Refer to commit 6611d58f5bbc ("Relax R_RISCV_ALIGN"), we can relax
R_LARCH_ALIGN by same way. Reuse `SymbolAnchor`, `RISCVRelaxAux` and
`initSymbolAnchors` to simplify codes. As `riscvFinalizeRelax` is an
arch-specific function, put it override on `TargetInfo::finalizeRelax`,
so that LoongArch can override it, too.
The flow of relax R_LARCH_ALIGN is almost consistent with RISCV. The
difference is that LoongArch only has 4-bytes NOP and all executable
insn is 4-bytes aligned. So LoongArch not need rewrite NOP sequence.
Alignment maxBytesEmit parameter is supported in psABI v2.30.

All uses of `getFile()` assert `file` is non-null. `getFile` is not used
with a
synthetic section. Replace `cast_or_null` with `cast`.
Based on https://reviews.llvm.org/D45375 . Introduce a new InputFile
kind `InternalKind`, use it for
* `ctx.internalFile`: for linker-defined symbols and some synthesized
`Undefined`
* `createInternalFile`: for symbol assignments and --defsym
I picked "internal" instead of "synthetic" to avoid confusion with
SyntheticSection.
Currently a symbol's file is one of: nullptr, ObjKind, SharedKind,
BitcodeKind, BinaryKind. Now it's non-null (I plan to add an
`assert(file)` to Symbol::Symbol and change `toString(const InputFile
*)`
separately).
Debugging and error reporting gets improved. The immediate user-facing
difference is more descriptive "File" column in the --cref output. This
patch may unlock further simplification.
Currently each symbol assignment gets its own
`createInternalFile(cmd->location)`. Two symbol assignments in a linker
script do not share the same file. Making the file the same would be
nice, but would require non trivial code.
Linker relaxation may change relocations (offsets and types). However,
when --emit-relocs is used, relocations are simply copied from the input
section causing a mismatch with the corresponding (relaxed) code
section.
This patch fixes this as follows: for non-relocatable RISC-V binaries,
`InputSection::copyRelocations` reads relocations from the relocated
section's `relocations` array (since this gets updated by the relaxation
code). For all other cases, relocations are read from the input section
directly as before.
In order to reuse as much code as possible, and to keep the diff small,
the original `InputSection::copyRelocations` is changed to accept the
relocations as a range of `Relocation` objects. This means that, in the
general case when reading from the input section, raw relocations need
to be converted to `Relocation`s first, which introduces quite a bit of
boiler plate. It also means there's a slight code size increase due to
the extra instantiations of `copyRelocations` (for both range types).

In preparation for removing the `#include "llvm/ADT/StringExtras.h"`
from the header to source file of `llvm/Support/Error.h`, first add in
all the missing includes that were previously included transitively
through this header.
In a real-world case with functions that have many, many
R_RISCV_CALL_PLT relocations due to asan and ubsan
instrumentation, all these can be relaxed by an instruction and
the net result is more than 65536 bytes of reduction in the
output .text section that totals about 1.2MiB in final size.
This changes InputSection to use a 32-bit field for bytesDropped.
The RISCV relaxation keeps track in a 64-bit field and detects
32-bit overflow as it previously detected 16-bit overflow. It
doesn't seem likely that 32-bit overflow will arise, but it's not
inconceivable and it's cheap enough to detect it.
This unfortunately increases the size of InputSection on 64-bit
hosts by a word, but that seems hard to avoid.

