1. raw_ostream supports ANSI colors so that you can write messages to
the termina with colors. Previously, in order to change and reset
color, you had to call `changeColor` and `resetColor` functions,
respectively.
So, if you print out "error: " in red, for example, you had to do
something like this:
OS.changeColor(raw_ostream::RED);
OS << "error: ";
OS.resetColor();
With this patch, you can write the same code as follows:
OS << raw_ostream::RED << "error: " << raw_ostream::RESET;
2. Add a boolean flag to raw_ostream so that you can disable colored
output. If you disable colors, changeColor, operator<<(Color),
resetColor and other color-related functions have no effect.
Most LLVM tools automatically prints out messages using colors, and
you can disable it by passing a flag such as `--disable-colors`.
This new flag makes it easy to write code that works that way.

This patch
1) adds -z separate-code and -z noseparate-code (default).
2) changes the condition that the last page of last PF_X PT_LOAD is
padded with trap instructions.
Current condition (after D33630): if there is no `SECTIONS` commands.
After this change: if -z separate-code is specified.
-z separate-code was introduced to ld.bfd in 2018, to place the text
segment in its own pages. There is no overlap in pages between an
executable segment and a non-executable segment:
1) RX cannot load initial contents from R or RW(or non-SHF_ALLOC).
2) R and RW(or non-SHF_ALLOC) cannot load initial contents from RX.
lld's current status:
- Between R and RX: in `Writer<ELFT>::fixSectionAlignments()`, the start of a
segment is always aligned to maxPageSize, so the initial contents loaded by R
and RX do not overlap. I plan to allow overlaps in D64906 if -z noseparate-code
is in effect.
- Between RX and RW(or non-SHF_ALLOC if RW doesn't exist):
we currently unconditionally pad the last page to commonPageSize
(defaults to 4096 on all targets we support).
This patch will make it effective only if -z separate-code is specified.
-z separate-code is a dubious feature that intends to reduce the number
of ROP gadgets (which is actually ineffective because attackers can find
plenty of gadgets in the text segment, no need to find gadgets in
non-code regions).
With the overlapping PT_LOAD technique D64906, -z noseparate-code
removes two more alignments at segment boundaries than -z separate-code.
This saves at most defaultCommonPageSize*2 bytes, which are significant
on targets with large defaultCommonPageSize (AArch64/MIPS/PPC: 65536).
Issues/feedback on alignment at segment boundaries to help understand
the implication:
* binutils PR24490 (the situation on ld.bfd is worse because they have
two R-- on both sides of R-E so more alignments.)
* In binutils, the 2018-02-27 commit "ld: Add --enable-separate-code" made -z separate-code the default on Linux.
d969dea983
In musl-cross-make, binutils is configured with --disable-separate-code
to address size regressions caused by -z separate-code. (lld actually has the same
issue, which I plan to fix in a future patch. The ld.bfd x86 status is
worse because they default to max-page-size=0x200000).
* https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=237676 people want
smaller code size. This patch will remove one alignment boundary.
* Stef O'Rear: I'm opposed to any kind of page alignment at the
text/rodata line (having a partial page of text aliased as rodata and
vice versa has no demonstrable harm, and I actually care about small
systems).
So, make -z noseparate-code the default.

This patch is mechanically generated by clang-llvm-rename tool that I wrote
using Clang Refactoring Engine just for creating this patch. You can see the
source code of the tool at https://reviews.llvm.org/D64123. There's no manual
post-processing; you can generate the same patch by re-running the tool against
lld's code base.
Here is the main discussion thread to change the LLVM coding style:
https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-February/130083.html
In the discussion thread, I proposed we use lld as a testbed for variable
naming scheme change, and this patch does that.
I chose to rename variables so that they are in camelCase, just because that
is a minimal change to make variables to start with a lowercase letter.
Note to downstream patch maintainers: if you are maintaining a downstream lld
repo, just rebasing ahead of this commit would cause massive merge conflicts
because this patch essentially changes every line in the lld subdirectory. But
there's a remedy.
clang-llvm-rename tool is a batch tool, so you can rename variables in your
downstream repo with the tool. Given that, here is how to rebase your repo to
a commit after the mass renaming:
1. rebase to the commit just before the mass variable renaming,
2. apply the tool to your downstream repo to mass-rename variables locally, and
3. rebase again to the head.
Most changes made by the tool should be identical for a downstream repo and
for the head, so at the step 3, almost all changes should be merged and
disappear. I'd expect that there would be some lines that you need to merge by
hand, but that shouldn't be too many.

