Right now we just remember a SymbolBody for each got entry and
duplicate a bit of logic to decide what value, if any, should be
written for that SymbolBody.
With ARM there will be more complicated values, and it seems better to
just use the relocation code to fill the got entries. This makes it
clear that each entry is filled by the dynamic linker or by the static
linker.

That unifies handling cases when we have SECTIONS and when
-no-rosegment is given in compareSectionsNonScript()
Now Config->SingleRoRx is used for check, testcase is provided.
llvm-svn: 288022
Previously Config->SingleRoRx was set in
createFiles() and used HasSections.
This change moves it to readConfigs at place of
common flags handling, and adds logic that sets
this flag separatelly from ScriptParser if SECTIONS present.

Unfortunatelly PT_ARM_EXIDX is special. There is no way to create it
from linker scripts, so we have to create it even if PHDRS is used.
This matches bfd and is required for the lld output to survive bfd's strip.
llvm-svn: 288012
Unfortunatelly some scripts look like
kernphys = ...
. = ....
and the expectation in that every orphan section is after the
assignment.
llvm-svn: 287996
This is an horrible special case, but seems to match bfd's behaviour
and is important for avoiding placing an orphan section before the
expected start of the file.

They return new vectors, but at the same time they mutate other vectors,
so returning values doesn't make much sense. We should just mutate two
vectors.

-color-diagnostics=auto is default because that's the same as
Clang's default. When color is enabled, error or warning messages
are colored like this.
error:
<bold>ld.lld</bold> <red>error:</red> foo.o: no such file
warning:
<bold>ld.lld</bold> <magenta>warning:</magenta> foo.o: no such file

Uncompressing section contents and spliting mergeable section contents
into smaller chunks are heavy tasks. They scan entire section contents
and do CPU-intensive tasks such as uncompressing zlib-compressed data
or computing a hash value for each section piece.
Luckily, these tasks are independent to each other, so we can do that
in parallel_for_each. The number of input sections is large (as opposed
to the number of output sections), so there's a large parallelism here.
Actually the current design to call uncompress() and splitIntoPieces()
in batch was chosen with doing this in mind. Basically what we need to
do here is to replace `for` with `parallel_for_each`.
It seems this patch improves latency significantly if linked programs
contain debug info (which in turn contain lots of mergeable strings.)
For example, the latency to link Clang (debug build) improved by 20% on
my machine as shown below. Note that ld.gold took 19.2 seconds to do
the same thing.

The function was used only within Relocations.cpp, but now we are
using it in many places, so this patch moves it to a file that fits
to the functionality.
llvm-svn: 287943
This is important for cases like:
.sdata : {
*(.got.plt .got)
...
}
That was not supported before as there was no way to get access to
synthetic sections from script.

The .ARM.exidx table has an entry for each function with the first entry
giving the start address of the function, the table is sorted in ascending
order of function address. Given a PC value, the unwinder will search the
table for the entry that contains the PC value.
If the table entry happens to be the last, the range of the addresses that
the final unwinding table describes will extend to the end of the address
space. To prevent an incorrect address outside the address range of the
program matching the last entry we follow ld.bfd's example and add a
sentinel EXIDX_CANTUNWIND entry at the end of the table. This gives the
final real table entry an upper bound.
In addition the llvm libunwind unwinder currently depends on the presence
of a sentinel entry (PR31091).

rL287555 introduces a link error when building with BUILD_SHARED_LIBS:
undefined reference to llvm::codeview::CVSymbolDumper::dump(),

Previously, if a symbol specified by -e or ENTRY() is not found,
we didn't set entry point address. That is incompatible with GNU
because GNU linkers set the first address of .text to entry.
This patch implement that behavior.

Offset between beginning of a .got section and _gp symbols used in MIPS
GOT relocations calculations. Usually the expression looks like
VA + Offset - GP, where VA is the .got section address, Offset - offset
of the GOT entry, GP - offset between .got and _gp. Also there two "magic"
symbols _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp which hold the offset mentioned above.
These symbols might be referenced by MIPS relocations.
Now the linker always defines _gp symbol and uses hardcoded value for
its initialization. So offset between .got and _gp is 0x7ff0. The _gp_disp
and __gnu_local_gp defined if required and initialized by 0x7ff0.
In fact that is not correct because _gp symbol might be defined by a linker
script and holds arbitrary value. In that case we need to use this value
in relocation calculation and initialize _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp
properly.
The patch fixes the problem and completes fixing the bug #30311.

This is in the context of https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=31109.
When LLD prints out errors for relocations, it tends to print out
extremely large number of errors (like millions) because it would
print out one error per relocation.
This patch makes LLD bail out if it prints out more than 20 errors.
You can configure the limitation using -error-limit argument.
-error-limit=0 means no limit.
I chose the flag name because Clang has the same feature as -ferror-limit.
"f" doesn't make sense to us, so I omitted it.

We have different functions to stringize objects to construct
error messages. For InputFile, we have getFilename, and for
InputSection, we have getName. You had to memorize them.
I think this is the case where the function overloading comes in handy.
This patch defines toString() functions that are overloaded for all these
types, so that you just call it in error().
