The libz compression library on SystemZ by default makes use of the
platform's hardware-accelerated compression facility. This is much
faster than the regular software implementation, but often results in
slightly different outputs. This causes failures with the
compressed-debug-level test case.
To fix this, set the DFLTCC environment variable to zero while running
tests on SystemZ, which prevents use of hardware compression and falls
back to the software implementation.

Before this patch, export entries with empy RVA were displayed in the output. In some cases, when the module had exports with sparse ordinals, `llvm-objdump` used to print a lot of `0 0` lines.
We now skip over these empty entries in the output, just as `dumpbin` or binutils `objdump` does.

The `valueDelta` map was used to calculate the symbol value deltas from
the previous iteration. Since the symbol values themselves are also
updated every iteration, the following invariant holds:
```
sa[i].offset == sa[i].d->value + valueDelta[sa[i].d]
```
Note that `sa[i].offset` contains the original value of `sa[i].d` and is
never changed.
This means that the current way of updating symbol values can be
rewritten to not need the `valueDelta` map:
```
sa[i].d->value -= delta - valueDelta.find(sa[i].d)->second;
<=> (replace invariant)
sa[i].d->value -= delta - (sa[i].offset - sa[i].d->value);
<=>
sa[i].d->value = sa[i].d->value - (delta - (sa[i].offset - sa[i].d->value));
<=>
sa[i].d->value = sa[i].d->value - delta + sa[i].offset - sa[i].d->value;
<=>
sa[i].d->value = sa[i].offset - delta;
```
This patch implements this simplification. I believe this improves the
readability of the code as it took me quite some time to understand the
use of `valueDelta`. It might also have a slight performance benefit as
it removes one iteration over all relocations every relax iteration.

That patch adds a check for threadIndex being used with only threads
created by ThreadPoolExecutor. This helps catch two types of errors:
1. If a thread is created not by ThreadPoolExecutor its index may clash
with the index of another thread. Using threadIndex, in that case, may
lead to a data race.
2. Index of the main thread(threadIndex == 0) currently clashes with
the index of thread0 in ThreadPoolExecutor threads. That may lead
to a data race if main thread and thread0 are executed concurrently.
This patch allows execution tasks on the main thread only in case
parallel::strategy.ThreadsRequested == 1. In all other cases,
assertions check that threadIndex != UINT_MAX(i.e. that task

--remap-inputs-file= can be used to:
* replace an input file. E.g. `"*/libz.so=exp/libz.so"` can replace a resolved

When debugging an application where a bug is isolated to one single

* remove an input file with `/dev/null` (changed to `NUL` on Windows), e.g.
`"a.o=/dev/null"`. A build system may add unneeded dependencies.
This option gives a convenient way to test the result removing some inputs.

(bash/zsh process substitution is handy for specifying a pattern without using
a remap file, e.g. `--remap-inputs-file=<(printf 'a.o=aa.o')`, but it may be

Exact patterns are tested before wildcard patterns. In case of a tie, the first
patterns wins. This is an implementation detail that users should not rely on.

block count added to distributed ThinLTO index files breaks incremental
builds on ThinLTO - if any linked file has a different number of BBs,
then the accumulated sum placed in the index files will change, causing
all ThinLTO backend compiles to be redone.
The block count is only used for scaling of partial sample profiles, and
was added in D80403 for D79831.
This patch simply removes this field from the index files of non partial
sample profile compiles, which is NFC on the output of the compiler.
We subsequently need to see if this can be removed for partial sample
profiles without signficant performance loss, or redesigned in a way
that does not destroy caching.

This change is correct, but left a `config->threadCount` use that is error-prone
and may harm performance when parallel::strategy.compute_thread_count() > 16.
Embedded systems that do not use an ELF loader locate the
.ARM.exidx exception table via linker defined __exidx_start and
__exidx_end rather than use the PT_ARM_EXIDX program header. This
means that some linker scripts such as the picolibc C library's
linker script, do not have the .ARM.exidx sections at offset 0 in
the OutputSection. For example:
.except_unordered : {
. = ALIGN(8);
PROVIDE(__exidx_start = .);
*(.ARM.exidx*)
PROVIDE(__exidx_end = .);
} >flash AT>flash :text
This is within the specification of Arm exception tables, and is
handled correctly by ld.bfd.
This patch has 2 parts. The first updates the writing of the data
of the .ARM.exidx SyntheticSection to account for a non-zero
OutputSection offset. The second part makes the PT_ARM_EXIDX program
header generation a special case so that it covers only the
SyntheticSection and not the parent OutputSection. While not strictly
necessary for programs locating the exception tables via the symbols
it may cause ELF utilities that locate the exception tables via
the PT_ARM_EXIDX program header to fail. This does not seem to be the
case for GNU and LLVM readelf which seems to look for the
SHT_ARM_EXIDX section.

Currently, the --thinlto-prefix-replace="oldpath;newpath" option is used during
distributed ThinLTO thin links to specify the mapping of the input bitcode object
files' directory tree (oldpath) to the directory tree (newpath) used for both:
1) the output files of the thin link itself (the .thinlto.bc index files and the
optional .imports files)
2) the specified object file paths written to the response file given in the
--thinlto-index-only=${response} option, which is used by the final native
link and must match the paths of the native object files that will be
produced by ThinLTO backend compiles.
This patch expands the --thinlto-prefix-replace option to allow a separate directory
tree mapping to be specified for the object file paths written to the response file
(number 2 above). This is important to support builds and build systems where the
same output directory may not be written by multiple build actions (e.g. the thin link
and the ThinLTO backend compiles).
The new format is: --thinlto-prefix-replace="origpath;outpath[;objpath]"
This replaces the origpath directory tree of the thin link input files with
outpath when writing the thin link index and imports outputs (number 1
above). If objpath is specified it replaces origpath of the input files with
objpath when writing the response file (number 2 above), otherwise it
falls back to the old behavior of using outpath for this as well.

For functions that use DWARF encodings, their compact unwind entry will
contain a hint about the offset of their DWARF entry from the start of
the `__eh_frame` section. The encoding only has 3 bytes to encode this
hint.
Previously, I neglected to check for overflow (and didn't realize that
the value was merely a hint without needing to be exact.) So for large
`__eh_frame` sections, the hint would overflow and cause the compact
unwind MODE flag to be corrupted, leading to uncaught exceptions at
runtime.
This diff fixes things by encoding zero as the hint for offsets that are
too large. The unwinder will start a linear search at the hint location
for the matching CFI record. The only requirement is that the hint
points to a valid CFI record start, and the start of the section is
always the start of a CFI record (in well-formed programs).
I'm not adding a test for this because generating the test inputs takes
a bit too much time. However, I have been testing locally with this lit
