This should fix the lto bootstrap.
It is somewhat hard to remember about lazy symbols deep down in the
link. It might be worth it replacing them with undefined symbols once
we are done adding files.

https://reviews.llvm.org/rL312796 meant that references to garbage collected common symbols would cause a segfault.
This change fixes the behaviour for references to stripped common symbols.

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.

Liveness is usually a notion of input sections, but this patch adds
"liveness" bit to common symbols because they don't belong to any
input section.

This is probably a small optimization, but the main motivation is
having a way of fixing pr34053 that doesn't require a hash lookup in
isPreempitible.

With this Symbol has the same size as before, but DefinedRegular goes
from 72 to 64 bytes.
I also find this a bit easier to read. There are fewer places
initializing File for example.
This has a small but measurable speed improvement on all tests (1%
max).

With fix for undefined weak symbols in executable.
Original commit message:
This is PR32112. Previously when we linked executable with
--unresolved-symbols=ignore-all and undefined symbols, like:
_start:
callq und@PLT
we did not create relocations, though it looks in that case
we should delegate handling of such symbols to runtime linker,
hence should emit them. Patch fixes that.

Before we were doing it with --export-dynamic. That seems incorrect.
The intention of --export-dynamic is to export symbols *defined* in
the executable.

PT_TLS is a type of program header, so we wouldn't expect to see
one in an object file. This error should probably be referring to
the fact that we didn't see a section with the flag SHF_TLS, which
would normally cause us to create a PT_TLS program header.

This is PR28414.
Previously LLD was unable to link following:
(failed with undefined symbol bar)
Version script:
SOME_VERSION { global: *; };
.global _start
.global bar
.symver _start, bar@@SOME_VERSION
_start:
jmp bar
Manual has next description:
.symver name, name2@@nodename
In this case, the symbol name must exist and be defined within the file being assembled. It is similar to name2@nodename.
The difference is name2@@nodename will also be used to resolve references to name2 by the linker
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/as/Symver.html
Patch implements that. If we have name@@ver symbol and name is undefined, name@@ver is used to resolve references to name.
If name is defined then multiple definition error is emited, that is consistent with what bfd do.

We could have add this function either Symbol or SymbolBody. I added it
to Symbol at first. But I noticed that if I've added it to SymbolBody,
we could've removed SymbolBody::setName(). So I'll do that in this patch.

Most "reserved" symbols are in ElfSym and it looks like there's no
reason to not do the same thing for _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_. This should
help https://reviews.llvm.org/D34618 too.

Before InputSectionBase had an OutputSection pointer, but that was not
always valid. For example, if it was a merge section one actually had
to look at MergeSec->OutSec.
This was brittle and caused bugs like the one fixed by r304260.
We now have a single Parent pointer that points to an OutputSection
for InputSection, but to a SyntheticSection for merge sections and
.eh_frame. This makes it impossible to accidentally access an invalid
OutSec.

GNU linkers define __bss_start symbol.
Patch teaches LLD to do that. This is PR32051.
Below is part of standart ld.bfd script:
.data1 : { *(.data1) }
_edata = .; PROVIDE (edata = .);
. = .;
__bss_start = .;
.bss :
{
Currently LLD can emit up to 3 .bss* sections as one of testcase shows.
Implementation inserts this symbol before first .bss* output section.

That removes CopyRelSection class completely, making
Bss/BssRelRo to be just regular synthetics.
This is splitted from D30541 and polished.
Difference from D30541 that all logic of SharedSymbol
converting to DefinedRegular was removed for now and
probably will be posted as separate patch.

With this we have a single section hierarchy. It is a bit less code,
but the main advantage will be in a future patch being able to handle
foo = symbol_in_obj;
in a linker script. Currently that fails since we try to find the
output section of symbol_in_obj. With this we should be able to just
return an InputSection from the expression.

In compare with D30458, this makes Bss/BssRelRo to be pure
synthetic sections.
That removes CopyRelSection class completely, making
Bss/BssRelRo to be just regular synthetics.
SharedSymbols involved in creating copy relocations are
converted to DefinedRegular, what also simplifies things.

There are many special cases and a layer of abstraction or two in the
way, but the VA calculation in the typical case is actually very simple
and probably makes perfect sense even to somebody new to linkers.
Also, this line brings together many components and is a good place to
start understanding the linker (or improve one's existing
understanding).

Naively it seemed at first like getVA had the responsibility of adding
the addend, and getSymVA had the responsibility of getting the symbol
VA.
So it was not obvious to me at first why getVA passes Addend to
getSymVA. In fact, it passes it as a mutable reference.
It turns out that it only matters for SHF_MERGE sections, and in
particular only for STT_SECTION symbols that are used as a hack for
reducing the number of local symbols (e.g. to avoid a local symbol for
each string in the string table).
llvm-svn: 296448
That function doesn't use any member of SymbolTableSection, so I
couldn't see a reason to make it a member of that class. The function
takes a SymbolBody, so it is more natural to make it a member of
SymbolBody.
