.zdebug is unlikely used any longer: gcc -gz switched from legacy
.zdebug to SHF_COMPRESSED with binutils 2.26 (2016), which has been
several years. clang 14 dropped -gz=zlib-gnu support. According to
Debian Code Search (`gz=zlib-gnu`), no project uses -gz=zlib-gnu.
Remove .zdebug support to (a) simplify code and (b) allow removal of llvm-mc's
--compress-debug-sections=zlib-gnu.
In case the old object file `a.o` uses .zdebug, run `objcopy --decompress-debug-sections a.o`

LTO code may end up mixing bitcode files from various sources varying in
their use of opaque pointer types. The current strategy to decide
between opaque / typed pointers upon the first bitcode file loaded does
not work here, since we could be loading a non-opaque bitcode file first
and would then be unable to load any files with opaque pointer types
later.
So for LTO this:
- Adds an `lto::Config::OpaquePointer` option and enforces an upfront
decision between the two modes.
- Adds `-opaque-pointers`/`-no-opaque-pointers` options to the gold
plugin; disabled by default.
- `--opaque-pointers`/`--no-opaque-pointers` options with
`-plugin-opt=-opaque-pointers`/`-plugin-opt=-no-opaque-pointers`
aliases to lld; disabled by default.
- Adds an `-lto-opaque-pointers` option to the `llvm-lto2` tool.
- Changes the clang driver to pass `-plugin-opt=-opaque-pointers` to
the linker in LTO modes when clang was configured with opaque
pointers enabled by default.

This reduces the time emitStabs() takes by about 275ms, or 3% of overall
linking time for the project I'm on. Although the parent function is run in
parallel, it's one of the slowest tasks in that concurrent batch (I have
another optimization for another slow task as well).

Symbols from LTO objects don't contain Wasm signatures, but we need a
signature when we create undefined/stub functions for missing weakly
undefined symbols.
Luckily, after LTO, we know that symbols that are not referenced by a
regular object file must not be needed in the final output so there
is no need to generate undefined/stub function for them.

This matches the behaviour of the ELF backend (in fact this change

I'm really not sure how this was overlooked when we first ported lld

for some reason they never make it into the Wasm version.

It turns out we were already allocating static address space for TLS
data along with the non-TLS static data, but this space was going
unused/ignored.
With this change, we include the TLS segment in `__wasm_init_memory`
(which does the work of loading the passive segments into memory when a
module is first loaded). We also set the `__tls_base` global to point
to the start of this segment.
This means that the runtime can use this static copy of the TLS data for
the first/primary thread if it chooses, rather than doing a runtime
allocation prior to calling `__wasm_init_tls`.
Practically speaking, this will allow emscripten to avoid dynamic
allocation of TLS region on the main thread.

Details:
The test was incorrectly expecting the error messages for the export symbols to have a particular order.
It shouldn't because the export symbol list is processed concurrently.
GNU ld does not allow `.foo : { (*foo) }`, but we may recognize it as three
input section descriptions: file "(" with any section name, file "*foo" with
any section name, file ")" with any section name. Disallow the error-prone usage.

We picked common-page-size to match GNU ld. Recently, the resolution to GNU ld
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28824 (milestone: 2.39) switched
to max-page-size so that the last page can be protected by RELRO in case the
system page size is larger than common-page-size.
Thanks to our two RW PT_LOAD scheme (D58892), switching to max-page-size does
not change file size (while GNU ld's scheme may increase file size).

This flag is added by clang::driver::tools::addLTOOptions() and was causing
errors for me when building the llvm-test-suite repository with LTO and
-DTEST_SUITE_COLLECT_STATS=ON. This replaces the --stats-file= option
added in 1c04b52b25 since the flag is only
used for LTO and should therefore be in the -plugin-opt= namespace.
Additionally, this commit fixes the `REQUIRES: asserts` that was added in
948d05324a150a5a24e93bad07c9090d5b8bd129: the feature was never defined in

Placing a non-SHT_NOBITS input section in an output section specified with
(NOLOAD) is fishy but used by some projects. D118840 changed the output type to
SHT_PROGBITS, but using the specified type seems to make more sense and improve
GNU ld compatibility: `(NOLOAD)` seems to change the output section type
regardless of input.
I think we should keep the current type mismatch warning as it does indicate an
error-prone usage.

