* GNU ld places non-SHF_ALLOC sections after SHF_ALLOC sections. This has the
advantage that the file offsets of a non-SHF_ALLOC cannot be contained in
a PT_LOAD. This patch matches the behavior.
* For non-SHF_ALLOC non-orphan sections, GNU ld may assign non-zero sh_addr and
treat them similar to SHT_NOBITS (not advance location counter). This
is an alternative approach to what we have done in D85100.
By placing non-SHF_ALLOC sections at the end, we can drop special
cases in createSection and findOrphanPos added by D85100.
Different from GNU ld, we set sh_addr to 0 for non-SHF_ALLOC sections. 0
arguably is better because non-SHF_ALLOC sections don't appear in the memory
image.
ELF spec says:
> sh_addr - If the section will appear in the memory image of a process, this
> member gives the address at which the section's first byte should
> reside. Otherwise, the member contains 0.
D85100 appeared to take a detour. If we take a combined view on D85100 and this
patch, the overall complexity slightly increases (one more 3-line loop) and
compatibility with GNU ld improves.
The behavior we don't want to match is the special treatment of .symtab
.shstrtab .strtab: they can be matched in LLD but not in GNU ld.

LLD currently does not allow non-contiguous SHF_LINK_ORDER components in an
output section. This makes it infeasible to add SHF_LINK_ORDER to an existing
metadata section if backward compatibility with older object files are
concerned.
We did not allow mixed components (like GNU ld) and D77007 relaxed to allow
non-contiguous SHF_LINK_ORDER components. This patch allows arbitrary mix, with
sorting performed within an InputSectionDescription. For example,
`.rodata : {*(.rodata.foo) *(.rodata.bar)}`, has two InputSectionDescription's.
If there is at least one SHF_LINK_ORDER and at least one non-SHF_LINK_ORDER in
.rodata.foo, they are ordered within `*(.rodata.foo)`: we arbitrarily place
SHF_LINK_ORDER components before non-SHF_LINK_ORDER components (like Solaris ld).
`*(.rodata.bar)` is ordered similarly, but the two InputSectionDescription's
don't interact. It can be argued that this is more reasonable than the previous
behavior where written order was not respected.
It would be nice if the two different semantics (ordering requirement & garbage
collection) were not overloaded on one section flag, however, it is probably
difficult to obtain a generic flag at this point
(https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/generic-abi/hgx_m1aXqUo
"SHF_LINK_ORDER's original semantics make upgrade difficult").
(Actually, without the GC semantics, SHF_LINK_ORDER would still have the
sh_link!=0 & sh_link=0 issue. It is just that people find the GC semantics more
useful and tend to use the feature more often.)

This patch implements the handling for the R_PPC64_PCREL_OPT relocation as well
as the GOT relocation for the associated R_PPC64_GOT_PCREL34 relocation.
On Power10 targets with PC-Relative addressing, the linker can relax
GOT-relative accesses to PC-Relative under some conditions. Since the sequence
consists of a prefixed load, followed by a non-prefixed access (load or store),
the linker needs to replace the first instruction (as the replacement
instruction will be prefixed). The compiler communicates to the linker that
this optimization is safe by placing the two aforementioned relocations on the
GOT load (of the address).
The linker then does two things:
- Convert the load from the got into a PC-Relative add to compute the address
relative to the PC
- Find the instruction referred to by the second relocation (R_PPC64_PCREL_OPT)
and replace the first with the PC-Relative version of it
It is important to synchronize the mapping from legacy memory instructions to
their PC-Relative form. Hence, this patch adds a file to be included by both
the compiler and the linker so they're always in agreement.

