We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM

include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of

This allows using #pragma comment(lib, "foo") in MinGW built code,
if built with -fms-extensions. (This works for system libraries and
static libraries only, as it doesn't try to look for .dll.a. As
ld.bfd doesn't support embedded defaultlib directives, this isn't
in widespread use among mingw users.)
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D53017
llvm-svn: 344124
ld.bfd doesn't do any inference of subsystem; unless the windows
subsystem is specified, the console subsystem is used.
For the console subsystem, the entry point is called mainCRTStartup,
regardless of whether the the user code entry point is main or wmain.
The same goes for the windows subsystem, where the entry point always
is WinMainCRTStartup, for both WinMain and wWinMain in user code.
One detail that we don't emulate, is that if the inferred entry point
is undefined, ld.bfd silently just sets the entry point to the start
of the image. And if an explicit entry point is set, but it is
undefined, the link still succeeds but the linker warns about the
entry point not being found.

Three related changes:
1. link.exe uses the presence of main and wmain to decide if it should call
mainCRTStartup or wmainCRTStartup, even if /nodefaultlib is passed. For
compatibility, remove FindMain logic.
2. Default to the non-wide entrypoint if main is not found. This has two effects:
2a. In normal links, lld-link now prints
lld-link: error: undefined symbol: _main
>>> referenced by f:\dd\vctools\crt\vcstartup\src\startup\exe_common.inl:78
>>> libcmt.lib(exe_main.obj):("int __cdecl invoke_main(void)" (?invoke_main@@YAHXZ))
>>> referenced by f:\dd\vctools\crt\vcstartup\src\startup\exe_common.inl:283
>>> libcmt.lib(exe_main.obj):("int __cdecl __scrt_common_main_seh(void)" (?__scrt_common_main_seh@@YAHXZ))
instead of
lld-link: error: entry point must be defined
This is arguably a better error message, since it now mentions that _main is
missing. (This matches link.exe's diagnostic in this case.)
2b. With /nodefautlib, we now default to mainCRTStartup if no main() is
present, again matching link.exe. This makes r337407 obsolete.
This means if you have a cc file containing both mainCRTStartup and
wmainCRTStartup and you pass /nodefaultlib /subsystem:console, lld-link will
now call mainCRTStartup, matching link.exe
3. Print a warning if both main and wmain are present, similar to link.exe's
LNK4067.

MinGW uses these kind of list terminator symbols for traversing
the constructor/destructor lists. These list terminators are
actual pointers entries in the lists, with the values 0 and
(uintptr_t)-1 (instead of just symbols pointing to the start/end
of the list).
(This mechanism exists in both the mingw-w64 crt startup code and
in libgcc; normally the mingw-w64 one is used, but a DLL build of
libgcc uses the libgcc one. Therefore it's not trivial to change
the mechanism without lots of cross-project synchronization and
potentially invalidating some combinations of old/new versions
of them.)
When mingw-w64 has been used with lld so far, the CRT startup object
files have so far provided these symbols, ending up with different,
incompatible builds of the CRT startup object files depending on
whether binutils or lld are going to be used.
In order to avoid the need of different configuration of the CRT startup
object files depending on what linker to be used, provide these symbols
in lld instead. (Mingw-w64 checks at build time whether the linker
provides these symbols or not.) This unifies this particular detail
between the two linkers.
This does disallow the use of the very latest lld with older versions
of mingw-w64 (the configure check for the list was added recently;
earlier it simply checked whether the CRT was built with gcc or clang),
and requires rebuilding the mingw-w64 CRT. But the number of users of
lld+mingw still is low enough that such a change should be tolerable,
and unifies this aspect of the toolchains, easing interoperability
between the toolchains for the future.
The actual test for this feature is added in ctors_dtors_priority.s,
but a number of other tests that checked absolute output addresses
are updated.

When building a shared libc++.dll, it pulls in libc++abi.a statically
with the --wholearchive flag. If such a build is done with
--export-all-symbols, it's reasonable to assume that everything
from that library also should be exported with the same rules as normal
local object files, even though we normally avoid autoexporting things
from libc++abi.a in other cases when linking a DLL (user code).

There's no point in keeping them as separate sections.
This differs from GNU ld, which places .ctors and .dtors content in
.text (implemented by a built-in linker script). But since the content
only is pointers, there's no need to have it executable.
GNU ld also leaves .CRT separate as its own standalone section.
MSVC merges .CRT into .rdata similarly, with a directive embedded in
an object file in msvcrt.lib or libcmt.lib.

