SymbolBody and Symbol were separated classes due to a historical reason.
Symbol used to be a pointer to a SymbolBody, and the relationship
between Symbol and SymbolBody was n:1.
r2681780 changed that. Since that patch, SymbolBody and Symbol are
allocated next to each other to improve memory locality, and they have
1:1 relationship now. So, the separation of Symbol and SymbolBody no
longer makes sense.

DSO is short for dynamic shared object, so the function name was a
little confusing because it sounded like it didn't work when we were
a creating statically-linked executable or something.
What we mean by "DSO" here is the current output file that we are

The Android relocation packing format is a more compact
format for dynamic relocations in executables and DSOs
that is based on delta encoding and SLEBs. An overview
of the format can be found in the Android source code:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/bionic/+/refs/heads/master/tools/relocation_packer/src/delta_encoder.h
This patch implements relocation packing using that format.
This implementation uses a more intelligent algorithm for compressing
relative relocations than Android's own relocation packer. As a
result it can generally create smaller relocation sections than
that packer. If I link Chromium for Android targeting ARM32 I get a
.rel.dyn of size 174693 bytes, as compared to 371832 bytes with gold
and the Android packer.

If the OutputSection is small we put the thunks at the end of the executable

By assuming that mergeable input sections are smaller than 4 GiB,
lld's memory usage when linking clang with debug info drops from
2.788 GiB to 2.019 GiB (measured by valgrind, and that does not include
memory space for mmap'ed files). I think that's a reasonable assumption
given such a large RAM savings, so this patch.
According to valgrind, gold needs 3.54 GiB of RAM to do the same thing.

When parsing linker scripts, LLD previously started with a '.' value of 0,
regardless of the internal default image base for the target, and regardless of
switches such as --image-base. It seems reasonable to use a different image base
value when using linker scripts and --image-base is specified, since otherwise the
switch has no effect. This change does this, as well as removing unnecessary
initialisation of Dot where it is not used.
The default image base should not be used when processing linker
scripts, because this will change the behaviour for existing linker script users,
and potentially result in invalid output being produced, as a subsequent assignment
to Dot could move the location counter backwards. Instead, we maintain the existing
behaviour of starting from 0 if --image-base is not specified.

When reporting a symbol conflict, LLD parses the debug info to report
source location information. Sections have not been decompressed at this
point, so if an object file contains zlib compressed debug info, LLD
ends up passing this compressed debug info to the DWARF parser, which
causes debug info parsing failures and can trigger assertions in the
parser (as the test case demonstrates).
Decompress debug sections when constructing the LLDDwarfObj to avoid
this issue. This doesn't handle GNU-style compressed debug info sections

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.

When creating an ELF shared object, set the internal DT_FILTER field to the specified name. This tells the dynamic linker that the symbol table of the shared object which is being created should be used as a filter on the symbol table of the shared object name.
If you later link a program against this filter object, then, when you run the program, the dynamic linker will see the DT_FILTER field. The dynamic linker will resolve symbols according to the symbol table of the filter object as usual, but it will actually link to the definitions found in the shared object name. Thus the filter object can be used to select a subset of the symbols provided by the object name.

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.

We should only ever expect this function to return a regular
InputSection; I would not expect a function definition to be in a
MergeInputSection or EhInputSection. We were previously crashing
in writeTo if this function returned a section that was not an
InputSection because we do not set OutSec for such sections.
This can happen in practice if a function is defined in an empty
section which shares its offset-in-file with a MergeInputSection,
as in the provided test case.
A better fix for this bug would be to fix the
DWARFUnit::collectAddressRanges() interface to provide section
information (see D33183), but this at least fixes the crash.

This is PR32437.
DF_STATIC_TLS
If set in a shared object or executable, this flag instructs the
dynamic linker to reject attempts to load this file dynamically.
It indicates that the shared object or executable contains code
using a static thread-local storage scheme. Implementations need
not support any form of thread-local storage.
Patch checks if IE/LE relocations were used to check if code uses
static model. If so it sets the DF_STATIC_TLS flag.

