and '0x8' is the address of 'x2'.
Checked against test-suite on aarch64-linux-gnu.

Use of CachedHashStringRef makes sense only when we reuse hash values.
Sprinkling it to all DenseMap has no benefits and just complicates data types.
Basically we shouldn't use CachedHashStringRef unless there is a strong
reason to to do so.

I thought for a while about how to remove it, but it looks like we
can just copy the file for now. Of course I'm not happy about that,
but it's just less than 50 lines of code, and we already have
duplicate code in Error.h and some other places. I want to solve
them all at once later.

File system operations were still dominating the profile on Windows. In this

It os used in work/emulators/qemu-user-static port.
Which tries to use -Ttext-segment and then:
# In case ld does not support -Ttext-segment, edit the default linker
# script via sed to set the .text start addr. This is needed on FreeBSD
# at least.
<here it calls -verbose to extract and edit default bfd linker script.>
Actually now we are do not fully support -Ttext properly (see D27613),
but we also seems never will provide anything close to default script, like bfd do,
so at least this patch introduces proper alias handling.

PR31335 shows that we do that in next case:
SECTIONS { .text 0x2000 : {. = 0x100 ; *(.text) } }
though documentations says that "If . is used inside a section
description however, it refers to the byte offset from the start
of that section, not an absolute address. " looks does not work
as documented in bfd (as mentioned in comments for PR31335).
Until we find out the expected behavior was suggested at least not
to 'crash', what we do after trying to generate huge file.

Profiling revealed that the majority of lld's execution time on Windows was
spent opening and mapping input files. We can reduce this cost significantly
by performing these operations asynchronously.
This change introduces a queue for all operations on input file data. When
we discover that we need to load a file (for example, when we find a lazy
archive for an undefined symbol, or when we read a linker directive to
load a file from disk), the file operation is launched using a future and
the symbol resolution operation is enqueued. This implies another change
to symbol resolution semantics, but it seems to be harmless ("ninja All"
in Chromium still succeeds).
To measure the perf impact of this change I linked Chromium's chrome_child.dll
with both thin and fat archives.
Thin archives:
Before (median of 5 runs): 19.50s
After: 10.93s
Fat archives:
Before: 12.00s
After: 9.90s
On Linux I found that doing this asynchronously had a negative effect on
performance, probably because the cost of mapping a file is small enough that
it becomes outweighed by the cost of managing the futures. So on non-Windows
platforms I use the deferred execution strategy.

`SC` didn't make much sense. We don't seem to have a clear convention,
but `IS` sounds good here because it emphasizes that it is an input
section (this is one place in the code where we are dealing with both
input sections and output sections at the same time so that extra
emphasis makes it a bit clearer).

Remove the includes of <llvm/Config/config.h> private LLVM header.
The relevant files seem not to use any definitions from that file,
and it is not available when building against installed LLVM.
The use in lib/ReaderWriter/MachO/MachOLinkingContext.cpp originates
from rL218718, and the use in ELF/Strings.cpp from rL274804 (where it
was moved from Symbols.cpp). In both cases, they were added as a part of
demangling support, and they provided HAVE_CXXABI_H.
Since we are now using the LLVM demangler library instead, the code was
removed and the includes and no longer necessary.

The eglibc library, as used by Ubuntu 14.04 requires the presence of an
SHT_ARM_ATTRIBUTES section in for the purposes of checking hard/soft float
compatibility when dlopen() is used. Unfortunately when the section is not
present dlopen() fails with a generic could not find file message.
This change makes lld keep the first .ARM.attributes section that it
encounters and propagates it to the output. This is not a complete
SHT_ARM_ATTRIBUTES implementation, that would involve reading the contents
of the section and joining each individual attribute. It should suffice
for a homogenous build all libraries and executables on the same system
with a compatible set of command line options.

When compiling -fpie and linking with the --pie option the R_ARM_GOTBREL
relocation to D is resolved by writing the value of D into the .got slot
and emitting an R_ARM_RELATIVE relocation for it.
This changes adds the R_ARM_RELATIVE relocation to the switch in
relocateOne() so we can process the GotSection relocation to write the
value of the variable as well as emitting the dynamic relocation.

Enable building lld as a standalone project. This is motivated by the desire to
package lld for inclusion in a linux distribution. This allows building lld
against an existing paired llvm installation. Now that lld is usable on x86_64,
it makes sense to revive this configuration to allow distributions to package
it.

This patch replaces the symbol table's object and archive queues, as well as
the convergent loop in the linker driver, with a design more similar to the
ELF linker where symbol resolution directly causes input files to be added to
the link, including input files arising from linker directives. Effectively
this removes the last vestiges of the old parallel input file loader.
