EhSectionPiece used to have a pointer to a section, but that pointer was
mostly redundant because we almost always know what the section is without
using that pointer. This patch removes the pointer from the struct.
This patch also use uint32_t/int32_t instead of size_t to represent
offsets that are hardly be larger than 4 GiB. At the moment, I think it is
OK even if we cannot handle .eh_frame sections larger than 4 GiB.

to separate commons based on file name patterns. The following linker script
construct does not work because commons are allocated before section placement

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.

I found this when builded llc binary using gcc 5.4.1 + LLD.
gcc produces duplicate entries in .debug_gnu_pubtypes section, ex:
UnifyFunctionExitNodes.cpp.o has:
0x0000ac07 EXTERNAL TYPE "std::success_type<void*>"
0x0000ac07 EXTERNAL TYPE "std::success_type<void*>"
clang produces single entry here:
0x0000d291 EXTERNAL TYPE "std::__success_type<void *>"
If we link output from gcc with LLD, that would produce excessive duplicate
entries in .gdb_index constant pool area. That does not seem affect gdb work,
but makes .gdb_index larger than it can be.
I also checked that gold filters out such duplicates too. Patch fixes it.

GetSection is a template because write calls relocate.
relocate has two parts. The non alloc code really has to be a
template, as it is looking a raw input file data.
The alloc part is only a template because of getSize.
This patch folds the value of getSize early, detemplates
getRelocTargetVA and splits relocate into a templated non alloc case
and a regular function for the alloc case. This has the nice advantage
of making sure we collect all the information we need for relocations
before getting to InputSection::relocateNonAlloc.
Since we know got is alloc, it can just call the function directly and
avoid the template.

When we need a copy relocation we create a synthetic SHT_NOBITS

dynamic relocation is stored as an offset from the OutputSection. This

Thunks are now implemented by redirecting the relocation to the

- Thunks are no longer stored in InputSections and Symbols no longer
need to hold a pointer to a Thunk
- The synthetic Thunk sections need to be merged into OutputSections
This implementation is almost a direct conversion of the existing

- Mips LA25 Thunks are placed before the InputSection that defines

- All ARM Thunks are placed at the end of the OutputSection of the

The MipsGotSection::getPageEntryOffset calculates index of GOT entry

The patch makes getPageEntryOffset constant. To do so it calculates GOT
entry index but does not update PageIndexMap field. Later in the
MipsGotSection::writeTo method linker calculates "page" addresses and
writes them to the output.

Right now we just remember a SymbolBody for each got entry and
duplicate a bit of logic to decide what value, if any, should be

With ARM there will be more complicated values, and it seems better to

clear that each entry is filled by the dynamic linker or by the static
linker.

The .ARM.exidx table has an entry for each function with the first entry
giving the start address of the function, the table is sorted in ascending
order of function address. Given a PC value, the unwinder will search the
table for the entry that contains the PC value.
If the table entry happens to be the last, the range of the addresses that
the final unwinding table describes will extend to the end of the address
space. To prevent an incorrect address outside the address range of the
program matching the last entry we follow ld.bfd's example and add a
sentinel EXIDX_CANTUNWIND entry at the end of the table. This gives the
final real table entry an upper bound.
In addition the llvm libunwind unwinder currently depends on the presence
of a sentinel entry (PR31091).

Offset between beginning of a .got section and _gp symbols used in MIPS
GOT relocations calculations. Usually the expression looks like
VA + Offset - GP, where VA is the .got section address, Offset - offset
of the GOT entry, GP - offset between .got and _gp. Also there two "magic"
symbols _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp which hold the offset mentioned above.
These symbols might be referenced by MIPS relocations.
Now the linker always defines _gp symbol and uses hardcoded value for
its initialization. So offset between .got and _gp is 0x7ff0. The _gp_disp
and __gnu_local_gp defined if required and initialized by 0x7ff0.
In fact that is not correct because _gp symbol might be defined by a linker
script and holds arbitrary value. In that case we need to use this value
in relocation calculation and initialize _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp
properly.

Compilers emits .comment section as well, so the output contains

I first tried to add a SHT_NOTE section because GNU gold does that.
A NOTE section starts with a header which contains content type.
It turned out that ld.gold sets type NT_GNU_GOLD_VERSION to their
NOTE section. So the NOTE type is only for GNU gold (surprise!)
Next, I tried to create ".linker-version" section. However, it seems
that reusing the existing ".comment" section is better because 1)
other tools already know about .comment section and is able to strip
it and 2) the result contans not only linker info but also compiler
