-fno-pie produces a pair of non-GOT-non-PLT relocations R_PPC_ADDR16_{HA,LO} (R_ABS) referencing external
functions.
```
lis 3, func@ha
la 3, func@l(3)
```
In a -no-pie/-pie link, if func is not defined in the executable, a canonical PLT entry (st_value>0, st_shndx=0) will be needed.
References to func in shared objects will be resolved to this address.
-fno-pie -pie should fail with "can't create dynamic relocation ... against ...", so we just need to think about -no-pie.
On x86, the PLT entry passes the JMP_SLOT offset to the rtld PLT resolver.
On x86-64: the PLT entry passes the JUMP_SLOT index to the rtld PLT resolver.
On ARM/AArch64: the PLT entry passes &.got.plt[n]. The PLT header passes &.got.plt[fixed-index]. The rtld PLT resolver can compute the JUMP_SLOT index from the two addresses.
For these targets, the canonical PLT entry can just reuse the regular PLT entry (in PltSection).
On PPC32: PltSection (.glink) consists of `b PLTresolve` instructions and `PLTresolve`. The rtld PLT resolver depends on r11 having been set up to the .plt (GotPltSection) entry.
On PPC64 ELFv2: PltSection (.glink) consists of `__glink_PLTresolve` and `bl __glink_PLTresolve`. The rtld PLT resolver depends on r12 having been set up to the .plt (GotPltSection) entry.
We cannot reuse a `b PLTresolve`/`bl __glink_PLTresolve` in PltSection as a canonical PLT entry. PPC64 ELFv2 avoids the problem by using TOC for any external reference, even in non-pic code, so the canonical PLT entry scenario should not happen in the first place.
For PPC32, we have to create a PLT call stub as the canonical PLT entry. The code sequence sets up r11.

Summary:
Third part in series to support Safe Whole Program Devirtualization
Enablement, see RFC here:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-December/137543.html
This patch adds type test metadata under -fwhole-program-vtables,
even for classes without hidden visibility. It then changes WPD to skip
devirtualization for a virtual function call when any of the compatible
vtables has public vcall visibility.
Additionally, internal LLVM options as well as lld and gold-plugin
options are added which enable upgrading all public vcall visibility
to linkage unit (hidden) visibility during LTO. This enables the more
aggressive WPD to kick in based on LTO time knowledge of the visibility
guarantees.
Support was added to all flavors of LTO WPD (regular, hybrid and
index-only), and to both the new and old LTO APIs.
Unfortunately it was not simple to split the first and second parts of
this part of the change (the unconditional emission of type tests and
the upgrading of the vcall visiblity) as I needed a way to upgrade the
public visibility on legacy WPD llvm assembly tests that don't include
linkage unit vcall visibility specifiers, to avoid a lot of test churn.
I also added a mechanism to LowerTypeTests that allows dropping type
test assume sequences we now aggressively insert when we invoke
distributed ThinLTO backends with null indexes, which is used in testing
mode, and which doesn't invoke the normal ThinLTO backend pipeline.
Depends on D71907 and D71911.

Summary:
Linker scripts allow filenames to be put in double quotes to prevent
characters in filenames that are part of the linker script syntax from
having their special meaning. Case in point the * wildcard character.
Availability of double quoting filenames also allows to fix a failure in
ELF/linkerscript/filename-spec.s when the path contain a @ which the
lexer consider as a special characters and thus break up a filename
containing it. This may happens under Jenkins which createspath such as
pipeline@2.
To avoid the need for escaping GlobPattern metacharacters in filename
in double quotes, GlobPattern::create is augmented with a new parameter
to request literal matching instead of relying on the presence of a
wildcard character in the pattern.

Add new method getFirstInputSection and use instead of getInputSections
where appropriate to avoid creation of an unneeded vector of input
sections.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D73047
The INPUT_SECTION_FLAGS linker script command is used to constrain the
section pattern matching to sections that match certain combinations of
flags.
There are two ways to express the constraint.
withFlags: Section must have these flags.
withoutFlags: Section must not have these flags.
The syntax of the command is:
INPUT_SECTION_FLAGS '(' sect_flag_list ')'
sect_flag_list: NAME
| sect_flag_list '&' NAME
Where NAME matches a section flag name such as SHF_EXECINSTR, or the
integer value of a section flag. If the first character of NAME is ! then
it means must not contain flag.
We do not support the rare case of { INPUT_SECTION_FLAGS(flags) filespec }
where filespec has no input section description like (.text).
As an example from the ld man page:
SECTIONS {
.text : { INPUT_SECTION_FLAGS (SHF_MERGE & SHF_STRINGS) *(.text) }
.text2 : { INPUT_SECTION_FLAGS (!SHF_WRITE) *(.text) }
}
.text will match sections called .text that have both the SHF_MERGE and
SHF_STRINGS flag.
.text2 will match sections called .text that don't have the SHF_WRITE flag.
The flag names accepted are the generic to all targets and SHF_ARM_PURECODE
as it is very useful to filter all the pure code sections into a single
program header that can be marked execute never.

