Fangrui Song db5e078690 [LTO] Add SelectionKind to IRSymtab and use it in ld.lld/LLVMgold
In PGO, a C++ external linkage function `foo` has a private counter
`__profc_foo` and a private `__profd_foo` in a `comdat nodeduplicate`.

A `__attribute__((weak))` function `foo` has a weak hidden counter `__profc_foo`
and a private `__profd_foo` in a `comdat nodeduplicate`.

In `ld.lld a.o b.o`, say a.o defines an external linkage `foo` and b.o
defines a weak `foo`. Currently we treat `comdat nodeduplicate` as `comdat any`,
ld.lld will incorrectly consider `b.o:__profc_foo` non-prevailing.  In the worst
case when `b.o:__profd_foo` is retained and `b.o:__profc_foo` isn't, there will
be dangling reference causing an `undefined hidden symbol` error.

Add SelectionKind to `Comdat` in IRSymtab and let linkers ignore nodeduplicate comdat.

Martin Storsjö ce211c505b [LLD] [COFF] Fix up missing stdcall decorations in MinGW mode
If linking directly against a DLL without an import library, the
DLL export symbols might not contain stdcall decorations.

If we have an undefined symbol with decoration, and we happen to have
a matching undecorated symbol (which either is lazy and can be loaded,
or already defined), then alias it against that instead.

This matches what's done in reverse, when we have a def file
declaring to export a symbol without decoration, but we only have
a defined decorated symbol. In that case we do a fuzzy match
(SymbolTable::findMangle). This case is more straightforward; if we
have a decorated undefined symbol, just strip the decoration and look
for the corresponding undecorated symbol name.

Add warnings and options for either silencing the warning or disabling
the whole feature, corresponding to how ld.bfd does it.

(This feature works for any symbol decoration mismatch, not only when
linking against a DLL directly; ld.bfd also tolerates it anywhere,
and also fixes up mismatches in the other direction, like
SymbolTable::findMangle, for any symbol, not only exports. But in
practice, at least for lld, it would primarily end up used for linking
against DLLs.)

Martin Storsjö a9ff1ce1b9 [LLD] [COFF] Support linking directly against DLLs in MinGW mode
GNU ld.bfd supports linking directly against DLLs without using an
import library, and some projects have picked up on this habit.
(There's no one single unsurmountable issue with using import
libraries, but this is a regularly surfacing missing feature.)

As long as one is linking by name (instead of by ordinal), the DLL
export table contains most of the information needed. (One can
inspect what section a symbol points at, to see if it's a function
or data symbol. The practical implementation of this loops over all
sections for each symbol, but as long as they're not very many, that
should hopefully be tolerable performance wise.)

One exception where the information in the DLL isn't entirely enough
is on i386 with stdcall functions; depending on how they're done,
the exported function name can be a plain undecorated name, while
the import library would contain the full decorated symbol name. This
issue is addressed separately in a different patch.

This is implemented mimicing the structure of a regular import library,
with one InputFile corresponding to the static archive that just adds
lazy symbols, which then are fetched when they are needed. When such
a symbol is fetched, we synthesize a coff_import_header structure
in memory and create a regular ImportFile out of it.

The implementation could be even smaller by just creating ImportFiles
for every symbol available immediately, but that would have the
drawback of actually ending up importing all symbols unless running
with GC enabled (and mingw mode defaults to having it disabled for
historical reasons).

Martin Storsjö d07f43641f [LLD] [COFF] Fix handling of LTO comdats with nontrivial selection types after 728cc0075e
Commit 728cc0075e made comdat symbols
from LTO objects be treated as any regular comdat symbol. This works
great for symbols that actually are IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_ANY, but
if the symbols have a less trivial selection type that require comparing
either the section chunk size or contents, we can't check that before
actually doing the LTO compilation.

Therefore bring back one aspect of handling from before; that comdat
resolution with a leader from an LTO symbol is essentially skipped,
like it was before 728cc0075e.

Reid Kleckner 1e5b7e91aa [PDB] Split TypeServerSource and extend type index map lifetime
Extending the lifetime of these type index mappings does increase memory
usage (+2% in my case), but it decouples type merging from symbol
merging. This is a pre-requisite for two changes that I have in mind:
- parallel type merging: speeds up slow type merging
- defered symbol merging: avoid heap allocating (relocating) all symbols

This eliminates CVIndexMap and moves its data into TpiSource. The maps
are also split into a SmallVector and ArrayRef component, so that the
ipiMap can alias the tpiMap for /Z7 object files, and so that both maps
can simply alias the PDB type server maps for /Zi files.

