Gabriel Ravier 5dbd8faad5 [lld] Fixed a number of typos
I went over the output of the following mess of a command:

`(ulimit -m 2000000; ulimit -v 2000000; git ls-files -z | parallel --xargs -0 cat | aspell list --mode=none --ignore-case | grep -E '^[A-Za-z][a-z]*$' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n | grep -vE '.{25}' | aspell pipe -W3 | grep : | cut -d' ' -f2 | less)`

and proceeded to spend a few days looking at it to find probable typos
and fixed a few hundred of them in all of the llvm project (note, the
ones I found are not anywhere near all of them, but it seems like a
good start).

Sam Clegg b0f18af30b [lld][WebAssemby] Demote LazySymbols back to undefined symbols if they are not loaded
A LazySymbol is one that lives in `.a` archive and gets pulled in by a
strong reference.  However, weak references to such symbols do not
result in them be loaded from the archive.  In this case we want to
treat such symbols at undefined rather then lazy, once symbols
resolution is complete.

This fixes a crash bug in the linker when weakly referenced symbol that
lives in an archive file is live at the end of the link.  In the case of
dynamic linking this is expected to turn into an import with (in the
case of a function symbol) a function index.

Sam Clegg 53217ecb88 [lld][WebAssembly] Don't apply data relocations at static constructor time
Instead, export `__wasm_apply_data_relocs` and `__wasm_call_ctors`
separately.

This is required since user code in a shared library (such as static
constructors) should not be run until relocations have been applied to
all loaded libraries.

