I will eventually make `evaluate` function a usual parse function
rather than a function that works on a separate token list.
This is the first step toward that.

You can instruct the linker to not discard sections even if they
are unused and --gc-sections option is given. The linker script
command for doing that is KEEP. The syntax is KEEP(foo) where foo
is a section name. KEEP commands are written in SECTIONS command,
so you can specify the order of sections *and* which sections
will be kept.
Each sub-command in SECTIONS command are translated into SectionRule
object. Previously, each SectionRule has `Keep` bit. However,
if you think about it, this hid information in too deep in elements
of a list. Semantically, KEEP commands aren't really related to
SECTIONS subcommands. We can keep the section list for KEEP in a
separate list. This patch does that.
llvm-svn: 267065
Since there is a copy in every translation unit that uses them, they can
be omitted from the symbol table if the address is not significant.
This still doesn't catch as many cases as the gold plugin. The
difference is that we check canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable in each file and
use lazy loading which limits what it can do. Gold checks it in the merged file.
I think the correct way of getting the same results as gold is just to
cache in the IR the result of canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable.

I noticed that I was looking for the definition of SymPair when hacking
the Writer, only to find that it is just a pair of DefinedRegular symbols.
I don't think it provides more values than the cost of using brainpower
to memorize the type. I didn't roll back r266317, which introduced SymPair,
because the patch removes code repetitions. I ported that change to new
code.

GNU ld and gold only support the discard-all and discard-locals with two dashes.
Retain the compatibility with the one dash spelling, but also accept the two
dashed form.

`--add-needed` and `--no-add-needed` have been deprecated due to the similarity
of their spelling to `--as-needed` and `--no-as-needed`. They have been renamed
to `--copy-dt-needed-entries` and `--no-copy-dt-needed-entries`.

Rafael reported on the mailing list that this reduces peak memory
usage while linking llvm-as by 15%. It makes sense to make it
the default, and introduce an inverse knob -lto-no-discard-value-names
for those who want to restore the old behavior.
llvm-svn: 267020
The gold plugin logic for common symbols is a little bit convoluted
as the plugin API has not an explicit way to update the alignment.
In gold, then, we need to keep the bitcode symbol @a around because
that's the only way to get the alignment right in the final object.
In lld, this is not true. We already have all the informations we
need about common symbols (size/alignment) so we don't have to
keep the existing symbol and pass it to the mover.

SectionOrder vector was a part of LinkerScript class.
It can be removed because Commands vector contains the
same information and SectiorOrder is just a subset.

These relocations are calculated as S + A - DTPREL or S + A - TPREL,
where DTPREL = TlsVA - 0x8000, TPREL = TlsVA - 0x7000. So the result
is relative to the TLS output section and is not an absolut value
The fix allows to escape creation of unnecessary dynamic relocations
in case of DSO linking.
llvm-svn: 266923
MIPS ABI turns using of GOT and dynamic relocations inside out. While
regular ABI uses dynamic relocations to fill up GOT entries MIPS ABI
requires dynamic linker to fills up GOT entries using specially sorted
dynamic symbol table. This affects even dynamic relocations against
symbols which do not require GOT entries creation explicitly, i.e. do
not have any GOT-relocations. So if a preemptible symbol has a dynamic
relocation we anyway have to create a GOT entry for it.
If a non-preemptible symbol has a dynamic relocation against it, dynamic
linker takes it st_value, adds offset and writes down result of the
dynamic relocation. In case of preemptible symbol dynamic linker
performs symbol resolution, writes the symbol value to the GOT entry and
reads the GOT entry when it needs to perform a dynamic relocation.

Previously the function reads an operator and the rest of
the expressions. This patch makes it to actually parse an expression
which starts with a primary pexression followed by other expressions
concatenated with operators.

Originally, linker scripts were basically an alternative way to specify
options to the command line options. But as we add more features to hanlde
symbols and sections, many member functions needed to be templated.
Now most the members are templated. It is probably time to template the
entire class.
Previously, LinkerScript is an executor of the linker script as well as
a storage of linker script configurations. This is not suitable to template
the class because when we are reading linker script files, we don't know
the ELF type yet, so we can't instantiate ELF-templated classes.
In this patch, I defined a new class, ScriptConfiguration, to store
linker script configurations. ScriptParser writes parse results to it,
and LinkerScript uses them.

It is now redundant. Writer.cpp can reason that 2 dynamic relocations

This reverts commit r266618. It breaks basically everything.
I think VS2013 doesn't interpret this code in the same way.
The size field (at least) is left uninitialized, causing all sorts of havok
(e.g. creating a 34GB file for a trivial hello world program).
The offending compiler reports itself as follows:

This patch is based heavily on George Rimor's patch
http://reviews.llvm.org/D19221.
In the linker script, you can write expressions to compute addresses.
Currently we only support "+" operator. This adds a few more operators.
Since this patch adds * and /, we need to handle operator precedences
properly. I implemented that using the operator-precedence grammar.

Manifest file is a separate or embedded XML file having metadata
of an executable. As it is XML, it can contain various types of
information. Probably the most popular one is to request escalated
priviledges.
Usually the linker creates an XML file and embed that file into
an executable. However, there's a way to supply an XML file from
command line. /manifestniput is it.
Apparently it is over-designed here, but if you supply two or more
manifest files, then the linker needs to merge the files into a
single XML file. A good news is that we don't need to do that ourselves.
MT.exe command can do that, so we call the command from the linker
in this patch.

This requires adding a few more expression types, but is already a small
simplification. Having Writer.cpp know the exact expression will also
allow further simplifications.

Initial commit message:
[ELF] - Implemented basic location counter support.
This patch implements location counter support.
It also separates assign addresses for sections to assignAddressesScript() if it scipt exists.
Main testcase is test/ELF/linkerscript-locationcounter.s, It contains some work with location counter. It is basic now.
Implemented location counter assignment and '+' operations.
Patch by myself with LOTS of comments and design suggestions from Rui Ueyama.

The _gp_disp symbol designates offset between start of function and 'gp'
pointer into GOT. The following code is a typical MIPS function preamble
used to setup $gp register:
lui $gp, %hi(_gp_disp)
addi $gp, $gp, %lo(_gp_disp)
To calculate R_MIPS_HI16 / R_MIPS_LO16 relocations results we use
the following formulas:
%hi(_gp - P + A)
%lo(_gp - P + A + 4),
where _gp is a value of _gp symbol, A is addend, and P current address.
The R_MIPS_LO16 relocation references _gp_disp symbol is always the second
instruction. That is why we need four byte adjustments. The patch assigns
R_PC type for R_MIPS_LO16 relocation and adjusts its addend by 4. That fix
R_MIPS_LO16 calculation.
