Previously, we handled common symbols as a kind of Defined symbol,
but what we were doing for common symbols is pretty different from
regular defined symbols.
Common symbol and defined symbol are probably as different as shared
symbol and defined symbols are different.
This patch introduces CommonSymbol to represent common symbols.
After symbols are resolved, they are converted to Defined symbols
residing in a .bss section.

SymbolTable's add-family functions have lots of parameters because
when they have to create a new symbol, they forward given arguments
to Symbol's constructors. Therefore, the functions take at least as
many arguments as their corresponding constructors.
This patch simplifies the add-family functions. Now, the functions
take a symbol instead of arguments to construct a symbol. If there's
no existing symbol, a given symbol is memcpy'ed to the symbol table.
Otherwise, the functions attempt to merge the existing and a given
new symbol.
I also eliminated `CanOmitFromDynSym` parameter, so that the functions
take really one argument.
Symbol classes are trivially constructible, so looks like constructing
them to pass to add-family functions is as cheap as passing a lot of
arguments to the functions. A quick benchmark showed that this patch
seems performance-neutral.

For partitions I intend to use the same set of version indexes in
each partition for simplicity. Since each partition will need its own
VersionNeedSection this will require moving the verneed tracking out of
VersionNeedSection. The way I've done this is to move most of the tracking
into SharedFile. What will eventually become the per-partition tracking
still lives in VersionNeedSection.
As a bonus the code gets a little simpler and more consistent with how we

That patch is the fix for https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40703
"wrong line number info for obj file compiled with -ffunction-sections"
bug. The problem happened with only .o files. If object file contains
several .text sections then line number information showed incorrectly.
The reason for this is that DwarfLineTable could not detect section which
corresponds to specified address(because address is the local to the
section). And as the result it could not select proper sequence in the
line table. The fix is to pass SectionIndex with the address. So that it
would be possible to differentiate addresses from various sections. With
this fix llvm-objdump shows correct line numbers for disassembled code.

Summary:
In ld.bfd/gold, --no-allow-shlib-undefined is the default when linking
an executable. This patch implements a check to error on undefined
symbols in a shared object, if all of its DT_NEEDED entries are seen.
Our approach resembles the one used in gold, achieves a good balance to
be useful but not too smart (ld.bfd traces all DSOs and emulates the
behavior of a dynamic linker to catch more cases).
The error is issued based on the symbol table, different from undefined
reference errors issued for relocations. It is most effective when there
are DSOs that were not linked with -z defs (e.g. when static sanitizers
runtime is used).
gold has a comment that some system libraries on GNU/Linux may have
spurious undefined references and thus system libraries should be
excluded (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6811). The
story may have changed now but we make --allow-shlib-undefined the
default for now. Its interaction with -shared can be discussed in the
future.

Summary:
lld discards .gnu.linonce.* sections work around a bug in glibc.
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20543
Unfortunately, the Linux kernel uses a section named
.gnu.linkonce.this_module to store infomation about kernel modules. The
kernel reads data from this section when loading kernel modules, and
errors if it fails to find this section. The current behavior of lld
discards this section when kernel modules are linked, so kernel modules
linked with lld are unloadable by the linux kernel.
The Linux kernel should use a comdat section instead of .gnu.linkonce.
The minimum version of binutils supported by the kernel supports comdat
sections. The kernel is also not relying on the old linkonce behavior;
it seems to have chosen a name that contains a deprecated GNU feature.
Changing the section name now in the kernel would require all kernel
modules to be recompiled to make use of the new section name. Instead,
rather than discarding .gnu.linkonce.*, let's discard the more specific
section name to continue working around the glibc issue while supporting
linking Linux kernel modules.

Previously, we uncompress all compressed sections before doing anything.
That works, and that is conceptually simple, but that could results in
a waste of CPU time and memory if uncompressed sections are then
discarded or just copied to the output buffer.
In particular, if .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are compressed and if no
-gdb-index option is given, we wasted CPU and memory because we
uncompress them into newly allocated bufers and then memcpy the buffers
to the output buffer. That temporary buffer was redundant.
This patch changes how to uncompress sections. Now, compressed sections
are uncompressed lazily. To do that, `Data` member of `InputSectionBase`
is now hidden from outside, and `data()` accessor automatically expands
an compressed buffer if necessary.
If no one calls `data()`, then `writeTo()` directly uncompresses
compressed data into the output buffer. That eliminates the redundant
memory allocation and redundant memcpy.
This patch significantly reduces memory consumption (20 GiB max RSS to
15 Gib) for an executable whose .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are in total
5 GiB in an uncompressed form.