'utf-16' in '-finput-charset=utf-16'` before, and several other clang-cl
flags produce much less confusing output as well.
Fixes PR29106.
Since an arg and its alias can have different arg types (joined vs not)
and different values (because of AliasArgs<>), I chose to give the Alias
its own Arg object. For convenience, I just store the alias directly in
the unaliased arg – there aren't many arg objects at runtime, so that
seems ok.
Finally, I changed Arg::getAsString() to use the alias's representation
if it's present – that function was already documented as being the
suitable function for diagnostics, and most callers already used it for
diagnostics.
Implementation-wise, Arg::accept() previously used to parse things as
the unaliased option. The core of that switch is now extracted into a
new function acceptInternal() which parses as the _aliased_ option, and
the previously-intermingled unaliasing is now done as an explicit step
afterwards.
(This also changes one place in lld that didn't use getAsString() for
diagnostics, so that that one place now also prints the flag as the user
wrote it, not as it looks after it went through unaliasing.)

This fixes an 8-year-old regression. r105763 made it so that aliases
always refer to the unaliased option – but it missed the "joined" branch
of JoinedOrSeparate flags. (r162231 then made the Args classes
non-virtual, and r169344 moved them from clang to llvm.)
Back then, there was no JoinedOrSeparate flag that was an alias, so it
wasn't observable. Now /U in CLCompatOptions is a JoinedOrSeparate alias
in clang, and warn_slash_u_filename incorrectly used the aliased arg id
(using the unaliased one isn't really a regression since that warning
checks if the undefined macro contains slash or backslash and only then
emits the warning – and no valid use will pass "-Ufoo/bar" or similar).
Also, lld has many JoinedOrSeparate aliases, and due to this bug it had
to explicitly call `getUnaliasedOption()` in a bunch of places, even
though that shouldn't be necessary by design. After this fix in Option,
these calls really don't have an effect any more, so remove them.
No intended behavior change.
(I accidentally fixed this bug while working on PR29106 but then
wondered why the warn_slash_u_filename broke. When I figured it out, I
thought it would make sense to land this in a separate commit.)

This patch adds new command line option `--undefined-glob` to lld.
That option is a variant of `--undefined` but accepts wildcard
patterns so that all symbols that match with a given pattern are
handled as if they were given by `-u`.
`-u foo` is to force resolve symbol foo if foo is not a defined symbol
and there's a static archive that contains a definition of symbol foo.
Now, you can specify a wildcard pattern as an argument for `--undefined-glob`.
So, if you want to include all JNI symbols (which start with "Java_"), you
can do that by passing `--undefined-glob "Java_*"` to the linker, for example.