to prepare for changing `relocations` from a SmallVector to a pointer.
Also change the `isec` parameter in `addAddendOnlyRelocIfNonPreemptible` to `GotSection &`.
The target-specific code (AArch64, PPC64) does not fit into the generic code and
adds virtual function overhead. Move relocateAlloc into ELF/Arch/ instead. This
removes many virtual functions (relaxTls*). In addition, this helps get rid of
getRelocTargetVA dispatch and many RelExpr members in the future.
This simplifies code, removes a read32 (for id==0 check), and makes it feasible
to combine some operations in EhInputSection::split and EhFrameSection::addRecords.
Mostly NFC, but fixes "Relocation not in any piece" assertion failure in an
erroneous case when a relocation offset precedes all CIE/FDE pices.
inputSections temporarily contains EhInputSection objects mainly for
combineEhSections. Place EhInputSection objects into a new vector
ehInputSections instead of inputSections.
Alternative to D125036. Implement R_RISCV_ALIGN relaxation so that we can handle
-mrelax object files (i.e. -mno-relax is no longer needed) and creates a
framework for future relaxation.
`relaxAux` is placed in a union with InputSectionBase::jumpInstrMod, storing
auxiliary information for relaxation. In the first pass, `relaxAux` is allocated.
The main data structure is `relocDeltas`: when referencing `relocations[i]`, the
actual offset is `r_offset - (i ? relocDeltas[i-1] : 0)`.
`relaxOnce` performs one relaxation pass. It computes `relocDeltas` for all text
section. Then, adjust st_value/st_size for symbols relative to this section
based on `SymbolAnchor`. `bytesDropped` is set so that `assignAddresses` knows
that the size has changed.
Run `relaxOnce` in the `finalizeAddressDependentContent` loop to wait for
convergence of text sections and other address dependent sections (e.g.
SHT_RELR). Note: extrating `relaxOnce` into a separate loop works for many cases
but has issues in some linker script edge cases.
After convergence, compute section contents: shrink the NOP sequence of each
R_RISCV_ALIGN as appropriate. Instead of deleting bytes, we run a sequence of
memcpy on the content delimitered by relocation locations. For R_RISCV_ALIGN let
the next memcpy skip the desired number of bytes. Section content computation is
parallelizable, but let's ensure the implementation is mature before
optimizations. Technically we can save a copy if we interleave some code with
`OutputSection::writeTo`, but let's not pollute the generic code (we don't have
templated relocation resolving, so using conditions can impose overhead to
non-RISCV.)
Tested:
`make ARCH=riscv CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- LLVM=1 defconfig all` built Linux kernel using -mrelax is bootable.
FreeBSD RISCV64 system using -mrelax is bootable.
bash/curl/firefox/libevent/vim/tmux using -mrelax works.

.zdebug is unlikely used any longer: gcc -gz switched from legacy
.zdebug to SHF_COMPRESSED with binutils 2.26 (2016), which has been
several years. clang 14 dropped -gz=zlib-gnu support. According to
Debian Code Search (`gz=zlib-gnu`), no project uses -gz=zlib-gnu.
Remove .zdebug support to (a) simplify code and (b) allow removal of llvm-mc's
--compress-debug-sections=zlib-gnu.
In case the old object file `a.o` uses .zdebug, run `objcopy --decompress-debug-sections a.o`

Two code paths may reach the EHFrame case in SectionBase::getOffset:
* .eh_frame reference
* relocation copy for --emit-relocs
The first may be used by clang_rt.crtbegin.o and GCC crtbeginT.o to get the
start address of the output .eh_frame. The relocation has an offset of 0 or
(x86-64 PC-relative leaq for clang_rt.crtbegin.o) -4. The current code just
returns `offset`, which handles this case well.
The second is related to InputSection::copyRelocations on .eh_frame (used by
--emit-relocs). .eh_frame pieces may be dropped due to GC/ICF, so we should
convert the input offset to the output offset. Use the same way as
MergeInputSection with a special case handling outSecOff==-1 for an invalid
piece (see eh-frame-marker.s).
This exposes an issue in mips64-eh-abs-reloc.s that we don't reliably
handle anyway. Just add --no-check-dynamic-relocations to paper over it.

Combined with the previous change, lld executable is ~2K smaller and some code
paths using InputSection::getParent are more efficient.
The fragmented headers lead to a design limitation that OutputSection has to be
incomplete, so we cannot use static_cast.
In many call sites we know uncompression cannot happen (non-SHF_ALLOC, or the
data (even if compressed) must have been uncompressed by a previous pass).
Prefer rawData in these cases. data() increases code size and prevents
optimization on rawData.
Previously an InputSectionBase is dead (`partition==0`) by default.
SyntheticSection calls markLive and BssSection overrides that with markDead.
It is more natural to make InputSectionBase live by default and let
--gc-sections mark InputSectionBase dead.
When linking a Release build of clang:
* --no-gc-sections:, the removed `inputSections` loop decreases markLive time from 4ms to 1ms.
* --gc-sections: the extra `inputSections` loop increases markLive time from 0.181296s to 0.188526s.
This is as of we lose the removing one `inputSections` loop optimization (4374824ccf6e7ae68264d996a9ae5bb5e3be7fc5).
I believe the loss can be mitigated if we refactor markLive.
It is fairly easy to forget SectionBase::repl after ICF.
Let ICF rewrite a Defined symbol's `section` field to avoid references to
SectionBase::repl in subsequent passes. This slightly improves the --icf=none
performance due to less indirection (maybe for --icf={safe,all} as well if most
symbols are Defined).
With this change, there is only one reference to `repl` (--gdb-index D89751).
We can undo f4fb5fd7523f8e3c3b3966d43c0a28457b59d1d8 (`Move Repl to SectionBase.`)
but move `repl` to `InputSection` instead.
