This makes adjustExpr a bit simpler too IMHO.
It seems that some of the complication around relocation processing
is that we are trying to create copy relocations too early. It seems
we could handle a few simple cases first and continue.

Previously we failed to resolve them when produced executables:
"relocation R_X86_64_32 cannot be used against shared object; recompile with -fPIC"

And for -shared case we still should produce the relocation.

A more efficient PLT sequence can be used when the distance between the
.plt and the end of the .plt.got is less than 128 Megabytes, which is
frequently true. We fall back to the old sequence when the offset is larger
than 128 Megabytes. This gives us an alternative to forcing the longer
entries with --long-plt as we gracefully fall back to it as needed.

We add dynamic section entries both in the ctor of the class and

I noticed that the continue this patch deletes was not tested. Trying
to add a test I realized that we never put a VER_NDX_LOCAL symbol in

llvm-svn: 320817
The ARM.exidx section contains a table of 8-byte entries with the first
word of each entry an offset to the function it describes and the second
word instructions for unwinding if an exception is thrown from that
function. The SHF_LINK_ORDER processing will order the table in ascending
order of the functions described by the exception table entries. As the
address range of an exception table entry is terminated by the next table
entry, it is possible to merge consecutive table entries that have
identical unwind instructions.
For this implementation we define a table entry to be identical if:
- Both entries are the special EXIDX_CANTUNWIND.
- Both entries have the same inline unwind instructions.
We do not attempt to establish if table entries that are references to
.ARM.extab sections are identical.
This implementation works at a granularity of a single .ARM.exidx
InputSection. If all entries in the InputSection are identical to the
previous table entry we can remove the InputSection. A more sophisticated
but more complex implementation would rewrite InputSection contents so that
duplicates within a .ARM.exidx InputSection can be merged.

This patch provides the mechanism to fix instances of the instruction
sequence that may trigger the cortex-a53 843419 erratum. The fix is
provided by an alternative instruction sequence to remove one of the
erratum conditions. To reach this alternative instruction sequence we
replace the original instruction with a branch to the alternative
sequence. The alternative sequence is responsible for branching back to
the original.
As there is only erratum to fix the implementation is specific to
AArch64 and the specific erratum conditions. It should be generalizable
to other targets and erratum if needed.

It is currently in InputSectionBase. Only InputSections are used in
ICF, so Repl should be move to InputSection to clear the class
hierarchy or, like this patch does, to SectionBase for convenience.
The convenience of having it on the base class is that we can just
access the replacement without having to first check if it is an
InputSection. It is a bit less code and a bit faster as some of this
code is very hot.
I got up to 1.77% improvement in clang-gdb-index and no regressions
according to lnt.
llvm-svn: 320654
Having a SectionBase method check Repl is inconsistent with how we
handle other section information.
For example, if a section is replaced, Sec->Live is false and it is
natural for Sec->getOutputSection() to be null.
It is the symbol that is moved to the replacement section.

By moving this step before thunk creation and other processing that depends

Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D40964
llvm-svn: 320477
The size of an OutputSection is calculated early, to aid handling of compressed
debug sections. However, subsequent to this point, unused synthetic sections are
removed. In the event that an OutputSection, from which such an InputSection is
removed, is still required (e.g. because it has a symbol assignment), and no longer
has any InputSections, dot assignments, or BYTE()-family directives, the size
member is never updated when processing the commands. If the removed InputSection
had a non-zero size (such as a .got.plt section), the section ends up with the
wrong size in the output.
The fix is to reset the OutputSection size prior to processing the linker script
commands relating to that OutputSection. This ensures that the size is correct even
in the above situation.
Additionally, to reduce the risk of developers misusing OutputSection Size and
InputSection OutSecOff, they are set to simply the number of InputSections in an
OutputSection, and the corresponding index respectively. We cannot completely
stop using them, due to SHF_LINK_ORDER sections requiring them.
Compressed debug sections also require the full size. This is now calculated in
maybeCompress for these kinds of sections.

When an output section has no byte commands and has no input sections then it
would be ideal if the type of the section is SHT_NOBITS so that the file can

show how the memsize of the executable segment was changed.

