With this patch we keep track of the fact that . is a position in the
file and therefore not absolute. This allow us to compute relative
relocations that involve symbol that are defined in linker scripts
with '.'.
This fixes https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=30406
There is still more work to track absoluteness over the various
expressions, but this should unblock linking the EFI bootloader.
llvm-svn: 285641
We parse linker scripts very early, but whether an expression is
absolute or not can depend on a symbol defined in a .o. Given that, we
have to delay the computation of IsAbsolute. We can do that by storing
an AST when parsing or by also making IsAbsolute a function like we do
for the expression value. This patch implements the second option.
llvm-svn: 285628
And as a token of the new feature, make ALIGNOF always absolute.
This is a step in making it possible to have non absolute symbols out
of output sections.
llvm-svn: 285608
Previously, we have a lot of BumpPtrAllocators, but all these
allocators virtually have the same lifetime because they are
not freed until the linker finishes its job. This patch aggregates
them into a single allocator.

llvm-svn: 285452
Instead of storing a pointer, store the members we need.
The reason for doing this is that it makes it far easier to create
synthetic sections. It also avoids reading data from files multiple
times., which might help with cross endian linking and host
architectures with slow unaligned access.
There are obvious compacting opportunities, but this already has mixed
results even on native x86_64 linking.
There is also the possibility of better refactoring the code for
handling common symbols, but this already shows that a custom class is
not necessary.
llvm-svn: 285148
We were fairly inconsistent as to what information should be accessed
with getSectionHdr and what information (like alignment) was stored
elsewhere.
Now all section info has a dedicated getter. The code is also a bit
more compact.
llvm-svn: 285079
This script below shouldn't include file and program headers
to PT_LOAD segment, because it doesn't have PHDRS and FILEHDR
attributes:
PHDRS { all PT_LOAD; }
SECTIONS { /* list of sections here */ }
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D25774
llvm-svn: 284709
Linker scripts may specify PHDRS, but not specify section to
segment assignments, i.e:
PHDRS { seg PT_LOAD; }
SECTIONS {
.sec1 {} : seg
.sec2 {}
}
In such case linker should still choose some segment for .sec2 section.
This patch will add .sec2 to previously opened segments (seg) or to the
very first PT_LOAD segment, if no section-to-segment assignments has been
made
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D24795
llvm-svn: 284600
Both gold and ld accepts integers instead of named constants
for PHDRS.
Patch adds support for that.

skip() and skip(StringRef) were overloaded functions that
have different semantics. This patch rename one of the functions
to avoid function overloading.
llvm-svn: 284396
Most functions that return StringRef should check their return values,
so I'm planning on marking StringRef [[nodiscard]]. This requires
splitting up functions like next() that are sometimes just used for
side effects.
llvm-svn: 284363
While the toStringRef API almost certainly ends up populating the
SmallString here, the correct way to use this API is to use the return
value.

PT_OPENBSD_RANDOMIZE
The array element specifies the location and size of a part of the memory image of the program that must be filled with random data before any code in the object is executed. The memory region specified by a segment of this type may overlap the region specified by a PT_GNU_RELRO segment, in which case the intersection will be filled with random data before being marked read-only.

-z wxneeded creates a PHDR PT_OPENBSD_WXNEEDED.
PT_OPENBSD_WXNEEDED
The array element specifies that a process executing this file may need to be able to map or protect memory regions as simultaneously executable and writable. If the system is unable or unwilling to permit that for this executable then it may fail immediately. This segment type is meaningful only for executable files and is ignored in other objects.

Previously, we supported only SHF_COMPRESSED sections because it's
new and it's the ELF standard. But there are object files compressed
in the GNU style out there, so we had to support it.
Sections compressed in the GNU style start with ".zdebug_" and
contain different headers than the ELF standard's one. In this
patch, getRawCompressedData is responsible to handle it.
A tricky thing about GNU-style compressed sections is that we have
to rename them when creating output sections. ".zdebug_" prefix
implies the section is compressed. We need to rename ".zdebug_"
".debug" because our output sections are not compressed.
We do that in this patch.
llvm-svn: 284068
r283984 introduced a problem of too many warning messages being shown
when -ffunction-sections and -fdata-sections were used in conjunction
with --gc-sections linker flag and debugging information present. This
happens because lot of relocations from .debug_line section may become
invalid in such case. The newer fix doesn't show any warning message but
zeroes OutSec pointer in createInputSectionList() to avoid crash, when
relocations are written
llvm-svn: 284010
Sometimes the very first PT_LOAD segment, created by lld, can be empty.
This happens when (all conditions met):
- Linker script is used
- First section in ELF image is not RO
- Not enough space for program headers.
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D25330
llvm-svn: 283760
We were implicitly creating space for the headers. That is not the
behaviour of bfd, which requires the script to use SIZEOF_HEADERS. The
difference is important for scripts that don't use SIZEOF_HEADERS and
expect the first section to be at 0.
llvm-svn: 282818
If there is not sufficient address space, just give up and don't put
the header in the PT_LOAD.
This matches bfd behaviour and I found at least one script that
depends on having a section at address 0.
llvm-svn: 282750
The BYTE, SHORT, LONG, and QUAD commands store one, two, four, and eight bytes (respectively).
After storing the bytes, the location counter is incremented by the number of bytes
stored.
Previously our scripts handles these commands incorrectly. For example:
SECTIONS {
.foo : {
*(.foo.1)
BYTE(0x11)
...
We accepted the script above treating BYTE as input section description.
These commands are used in the wild though.