Splitting TypeServerSource establishes that all input types to be merged
can be identified with two 32-bit indices:
- The index of the TpiSource object
- The type index of the record
This is useful, because this information can be stored in a single
64-bit atomic word to enable concurrent hashtable insertion.

One last change is that now all object files with debugChunks get a
TpiSource, even if they have no type info. This avoids some null checks
and special cases.

Martin Storsjö df8f3bf626 [LLD] [COFF] Check the aux section definition size for IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_SAME_SIZE
Binutils generated sections seem to be padded to a multiple of 16 bytes,
but the aux section definition contains the original, unpadded section
length.

The size check used for IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_SAME_SIZE previously
only checked the size of the section itself. When checking the
currently processed object file against the previously chosen
comdat section, we easily have access to the aux section definition
of the currently processed section, but we have to iterate over the
symbols of the previously selected object file to find the section
definition of the previously picked section. (We don't want to
inflate SectionChunk to carry more data, for something that is only
needed in corner cases.) Only do this when the mingw flag is set.

This fixes statically linking clang-built C++ object files against
libstdc++ built with GCC, if the object files contain e.g. typeinfo.

of duplicate functions is printed. (And even there, only for the

source locations, but duplicate symbols are reported at a stage when

Extend WindowsResourceParser to support using a ResourceSectionRef for

If there only is one resource object file and no .res resources,
don't parse and recreate the .rsrc section, but just link it in without
inspecting it. This allows users to produce any .rsrc section (outside
of what the parser supports), just like before. (I don't have a specific
need for this, but it reduces the risk of this new feature.)

Separate out the .rsrc section chunks in InputFiles.cpp, and only include
them in the list of section chunks to link if we've determined that there
only was one single resource object. (We need to keep other chunks from
those object files, as they can legitimately contain other sections as
well, in addition to .rsrc section chunks.)

Nico Weber 9c0716f116 ld.lld: Demangle symbols from archives in diagnostics

There are now to toString(Archive::Symbol), one doing MSVC demangling
in COFF and one doing Itanium demangling in ELF, so rename these two
to toCOFFString() and to toELFString() to not get a duplicate symbol.

Nothing ever passes a raw Archive::Symbol to CHECK(), so these not
being part of the normal toString() machinery seems ok.

There are two code paths in the ELF linker that emits this type of
diagnostic:

1. The "normal" one in InputFiles.cpp. This is covered by the tweaked test.

2. An additional one that's only used for libcalls if there's at least
   one bitcode in the link, and if the libcall symbol is lazy, and
   lazily loaded from an archive (i.e. not from a lazy .o file).
   (This code path was added in r339301.) Since all libcall names so far
   are C symbols and never mangled, the change there is not observable

If the user instead passes several .obj files containing such resources,
the correct thing to do would be to have custom code to merge the trees
in the resource sections instead of doing normal section merging -- but
link.exe rejects if multiple resource obj files are passed in with
LNK4078, so let lld-link do that too instead of silently writing broken
.rsrc sections in that case.

The only real way to run into this is if users manually convert .res
files to .obj files by running cvtres and then handing the resulting
.obj files to lld-link instead, which in practice likely never happens.

(lld-link is slightly stricter than link.exe now: If link.exe is passed
one .obj file created by cvtres, and a .res file, for some reason it
just emits a warning instead of an error and outputs strange looking
data. lld-link now errors out on mixed input like this.)

One way users could accidentally run into this is the following
scenario: If a .res file is passed to lib.exe, then lib.exe calls
cvtres.exe on the .res file before putting it in the output .lib.
(llvm-lib currently doesn't do this.)
link.exe's /wholearchive seems to only add obj files referenced from the
static library index, but lld-link current really adds all files in the
archive. So if lld-link /wholearchive is used with .lib files produced
by lib.exe and .res files were among the files handed to lib.exe, we
previously silently produced invalid output, but now we error out.

link.exe's /wholearchive semantics on the other hand mean that it
wouldn't load the resource object files from the .lib file at all.
Since this scenario is probably still an unlikely corner case,
the difference in behavior here seems fine -- and lld-link might have to
change to use link.exe's /wholearchive semantics in the future anyways.

Vaguely related to PR42180.

Fangrui Song e1cb2c0f40 [Object] Change ObjectFile::getSectionContents to return Expected<ArrayRef<uint8_t>>
Change
std::error_code getSectionContents(DataRefImpl, StringRef &) const;
to
Expected<ArrayRef<uint8_t>> getSectionContents(DataRefImpl) const;

Many object formats use ArrayRef<uint8_t> as the underlying type, which
is generally better than StringRef to represent binary data, so change
the type to decrease the number of type conversions.