With -platform_version flags for two distinct platforms,
this writes a LC_BUILD_VERSION header for each.
The motivation is that this is needed for self-hosting with lld as linker
after D124059.
To create a zippered output at the clang driver level, pass
-target arm64-apple-macos -darwin-target-variant arm64-apple-ios-macabi
to create a zippered dylib.
(In Xcode's clang, `-darwin-target-variant` is spelled just `-target-variant`.)
(If you pass `-target arm64-apple-ios-macabi -target-variant arm64-apple-macos`
instead, ld64 crashes!)
This results in two -platform_version flags being passed to the linker.
ld64 also verifies that the iOS SDK version is at least 13.1. We don't do that
yet. But ld64 also does that for other platforms and we don't. So we need to
do that at some point, but not in this patch.
Only dylib and bundle outputs can be zippered.
I verified that a Catalyst app linked against a dylib created with
clang -shared foo.cc -o libfoo.dylib \
-target arm64-apple-macos \
-target-variant arm64-apple-ios-macabi \
-Wl,-install_name,@rpath/libfoo.dylib \
-fuse-ld=$PWD/out/gn/bin/ld64.lld
runs successfully. (The app calls a function `f()` in libfoo.dylib
that returns a const char* "foo", and NSLog(@"%s")s it.)
ld64 is a bit more permissive when writing zippered outputs,
see references to "unzippered twins". That's not implemented yet.
(If anybody wants to implement that, D124275 is a good start.)

We currently hard code RELRO sections. When a custom section is between
DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN and DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END, we may report a spurious
`error: section: ... is not contiguous with other relro sections`. GNU ld
makes such sections RELRO.
glibc recently switched to default --with-default-link=no. This configuration
places `__libc_atexit` and others between DATA_SEGMENT_ALIGN and
DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END. This patch allows such a ld.bfd --verbose
linker script to be fed into lld.

Similar to D117734. Take AArch64 as an example when the branch range is +-0x8000000.
getISDThunkSec returns `ts` when `src-0x8000000-r_addend <= tsBase < src-0x8000000`
and the new thunk will be placed in `ts` (`ts->addThunk(t)`). However, the new
thunk (at the end of ts) may be unreachable from src. In the next pass,
`normalizeExistingThunk` reverts the relocation back to the original target.
Then a new thunk is created and the same `ts` is picked as before. The `ts` is
still unreachable.
I have observed it in one test with a sufficiently large r_addend (47664): there
are initially 245 Thunk's, then in each pass 14 new Thunk's are created and get
appended to the unreachable ThunkSection. After 15 passes lld fails with
`thunk creation not converged`.
The new test aarch64-thunk-reuse2.s checks the case.
Without `- pcBias`, arm-thumb-thunk-empty-pass.s and arm-thunk-multipass-plt.s
will fail.

After 1af25a9860, we stop unconditionally
retaining wrapped symbols, which means that LTO's summary-based global
dead stripping can eliminate them even if they'll be referenced by a
linker script after the wrapping is performed. Mark symbols referenced
in linker scripts as `referenced` in addition to `isUsedInRegularObj`,
so that the wrapping logic correctly sets `referencedAfterWrap` for the
symbols which will be referenced after wrapping, which will prevent LTO
from eliminating them.
An alternative would have been to change the `referencedAfterWrap` logic
to look at `isUsedInRegularObj` in addition to `referenced`, but
`isUsedInRegularObj` is also set in other places (e.g. for the entry
symbol), and it's not clear that we want `referencedAfterWrap` to take
all those places into account, so it seemed better to keep that logic
as-is and instead set `referenced` for linker script-referenced symbols.