This makes the test introduced in 537f5483fe more robust with respect
to the actual version number. The previous regex restricted the version
to start with a leading `1` which was overly restrictive.
-gdwarf-5 -fdebug-types-section may produce multiple .debug_info sections. All
except one are type units (.debug_types before DWARF v5). When constructing
.gdb_index, we should ignore these type units. We use a simple heuristic: the
compile unit does not have the SHF_GROUP flag. (This needs to be revisited if
people place compile unit .debug_info in COMDAT groups.)
This issue manifests as a data race: because an object file may have multiple
.debug_info sections, we may concurrently construct `LLDDwarfObj` for the same
file in multiple threads. The threads may access `InputSectionBase::data()`
concurrently on the same input section. `InputSectionBase::data()` does a lazy
uncompress() and rewrites the member variable `rawData`. A thread running zlib
`inflate()` (transitively called by uncompress()) on a buffer with `rawData`
tampered by another thread may fail with `uncompress failed: zlib error: Z_DATA_ERROR`.
Even if no data race occurred in an optimistic run, if there are N .debug_info,
one CU entry and its address ranges will be replicated N times. The result
.gdb_index can be much larger than a correct one.
The new test gdb-index-dwarf5-type-unit.s actually has two compile units. This
cannot be produced with regular approaches (it can be produced with -r
--unique). This is used to demonstrate that the .gdb_index construction code
only considers the last non-SHF_GROUP .debug_info

We can identify thread-locals in dylibs by a flag in their export trie

Some external tools that we are using (Recode, Live++) are extracting the information to reproduce a build without any knowledge of the build system. The LF_BUILDINFO stores a full path to the compiler, the PWD (CWD at program startup), a relative or absolute path to the TU, and the full CC1 command line. The command line needs to be freestanding (not depend on any environment variables). In the same way, MSVC doesn't store the provided command-line, but an expanded version (somehow their equivalent of CC1) which is also freestanding.

This diff implements support for TLV relocations that reference defined
symbols. On x86_64, TLV relocations are always used with movq opcodes, so for
defined TLVs, we don't need to create a synthetic section to store the
addresses of the symbols -- we can just convert the `movq` to a `leaq`.
One notable quirk of Mach-O's TLVs is that absolute-address relocations
inside TLV-defining sections behave differently -- their addresses are
no longer absolute, but relative to the start of the target section.

tl;dr See D81784 for the 'tombstone value' concept. This patch changes our behavior to be almost the same as GNU ld (except that we also use 1 for .debug_loc):
* .debug_ranges & .debug_loc: 1 (LLD<11: 0+addend; GNU ld uses 1 for .debug_ranges)
* .debug_*: 0 (LLD<11: 0+addend; GNU ld uses 0; future LLD: -1)
We make the tweaks because:
1) The new tombstone is novel and needs more time to be adopted by consumers before it's the default.
2) The old (gold) strategy had problems with zero-length functions - so rather than going back that, we're going to the GNU ld strategy which doesn't have that problem.
3) One slight tweak to (2) is to apply the .debug_ranges workaround to .debug_loc for the same reasons it applies to debug_ranges - to avoid terminating lists early.

The tombstone value -1 in .debug_line caused problems to lldb (fixed by D83957;
will be included in 11.0.0) and breakpad (fixed by
https://crrev.com/c/2321300). It may potentially affects other DWARF consumers.
For .debug_ranges & .debug_loc: 1, an argument preferring 1 (GNU ld for .debug_ranges) over -2 is that:
```
{-1, -2} <<< base address selection entry
{0, length} <<< address range
```
may create a situation where low_pc is greater than high_pc. So we use
1, the GNU ld behavior for .debug_ranges
For other .debug_* sections, there haven't been many reports. One issue is that
bloaty (src/dwarf.cc) can incorrectly count address ranges in .debug_ranges . To
reduce similar disruption, this patch changes the tombstone values to be similar to GNU ld.
This does mean another behavior change to the default trunk behavior. Sorry
about it. The default trunk behavior will be similar to release/11.x while we work on a transition plan for LLD users.

GNU ld allows sections after a non-SHF_ALLOC section to be covered by PT_LOAD

SHF_ALLOC NOBITS sections. The location counter is not advanced).
This patch tries to fix PR37607 (remove a special case in
`Writer<ELFT>::createPhdrs`). To make the created PT_LOAD meaningful, we cannot
reset dot to 0 for a middle non-SHF_ALLOC output section. This results in
removal of two special cases in LinkerScript::assignOffsets. Non-SHF_ALLOC
non-orphan sections can have non-zero addresses like in GNU ld.
The zero address rule for non-SHF_ALLOC sections is weakened to apply to orphan
only. This results in a special case in createSection and findOrphanPos, respectively.
