Future symbol insertions can potentially change the type of these
symbols - keep pointers to the base class to reflect this, and
use dynamic casts to inspect them before using as the subclass
type.
This fixes crashes that were possible before, by touching these
symbols that now are populated as e.g. a DefinedRegular, via
the old pointers with DefinedImportThunk type.

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.

I believe the reason why we used warn() instead of error() to report
undefined symbols is because the older implementation of error() exitted
immediately. Here, we want to find as many undefined symbols as we can,
so I chose to use warn() instead of error().
Now error() does not exit immediately, so it doesn't make sense to keep
them as warnings.

Apply the simplification suggestions that Peter Collingbourne made

not needed directly, so avoid the assignment. NFC
llvm-svn: 312391
If a symbol is locally defined and is DLL imported in another
translation unit, and the object with the locally defined version is
loaded prior to the imported version, then the linker will fail to
resolve the definition of the thunk and return the locally defined
symbol. This will then be attempted to be cast to an import thunk,
which will clearly fail.
Only return the thunk if the symbol is inserted or a thunk is created.
Otherwise, report a duplication error.
llvm-svn: 312386
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.

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.

Previously, InputFile::parse() was run in batch. We construct a list
of all input files and call parse() on each file using parallel_for_each.
That means we cannot start parsing files until we get a complete list
of input files, although InputFile::parse() is safe to call from anywhere.
This patch makes it asynchronous. As soon as we add a file to the symbol
table, we now start parsing the file using std::async().
This change shortens self-hosting time (650 ms) by 28 ms. It's about 4%
improvement.

InputFile::parse() can be called in parallel with other calls of
the same function. By doing that, time to self-link improves from
741 ms to 654 ms or 12% faster.
This is probably the last low hanging fruit in terms of parallelism.
Input file parsing and symbol table insertion takes 450 ms in total.
If we want to optimize further, we probably have to parallelize
symbol table insertion using concurrent hashmap or something.
That's doable, but that's not easy, especially if you want to keep
the exact same semantics and linking order. I'm not going to do that
at least soon.
Anyway, compared to r248019 (the change before the first attempt for
parallelism), we achieved 36% performance improvement from 1022 ms
to 654 ms. MSVC linker takes 3.3 seconds to link the same program.
MSVC's ICF feature is very slow for some reason, but even if we
disable the feature, it still takes about 1.2 seconds.
Our number is probably good enough.

Basically the concept of "liveness" is for sections (or chunks in LLD

or otherwise it indicates a link failure.

They are confusing methods. What they actually did is to act as a proxy
to backing section chunks. We can simplify eliminate these methods

* It is a more robust API. The errors are handled early and we don't get a

In many places we assumed that is64() means AMD64 and i386 otherwise.

An object file compatible with Safe SEH contains a .sxdata section.
The section contains a list of symbol table indices, each of which
is an exception handler function. A safe SEH-enabled executable
contains a list of exception handler RVAs. So, what the linker has
to do to support Safe SEH is basically to read the .sxdata section,
interpret the contents as a list of symbol indices, unique-fy and
sort their RVAs, and then emit that list to .rdata. This patch
implements that feature.

__ImageBase is a special symbol whose value is the image base address.
Previously, we handled __ImageBase symbol as an absolute symbol.
Absolute symbols point to specific locations in memory and the locations
never change even if an image is base-relocated. That means that we
don't have base relocation entries for absolute symbols.
This is not a case for __ImageBase. If an image is base-relocated, its
base address changes, and __ImageBase needs to be shifted as well.
So we have to have base relocations for __ImageBase. That means that
__ImageBase is not really an absolute symbol but a different kind of
symbol.
In this patch, I introduced a new type of symbol -- DefinedRelative.
DefinedRelative is similar to DefinedAbsolute, but it has not a VA but RVA
and is a subject of base relocation. Currently only __ImageBase is of
the new symbol type.

We were previously hitting assertion failures in the writer in cases where
a regular object file defined a weak external symbol that was defined by
a bitcode file. Because /export and /entry name mangling were implemented
using weak externals, the same problem affected mangled symbol names in
bitcode files.
The underlying cause of the problem was that weak external symbols were
being resolved before doing LTO, so the symbol table may have contained stale
references to bitcode symbols. The fix here is to defer weak external symbol
resolution until after LTO.
Also implement support for weak external symbols in bitcode files
by modelling them as replaceable DefinedBitcode symbols.

Previously, __ImageBase symbol got a different value than the one
specified by /base:<number> because the symbol was created in the

and thus caused mysterious crashes of some executables linked by LLD.

On Windows, we have four different main functions, {w,}{main,WinMain}.
The linker has to choose a corresponding entry point function among
{w,}{main,WinMain}CRTStartup. These entry point functions are defined
in the standard library. The linker resolves one of them by looking at
which main function is defined and adding a corresponding undefined
symbol to the symbol table.
Object files containing entry point functions conflicts each other.
For example, we cannot resolve both mainCRTStartup and WinMainCRTStartup
because other symbols defined in the files conflict.
Previously, we inferred CRT function name at the very end of name
resolution. I found that that is sometimes too late. If the linker
already linked one of these four archive member objects, it's too late
to change the decision.
The right thing to do here is to infer entry point name after adding
all symbols from command line files and before adding any other files
(which are specified by directive sections). This patch does that.