Branch Target Identification (BTI) and Pointer Authentication (PAC) are
architecture features introduced in v8.5a and 8.3a respectively. The new
instructions have been added in the hint space so that binaries take
advantage of support where it exists yet still run on older hardware. The
impact of each feature is:
BTI: For executable pages that have been guarded, all indirect branches
must have a destination that is a BTI instruction of the appropriate type.
For the static linker, this means that PLT entries must have a "BTI c" as
the first instruction in the sequence. BTI is an all or nothing
property for a link unit, any indirect branch not landing on a valid
destination will cause a Branch Target Exception.
PAC: The dynamic loader encodes with PACIA the address of the destination
that the PLT entry will load from the .plt.got, placing the result in a
subset of the top-bits that are not valid virtual addresses. The PLT entry
may authenticate these top-bits using the AUTIA instruction before
branching to the destination. Use of PAC in PLT sequences is a contract
between the dynamic loader and the static linker, it is independent of
whether the relocatable objects use PAC.
BTI and PAC are independent features that can be combined. So we can have
several combinations of PLT:
- Standard with no BTI or PAC
- BTI PLT with "BTI c" as first instruction.
- PAC PLT with "AUTIA1716" before the indirect branch to X17.
- BTIPAC PLT with "BTI c" as first instruction and "AUTIA1716" before the
first indirect branch to X17.
The use of BTI and PAC in relocatable object files are encoded by feature
bits in the .note.gnu.property section in a similar way to Intel CET. There
is one AArch64 specific program property GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_AND
and two target feature bits defined:
- GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_BTI
-- All executable sections are compatible with BTI.
- GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_PAC
-- All executable sections have return address signing enabled.
Due to the properties of FEATURE_1_AND the static linker can tell when all
input relocatable objects have the BTI and PAC feature bits set. The static
linker uses this to enable the appropriate PLT sequence.
Neither -> standard PLT
GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_BTI -> BTI PLT
GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_PAC -> PAC PLT
Both properties -> BTIPAC PLT
In addition to the .note.gnu.properties there are two new command line
options:
--force-bti : Act as if all relocatable inputs had
GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_BTI and warn for every relocatable object
that does not.
--pac-plt : Act as if all relocatable inputs had
GNU_PROPERTY_AARCH64_FEATURE_1_PAC. As PAC is a contract between the loader
and static linker no warning is given if it is not present in an input.
Two processor specific dynamic tags are used to communicate that a non
standard PLT sequence is being used.

This patch implements a limited form of autolinking primarily designed to allow
either the --dependent-library compiler option, or "comment lib" pragmas (
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/preprocessor/comment-c-cpp?view=vs-2017) in
C/C++ e.g. #pragma comment(lib, "foo"), to cause an ELF linker to automatically
add the specified library to the link when processing the input file generated
by the compiler.
Currently this extension is unique to LLVM and LLD. However, care has been taken
to design this feature so that it could be supported by other ELF linkers.
The design goals were to provide:
- A simple linking model for developers to reason about.
- The ability to to override autolinking from the linker command line.
- Source code compatibility, where possible, with "comment lib" pragmas in other
environments (MSVC in particular).
Dependent library support is implemented differently for ELF platforms than on
the other platforms. Primarily this difference is that on ELF we pass the
dependent library specifiers directly to the linker without manipulating them.
This is in contrast to other platforms where they are mapped to a specific
linker option by the compiler. This difference is a result of the greater
variety of ELF linkers and the fact that ELF linkers tend to handle libraries in
a more complicated fashion than on other platforms. This forces us to defer
handling the specifiers to the linker.
In order to achieve a level of source code compatibility with other platforms
we have restricted this feature to work with libraries that meet the following
"reasonable" requirements:
1. There are no competing defined symbols in a given set of libraries, or
if they exist, the program owner doesn't care which is linked to their
program.
2. There may be circular dependencies between libraries.
The binary representation is a mergeable string section (SHF_MERGE,
SHF_STRINGS), called .deplibs, with custom type SHT_LLVM_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES
(0x6fff4c04). The compiler forms this section by concatenating the arguments of
the "comment lib" pragmas and --dependent-library options in the order they are
encountered. Partial (-r, -Ur) links are handled by concatenating .deplibs
sections with the normal mergeable string section rules. As an example, #pragma
comment(lib, "foo") would result in:
.section ".deplibs","MS",@llvm_dependent_libraries,1
.asciz "foo"
For LTO, equivalent information to the contents of a the .deplibs section can be
retrieved by the LLD for bitcode input files.
LLD processes the dependent library specifiers in the following way:
1. Dependent libraries which are found from the specifiers in .deplibs sections
of relocatable object files are added when the linker decides to include that
file (which could itself be in a library) in the link. Dependent libraries
behave as if they were appended to the command line after all other options. As
a consequence the set of dependent libraries are searched last to resolve
symbols.
2. It is an error if a file cannot be found for a given specifier.
3. Any command line options in effect at the end of the command line parsing apply
to the dependent libraries, e.g. --whole-archive.
4. The linker tries to add a library or relocatable object file from each of the
strings in a .deplibs section by; first, handling the string as if it was
specified on the command line; second, by looking for the string in each of the
library search paths in turn; third, by looking for a lib<string>.a or
lib<string>.so (depending on the current mode of the linker) in each of the
library search paths.
5. A new command line option --no-dependent-libraries tells LLD to ignore the
dependent libraries.
Rationale for the above points:
1. Adding the dependent libraries last makes the process simple to understand
from a developers perspective. All linkers are able to implement this scheme.
2. Error-ing for libraries that are not found seems like better behavior than
failing the link during symbol resolution.
3. It seems useful for the user to be able to apply command line options which
will affect all of the dependent libraries. There is a potential problem of
surprise for developers, who might not realize that these options would apply
to these "invisible" input files; however, despite the potential for surprise,
this is easy for developers to reason about and gives developers the control
that they may require.
4. This algorithm takes into account all of the different ways that ELF linkers
find input files. The different search methods are tried by the linker in most
obvious to least obvious order.
5. I considered adding finer grained control over which dependent libraries were
ignored (e.g. MSVC has /nodefaultlib:<library>); however, I concluded that this
is not necessary: if finer control is required developers can fall back to using
the command line directly.