We were counting the size of the bss section holding common symbols twice:
Dot += CurOutSec->getSize();
flush();
The new code is also simpler as now flush is the only function that
inserts in AlreadyOutputOS, which makes sense since the set hold fully
output sections.

DEFINED(symbol)
Return 1 if symbol is in the linker global symbol table and is defined before
the statement using DEFINED in the script, otherwise return 0.
Can be used to define default values for symbols. Found it in the wild.
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D24858
llvm-svn: 282245
Found this operators used in the wild scripts, for example:

With the recent changes there should always be a 1:1 correspondence in
the correct order between OutputSections and OutputSectionCommands.
llvm-svn: 282176
The actual logic is to keep the output section if the output section
would have been ro/rw.
This is both simpler and more practical, as the intention is linker
scripts is to always keep of of a pair of ONLY_IF_RO/ONLY_IF_RW.

This is PR30442.
Previously we were failed to parce complex expressions like:
foo : { *(SORT_BY_NAME(bar) zed) }
Main idea of patch that globs and excludes can be wrapped in a SORT.
There is a difference in semanics of ld/gold:
ld likes:
*(SORT(EXCLUDE_FILE (*file1.o) .foo.1))
gold likes:
*(EXCLUDE_FILE (*file1.o) SORT(.foo.1))
Patch implements ld grammar, complex expressions like
next is not a problem anymore:
.abc : { *(SORT(.foo.* EXCLUDE_FILE (*file1.o) .bar.*) .bar.*) }
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D24758
llvm-svn: 282078
When final image has several .bss sections, lld fails
because second .bss always has zero VA. This causes
link error "Not enough space for ELF and program headers"
llvm-svn: 282067
It is not only a bit more straightforward now, but also next 2 issues are solved:
* It just crashed on ".foo : { *(EXCLUDE_FILE (*file1.o)) }" before.
* It accepted multiple EXCLUDE_FILEs in a row.

This reverts commit r282021, bringing back r282015.
The problem was that the comparison function was not a strict weak
ordering anymore, which this patch fixes.
Original message:
Only restrict order if both sections are in the script.
This matches gold and bfd behavior and is required to handle some scripts.
The script has to assume where PT_LOADs start in order to align that
spot. If we don't allow section it doesn't know about to move to the
middle, we can need more PT_LOADs and those will not be aligned.

This matches gold and bfd, and is pretty much required by some linker
scripts. They end with commands like
foo 0 : { *(bar) }
if we put any SHF_ALLOC sections after they can have an address that
is too low.

This matches bfd behavior. It also makes future changes simpler as we
don't have to worry about ignoring these commands in multiple places

This fixes pr30367, but more importantly, it changes how we compute offsets.
Now offset computation in a walk over linker script commands, like the
rest of assignAddresses. IMHO this is simpler to understand and if we
ever have to create multiple outputsections or chunks to change how we
handle test/ELF/linkerscript/alternate-sections.s it should be easier
to do it.

Previously, all input files were owned by the symbol table.
Files were created at various places, such as the Driver, the lazy
symbols, or the bitcode compiler, and the ownership of new files
was transferred to the symbol table using std::unique_ptr.
All input files were then free'd when the symbol table is freed
which is on program exit.
I think we don't have to transfer ownership just to free all
instance at once on exit.
In this patch, all instances are automatically collected to a
vector and freed on exit. In this way, we no longer have to
use std::unique_ptr.

Fixed code that was not checked before on windows for me, because of testcases that are

Inital commit message:

Previously we incorrectly handled cases when symbol name in extern c++ tag
was enclosed in quotes. Next case was treated as wildcard:
GLIBCXX_3.4 {
extern "C++" {
"aaa*"
}
But it should have not. Quotes around aaa here means that we should have do exact
name matching.
That is PR30268 which has name with pointer is interpreted as wildcard by lld:
extern "C++" {
"operator delete[](void*)";
