SymbolBody and Symbol were separated classes due to a historical reason.
Symbol used to be a pointer to a SymbolBody, and the relationship
between Symbol and SymbolBody was n:1.
r2681780 changed that. Since that patch, SymbolBody and Symbol are
allocated next to each other to improve memory locality, and they have
1:1 relationship now. So, the separation of Symbol and SymbolBody no
longer makes sense.
This patch merges them into one class. In order to avoid updating too
many places, I chose SymbolBody as a unified name. I'll rename it Symbol
in a follow-up patch.

This change allows Thunks to be added on multiple passes. To do this we must
merge only the thunks added in each pass, and deal with thunks that have
drifted out of range of their callers.
A thunk may end out of range of its caller if enough thunks are added in
between the caller and the thunk. To handle this we create another thunk.

This change adds initial support for range extension thunks. All thunks must
be created within the first pass so some corner cases are not supported. A
follow up patch will add support for multiple passes.
With this change the existing tests arm-branch-error.s and
arm-thumb-branch-error.s now no longer fail with an out of range branch.
These have been renamed and tests added for the range extension thunk.

When an OutputSection is larger than the branch range for a Target we
need to place thunks such that they are always in range of their caller,
and sufficiently spaced to maximise the number of callers that can use
the thunk. We use the simple heuristic of placing the
ThunkSection at intervals corresponding to a target specific branch range.
If the OutputSection is small we put the thunks at the end of the executable
sections.

Summary:
The COFF linker and the ELF linker have long had similar but separate
Error.h and Error.cpp files to implement error handling. This change
introduces new error handling code in Common/ErrorHandler.h, changes the
COFF and ELF linkers to use it, and removes the old, separate
implementations.

Relocations.cpp is still head-scratching. Even though relocations are
processed by multiple functions, the functions are effectively one
gigantic function with lots of local and global shared states, because
they are really tightly coupled. It is really hard to predict whether
a change to a function will or will not affect other functions behaviors.
What I'm trying to do is to rewrite the code without breaking the
existing tests so that the code can tolerate a more aggressive
refactoring (i.e. splitting it to logically separated steps).
llvm-svn: 315673
This is not a mechanical transformation. Even though I believe this
patch is correct, I'm not 100% sure if lld with this patch behaves
exactly the same way as before on all edge cases. At least all tests
still pass.
I'm submitting this patch because it took almost a day to understand
this function, and I don't want to lose it.

This patch merges computeAddend and computeMipsAddend.
Getting an addend for a relocation is usually pretty easy:
it is either in the r_addend field (if RELA) or in a target
section (if REL).
However, MIPS has many special rules that are different from
other ELF ABIs. I don't think there were technical reasons to
be different, but the reality is that they are different.
It is unfortunate that we had to pass many parameters to
computeAddend, but it seems unavoidable because of MIPS.
llvm-svn: 315617
This is an attempt to make lld's relocation handler code understandable.
Since I don't fully understand what exactly this function does for all
possible cases (I believe no one can), I'm not really sure if this patch
is NFC, but at least no functionality change intended. All tests still pass.
llvm-svn: 315612
A section was passed to getRelExpr just to create an error message.
But if there's an invalid relocation, we would eventually report it
in relocateOne. So we don't have to pass a section to getRelExpr.
llvm-svn: 315552
We were using uint32_t as the type of relocation kind. It has a
readability issue because what Type really means in `uint32_t Type`
is not obvious. It could be a section type, a symbol type or a
relocation type.
Since we do not do any arithemetic operations on relocation types
(e.g. adding one to R_X86_64_PC32 doesn't make sense), it would be
more natural if they are represented as enums. Unfortunately, that
is not doable because relocation type definitions are spread into
multiple header files.
So I decided to use typedef. This still should be better than the
plain uint32_t because the intended type is now obvious.
llvm-svn: 315525
"Commands" was ambiguous because in the linker script, everything is
a command. We used to handle only SECTIONS commands, and at the time,
it might make sense to call them the commands, but it is no longer
the case. We handle not only SECTIONS but also MEMORY, PHDRS, VERSION,
etc., and they are all commands.
llvm-svn: 315409
This fixes pr34301.
As the bug points out, we want to keep some relocations with undefined
weak symbols. This means that we cannot always claim that these
symbols are not preemptible as we do now.
Unfortunately, we cannot also just always claim that they are
preemptible. Doing so would, for example, cause us to try to create a
plt entry when we don't even have a dynamic symbol table.
What almost works is to say that weak undefined symbols are
preemptible if and only if we have a dynamic symbol table. Almost
because we don't want to fail the build trying to create a copy
relocation to a weak undefined.

The patch implements initial support of microMIPS code linking:
- Handle microMIPS specific relocations.
- Emit both R1-R5 and R6 microMIPS PLT records.
For now linking mixed set of regular and microMIPS object files is not
supported. Also the patch does not handle (setup and clear) the
least-significant bit of an address which is utilized as the ISA mode
bit and allows to make jump between regular and microMIPS code without
any thunks.

Currently LLD reads the R_MIPS_HI16's addends in the `computeMipsAddend`
function, the R_MIPS_LO16's addends in both `computeMipsAddend` and
`getImplicitAddend` functions. This patch moves reading all addends to
the `getImplicitAddend` function. As a side effect it fixes a "paired"
HI16/LO16 addend calculation if "LO16" part of a pair is not found.

This is probably a small optimization, but the main motivation is
having a way of fixing pr34053 that doesn't require a hash lookup in
isPreempitible.

With this Symbol has the same size as before, but DefinedRegular goes
from 72 to 64 bytes.
I also find this a bit easier to read. There are fewer places
initializing File for example.
This has a small but measurable speed improvement on all tests (1%
max).

Reviewing another change I noticed that we use "getSymbols" to mean
different things in different files. Depending on the file it can
return
ArrayRef<StringRef>
ArrayRef<SymbolBody*>
ArrayRef<Symbol*>
ArrayRef<Elf_Sym>
With this change it always returns an ArrayRef<SymbolBody*>. The other
functions are renamed getELFsyms() and getSymbolNames().
Note that we cannot return ArrayRef<Symbol*> instead of
ArreyRef<SymbolBody*> because local symbols have a SymbolBody but not
a Symbol.

This is a bit of a hack, but it is *so* convenient.
Now that we create synthetic linker scripts when none is provided, we
always have to handle paired OutputSection and OutputsectionCommand and
keep a mapping from one to the other.
This patch simplifies things by merging them and creating what used to
be OutputSectionCommands really early.

Previously we handled this option implicitly, only
for infering unresolved symbols handling policy.
ld man says: "--noinhibit-exec Retain the executable
output file whenever it is still usable",
and we may want to handle other cases too.
