This patch fixes the TLS initial executable for AArch64. Current
implementation have two issues: 1. does not generate dynamic
R_AARCH64_TLS_TPREL64 relocation for the external module symbols,
and 2. does not export the TLS initial executable symbol in dynamic
symbol table.
The fix follows the MIPS strategy to add a arch-specific GOTSection
class to keep track of TLS symbols required to be place in dynamic
symbol table. It also overrides the buildDynamicSymbolTable for
ExecutableWrite class to add the symbols.
It also adds some refactoring on AArch64RelocationPass.cpp based on ARM
backend.

This patch fixes the TLS local relocations alignment done by @238258.
As pointed out, the TLS size should not be considered, but rather the
TCB size based on maximum output segment alignment. Although it has
not shown in the TLS simple cases for test-suite, more comprehensible
tests with more local TLS variable showed wrong relocations values
being generated.
The local TLS testcase is expanded to add more tls variable (both
exported and static) initialized or not.

New MipsAbiInfoHandler merges and hold both ELF header flags
and registries usage masks. In the future commits it will manage some
additional information.

We do not need to merge ELF flags from DSO. But `isCompatible` is called
for all input files. So this change move ELF flags merging into the
MipsELFFile class.

This patch fixes the R_AARCH64_TLSLE_ADD_TPREL_HI12 and R_AARCH64_TLSLE_ADD_TPREL_LO12_NC
handling by using the correct offset by using the target layout along with
aarch64 alignments requirements.
It fixes the TLS test-suite SingleSource failures for aarch64:

* SingleSource/UnitTests/Threads/tls.execution_time

Original patch of Shankar Easwaran with additional test case.
The yaml2obj does not allow to create an object file with non-unique
sections names so the fix uses a binary input object file in the test
case.

These two serve different purpose:
PLTGOT entries are (usually) lazily resolved and serve as trampolines
to correctly call dynamically linked functions. They often have
R_*_JUMP_SLOT dynamic relocation type used.
Simple GOT entries hold other things, one of them may be
R_*_GLOB_DAT to correctly reference global and static data. This
is also used to hold dynamically linked function's address.
To properly handle cases when shared object's function is called
and at the same time its address is taken, we need to be able to have
both GOT and PLTGOT entries bearing different dynamic relocation types
for the same symbol.
llvm-svn: 238015
This is used when referencing global or static data in shared
objects. This is also used when function's address is taken and
function call is made indirectly.

This patch provides generation of .ARM.exidx & .ARM.extab sections which are
used for unwinding. The patch adds new content type typeARMExidx for atoms from
.ARM.exidx section and integration of atoms with such type to the ELF
ReaderWriter. exidx.test has been added with checking of contents of .ARM.exidx
section and .ARM.extab section.

Change the test so that it tests the right functionality.

I noticed that gold mark these as hidden. While at it I rewrote the test for

This patch allow the ARM relocation R_ARM_V4BX to be processed by lld,
although it is not really handled in the static relocation code. The
relocation is in the form:
Relocation section '.rel.text' at offset 0x428 contains 4 entries:
Offset Info Type Sym.Value Sym. Name
00000014 00000028 R_ARM_V4BX
Meaning it does have a direct target, but rather references to an absolute
section *ABS* (in this exemple to the .text segment itself). It makes the
target Atom after file parse to not have a associated pointer and thus
generating a derrefence NULL point in ELFFile<ELFT>::findAtom. Current
approach is just ignore and return nullptr in such cases.
The problem relies that default GCC configuration
for arm-linux-gnueabi{hf} emits the relocation for the asm:
--
.syntax unified
.arm
.p2align 2
.type fn, %function
fn:
ldr r3, .LGOT
ldr r2, .LGOT+4
.LPIC:
add r3, pc, r3
ldr r2, [r3, r2]
cmp r2, #0
bxeq lr
b __start__
.LGOT:
.word _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_-(.LPIC+8)
.word __start__(GOT)
--
But only with the option -march=armv4 (which is the default GCC configuration).
For arm5 and forward the relocation is not created. This a special relocation
(defined miscellaneous for ARM) that instruct the linker to replace the bx
instruction into a mov. GNU linker has some options related to which substitution
it can create for such cases.
With this patch I can dynamically link an application against a GLIBC
arm-linux-gnueabi system configured with default GCC.

loadFile could load mulitple files just because yaml has a feature for
putting multiple documents in one file.
Designing a linker around what yaml can do seems like a bad idea to
me. This patch changes it to read a single file.
There are further improvements to be done to the api and they
will follow shortly.

