Summary:
The COFF linker and the ELF linker have long had similar but separate
Error.h and Error.cpp files to implement error handling. This change
introduces new error handling code in Common/ErrorHandler.h, changes the
COFF and ELF linkers to use it, and removes the old, separate
implementations.

r315292 introduced a change that's supposed to consistently ignore
"dead" output sections when placing orphans. Unfortunately, that
change doesn't handle the special case when the orphan section is
second to last section and the last section is dead (e.g. because
it's being discarded) introducing a regression in some cases.
This change handles this case by using the same predicate when
checking the last section.

Summary:
This will allow using the functionality from other linkers. It is also
a prerequisite for sharing the error logging code.

"Commands" was ambiguous because in the linker script, everything is
a command. We used to handle only SECTIONS commands, and at the time,
it might make sense to call them the commands, but it is no longer
the case. We handle not only SECTIONS but also MEMORY, PHDRS, VERSION,
etc., and they are all commands.
llvm-svn: 315409
HasSections is true if there is at least one SECTIONS linker
script command, and it is not directly related to whether we have
section objects or not. So I think the new name is better.

ScriptConfiguration was a class to contain parsed results of
linker scripts. LinkerScript is a class to interpret it.
That ditinction was needed because we haven't instantiated
LinkerScript early (because, IIRC, LinkerScript class was a
ELFT template function). So, when we parse linker scripts,
we couldn't directly store the result to a LinkerScript instance.
Now, that limitation is gone. We instantiate LinkerScript
at the very beginning of our main function. We can directly
store parse results to a LinkerScript instance.

We just don't need one with the current setup.
We only error on undefined references that are used by some
relocation.
If we managed to relax all uses of __tls_get_addr, no relocation uses
it and we don't produce an error.
This is less code and fixes the case were we fail to relax. Before we
would produce a broken output, but now we produce an error.

When findOrphanPos does the reverse search to find the OutputSection
preceding the orphan's insertion point, look for a live OutputSection
and ignore "dead" OutputSection's. This matches the behaviour of the
forward search performed earlier in this function.
Added test which without the above fix fails as a result of an orphan
executable section being incorrectly placed in a non-executable segment.

Factory::addInputSec added an output section to Script->Opt.Commands,
but that is too subtle. This patch makes it explicit so that it is easy
to see when a new element is added to Script->Opt.Commands.

addSection function was hard to read because it behaves differently
depending on its arguments but what exactly it does is not clear.
Now it should be better. Still, it is not clear (not what but) why
it does what it does, but I'll take a look at it later.

This reverts commit r314616 because nested parallel-for loops can hang.
Our ThreadPoolExecutor is not necessarily able to handle nested calls.

We used to call exitLld() from a leaf function, Writer::run(), because
we had objects on the stack whose dtors are expensive. Now we no longer
have such objects on the stack, so there's no reason to exist from the
leaf function.
llvm-svn: 314869
Currently LLD calls the `isMicroMips` routine to determine type of PLT entries
needs to be generated: regular or microMIPS. This routine checks ELF
header flags in the `FirstObj` to retrieve type of linked object files.
So if the first file does not contain microMIPS code, LLD will generate
PLT entries with regular (non-microMIPS) code only.
Ideally, if a PLT entry is referenced by microMIPS code only this entry
should contain microMIPS code, if a PLT entry is referenced by regular
code this entry should contain regular code. In a "mixed" case the PLT
entry can be either microMIPS or regular, but each "cross-mode-call" has
additional cost.
It's rather difficult to implement this ideal solution. But we can
assume that if there is an input object file with microMIPS code, the
most part of the code is microMIPS too. So we need to deduce type of PLT
entries based on finally calculated ELF header flags and do not check
only the first input object file.
This change implements this.
- The `getMipsEFlags` renamed to the `calcMipsEFlags`. The function
called from the `LinkerDriver::link`. Result is stored in
the Configuration::MipsEFlags field.
- The `isMicroMips` and `isMipsR6` routines access the `MipsEFlags`
field to get and check calculated ELF flags.
- New types of PLT records created when necessary.

That makes code a bit more consistent. Instead of removing sections there
we can just mark them as dead. So that removeEmptyCommands() will
handle the rest.

I don't know why we didn't use parallelForEach to call writeTo,
but there should be no reason to not do that, as most writeTo
functions are safe to run concurrently.

Previously`InX::Got` and InX::MipsGot synthetic sections
were not removed if ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable was defined.
ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable is a symbol for _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_.
Patch moves ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable check out from removeUnusedSyntheticSections.
Also note that there was no point to check ElfSym::GlobalOffsetTable for MIPS case
because InX::MipsGot::empty() always returns false for non-relocatable case, and in case
of relocatable output we do not create special symbols anyways.

The previous logic was to try to detect if a linker script defined _gp
by checking !ElfSym::MipsGp->Value. That doesn't work in all cases as
the assigned value can be 0.
We now just always defined it Writer.cpp and always overwrite it
afterwards if needed.

Given a linker script that ends in
.some_sec { ...} ;
__stack_start = .;
. = . + 0x2000;
__stack_end = .;
lld would put orphan sections like .comment before __stack_end,
corrupting the intended meaning.
The reason we don't normally move orphans past assignments to . is to
avoid breaking
rx_sec : { *(rx_sec) }
. = ALIGN(0x1000);
/* The RW PT_LOAD starts here*/
but in this case, there is nothing after and it seems safer to put the
orphan section last. This seems to match bfd's behavior and is
convenient for writing linker scripts that care about the layout of
SHF_ALLOC sections, but not of any non SHF_ALLOC sections.

This patch removes lot of static Instances arrays from different input file
classes and introduces global arrays for access instead. Similar to arrays we
have for InputSections/OutputSectionCommands.
It allows to iterate over input files in a non-templated code.

This fixes pr34301.
As the bug points out, we want to keep some relocations with undefined
weak symbols. This means that we cannot always claim that these
symbols are not preemptible as we do now.
Unfortunately, we cannot also just always claim that they are
preemptible. Doing so would, for example, cause us to try to create a
plt entry when we don't even have a dynamic symbol table.
What almost works is to say that weak undefined symbols are
preemptible if and only if we have a dynamic symbol table. Almost
because we don't want to fail the build trying to create a copy
relocation to a weak undefined.
llvm-svn: 313372
_gp points to a position in the file, so it is not really absolute. It
is also simpler to not force it to be absolute, so if there is no
strong ABI requirement we should not do it.
llvm-svn: 313333
There is no need to scan over all input sections for relocatable output.
As we do not process or scan relocations anyways.
Patch moves check for Config->Relocatable out to avoid that and also removes
excessive check for isa<EhInputSection> from first for loop.
It is excessive because we handle all of them in a second for loop below.
That all allowed to simplify code.

This allows combining --dynamic-list and version scripts too. The
version script controls which symbols are visible, and
--dynamic-list controls which of those are preemptible.
Unlike previous versions, undefined symbols are still considered
preemptible, which was the issue breaking the cfi tests.
This fixes pr34053.

to separate commons based on file name patterns. The following linker script
construct does not work because commons are allocated before section placement
is done and the only synthesized BssSection that holds all commons has no file
associated with it:
SECTIONS { .common_0 : { *file0.o(COMMON) }}
This patch changes the allocation of commons to create a section per common
symbol and let the section logic do the layout.