This is the last patch of the series of patches to make it possible to
resolve symbols without asking SymbolTable to do so.
The main point of this patch is the introduction of
`elf::resolveSymbol(Symbol *Old, Symbol *New)`. That function resolves
or merges given symbols by examining symbol types and call
replaceSymbol (which memcpy's New to Old) if necessary.
With the new function, we have now separated symbol resolution from
symbol lookup. If you already have a Symbol pointer, you can directly
resolve the symbol without asking SymbolTable to do that.
Now that the nice abstraction become available, I can start working on
performance improvement of the linker. As a starter, I'm thinking of
making --{start,end}-lib faster.
--{start,end}-lib is currently unnecessarily slow because it looks up
the symbol table twice for each symbol.
- The first hash table lookup/insertion occurs when we instantiate a
LazyObject file to insert LazyObject symbols.
- The second hash table lookup/insertion occurs when we create an
ObjFile from LazyObject file. That overwrites LazyObject symbols
with Defined symbols.
I think it is not too hard to see how we can now eliminate the second
hash table lookup. We can keep LazyObject symbols in Step 1, and then
call elf::resolveSymbol() to do Step 2.

SymbolTable's add-family functions have lots of parameters because
when they have to create a new symbol, they forward given arguments
to Symbol's constructors. Therefore, the functions take at least as
many arguments as their corresponding constructors.
This patch simplifies the add-family functions. Now, the functions
take a symbol instead of arguments to construct a symbol. If there's
no existing symbol, a given symbol is memcpy'ed to the symbol table.
Otherwise, the functions attempt to merge the existing and a given
new symbol.
I also eliminated `CanOmitFromDynSym` parameter, so that the functions
take really one argument.
Symbol classes are trivially constructible, so looks like constructing
them to pass to add-family functions is as cheap as passing a lot of
arguments to the functions. A quick benchmark showed that this patch
seems performance-neutral.

Patch by Mark Johnston!
Summary:
When the option is configured, ifunc calls do not go through the PLT;
rather, they appear as regular function calls with relocations
referencing the ifunc symbol, and the resolver is invoked when
applying the relocation. This is intended for use in freestanding
environments where text relocations are permissible and is incompatible
with the -z text option. The option is motivated by ifunc usage in the
FreeBSD kernel, where ifuncs are used to elide CPU feature flag bit
checks in hot paths. Instead of replacing the cost of a branch with that
of an indirect function call, the -z ifunc-noplt option is used to ensure
that ifunc calls carry no hidden overhead relative to normal function
calls.
Test Plan:
I added a couple of regression tests and tested the FreeBSD kernel
build using the latest lld sources.
To demonstrate the effects of the change, I used a micro-benchmark
which results in frequent invocations of a FreeBSD kernel ifunc. The
benchmark was run with and without IBRS enabled, and with and without
-zifunc-noplt configured. The observed speedup is small and consistent,
and is significantly larger with IBRS enabled:

The -n (--nmagic) disables page alignment, and acts as a -Bstatic
The -N (--omagic) does what -n does but also marks the executable segment as
writeable. As page alignment is disabled headers are not allocated unless
explicit in the linker script.
To disable page alignment in LLD we choose to set the page sizes to 1 so
that any alignment based on the page size does nothing. To set the
Target->PageSize to 1 we implement -z common-page-size, which has the side
effect of allowing the user to set the value as well.
Setting the page alignments to 1 does mean that any use of

return 1, unlike in ld.bfd. However given that -n and -N disable paging
these probably shouldn't be used in a linker script where -n or -N is in

Patch by Robert O'Callahan.
Rust projects tend to link in all object files from all dependent
libraries and rely on --gc-sections to strip unused code and data.
Unfortunately --gc-sections doesn't currently strip any debuginfo
associated with GC'ed sections, so lld links in the full debuginfo from
all dependencies even if almost all that code has been discarded. See
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/56068 for some details.
Properly stripping debuginfo for discarded sections would be difficult,
but a simple approach that helps significantly is to mark debuginfo
sections as live only if their associated object file has at least one
live code/data section. This patch does that. In a (contrived but not

even for an archive file containing non-bitcode files, which is not
expected. This patch limits that workaround to one that contains only
bitcode files.

This follows the ld.bfd/gold behavior.
The error check is useful as it captures a common type of ld.so undefined symbol errors as link-time errors:
// a.cc => a.so (not linked with -z defs)
void f(); // f is undefined
void g() { f(); }
// b.cc => executable with a DT_NEEDED entry on a.so
void g();
int main() { g(); }
// ld.so errors when g() is executed (lazy binding) or when the program is started (-z now)
// symbol lookup error: ... undefined symbol: f

Summary:
In ld.bfd/gold, --no-allow-shlib-undefined is the default when linking
an executable. This patch implements a check to error on undefined
symbols in a shared object, if all of its DT_NEEDED entries are seen.
Our approach resembles the one used in gold, achieves a good balance to
be useful but not too smart (ld.bfd traces all DSOs and emulates the
behavior of a dynamic linker to catch more cases).
The error is issued based on the symbol table, different from undefined
reference errors issued for relocations. It is most effective when there
are DSOs that were not linked with -z defs (e.g. when static sanitizers
runtime is used).
gold has a comment that some system libraries on GNU/Linux may have
spurious undefined references and thus system libraries should be
excluded (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6811). The
story may have changed now but we make --allow-shlib-undefined the
default for now. Its interaction with -shared can be discussed in the
future.

Before, superfluous warnings were emitted for the following two cases:
1) When from symbol was in a discarded section.
The profile should be thought of as affiliated to the section.
It makes sense to ignore the profile if the section is discarded.
2) When to symbol was in a shared object.
The object file containing the profile may not know about the to
symbol, which can reside in another object file (useful profile) or a
shared object (not useful as symbols in the shared object are fixed
and unorderable). It makes sense to ignore the profile from the object
file.
Note, the warning when to symbol was undefined was suppressed in
D53044, which is still useful for --symbol-ordering-file=
This patch silences the warnings. The check is actually more relaxed (no
warnings if either From or To is not Defined) for simplicity and I don't
see a compelling reason to warn on more cases.

Previously, we uncompress all compressed sections before doing anything.
That works, and that is conceptually simple, but that could results in
a waste of CPU time and memory if uncompressed sections are then
discarded or just copied to the output buffer.
In particular, if .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are compressed and if no
-gdb-index option is given, we wasted CPU and memory because we
uncompress them into newly allocated bufers and then memcpy the buffers
to the output buffer. That temporary buffer was redundant.
This patch changes how to uncompress sections. Now, compressed sections
are uncompressed lazily. To do that, `Data` member of `InputSectionBase`
is now hidden from outside, and `data()` accessor automatically expands
an compressed buffer if necessary.
If no one calls `data()`, then `writeTo()` directly uncompresses
compressed data into the output buffer. That eliminates the redundant
memory allocation and redundant memcpy.
This patch significantly reduces memory consumption (20 GiB max RSS to
15 Gib) for an executable whose .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are in total
5 GiB in an uncompressed form.