This fixes pr35570.
We were creating these symbols after parsing version scripts, so they
could not be versioned.
We cannot move the version script parsing later because we need it for
lto.
One option is to move both addReservedSymbols and
createSyntheticSections earlier. The disadvantage is that some
sections created by createSyntheticSections replace other input
sections. For example, gdb index replaces .debug_gnu_pubnames, so it
wants to run after gc sections so that it can set S->Live to false.
What this patch does instead is to move just the ElfHeader creation
early.

PR35478 https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35478 points out a flaw
in the implementation of r318924 from D40364. The implementation
depends on the Size field being set or the SyntheticSection::empty()
being accurate. These functions are not reliable as some linker script
commands that have yet to be processed may affect the results, causing
some non-zero size sections to be reported as zero size.
I think the first step is to revert r318924 and come up with a better
solution for the underlying problem rather than trying to layer more
heuristics onto the zero sized output section.
Chances are I'll be out of office by the time anyone sees this so feel
free to commit the revert if you agree with me.
Fixes PR35478
Current thoughts on the underlying problem:
Revisiting the motivation for adding the zero size check in the first
place; it was to prevent 0 sized SyntheticSections that a user does
not have full control over from needlessly breaking the PT_GNU_RELRO,
rather than trying to accommodate arbitrarily complex linker
scripts. Looking at the code, it looks like
removeUnusedSyntheticSections() should remove zero sized synthetic
sections. It does, but it doesn't set the Parent to nullptr, this has
the side effect that Sec == InX::BssRelRo->getParent() will make the
parent OutputSection of InX::BssRelRo RelRo even if there is no
InX::BssRelRo.
I tried a quick experiment with setting the Parent to nullptr and this
flushed out a few interesting test failures, it feels like playing
Jenga with every change:
In the isRelroSection() we have to consider the case where there
is no .plt and .plt.got but there is a ifunc plt with accompanying
(ifunc .got or .plt.got)
The PPC64 has PltHeaderSize == 0. Unfortunately HeaderSize == 0 is
used to choose between the ifunc plt or normal plt. We seem to get
away with this at the moment, but tests start to fail when Parent
is set to nullptr for the .got.plt.
The InX::BssRelRo and InX::Bss never get their sizes set and they
are always removed by removeUnusedSyntheticSections(), their
purpose seems to be as some kind of proxy for add .bss or
.bss.relro InputSections into their parent OutputSections, they
therefore don't behave like other SyntheticSections anyway.
My thinking is that some work is needed to make sure that the Sec ==
SyntheticSection->getParent() does a bit more checking before
returning true, particularly for InX::BssRelRo as that has special
behaviour. I'll hope to post something for review as soon as possible.

Common symbols are now represented with a DefinedRegular that points
to a BssSection, even during symbol resolution.

I don't remember why I made shared symbols one type of defined symbols.
Shared symbols aren't undefined, so it could be considered defined, but
categorizing three symbols as:
- defined
- really defined
- shared
- undefined
is not as intuitive as
- defined
- shared
- undefined
to me. So, in this patch, I made a change to stop handling shared
symbols as defined symbols.
Surprisingly, I didn't have to update any tests for this change.

That class is used only by LinkerScript.cpp, so we should move it to
that file. Also, it no longer has to be a "factory" class. It can just
be a non-member function.

r317396 changed the way how we handle the -defsym option. The option is
now handled using the infrastructure for the linker script.
We used to handle both -defsym and -wrap using the same set of functions
in the symbol table. Now, we don't need to do that.
This patch rewrites the functions so that they become more straightforward.
The new functions directly handle -wrap rather than abstract it.

Stop using SectionKey for creating output sections.
Initially SectionKey was designed because we merged section with
use of Flags and Alignment fields. Currently LLD merges them by name only,
except the case when -relocatable output is produced. In that case
we still merge sections only with the same flags and alignment.
There is probably no issue at all to stop using Flags and Alignment for -r and
just disable the merging in that case.
After doing that change we can get rid of using SectionKey. That is not only
simplifies the code, but also gives some perfomance boost.
I tried to link chrome and mozilla, results are next:
* chrome link time goes from 1,666750355s to 1,551585364s, that is about 7%.
* mozilla time changes from 3,210261947 to 3,153782940, or about 2%.

Currently LLD tries to use information about functions and variables location
taking it from debug sections. When --strip-* is given we discard such sections
and that breaks error reporting.
Patch stops discarding such sections and just removes them from InputSections list.