Normally, in order to reference exported data symbols from a different
DLL, the declarations need to have the dllimport attribute, in order to
use the __imp_<var> symbol (which contains an address to the actual
variable) instead of the variable itself directly. This isn't an issue
in the same way for functions, since any reference to the function without
the dllimport attribute will end up as a reference to a thunk which loads
the actual target function from the import address table (IAT).
GNU ld, in MinGW environments, supports automatically importing data
symbols from DLLs, even if the references didn't have the appropriate
dllimport attribute. Since the PE/COFF format doesn't support the kind
of relocations that this would require, the MinGW's CRT startup code
has an custom framework of their own for manually fixing the missing
relocations once module is loaded and the target addresses in the IAT
are known.
For this to work, the linker (originall in GNU ld) creates a list of
remaining references needing fixup, which the runtime processes on
startup before handing over control to user code.
While this feature is rather controversial, it's one of the main features
allowing unix style libraries to be used on windows without any extra
porting effort.
Some sort of automatic fixing of data imports is also necessary for the
itanium C++ ABI on windows (as clang implements it right now) for importing
vtable pointers in certain cases, see D43184 for some discussion on that.
The runtime pseudo relocation handler supports 8/16/32/64 bit addresses,
either PC relative references (like IMAGE_REL_*_REL32*) or absolute
references (IMAGE_REL_AMD64_ADDR32, IMAGE_REL_AMD64_ADDR32,
IMAGE_REL_I386_DIR32). On linking, the relocation is handled as a
relocation against the corresponding IAT slot. For the absolute references,
a normal base relocation is created, to update the embedded address
in case the image is loaded at a different address.
The list of runtime pseudo relocations contains the RVA of the
imported symbol (the IAT slot), the RVA of the location the relocation
should be applied to, and a size of the memory location. When the
relocations are fixed at runtime, the difference between the actual
IAT slot value and the IAT slot address is added to the reference,
doing the right thing for both absolute and relative references.
With this patch alone, things work fine for i386 binaries, and mostly
for x86_64 binaries, with feature parity with GNU ld. Despite this,
there are a few gotchas:
- References to data from within code works fine on both x86 architectures,
since their relocations consist of plain 32 or 64 bit absolute/relative
references. On ARM and AArch64, references to data doesn't consist of
a plain 32 or 64 bit embedded address or offset in the code. On ARMNT,
it's usually a MOVW+MOVT instruction pair represented by a
IMAGE_REL_ARM_MOV32T relocation, each instruction containing 16 bit of
the target address), on AArch64, it's usually an ADRP+ADD/LDR/STR
instruction pair with an even more complex encoding, storing a PC
relative address (with a range of +/- 4 GB). This could theoretically
be remedied by extending the runtime pseudo relocation handler with new
relocation types, to support these instruction encodings. This isn't an
issue for GCC/GNU ld since they don't support windows on ARMNT/AArch64.
- For x86_64, if references in code are encoded as 32 bit PC relative
offsets, the runtime relocation will fail if the target turns out to be
out of range for a 32 bit offset.
- Fixing up the relocations at runtime requires making sections writable
if necessary, with the VirtualProtect function. In Windows Store/UWP apps,
this function is forbidden.
These limitations are addressed by a few later patches in lld and
llvm.

This is a minor follow-up to https://reviews.llvm.org/D49189. On Windows, lld
used to print "lld-link.exe: error: ...". Now it just prints "lld-link: error:
...". This matches what link.exe does (it prints "LINK : ...") and makes lld's
output less dependent on the host system.

If /subsystem:windows is passed, link.exe only looks for WinMain and wWinMain,
and if /subsystem:console is passed it only looks for main and wmain. lld-link
used to look for all 4 in both cases. This patch makes lld-link match
link.exe's behavior.
This requires that the subsystem is known by the time findDefaultEntry() gets
called. findDefaultEntry() is called before the main link loop, so that the
loop can mark the entry point as undefined. That means inferSubsystem() has to
be called above the main loop as well. This in turn means /subsystem: from
.drectve sections only has an effect on entry point inference for obj files
passed to lld-link directly (and not in obj files found later in .lib files).
link.exe seems to ignore /subsystem: for obj files from lib files completely
(while in lld it's ignored only for entry point detection but it still
overrides /subsystem: flags passed on the command line for the value that gets
written in the output file).
Also, if the subsytem isn't needed (e.g. when only writing a /def: lib file and
not writing a coff file), link.exe doesn't complain if the subsystem isn't
known, so both subsystem and entry point handling should be below the early
return lld has for that case.