Strip on OpenBSD does not correctly handle an empty .eh_frame section
and produces broken binaries in that case. Currently lld creates such
an empty .eh_frame section, despite the fact that the OpenBSD crtend.o
explicitly inserts a terminator. The Linux LSB "standard":
https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/LSB_5.0.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/ehframechpt.html#EHFRAME
explicitly says that
The .eh_frame section shall contain 1 or more Call Frame Information (CFI) records.
This diff includes a test that specifically tests the issue I'm seeing
on OpenBSD.

We generally want to use uint64_t instead of uintX_t if the 64-bit

llvm-svn: 300293
Executable sections should not be padded with zero by default. On some
architectures, 0x00 is the start of a valid instruction sequence, so can confuse
disassembly between InputSections (and indeed the start of the next InputSection
in some situations). Further, in the case of misjumps into padding, padding may
start to be executed silently.
On x86, the "0xcc" byte represents the int3 trap instruction. It is a single
byte long so can serve well as padding. This change switches x86 (and x86_64) to
use this value for padding in executable sections, if no linker script directive
overrides it. It also puts the behaviour into place making it easy to change the
behaviour of other targets when desired. I do not know the relevant instruction
sequences for trap instructions on other targets however, so somebody should add
this separately.
Because the old behaviour simply wrote padding in the whole section before
overwriting most of it, this change also modifies the padding algorithm to write
padding only where needed. This in turn has caused a small behaviour change with
regards to what values are written via Fill commands in linker scripts, bringing
it into line with ld.bfd. The fill value is now written starting from the end of
the previous block, which means that it always starts from the first byte of the
fill, whereas the old behaviour meant that the padding sometimes started mid-way
through the fill value. See the test changes for more details.

Looks like .gdb.index and its support classes do things that they don't
have to or shouldn't do do. This patch addresses one of these issues.
GdbHashTab class is a hash table class. Just like other in-memory hash
tables, that incrementally updates its internal data and resizes buckets
as new elements are added so that key lookup is always fast.
But that is completely not necessary.
Unlike debuggers, we only produce hash tables for .gdb.index and
never read them. So incrementally updating a hash table in memory is
just a waste of resource and complicates the code. What we should
do is to accumulate symbols and then create the final hash table
at once.

Patch by Mark Kettenis.
Currenlty ld.lld does not add a terminator (a CIE with its length field
set to zero) to the .eh_frame sections it generates. While the relevant
standards (the AMD64 SysV ABI and the Linux LSB) are not explicit about
this, such a terminator is expected by some unwinder implementations and
seems to be always emitted by ld.bfd. In addition to that, the Linux LSB
https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/LSB_5.0.0/LSB-Core-generic/LSB-Core-generic/ehframechpt.html#EHFRAME
explicitly says that
The .eh_frame section shall contain 1 or more Call Frame Information
(CFI) records.
Currently, if the .eh_frame sections of the input files only contain
terminators, ld.lld emits a zero=sized .eh_frame section
which clearly doesn't meet that requirement.
The diff makes sure a terminator gets added to each .eh_frame section
and adjusts all the relevant tests to account for that. An additional
test isn't needed as these adjustments mean that the existence of the
terminator is tested for by several tests already.

Unfortunately some consumers of our .o files produced with -r expect
only one section symbol per section. That is true of at least of go's
own linker.
Combining them is a somewhat convoluted process. We have to create a
symbol for every section since we don't know which ones will be
needed. The relocation sections also have to be written first to
handle the Elf_Rel addend.
I did consider a completely different approach:
We could remove the -r special case of relocation sections when
reading. We would instead have a copyRelocs function that is used
instead of scanRelocs. It would create a DynamicReloc for each
relocation and a RelocationSection for each input relocation section.
A complication of such change is that DynamicReloc would have to take
a section index and a input section instead of a symbol since with
-emit-relocs some DynamicReloc would hold relocations referring to the
dynamic symbol table and other to the static symbol table.
That would be a pretty big change, and if we do it it is probably
better to do it as a refactoring.

When we need a copy relocation we create a synthetic SHT_NOBITS
section that contains the right amount of ZI and assign it to either

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

Thunks are now implemented by redirecting the relocation to the

The i386 glibc ld.so expects the .got.slot entry that is relocated by a

not the address of the PLT entry + 6 (thus entering the lazy resolver).
This is also the case for ARM and I suspect it is because these use REL
relocations and can't use the addend field to store the address of the
ifunc resolver. If the lazy resolver is used we get an error message
stating that only R_386_JUMP_SLOT is supported.
As ARM and i386 share the same code, I've removed the ARM specific test

of MipsGotSection because it modifies PageIndexMap field. That leads
to the unpredictable results if getPageEntryOffset called from multiple threads.
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.

