Previously, we added garbage-collected symbols to the symbol table
and filter them out when we were writing symbols to the file. In
this patch, garbage-collected symbols are filtered out from beginning.

Previously, if both A and B are ".ctors", both compCtors(A, B) and
compCtors(B, A) are true, which is a violation of the strict weak
ordering because such function is not antisymmetric.

Global constructors and destructors are guaranteed to be called
in the order as they appear in a translation unit. So we don't want
to mess up the order if they have the same priority.

This basically reverts commit r260073 because it is found that
augmentation strings don't always start with "zR". It is reported
as https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=26541.

This is the function equivalent of a copy relocation.
Since functions are expected to change sizes, we cannot use copy
relocations. In situations where one would be needed, what is done
instead is:
* Create a plt entry
* Output an undefined symbol whose addr is the plt entry.
The dynamic linker makes sure any shared library uses the plt entry as
the function address.

I found that the handling of 'L' character in an augmentation string is
wrong because 'L' means that the next byte is the length field. I could
have fixed that by just skipping the next byte, but I decided to take a
different approach.
Teaching the linker about all the types of CIE internal records just to
skip them is silly. And the code doing that is not actually executed now
(that's why the bug did not cause any issue.) It is because the 'R' field,
which we want to read, is always at beginning of the CIE. So I reduced
the code dramatically by assuming that that's always the case. I want to
see how it works in the wild. If it doesn't work, we can roll this back
(with a fix for 'L').

I removed "CIE/FIE size is too large" error because that was not
checking for correct error conditions. [UINT_MAX - 4, UINT_MAX) is
a correct range as a size of a CIE/FDE record. It's just that the
size cannot be larger than the section size.

The variable was marking various cases where a symbol must be included
in the dynamic symbol table. Being used by a dynamic relocation was only
one of them.
llvm-svn: 259889
The previous names contained "Local" and "Current", but what we
are handling is always local and current, so they were redundant.
TlsIndex comes from "tls_index" struct that Ulrich Drepper is using
in this document to describe this data structure in GOT.
llvm-svn: 259852
Another case where we currently have almost duplicated code is the
creation of dynamic relocations. First to decide if we need one, then to
decide what to write.
This patch fixes it by passing more information from the relocation scan
to the section writing code. This is the same idea used for r258723.
I actually think it should be possible to simplify this further by
reordering things a bit in the writer. For example, we should be able to
represent almost every position in the file with an OutputSeciton and
offset. When writing it out we then just need to add the offset to the
OutputSection VA.

-Bsymbolic-functions:
When creating a shared library, bind references to global
function symbols to the definition within the shared library, if any.
This patch also fixed behavior of already existent -Bsymbolic:
previously PLT entries were created even if -Bsymbolic was specified.

Previously, the methods to get symbol addresses were somewhat scattered
in many places. You can use getEntryAddr returns the address of the symbol,
but if you want to get the GOT address for the symbol, you needed to call
Out<ELFT>::Got->getEntryAddr(Sym). This change adds new functions, getVA,
getGotVA, getGotPltVA, and getPltVA to SymbolBody, so that you can use
SymbolBody as the central place to ask about symbols.

This avoids the need to have reserve and addString in sync.
We avoid hashing the global symbols again. This means that we don't
merge a global symbol that has the same name as some other string, but
that doesn't seem very common. The string table size is the same in
clang an scylladb with or without hashing global symbols again.
llvm-svn: 259136
This function is a predicate that a given relocation can be relaxed.
The previous name implied that it returns true if a given relocation
has already been optimized away.
llvm-svn: 259128
In many situations, we don't want to exit at the first error even in the
process model. For example, it is better to report all undefined symbols
rather than reporting the first one that the linker picked up randomly.
In order to handle such errors, we don't need to wrap everything with
ErrorOr (thanks for David Blaikie for pointing this out!) Instead, we
can set a flag to record the fact that we found an error and keep it
going until it reaches a reasonable checkpoint.
This idea should be applicable to other places. For example, we can
ignore broken relocations and check for errors after visiting all relocs.
In this patch, I rename error to fatal, and introduce another version of
error which doesn't call exit. That function instead sets HasError to true.
Once HasError becomes true, it stays true, so that we know that there
was an error if it is true.
I think introducing a non-noreturn error reporting function is by itself
a good idea, and it looks to me that this also provides a gradual path
towards lld-as-a-library (or at least embed-lld-to-your-program) without
sacrificing code readability with lots of ErrorOr's.