Summary:
Unlike R_RISCV_RELAX, which is a linker hint, R_RISCV_ALIGN requires the
support of the linker even when ignoring all R_RISCV_RELAX relocations.
This is because the compiler emits as many NOPs as may be required for
the requested alignment, more than may be required pre-relaxation, to
allow for the target becoming more unaligned after relaxing earlier
sequences. This means that the target is often not initially aligned in
the object files, and so the R_RISCV_ALIGN relocations cannot just be
ignored. Since we do not support linker relaxation, we must turn these
into errors.

In D71281 a fix was put in to round up the size of a ThunkSection to the
nearest 4KiB when performing errata patching. This fixed a problem with a
very large instrumented program that had thunks and patches mutually
trigger each other. Unfortunately it triggers an assertion failure in an
AArch64 allyesconfig build of the kernel. There is a specific assertion
preventing an InputSectionDescription being larger than 4KiB. This will
always trigger if there is at least one Thunk needed in that
InputSectionDescription, which is possible for an allyesconfig build.
Abstractly the problem case is:
.text : {
*(.text) ;
...
. = ALIGN(SZ_4K);
__idmap_text_start = .;
*(.idmap.text)
__idmap_text_end = .;
...
}
The assertion checks that __idmap_text_end - __idmap_start is < 4 KiB.
Note that there is more than one InputSectionDescription in the
OutputSection so we can't just restrict the fix to OutputSections smaller
than 4 KiB.
The fix presented here limits the D71281 to InputSectionDescriptions that
meet the following conditions:
1.) The OutputSection is bigger than the thunkSectionSpacing so adding
thunks will affect the addresses of following code.
2.) The InputSectionDescription is larger than 4 KiB. This will prevent
any assertion failures that an InputSectionDescription is < 4 KiB
in size.
We do this at ThunkSection creation time as at this point we know that
the addresses are stable and up to date prior to adding the thunks as
assignAddresses() will have been called immediately prior to thunk
generation.
The fix reverts the two tests affected by D71281 to their original state
as they no longer need the 4KiB size roundup. I've added simpler tests to
check for D71281 when the OutputSection size is larger than the ThunkSection
spacing.

Non-preemptible IFUNC are placed in in.iplt (.glink on EM_PPC64). If
there is a non-GOT non-PLT relocation, for pointer equality, we change
the type of the symbol from STT_IFUNC and STT_FUNC and bind it to the
.glink entry.
On EM_386, EM_X86_64, EM_ARM, and EM_AARCH64, the PLT code sequence
loads the address from its associated .got.plt slot. An IPLT also has an
associated .got.plt slot and can use the same code sequence.
On EM_PPC64, the PLT code sequence is actually a bl instruction in
.glink . It jumps to `__glink_PLTresolve` (the PLT header). and
`__glink_PLTresolve` computes the .plt slot (relocated by
R_PPC64_JUMP_SLOT).
An IPLT does not have an associated R_PPC64_JUMP_SLOT, so we cannot use
`bl` in .iplt . Instead, create a call stub which has a similar code
sequence as PPC64PltCallStub. We don't save the TOC pointer, so such
scenarios will not work: a function pointer to a non-preemptible ifunc,
which resolves to a function defined in another DSO. This is the
restriction described by https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/GNU_IFUNC

Requirement (a): Resolver must be defined in the same translation unit as the implementations.

PltSection is used by both PLT and IPLT. The PLT section may have a
header while the IPLT section does not. Split off IpltSection from
PltSection to be clearer.
Unlike other targets, PPC64 cannot use the same code sequence for PLT
and IPLT. This helps make a future PPC64 patch (D71509) more isolated.
On EM_386 and EM_X86_64, when PLT is empty while IPLT is not, currently
we are inconsistent whether the PLT header is conceptually attached to
in.plt or in.iplt . Consistently attach the header to in.plt can make
the -z retpolineplt logic simpler. It also makes `jmp` point to an
aesthetically better place for non-retpolineplt cases.

This change only affects EM_386. relOff can be computed from `index`
easily, so it is unnecessarily passed as a parameter.
Both in.plt and in.iplt entries are written by writePLT. For in.iplt,
the instruction `push reloc_offset` will change because `index` is now

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D70659
On some edge cases such as Chromium compiled with full instrumentation we
have a .text section over twice the size of the maximum branch range and
the instrumented code generation containing many examples of the erratum
sequence. The combination of Thunks and many erratum sequences causes
finalizeAddressDependentContent() to not converge. We end up with:
start
- Thunk Creation (disturbs addresses after thunks, creating more patches)
- Patch Creation (disturbs addresses after patches, creating more thunks)
- goto start
In most images with few thunks and patches the mutual disturbance does not
cause convergence problems. As the .text size and number of patches go up
the risk increases.
A way to prevent the thunk creation from interfering with patch creation is
to round up the size of the thunks to a 4KiB boundary when the
erratum patch is enabled. As the erratum sequence only triggers when an
instruction sequence starts at 0xff8 or 0xffc modulo (4 KiB) by making the
thunks not affect addresses modulo (4 KiB) we prevent thunks from
interfering with the patch.
The patches themselves could be aggregated in the same way that Thunks are
within ThunkSections and we could round up the size in the same way. This
would reduce the number of patches created in a .text section size >
128 MiB but would not likely help convergence problems.