If output section which referenced by R_MIPS_GOT_PAGE or R_MIPS_GOT16
relocations is small (less that 0x10000 bytes) and occupies two adjacent
0xffff-bytes pages, current formula gives incorrect number of required "page"
GOT entries. The problem is that in time of calculation we do not know
the section address and so we cannot calculate number of 0xffff-bytes
pages exactly.
This patch fix the formula. Now it gives a correct number of pages in
the worst case when "small" section intersects 0xffff-bytes page
boundary. From the other side, sometimes it adds one more redundant GOT
entry for each output section. But usually number of output sections
referenced by GOT relocations is small.

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
written for that SymbolBody.
With ARM there will be more complicated values, and it seems better to
just use the relocation code to fill the got entries. This makes it
clear that each entry is filled by the dynamic linker or by the static
linker.

This is important for cases like:
.sdata : {
*(.got.plt .got)
...
}
That was not supported before as there was no way to get access to
synthetic sections from script.

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.
The patch fixes the problem and completes fixing the bug #30311.

We have different functions to stringize objects to construct
error messages. For InputFile, we have getFilename, and for
InputSection, we have getName. You had to memorize them.
I think this is the case where the function overloading comes in handy.
This patch defines toString() functions that are overloaded for all these
types, so that you just call it in error().

Some synthetic sections are not derived calsses of SyntehticSection.
They are derived directly from InputSection. For consistencly, we should
use SyntheticSection.

MIPS GOT handling is very different from other targets so it is better
to keep the code in the separatre section class MipsGotSection. This
patch introduces the new section and moves all MIPS specific code from
GotSection to the new class. I did not rename fields and methods in the
MipsGotSection class to reduce the diff and plan to do that by the
separate commit.

This patch introduces the following changes:
- DynamicSection now inherits InputSection<ELFT> and was moved
to SyntheticSections.h/.cpp.
- Link and Entsize fields of DynamicSection are propagated to
its output section
- In<ELFT>::SyntheticSections was removed.
- Finalization of synthetic sections was removed from
OutputSection<ELFT>::finalize. Now finalizeSyntheticSections is
used instead.

Summary:
This patch adds a ".comment" section to an output. The comment
section contains the linker's version string. You can now
find out whether a binary is created by LLD or not using objdump
command like this.
$ objdump -s -j .comment foo
foo: file format elf64-x86-64
Contents of section .comment:
0000 00474343 3a202855 62756e74 7520342e .GCC: (Ubuntu 4.

00f0 2900 ).
Compilers emits .comment section as well, so the output contains
both compiler and linker information.
Alternative considered:
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
info.

Previously, we have both input and output section for .MIPS.abiflags.
Now we have only one class for .MIPS.abiflags, which is MipsAbiFlagsSection.
This class is a synthetic input section.
.MIPS.abiflags sections are handled as regular sections until
the control reaches Writer. Writer then aggregates all sections
whose type is SHT_MIPS_ABIFLAGS to create a single synthesized
input section. The synthesized section is then processed normally
as if it came from an input file.

Previously, we have both input and output sections for .reginfo and
.MIPS.options. Now for each such sections we have one synthetic input
sections: MipsReginfoSection and MipsOptionsSection respectively.
Both sections are handled as regular sections until the control reaches
Writer. Writer then aggregates all sections whose type is SHT_MIPS_REGINFO
or SHT_MIPS_OPTIONS to create a single synthesized input section. In that
moment Writer also save GP0 value to the MipsGp0 field of the corresponding
ObjectFile. This value required for R_MIPS_GPREL16 and R_MIPS_GPREL32
relocations calculation.

This is similar to what was done for InputSection.
With this the various fields are stored in host order and only
converted to target order when writing.

Patch switches computing of --build-id hash to tree.
This is the way when input data is splitted by chunks,
hash is computed for each one in threaded/non-threaded way.
At the end hash is conputed for result tree.
With or without -threads the result hash is the same.
