Previously this flag was just ignored. If set, set the
IMAGE_DLL_CHARACTERISTICS_NO_SEH bit, regardless of the normal safeSEH
machinery.
In mingw configurations, the safeSEH bit might not be set in e.g. object
files built from handwritten assembly, making it impossible to use the
normal safeseh flag. As mingw setups don't generally use SEH on 32 bit
x86 at all, it should be fine to set that flag bit though - hook up
the existing GNU ld flag for controlling that.

Allow disabling either the full auto import feature, or just
forbidding the cases that require runtime fixups.
As long as all auto imported variables are referenced from separate
.refptr$<name> sections, we can alias them on top of the IAT entries
and don't actually need any runtime fixups via pseudo relocations.
LLVM generates references to variables in .refptr stubs, if it
isn't known that the variable for sure is defined in the same object
module. Runtime pseudo relocs are needed if the addresses of auto
imported variables are used in constant initializers though.
Fixing up runtime pseudo relocations requires the use of
VirtualProtect (which is disallowed in WinStore/UWP apps) or
VirtualProtectFromApp. To allow any risk of ambiguity, allow
rejecting cases that would require this at the linker stage.
This adds support for the --disable-runtime-pseudo-reloc and
--disable-auto-import options in the MinGW driver (matching GNU ld.bfd)
with corresponding lld private options in the COFF driver.

Essentially takes the lld/Common/Threads.h wrappers and moves them to
the llvm/Support/Paralle.h algorithm header.
The changes are:
- Remove policy parameter, since all clients use `par`.
- Rename the methods to `parallelSort` etc to match LLVM style, since
they are no longer C++17 pstl compatible.
- Move algorithms from llvm::parallel:: to llvm::, since they have
"parallel" in the name and are no longer overloads of the regular
algorithms.
- Add range overloads
- Use the sequential algorithm directly when 1 thread is requested
(skips task grouping)
- Fix the index type of parallelForEachN to size_t. Nobody in LLVM was
using any other parameter, and it made overload resolution hard for
for_each_n(par, 0, foo.size(), ...) because 0 is int, not size_t.
Remove Threads.h and update LLD for that.
This is a prerequisite for parallel public symbol processing in the PDB
library, which is in LLVM.

This patch adds a new parmeter to lld::*::link() so that we can pass
an raw_ostream object representing stdout. Previously, lld::*::link()
took only an stderr object.
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.

Recent versions of Microsoft's dumpbin tool cannot handle such PE files.
LLVM tools and GNU tools can, and use this to encode long section names

This is a re-land of r370487 with a fix for the use-after-free bug
that rev contained.
This implements -start-lib and -end-lib flags for lld-link, analogous
to the similarly named options in ld.lld. Object files after
-start-lib are included in the link only when needed to resolve
undefined symbols. The -end-lib flag goes back to the normal behavior
of always including object files in the link. This mimics the
semantics of static libraries, but without needing to actually create
the archive file.

This is used by Wine for manually crafting export tables.
If the input object contains .edata sections, GNU ld references them
in the export directory instead of synthesizing an export table using
either export directives or the normal auto export mechanism. (AFAIK,
historically, way way back, GNU ld didn't support synthesizing the
export table - one was supposed to generate it using dlltool and link
it in instead.)
If faced with --out-implib and --output-def, GNU ld still populates
those output files with the same export info as it would have generated
otherwise, disregarding the input .edata. As this isn't an intended
usage combination, I'm not adding checks for that in tests.

These symbols actually point to the symbol's IAT entry, which
obviously is different from the symbol itself (which is imported
from a different module and doesn't exist in the current one).
Omitting this symbol helps gdb inspect automatically imported
symbols, see https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24574
for discussion on the matter.
Surprisingly, those extra symbols don't seem to be an issue for
gdb when the sources have been built with clang, only with gcc.
The actual logic in gdb that this depends on still is unknown, but
omitting these symbols from the symbol table is the right thing to
do in any case.

Code built for mingw with -fdata-sections will store each TLS variable
in a comdat section, named .tls$$<varname>. Normal TLS variables are
stored in sections named .tls$ with a trailing dollar, which are
sorted after a starter marker (in a later linked object file) in a
section named ".tls" (with no dollar suffix), before an ending marker
in a section named ".tls$ZZZ".
The mingw comdat section suffix stripping introduced in SVN r363457
broke sorting of such tls sections, ending up sorting the stripped
.tls$$<varname> sections (stripped to ".tls") before the start marker
in the section named ".tls".
We could add exceptions to the section name suffix stripping for
.tls (and .CRT, where suffixes always should be honored), but the
more conservative option is probably the reverse; to only apply the
stripping for the normal sections where sorting shouldn't have any
effect.

Summary:
Fixes PR41828. Before this, LLD always emitted SafeSEH chunks and
defined __safe_se_handler_table & size. Now, /safeseh:no leaves those
undefined.
Additionally, we were checking for the safeseh @feat.00 flag in two
places: once to emit errors, and once during safeseh table construction.
The error was set up to be off by default, but safeseh is supposed to be
on by default. I combined the two checks, so now LLD emits an error if
an input object lacks @feat.00 and safeseh is enabled. This caused the
majority of 32-bit LLD tests to fail, since many test input object files
lack @feat.00 symbols. I explicitly added -safeseh:no to those tests to
preserve behavior.
Finally, LLD no longer sets IMAGE_DLL_CHARACTERISTICS_NO_SEH if any
input file wasn't compiled for safeseh.

Prior to this change, every implementation of writeTo would add
OutputSectionOff to the output section buffer start before writing data.
Instead, do this math in the caller, so that it can be written once

The output section offset is always equivalent to the difference between
the chunk RVA and the output section RVA, so we can replace the one
remaining usage of OutputSectionOff with that subtraction.
This doesn't change the size of SectionChunk because of alignment
requirements, but I will rearrange the fields in a follow-up change to
accomplish that.

SectionChunk is one of the most frequently allocated data structures in
LLD, since there are about four per function when optimizations and
debug info are enabled (.text, .pdata, .xdata, .debug$S).
A PE COFF file cannot be larger than 2GB, so there is an inherent limit
on the length of the section name and the number of relocations.
Decompose the ArrayRef and StringRef into pointer and size, and put them
back together in the accessors for section name and relocation list.
I plan to gather complete performance numbers later by padding
SectionChunk with dead data and measuring performance after all the size
optimizations are done.

Summary:
This avoids allocating O(#relocs) of intermediate data for each section
when range extension thunks aren't needed for that section. This also
removes a std::vector from SectionChunk, which further reduces its size.
Instead, this change adds the range extension thunk symbols to the
object files that contain sections that need extension thunks. By adding
them to the symbol table of the parent object, that means they now have
a symbol table index. Then we can then modify the original relocation,
after copying it to read-write memory, to use the new symbol table
index.
This makes linking browser_tests.exe with no PDB 10.46% faster, moving
it from 11.364s to 10.288s averaged over five runs.

For MinGW, unique partial sections are much more common, e.g.
comdat functions get sections named e.g. text$symbol.
A moderate sized example of this contains over 200K Chunks

(D57574), linking this took around 1,5 seconds for me, while
it afterwards takes around 13 minutes. After this patch, the
linking time is back to what it was before.

the whole container until a match is found. To use something like
