Unlike ObjectFile or ArchiveFile, SharedFile had two parse functions,
parseSoName() and parse(). parse must have been called after parseSoName,
but that requirement was not obvious from their names. (So it looked
like you could call parse() on a shared object file right away.)
This patch rename parseRest. It is now obvious that there's no single
parse function for the shared object file.

There are 3 symbol types that a .bc can provide during lto: defined,
undefined, common.
Defined and undefined symbols have already been refactored. I was
working on common and noticed that absolute symbols would become an
oddity: They would be the only symbol type present in a .o but not in
a.bc.
Looking a bit more, other than the special section number they were only
used for special rules for computing values. In that way they are
similar to TLS, and we don't have a DefinedTLS.
This patch deletes it. With it we have a reasonable rule of the thumb
for having a symbol kind: It exists if it has special resolution
semantics.

I am working on adding LTO support to the new ELF lld.
In order to do that, it will be necessary to represent defined and
undefined symbols that are not from ELF files. One way to do it is to
change the symbol hierarchy to look like
Defined : SymbolBody
Undefined : SymbolBody
DefinedElf<ELFT> : Defined
UndefinedElf<ELFT> : Undefined
Another option would be to use bogus Elf_Sym, but I think that is
getting a bit too hackish.
This patch does the Undefined/UndefinedElf. Split. The next one
will do the Defined/DefinedElf split.

The function was used only in Writer.cpp and did not depend on SymbolTable.
There is no reason to have that function in SymbolTable.cpp.
llvm-svn: 255850
addELFFile was called only from addFile, and what it did was actually
just adding a file to the symbol table. There seems to be no reason
to separate the two.

The `_gp_disp` is a magic symbol designates offset between start of
function and gp pointer into GOT. Only `R_MIPS_HI16` and `R_MIPS_LO16`
relocations are permitted with `_gp_disp`. The patch adds the `_gp_disp`
as an ignored symbol and adjusts symbol value before call the `relocateOne`
for `R_MIPS_HI16/LO16` relocations.

This patch implements R_MIPS_GOT16 relocation for global symbols in order to
generate some entries in GOT. Only reserved and global entries are supported
for now. For the detailed description about GOT in MIPS, see "Global Offset
Table" in Chapter 5 in the followin document:
ftp://www.linux-mips.org/pub/linux/mips/doc/ABI/mipsabi.pdf
In addition, the platform specific symbol "_gp" is added, see "Global Data
Symbols" in Chapter 6 in the aforementioned document.

This patch is to use ELFT instead of Is64Bits to template OutputSection
and its subclasses. This increases code size slightly because it creates
two identical functions for some classes, but that's only 20 KB out of
33 MB, so it's negligible.
This is as per discussion with Rafael. He's not fan of the idea but OK
with this. We'll revisit later to this topic.

If a section name is valid as a C identifier (which is rare because of
the leading '.'), linkers are expected to define __start_<secname> and
__stop_<secname> symbols. They are at beginning and end of the section,
respectively. This is not requested by the ELF standard, but GNU ld and
gold provide this feature.

"finalize" does not give a hint about what that function is actually
going to do. This patch make it more specific by renaming scanShlibUndefined.
Also add a comment that we basically ignore undefined symbols in DSOs except
this function.
llvm-svn: 250191
BSD's DSO files have undefined symbol "__progname" which is defined
in crt1.o. On that system, both user programs and system shared
libraries depend on each other.
In general, we need to put symbols defined by user programs which are
referenced by shared libraries to user program's .dynsym.

SymbolTable was not a right place for initialization. We had to do that
because Driver didn't know what type of ELF objects are being handled.
We taught Driver that, so we can now move this code to Driver.
llvm-svn: 249904
SymbolTable was not a template class. Instead we had switch-case-based
type dispatch to call desired functions. We had to do that because
SymbolTable was created before we know what ELF type objects had been
passed.
Every time I tried to add a new function to the symbol table, I had to
define a dispatcher which consist of a single switch statement.
It also brought an restriction what the driver can do. For example,
we cannot add undefined symbols before any files are added to the symbol
table. That's because no symbols can be added until the symbol table
knows the ELF type, but when it knows about that, it's too late.
In this patch, the driver makes a decision on what ELF type objects
are being handled. Then the driver creates a SymbolTable object for
an appropriate ELF type.