// clang -target $target a.cc
// .text.cold may be placed in a separate output section.

On REL targets (ARM, MIPS), jumps/calls are not represented as

In GNU ld, -Ttext sets the address of the .text section and -Ttext-segment sets the address of the text segment (RX).
gold only supports the -Ttext-segment semantic and treats -Ttext as an alias for -Ttext-segment.
lld only supports the -Ttext semantic and treats -Ttext-segment as an
alias for -Ttext. The text segment will be assigned to an address less
than the specified -Ttext-segment value.
This patch drops the -Ttext-segment alias.
The text segment is traditionally the first segment. Users who specify
-Ttext-segment may actually want to specify --image-base, the lld way to
express this. Unfortunately currently this is supported by GNU ld's
COFF port but not by its ELF port. gold does not support this option.

symbol at run time. I discovered this problem when attempting to boot

Based on D70020 by serge-sans-paille.
The ELF spec says:
> Furthermore, there may be internal references among these sections that would not make sense if one of the sections were removed or replaced by a duplicate from another object. Therefore, such groups must be included or omitted from the linked object as a unit. A section cannot be a member of more than one group.
GNU ld has 2 behaviors that we don't have:
- Group members (nextInSectionGroup != nullptr) are subject to garbage collection.
This includes non-SHF_ALLOC SHT_NOTE sections.
In particular, discarding non-SHF_ALLOC SHT_NOTE sections is an expected behavior by the Annobin
project. See
https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2018/02/20/annobin-storing-information-binaries/
for more information.
- Groups members are retained or discarded as a unit.
Members may have internal references that are not expressed as
SHF_LINK_ORDER, relocations, etc. It seems that we should be more conservative here:
if a section is marked live, mark all the other member within the
group.
Both behaviors are reasonable. This patch implements them.
A new field InputSectionBase::nextInSectionGroup tracks the next member
within a group. on ELF64, this increases sizeof(InputSectionBase) froms
144 to 152.
InputSectionBase::dependentSections tracks section dependencies, which
is used by both --gc-sections and /DISCARD/. We can't overload it for
the "next member" semantic, because we should allow /DISCARD/ to discard
sections independent of --gc-sections (GNU ld behavior). This behavior
may be reasonably used by `/DISCARD/ : { *(.ARM.exidx*) }` or `/DISCARD/
: { *(.note*) }` (new test `linkerscript/discard-group.s`).

Justification for making stdoutOS and stderrOS mandatory: I wanted to
make link() functions to take stdout and stderr in that order.
However, if we change the function signature from
bool link(ArrayRef<const char *> args, bool canExitEarly,
raw_ostream &stderrOS = llvm::errs());
to
bool link(ArrayRef<const char *> args, bool canExitEarly,
raw_ostream &stdoutOS = llvm::outs(),
raw_ostream &stderrOS = llvm::errs());
, then the meaning of existing code that passes stderrOS silently
changes (stderrOS would be interpreted as stdoutOS). So, I chose to
make existing code not to compile, so that developers can fix their
code.

Summary:
Add a flag `F_no_mmap` to `FileOutputBuffer` to support
`--[no-]mmap-output-file` in ELF LLD. LLD currently explicitly ignores
this flag for compatibility with GNU ld and gold.
We need this flag to speed up link time for large binaries in certain
scenarios. When we link some of our larger binaries we find that LLD
takes 50+ GB of memory, which causes memory pressure. The memory
pressure causes the VM to flush dirty pages of the output file to disk.
This is normally okay, since we should be flushing cold pages. However,
when using BtrFS with compression we need to write 128KB at a time when
we flush a page. If any page in that 128KB block is written again, then
it must be flushed a second time, and so on. Since LLD doesn't write
sequentially this causes write amplification. The same 128KB block will
end up being flushed multiple times, causing the linker to many times
more IO than necessary. We've observed 3-5x faster builds with
-no-mmap-output-file when we hit this scenario.
The bad scenario only applies to compressed filesystems, which group
together multiple pages into a single compressed block. I've tested
BtrFS, but the problem will be present for any compressed filesystem
on Linux, since it is caused by the VM.
Silently ignoring --no-mmap-output-file caused a silent regression when
we switched from gold to lld. We pass --no-mmap-output-file to fix this
edge case, but since lld silently ignored the flag we didn't realize it
wasn't being respected.
Benchmark building a 9 GB binary that exposes this edge case. I linked 3
times with --mmap-output-file and 3 times with --no-mmap-output-file and
took the average. The machine has 24 cores @ 2.4 GHz, 112 GB of RAM,
BtrFS mounted with -compress-force=zstd, and an 80% full disk.
| Mode | Time |
|---------|-------|
| mmap | 894 s |
| no mmap | 126 s |
When compression is disabled, BtrFS performs just as well with and
without mmap on this benchmark.
I was unable to reproduce the regression with any binaries in
lld-speed-test.