Summary:
This patch adds a new flag, --warn-ifunc-textrel, to work around a glibc bug. When a code with ifunc symbols is used to produce an object file with text relocations, lld always succeeds. However, if that object file is linked using an old version of glibc, the resultant binary just crashes with segmentation fault when it is run (The bug is going to be corrected as of glibc 2.19).
Since there is no way to tell beforehand what library the object file will be linked against in the future, there does not seem to be a fool-proof way for lld to give an error only in cases where the binary will crash. So, with this change (dated 2018-09-25), lld starts to give a warning, contingent on a new command line flag that does not have a gnu counter part. The default value for --warn-ifunc-textrel is false, so lld behaviour will not change unless the user explicitly asks lld to give a warning. Users that link with a glibc library with version 2.19 or newer, or does not use ifunc symbols, or does not generate object files with text relocations do not need to take any action. Other users may consider to start passing warn-ifunc-textrel to lld to get early warnings.

We have an issue with -wrap that the option doesn't work well when
renamed symbols get PLT entries. I'll explain what is the issue and
how this patch solves it.
For one -wrap option, we have three symbols: foo, wrap_foo and real_foo.
Currently, we use memcpy to overwrite wrapped symbols so that they get
the same contents. This works in most cases but doesn't when the relocation
processor sets some flags in the symbol. memcpy'ed symbols are just
aliases, so they always have to have the same contents, but the
relocation processor breaks that assumption.
r336609 is an attempt to fix the issue by memcpy'ing again after
processing relocations, so that symbols that are out of sync get the
same contents again. That works in most cases as well, but it breaks
ASan build in a mysterious way.
We could probably fix the issue by choosing symbol attributes that need
to be copied after they are updated. But it feels too complicated to me.
So, in this patch, I fixed it once and for all. With this patch, we no
longer memcpy symbols. All references to renamed symbols point to new
symbols after wrapSymbols() is done.

Patch by PkmX.
This patch makes lld recognize RISC-V target and implements basic
relocation for RV32/RV64 (and RVC). This should be necessary for static
linking ELF applications.
The ABI documentation for RISC-V can be found at:
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-elf-psabi-doc/blob/master/riscv-elf.md.
Note that the documentation is far from complete so we had to figure out
some details from bfd.
The patch should be pretty straightforward. Some highlights:
- A new relocation Expr R_RISCV_PC_INDIRECT is added. This is needed as
the low part of a PC-relative relocation is linked to the corresponding
high part (auipc), see:
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-elf-psabi-doc/blob/master/riscv-elf.md#pc-relative-symbol-addresses
- LLVM's MC support for RISC-V is very incomplete (we are working on
this), so tests are given in objectyaml format with the original
assembly included in the comments. Once we have complete support for
RISC-V in MC, we can switch to llvm-as/llvm-objdump.
- We don't support linker relaxation for now as it requires greater
changes to lld that is beyond the scope of this patch. Once this is
accepted we can start to work on adding relaxation to lld.

Adding all libcall symbols to the link can have undesired consequences.
For example, the libgcc implementation of __sync_val_compare_and_swap_8
on 32-bit ARM pulls in an .init_array entry that aborts the program if
the Linux kernel does not support 64-bit atomics, which would prevent
the program from running even if it does not use 64-bit atomics.
This change makes it so that we only add libcall symbols to the
link before LTO if we have to, i.e. if the symbol's definition is in
bitcode. Any other required libcall symbols will be added to the link
after LTO when we add the LTO object file to the link.

GNU ld's manual says that TARGET(foo) is basically an alias for
`--format foo` where foo is a BFD target name such as elf64-x86-64.
Unlike GNU linkers, lld doesn't allow arbitrary BFD target name for
--format. We accept only "default", "elf" or "binary". This makes
situation a bit tricky because we can't simply make TARGET an alias for
--target.
A quick code search revealed that the usage number of TARGET is very
small, and the only meaningful usage is to switch to the binary mode.
Thus, in this patch, we handle only TARGET(elf.*) and TARGET(binary).