LinkerDriver::inferSubsystem() used to do Symtab->findUnderscore("WinMain"),
but WinMain is stdcall in 32-bit and is hence is called _WinMain@16. Instead,
Symtab->findMangle(mangle("WinMain")) needs to be called.
But since LinkerDriver::inferSubsystem() and LinkerDriver::findDefaultEntry()
both need to call this, introduce a common helper function for this and call it
from both places. (Also call it for "main" for consistency, even though
findUnderscore() is enough for main since that's __cdecl on 32-bit).
This also exposed a bug for /nodefaultlib entrypoint inference: The code here
called findMangle(Sym) instead of findMangle(mangle(Sym)), again doing the
wrong thing on 32-bit. Fix that too.

lld currently prepends the absolute path to itself to every diagnostic it

To address this, we put the old behavior of writing the hash

also match MSVC default behavior, which is to write an actual

The operator == used for exporting a function with a different
name in the DLL compared to the name in the import library
(which is useful for adding linker level aliases for function
in the import library) is a feature distinct and different from
the operator = used for exporting a function with a different
name (both in import library and DLL) than in the implementation
producing the DLL.
When creating an import library using dlltool, from a def file that
contains forwards (Func = OtherDll.Func), this shouldn't affect the
produced import library, which should still behave just as if it
was a normal exported function.
This clears a lot of confusion and subtle misunderstandings, and
avoids a parameter that was used to avoid creating weak aliases
when invoked from lld. (This parameter was added previously due to
the existing conflation of the two features.)

Natvis is a debug language supported by Visual Studio for

undocumented link.exe flag which will take a .natvis file

This is implemented by adding a new "named stream" to the

and simply copying the contents of the xml into this file.
Additionally, we need to emit a single stream named
/src/headerblock which contains a hash table of embedded

GNU ld has got a number of different flags for adjusting how to
behave around stdcall functions. The --kill-at flag strips the
trailing sdcall suffix from exported functions (which otherwise
is included by default in MinGW setups).
This also strips it from the corresponding import library though.
That makes it hard to link to such an import library from code
that calls the functions - but this matches what GNU ld does with
this flag. Therefore, this flag is probably not sensibly used
together with import libraries, but probably mostly when creating

Summary:
This detects when an import library is about to be overwritten with a
newly built one with the same contents, and keeps the old library
instead. The use case for this is to avoid needlessly rebuilding
targets that depend on the import library in build systems that rely
on timestamps to determine whether a target requires rebuilding.

Summary:
lld-link accepts link.exe's /ignore option, but used to ignore
it. This can lead to semantic differences when warnings are treated as
fatal errors. One such case is when we resolve an __imp_ symbol to a
local definition. We emit a warning in that case, which /wx turns into
a fatal. This change makes lld-link accept /ignore:4217 to suppress
that warning, so that code that links with link.exe /wx /ignore:4217
links with lld-link, too.

/debug and /debug:dwarf are orthogonal. An object file can contain both

LLD's handling of boolean flags is suboptimal:
* All boolean flags have a corresponding `:no` flag to turn the flag
off, and the linker should scan for both the non-suffixed and suffixed
flags (and the last one should win), but right now it only scans for
either the suffixed or non-suffixed flag (depending on the default
flag value).
* The `B` multiclass only allows specifying help text for the suffixed
(`:no`) flag, but for some flags (e.g. `/appcontainer`) the help text
should be associated with the non-suffixed flag instead.
Extend the `B` multiclass to have help text for both non-suffixed and
suffixed flag variants, and alter the existing help text accordingly in
some cases. Scan for both the non-suffixed and suffixed variants in the
driver and set config values accordingly.
This should mostly have no behavior change, apart from the added help
text and the modified argument scanning. Some flags are handled slightly
differently now, however; for example, LLD would previously always treat
64-bit images as large address aware, whereas `/largeaddressaware:no` is
now respected for 64-bit images (which is also how link.exe behaves).

- stdcall functions when declared decorated in def files for mingw
This still exports the stdcall functions with the wrong name
in the normal msvc/link.exe mode, if declared with decoration in

Summary:
ArgParser created an instance of COFFOptTable on stack to use it to

Since SVN r303491 and r304573, LLD used the COFFImportLibrary
functions from LLVM. These only had two names, Name and ExtName,
which wasn't enough to convey all the details of stdcall functions.
Stdcall functions got the wrong symbol name in the import library
itself in r303491, which is why it was reverted in r304561. When
re-landed and fixed in r304573 (after adding a test in r304572),
the symbol name itself in the import library ended up right, but the
name type of the import library entry was wrong.
This had the effect that linking to the import library succeeded
(contrary to in r303491, where linking to such an import library
failed), but at runtime, the symbol wouldn't be found in the DLL
(since the caller linked to the stdcall decorated name).