The TargetLayout class puts two sections into the same segment if they
have equal segment types and the same section flags (SHF_xxx). To be
able to merge some sort of sections into the same segment we drop some
flags before comparison. For example to merge string sections into Data
segment we drop SHF_STRINGS and SHF_MERGE flags.
The patch allows TargetLayout descendants to drop some target specific
section flags. MIPS target needs that to merge .MIPS.options section
which has SHF_MIPS_NOSTRIP flag into the LOAD segment.

The `OutputSection::appendSection()` method always gets a pointer
to the `Section` class descendants. So it is not necessary to keep them
in the vector of `Chunk` pointers.

There's (almost) never need to keep .L symbols around for production
builds. In fact, the FreeBSD kernel explicitly specify -X beacuse the
size impact (and the subsequent performance impact) might be significant,
because we keep symbols in memory.
I was tempted to make this the default, but I haven't (yet).

HexagonEncodings.h contains a list of bitmasks. The file is used
only by HexagonRelocationHandler.cpp. The header is odd in the sense
that it uses struct Instruction but it doesn't define the data type.
This patch moves the struct definition to the header.

This function is too long and complicated. Looks like new code was
added incrementaly without any refactoring. Maybe no one can describe
its exact semantics any more? It even contains copy-pastes inside it.
This patch is an (incomplete) attempt to simplify the function.
I tried to mechanically translate code to another form more intelligible.
I don't still understand the whole picture, but this patch shouldn't
change the linker's functionality.

That helps to correctly write content of hash table if target and host

We don't need to repeat the template argument. They are not
ambiguous. MIPS is parameterized for ELFT, so we can't do this
for MIPS, though.

This patch tries to fix the following MSVC warning.
warning C4661: 'bool
lld:🧝:ELFFile<lld:🧝:ELF32LE>::isCompatible(unsigned
char,unsigned char)' : no suitable definition provided for explicit
template instantiation request
llvm-svn: 234909
Previously, ELFReader takes three template arguments: EFLT,
LinkingContextT and FileT. FileT is itself templated.
So it was a bit complicated. Maybe too much.
Most architectures don't actually need to be parameterized for ELFT.
For example, x86 is always ELF32LE and x86-64 is ELF64LE.
However, because ELFReader requires a ELFT argument, we needed
to parameterize a class even if not needed.
This patch removes the parameter from the class. So now we can
de-templatize such classes (I didn't do that in this patch, though).
This patch also removes ContextT parameter since it didn't have to be
passed as a template argument.

The function took either StringRef or Twine. Since string literals are
ambiguous when resolving the overloading, many code calls used this
function with explicit type conversion. That led awkward code like
make_dynamic_error_code(Twine("Error occurred")).
This patch adds a function definition for string literals, so that
you can directly call the function with literals.

DynamicFile and ELFFile are instantiated for four different types,
ELF{32,64}{BE,LE}. Because the classes are instantiated in each
compilation unit, including the header file makes object files
10MB larger.
On Windows, issue of excessive template instantiation is critical,
since the regular COFF file supports only up to 65534 sections.
(We could use the extended COFF file format, but generating that
much COMDAT sections is not a good thing in the first place
because it means long compile time and long link time.)
I confirmed that this change makes AArch64TargetHandler.cpp.o
from 21MB to 8.5MB. It feels still too large, but I think it's
a good start.

This is a follow-up to r234728 and r234729. It looks like explicit
