Fixes MSVC CRT thread-local constructors support on hybrid ARM64X
targets.
`-arm64xsameaddress` is an undocumented option that ensures the
specified function has the same address in both native and EC views of
hybrid images. To achieve this, the linker emits additional thunks and
replaces the symbols
of those functions with the thunk symbol (the same thunk is used in both
views). The thunk code jumps to the native function (similar to range
extension thunks), but additional ARM64X relocations are emitted to
replace the target with the EC function in the EC view.
MSVC appears to generate thunks even for non-hybrid ARM64EC images. As a
side effect, the native symbol is pulled in. Since this is used in the
CRT for thread-local constructors, it results in the image containing
unnecessary native code. Because these thunks do not appear to be useful
in that context, we limit this behavior to actual hybrid targets. This
may change if compatibility requires it.
The tricky part is that thunks should be skipped if the symbol is not
live in either view, and symbol replacement must be reflected in weak
aliases. This requires thunk generation to happen before resolving weak
aliases but after the GC pass. To enable this, the `markLive` call was
moved earlier, and the final weak alias resolution was postponed until
afterward. This requires more code to be aware of weak aliases, which
previously could assume they were already resolved.
This change implements support for the /stub flag to align with MS
link.exe. This option is useful when a program needs to optimize the DOS
program that executes when the PE runs on DOS, avoiding the traditional
hardcoded DOS program in LLD.
Apologies for the large change, I looked for ways to break this up and
all of the ones I saw added real complexity. This change focuses on the
option's prefixed names and the array of prefixes. These are present in
every option and the dominant source of dynamic relocations for PIE or
PIC users of LLVM and Clang tooling. In some cases, 100s or 1000s of
them for the Clang driver which has a huge number of options.
This PR addresses this by building a string table and a prefixes table
that can be referenced with indices rather than pointers that require
dynamic relocations. This removes almost 7k dynmaic relocations from the
`clang` binary, roughly 8% of the remaining dynmaic relocations outside
of vtables. For busy-boxing use cases where many different option tables
are linked into the same binary, the savings add up a bit more.
The string table is a straightforward mechanism, but the prefixes
required some subtlety. They are encoded in a Pascal-string fashion with
a size followed by a sequence of offsets. This works relatively well for
the small realistic prefixes arrays in use.
Lots of code has to change in order to land this though: both all the
option library code has to be updated to use the string table and
prefixes table, and all the users of the options library have to be
updated to correctly instantiate the objects.
Some follow-up patches in the works to provide an abstraction for this
style of code, and to start using the same technique for some of the
other strings here now that the infrastructure is in place.
For COFF and ELF that are mostly free of global states, lld::errs() and
lld::outs() should not be used. This migration change allows us to
remove lld::errs, which uses the global errorHandler().
* Don't call raw_string_ostream::flush(), which is essentially a no-op.
* Strip calls to raw_string_ostream::str(), to avoid excess layer of indirection.
#78772 added similar support for .def file parser and import library
writer. This PR adds missing bits in LLD to propagate EXPORTAS name and
allow it in `/export` parser. This is syntax is used by MSVC for ARM64EC
`__declspec(dllexport)` handling.
This adds support for generating Chrome-tracing .json profile traces in
the LLD COFF driver.
Also add the necessary time scopes, so that the profile trace shows in
great detail which tasks are executed.
As an example, this is what we see when linking a Unreal Engine
executable:
This reverts commit 4e3b89483a6922d3f48670bb1c50a37f342918c6, with
fixes for places I'd missed updating in lld and lldb. I've also
renamed OptionVisibility::Default to "DefaultVis" to avoid ambiguity
since the undecorated name has to be available anywhere Options.inc is
included.
Original message follows:
This splits OptTable's "Flags" field into "Flags" and "Visibility",
updates the places where we instantiate Option tables, and adds
variants of the OptTable APIs that use Visibility mask instead of
Include/Exclude flags.
We need to do this to clean up a bunch of complexity in the clang
driver's option handling - there's a whole slew of flags like
CoreOption, NoDriverOption, and FlangOnlyOption there today to try to
handle all of the permutations of flags that the various drivers need,
but it really doesn't scale well, as can be seen by things like the
somewhat recently introduced CLDXCOption.
Instead, we'll provide an additive model for visibility that's
separate from the other flags. For things like "HelpHidden", which is
used as a "subtractive" modifier for option visibility, we leave that
in "Flags" and handle it as a special case.
Note that we don't actually update the users of the Include/Exclude
APIs here or change the flags that exist in clang at all - that will
come in a follow up that refactors clang's Options.td to use the
increased flexibility this change allows.

All command-line tools using `llvm::opt` create an enum of option IDs and a table of `OptTable::Info` object. Most of the tools use the same ID (`OPT_##ID`), kind (`Option::KIND##Class`), group ID (`OPT_##GROUP`) and alias ID (`OPT_##ALIAS`). This patch extracts that common code into canonical macros. This results in fewer changes when tweaking the `OPTION` macros emitted by the TableGen backend.

all the missing includes that were previously included transitively
through this header.
MSVC link.exe allows overriding exports on the cmd-line with exports seen in OBJ directives. The typical case is what is described in #62329.
Before this patch, trying to override an export with `/export` or `/def` would generate a duplicate warning. This patches tries to replicate the MSVC behavior. A second override on the cmd-line would still generate the warning.
There's still a case which we don't cover: MSVC link.exe is able to demangle an exported OBJ directive function, and match it with a unmangled export function in a .def file. In the meanwhile, one can use the mangled export in the .def to cover that case.
This fixes#62329