Back in https://reviews.llvm.org/D117412 we moved the application of

However, because the dynamic linker doesn't know the final addresses

As well as ELF linker does, retain all data segments named X referenced

For example, `FOO_MD` should not be stripped in the below case, but it's currently mis-stripped

```llvm
@FOO_MD  = global [4 x i8] c"bar\00", section "foo_md", align 1
@__start_foo_md = external constant i8*
@__stop_foo_md = external constant i8*
@llvm.used = appending global [1 x i8*] [i8* bitcast (i32 ()* @foo_md_size to i8*)], section "llvm.metadata"

define i32 @foo_md_size()  {

Sam Clegg 0e8f4ce31d [lld][WebAssembly] Fix crash on undefined+weak function syms in LTO objects
Symbols from LTO objects don't contain Wasm signatures, but we need a

Luckily, after LTO, we know that symbols that are not referenced by a

Sam Clegg 74f9841977 [lld][WebAssembly] Allow use of statically allocated TLS region.
It turns out we were already allocating static address space for TLS
data along with the non-TLS static data, but this space was going
unused/ignored.

With this change, we include the TLS segment in `__wasm_init_memory`
(which does the work of loading the passive segments into memory when a
module is first loaded).  We also set the `__tls_base` global to point
to the start of this segment.

This means that the runtime can use this static copy of the TLS data for
the first/primary thread if it chooses, rather than doing a runtime
allocation prior to calling `__wasm_init_tls`.

Practically speaking, this will allow emscripten to avoid dynamic
allocation of TLS region on the main thread.

Sam Clegg 875ee937ae [lld][WebAssembly] Handle TLS symbols in older object file
In older versions of llvm (e.g. llvm 13), symbols were not individually
flagged as TLS.  In this case, the indent was to implicitly mark any
symbols defined in TLS segments as TLS.  However, we were not performing
this implicit conversion if the segment was explicitly marked as TLS

As it happens, llvm 13 was branched between the addition of the segment
flag and the addition of the symbol flag. See:

- segment flag added: https://reviews.llvm.org/D102202
- symbol flag added: https://reviews.llvm.org/D109426

Testing this is tricky because the assembler will imply the TLS status
of the symbol based on the segment its declared in, so we are forced to
use a yaml file here.

Kristina Bessonova 0ac75e82ff Reland [DwarfDebug] Move emission of global vars, types and imports to endModule()
This patch proposes to move emission of global variables, types,
imported entities, etc from DwarfDebug::beginModule() to DwarfDebug::endModule().
Effectively, this changes nothing but the order of debug entities which
will be as follows:
* subprograms (including related context, local variables/labels,
  local imported entities; related types can be created as a part of
  the emission of local entities of an abstract subprogram);
* global variables (including related context and types);
* retained types and enums;
* non-local-scoped imported entities;
* basic types;
* other types left (as a part of local variables attributes emission).

Note that the order of emitted compile units may also be changed as now we emit
units that contain subprograms first and then all other non-empty units.

The motivation behind this change is the following:
(1) DwarfDebug::beginModule() is run at the very beginning of backend's pipeline,
    from this time IR can be significantly changed by target-specific passes.
    If it happens for debug metadata of global entities, those changes will not
    be reflected in the emitted DWARF.
(2) imported subprogram names should refer to an abstract subprogram if it exists,
    but it isn't known in DwarfDebug::beginModule() (it's possible to make some
    guesses based on location info, but it's not quite reliable);
(3) aforementioned entities if they are scoped within a bracketed block
    (subject of D113741) couldn't be emitted in DwarfDebug::beginModule()
    (they need parent emitted first). Another problem is if to try to gather
    some information about local entities and defer their emission
    (till subprogram's processing or DwarfDebug::endModule()) all the gathered
    details might be irrelevant / invalid by the time the entities are being
    emitted (because of (1)).

Sam Clegg 6f5c5cbe5f [lld][WebAssembly] Fix for debug relocations against undefined function symbols
This is very similar to https://reviews.llvm.org/D103557 but applies to
symbols which are undefined at link time rather than compile time.

We already have code that handles symbols which were defined at link
time but dead stripped by `--gc-sections` (See
`test/wasm/debug-removed-fn.ll`). In that case the symbols are not live
(!isLive()).  However, we can also have live symbols (which are
references by the program) but which are undefined at link time and are
imported by the linker.

In the test case here the symbol `undef` is used but is not defined
in the program but is imported by the linker due to the
`--import-undefined` flag.

Heejin Ahn 9261ee32dc [WebAssembly] Make EH work with dynamic linking
This makes Wasm EH work with dynamic linking. So far we were only able
to handle destructors, which do not use any tags or LSDA info.

1. This uses `TargetExternalSymbol` for `GCC_except_tableN` symbols,
   which points to the address of per-function LSDA info. It is more
   convenient to use than `MCSymbol` because it can take additional
   target flags.

2. When lowering `wasm_lsda` intrinsic, if PIC is enabled, make the
   symbol relative to `__memory_base` and generate the `add` node. If
   PIC is disabled, continue to use the absolute address.

3. Make tag symbols (`__cpp_exception` and `__c_longjmp`) undefined in
   the backend, because it is hard to make it work with dynamic
   linking's loading order. Instead, we make all tag symbols undefined
   in the LLVM backend and import it from JS.

4. Add support for undefined tags to the linker.

Heejin Ahn 3ec1760d91 [WebAssembly] Remove WasmTagType
This removes `WasmTagType`. `WasmTagType` contained an attribute and a
signature index:
```
struct WasmTagType {
  uint8_t Attribute;
  uint32_t SigIndex;
};
```

Currently the attribute field is not used and reserved for future use,
and always 0. And that this class contains `SigIndex` as its property is
a little weird in the place, because the tag type's signature index is
not an inherent property of a tag but rather a reference to another
section that changes after linking. This makes tag handling in the
linker also weird that tag-related methods are taking both `WasmTagType`
and `WasmSignature` even though `WasmTagType` contains a signature
index. This is because the signature index changes in linking so it
doesn't have any info at this point. This instead moves `SigIndex` to
`struct WasmTag` itself, as we did for `struct WasmFunction` in D111104.

In this CL, in lib/MC and lib/Object, this now treats tag types in the
same way as function types. Also in YAML, this removes `struct Tag`,
because now it only contains the tag index. Also tags set `SigIndex` in
`WasmImport` union, as functions do.

I think this makes things simpler and makes tag handling more in line
with function handling. These two shares similar properties in that both
of them have signatures, but they are kind of nominal so having the same
signature doesn't mean they are the same element.

Also a drive-by fix: the reserved 'attirubute' part's encoding changed
from uleb32 to uint8 a while ago. This was fixed in lib/MC and
lib/Object but not in YAML. This doesn't change object files because the
field's value is always 0 and its encoding is the same for the both
encoding.

This is effectively NFC; I didn't mark it as such just because it
changed YAML test results.

Sam Clegg 8fe128476e [lld][WebAssembly] Create optional internal symbols only after LTO object as been added
This is important for the cases where new symbols can be introduced
during LTO.   Specifically this happens for during TLS-lowering where
references to `__tls_base` can be introduced.

Sam Clegg ef8c9135ef [WebAssembly] Allow import and export of TLS symbols between DSOs
We previously had a limitation that TLS variables could not
be exported (and therefore could also not be imported).  This
change removed that limitation.

Thomas Lively b2032f18c9 [lld][WebAssembly] Relax limitations on multithreaded instantiation
For multithreaded modules (i.e. modules with a shared memory), lld injects a
synthetic Wasm start function that is automatically called during instantiation
to initialize memory from passive data segments. Even though the module will be
instantiated separately on each thread, memory initialization should happen only
once. Furthermore, memory initialization should be finished by the time each
thread finishes instantiation. Since multiple threads may be instantiating their
modules at the same time, the synthetic function must synchronize them.

The current synchronization tries to atomically increment a flag from 0 to 1 in
memory then enters one of two cases. First, if the increment was successful, the
current thread is responsible for initializing memory. It does so, increments
the flag to 2 to signify that memory has been initialized, then notifies all
threads waiting on the flag. Otherwise, the thread atomically waits on the flag
with an expected value of 1 until memory has been initialized. Either the
initializer thread finishes initializing memory (i.e. sets the flag to 2) first
and the waiter threads do not end up blocking, or the waiter threads succesfully
start waiting before memory is initialized so they will be woken by the
initializer thread once it has finished.

One complication with this scheme is that there are various contexts on the Web,
most notably on the main browser thread, that cannot successfully execute a
wait. Executing a wait in these contexts causes a trap, and in this case would
cause instantiation to fail. The embedder must therefore ensure that these
contexts win the race and become responsible for initializing memory, since that
is the only code path that does not execute a wait.

Unfortunately, since only one thread can win the race and initialize memory,
this scheme makes it impossible to have multiple threads in contexts that cannot
wait. For example, it is not currently possible to instantiate the module on
both the main browser thread as well as in an AudioWorklet. To loosen this
restriction, this commit inserts an extra check so that the wait will not be
executed at all when memory has already been initialized, i.e. when the flag
value is 2. After this change, the module can be instantiated on threads in
non-waiting contexts as long as the embedder can guarantee either that the
thread will win the race and initialize memory (as before) or that memory has
already been initialized when instantiation begins. Threads in contexts that can
wait can continue racing to initialize memory.

Fixes (or at least improves) PR51702.