The Tag_ABI_VFP_args build attribute controls the procedure call standard
used for floating point parameters on ARM. The values are:
0 - Base AAPCS (FP Parameters passed in Core (Integer) registers
1 - VFP AAPCS (FP Parameters passed in FP registers)
2 - Toolchain specific (Neither Base or VFP)
3 - Compatible with all (No use of floating point parameters)
If the Tag_ABI_VFP_args build attribute is missing it has an implicit value
of 0.
We use the attribute in two ways:
- Detect a clash in calling convention between Base, VFP and Toolchain.
we follow ld.bfd's lead and do not error if there is a clash between an
implicit Base AAPCS caused by a missing attribute. Many projects
including the hard-float (VFP AAPCS) version of glibc contain assembler
files that do not use floating point but do not have Tag_ABI_VFP_args.

A::bar has: DW_AT_name [DW_FORM_string] ("bar") DW_AT_linkage_name [DW_FORM_strp] ( .debug_str[0x00000006] = "_ZN1A3barE")

hoho has: DW_AT_name [DW_FORM_strp] ( .debug_str[0x0000004a] = "hoho") and has NO DW_AT_linkage_name attribute. Because it would be
the same as DW_AT_name and DWARF producers avoids emiting excessive data.
Hence LLD should also use DW_AT_linkage_name when it is available.

r331971 changes the debug line parser interface to report LLVM errors in an

I'm proposing a new command line flag, --warn-backrefs in this patch.
The flag and the feature proposed below don't exist in GNU linkers
nor the current lld.
--warn-backrefs is an option to detect reverse or cyclic dependencies
between static archives, and it can be used to keep your program
compatible with GNU linkers after you switch to lld. I'll explain the
feature and why you may find it useful below.
lld's symbol resolution semantics is more relaxed than traditional
Unix linkers. Therefore,
ld.lld foo.a bar.o
succeeds even if bar.o contains an undefined symbol that have to be
resolved by some object file in foo.a. Traditional Unix linkers
don't allow this kind of backward reference, as they visit each
file only once from left to right in the command line while
resolving all undefined symbol at the moment of visiting.
In the above case, since there's no undefined symbol when a linker
visits foo.a, no files are pulled out from foo.a, and because the
linker forgets about foo.a after visiting, it can't resolve
undefined symbols that could have been resolved otherwise.
That lld accepts more relaxed form means (besides it makes more
sense) that you can accidentally write a command line or a build
file that works only with lld, even if you have a plan to
distribute it to wider users who may be using GNU linkers. With
--check-library-dependency, you can detect a library order that
doesn't work with other Unix linkers.
The option is also useful to detect cyclic dependencies between
static archives. Again, lld accepts
ld.lld foo.a bar.a
even if foo.a and bar.a depend on each other. With --warn-backrefs
it is handled as an error.
Here is how the option works. We assign a group ID to each file. A
file with a smaller group ID can pull out object files from an
archive file with an equal or greater group ID. Otherwise, it is a
reverse dependency and an error.
A file outside --{start,end}-group gets a fresh ID when
instantiated. All files within the same --{start,end}-group get the
same group ID. E.g.
ld.lld A B --start-group C D --end-group E
A and B form group 0, C, D and their member object files form group
1, and E forms group 2. I think that you can see how this group
assignment rule simulates the traditional linker's semantics.

The condition whether a section is alive or not by default
is becoming increasingly complex, so the decision of garbage
collection is spreading over InputSection.h and MarkLive.cpp,
which is not a good state.
This moves the code to MarkLive.cpp, to keep the file the central
place to make decisions about garbage collection.

If using --format=binary with an input file name that has one or more non-ascii

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.

The ELF standard defines that the SHT_GROUP section as follows:
- its sh_link has the symbol index, and
- the symbol name is used to uniquify section groups.
Object files created by GNU gold does not seem to comply with the
standard. They have this additional rule:
- if the symbol has no name and a STT_SECTION symbol, a section
name is used instead of a symbol name.
If we don't do anything for this, the linker fails with a mysterious
error message if input files are generated by gas. It is unfortunate
but I think we need to support it.

When we perform LTO builds with a version of ar that does not
understand LLVM bitcode objects, we end up with undefined references,
because our archive files do not list the bitcode symbols in their
indices. The error messages do not make it clear what the real problem
is. This change adds a note that points out the likely problem and
solution. It is similar in spirit to r282633, but aims to avoid false
positives by only triggering when we see both undefined references and
archives without symbols in their indices.

buried deep inside the constructors of the MCAsmBackend's.

Thunks are now implemented by redirecting the relocation to the
symbol S, to a symbol TS in a Thunk. The Thunk will transfer control
to S. This has the following implications:
- All the side-effects of Thunks happen within createThunks()
- Thunks are no longer stored in InputSections and Symbols no longer
need to hold a pointer to a Thunk
- The synthetic Thunk sections need to be merged into OutputSections
This implementation is almost a direct conversion of the existing
Thunks with the following exceptions:
- Mips LA25 Thunks are placed before the InputSection that defines
the symbol that needs a Thunk.
- All ARM Thunks are placed at the end of the OutputSection of the
first caller to the Thunk.
Range extension Thunks are not supported yet so it is optimistically
assumed that all Thunks can be reused.

This change makes lld keep the first .ARM.attributes section that it