Summary:
The main change is that we can have SECREL and SECTION relocations
against ___safe_se_handler_table, which is important for handling the
debug info in the MSVCRT.
Previously we were using DefinedRelative for __safe_se_handler_table and
__ImageBase, and after we implement CFGuard, we plan to extend it to
handle __guard_fids_table, __guard_longjmp_table, and more. However,
DefinedRelative is really only suitable for implementing __ImageBase,
because it lacks a Chunk, which you need in order to figure out the
output section index and output section offset when resolving SECREl and
SECTION relocations.
This change renames DefinedRelative to DefinedSynthetic and gives it a
Chunk. One wart is that __ImageBase doesn't have a chunk. It points to
the PE header, effectively. We could split DefinedRelative and
DefinedSynthetic if we think that's cleaner and creates fewer special
cases.
I also added safeseh.s, which checks that we don't emit a safe seh table
entries pointing to garbage collected handlers and that we don't emit a
table at all when there are no handlers.

The MSVC linker doesn't like archive files containing non-native object
files.
When we are doing an LTO build, we may create archive files containing
both LLVM bitcode files and native object files. For example, if a
project contains assembly files and C++ files, we create native object
files for the assembly files and LLVM bitcode files for the C++ files.
With the /msvclto option, LLD passes archive files to the MSVC linker.
Previously, we didn't pass archive files if they contain at least one
bitcode files. That wasn't correct because the native object files that

have been resolved already, so link.exe shoulnd't need any of the files
in archives.
It turns out that even though link.exe doesn't need to do that, it
seems to try to read each file in all archives. And if there's a non-

they may not be evaluated until the future is waited on, in run() -
which is after the early return/exit on ErrorCount. (this causes the
test to fail (because in the "/ERRORCOUNT:XYZ" test, no other errors
are printed), at least for me, on linux)
This reverts commit r295507.
llvm-svn: 295590
Summary: This adds support for reporting multiple errors in a single invocation of lld-link. The limit defaults to 20 and can be changed with the /ERRORLIMIT command line parameter, or set to unlimited by passing a value of 0.

This patch defines a new command line option, /MSVCLTO, to LLD.
If that option is given, LLD invokes link.exe to link LTO-generated
object files. This is hacky but useful because link.exe can create
PDB files.

Summary: The COFF linker previously implemented link-time optimization using an API which has now been marked as legacy. This change refactors the COFF linker to use the new LTO API, which is also used by the ELF linker.

This is how we use TarWriter in LLD. Now LLD does not append
a file extension, so you need to pass `--reproduce foo.tar`
instead of `--reproduce foo`.

I thought for a while about how to remove it, but it looks like we
can just copy the file for now. Of course I'm not happy about that,
but it's just less than 50 lines of code, and we already have
duplicate code in Error.h and some other places. I want to solve
them all at once later.

File system operations were still dominating the profile on Windows. In this
case we were spending a significant amount of our time repeatedly searching
for libraries as a result of processing linker directives. Address this
by caching whether we have already found a library with a given name. For
chrome_child.dll:
Before: 10.53s
After: 6.88s

Profiling revealed that the majority of lld's execution time on Windows was
spent opening and mapping input files. We can reduce this cost significantly
by performing these operations asynchronously.
This change introduces a queue for all operations on input file data. When
we discover that we need to load a file (for example, when we find a lazy
archive for an undefined symbol, or when we read a linker directive to
load a file from disk), the file operation is launched using a future and
the symbol resolution operation is enqueued. This implies another change
to symbol resolution semantics, but it seems to be harmless ("ninja All"
in Chromium still succeeds).
To measure the perf impact of this change I linked Chromium's chrome_child.dll
with both thin and fat archives.
Thin archives:
Before (median of 5 runs): 19.50s
After: 10.93s
Fat archives:
Before: 12.00s
After: 9.90s
On Linux I found that doing this asynchronously had a negative effect on
performance, probably because the cost of mapping a file is small enough that
it becomes outweighed by the cost of managing the futures. So on non-Windows
platforms I use the deferred execution strategy.

This patch replaces the symbol table's object and archive queues, as well as
the convergent loop in the linker driver, with a design more similar to the
ELF linker where symbol resolution directly causes input files to be added to
the link, including input files arising from linker directives. Effectively
this removes the last vestiges of the old parallel input file loader.

This ports the ELF linker's symbol table design, introduced in r268178,
to the COFF linker.

The former option bases the filename on the output name, e.g. if the
link output is a.exe, the map will be written to a.map. This matches the
behaviour of link.exe's /MAP option and is useful for creating a map
file of each executable when building a large project.
