It was discussed to make all messages be
lowercase to be consistent with clang.
(also reverts the r263128 which fixed
build bot fail after r263125)
Original commit message:
[ELF] - Consistent spelling for error/warning messages
Previously error and warnings were not consistent in lld.
Some of them started from lowercase letter, others from
uppercase. Also there was one or two which had a dot at the end.
This patch changes all messages to start from uppercase letter if
they were not before.

It is really odd that Mips differentiates symbols that are born local
and those that become local because of hidden visibility. I don't know
enough mips to known if this is a bug or not.

This patch adds --thread option and use parallel_for_each to write
sections in regular OutputSections.
This is the first patch to use more than one threads.
Note that --thread is off by default because it is experimental.
At this moment I still want to focus on single thread performance
because multi-threading is not a magic wand to fix performance
problems after all. It is generally very hard to make a slow program
faster by threads. Therefore, I want to make the linker as efficient
as possible first and then look for opportunity to make it even faster
using more than one core.
Here are some numbers to link programs with and without --threads
and using GNU gold. Numbers are in seconds.
Clang
w/o --threads 0.697
w --threads 0.528
gold 1.643
Scylla
w/o --threads 5.032
w --threads 4.935
gold 6.791
GNU gold
w/o --threads 0.550
w --threads 0.551
gold 0.737
I limited the number of cores these processes can use to 4 using
perf command, so although my machine has 20 physical cores, the
performance gain I observed should be reproducible with a machine
which is not as beefy as mine.

Summary:
More generally, appending linkage is a special case that we don't want

We can argue about a maximum alignment of a group of symbols,
but for each symbol, there is only one alignment.
So it is a bit weird that each symbol has a "maximum alignment".

R_X86_64_DTPOFF64 was not handled properly.
Next sample app was impossible to link before this patch:
~/pg/release/bin/clang -target x86_64-pc-linux testthread.cpp -c -g
~/pg/d+a/bin/ld.lld testthread.o
"Unknown TLS optimization" (value was 17)
__thread int x = 0;
void _start() {
}
It works fine now.

This implements another part of -save-temps.
After this, the only remaining part is dumping the optimized bitcode. But
currently LLD's LTO doesn't have a non-intrusive place to put this.
Eventually we probably will and it will make sense to add it then.

Summary:
This is useful for debugging issues with LTO.
The option follows the analogous option in ld64 and the gold plugin (per
Rafael's suggestion).
For starters, this only dumps the combined bitcode file.
In a future patch I will add dumping for the .o file.
The naming of the output follows ld64's convention which is slightly more
consistent IMO (consistent `.lto.<extension>` for all the files).

We currently do things like parse the module twice to keep the
implementation minimal. I think it makes sense to add start with eager
loading for similar reasons.

Do we need to do something more with @llvm.global_ctors in

It was a badly specified hack for when a tls relocation should be
propagated to the dynamic relocation table.
This replaces it with a not as bad hack of saying that a local dynamic
tls relocation is never preempted.
I will try to remove even that second hack in the next patch.

It was causing errors like
/lib/libc.so.6 is incompatible with elf_x86_64
when linking on Fedora.
Every system has different default paths. It seems better to just trust
the driver to pass the correct -L options.
This reverts commit 262910.

The variables corresponding to command line options are named mechanically.
Because the option for the variable is -noinhibit-exec and not -no-inhibit-exec,
it should be name this way.

This has a few advantages:
* If lld selected a non bitcode symbol, be the bitcode GV is not merged
* lib/Linker is not redoing symbol resolution.
llvm-svn: 262773
The rules for when we can relax tls relocations are target independent.
The only things that are target dependent are the relocation values.

SymbolBody constructor and friends take isFunc and isTLS boolean arguments.
ELF symbols have already a type so than be easily passed as argument.
If we want to support another type, this scheme is not good enough, that is,
the current code logic would require passing another `bool isObject` around.
Up to two argument, this stretching exercise was a little bit goofy but
still acceptable, but with more types to support, is just too much, IMHO.
Change the code so that the type is passed instead.

The patch fixes two related problems:
- If CIE augmentation string has 'L' token the CIE contains a byte
defines LSDA encoding. We should skip this byte in `getFdeEncoding`
routine. Before this fix we do not skip it and if the next token
is 'R' treat this byte as FDE encoding.
- FDE encoding format has separate flags e.g. DW_EH_PE_pcrel for
definition of relative pointers. We should add .eh_frame address to
the PC value iif the DW_EH_PE_pcrel is specified.
http://www.airs.com/blog/archives/460
There is one more not fixed problem in this code. If PC value is encoded
using signed relative format e.g. DW_EH_PE_sdata4 | DW_EH_PE_pcrel we
should sign extend result of read32 to perform calculation correctly.
I am going to fix that in a separate patch.

UniversalDriver was used as a dispatcher to each platform-specific driver.
It had its own Options.td file. It was not just too much to parse only a
few options (we only want to parse -core, -flavor or argv[0]),
but also interpreted arguments too early. For example, if you invoke lld as
"lld -flavor gnu ... -help", then you'd get the UniversalDriver's help
message instead of GnuDriver's. This patch eliminates the use of Options
from the dispatcher.
