lld currently only references dyld_stub_binder when it's needed.
ld64 always references it when libSystem is linked.
Match ld64.
The (somewhat lame) motivation is that `nm` on a binary without any
export writes a "no symbols" warning to stderr, and this change makes
it so that every binary in practice has at least a reference to
dyld_stub_binder, which suppresses that.
Every "real" output file will reference dyld_stub_binder, so most
of the time this shouldn't make much of a difference. And if you
really don't want to have this reference for whatever reason, you
can stop passing -lSystem, like you have to for ld64 anyways.
(After linking any dylib, we dump the exported list of symbols to
a txt file with `nm` and only relink downstream deps if that txt
file changes. A nicer fix is to make lld optionally write .tbd files
with the public interface of a linked dylib and use that instead,
but for now the txt files are what we do.)

This is the other flag clang passes when calling clang with two -arch
flags (which means with this, `clang -arch x86_64 -arch arm64 -fuse-ld=lld ...`
now no longer prints any warnings \o/). Since clang calls the linker several
times in that setup, it's not clear to the user from which invocation the
errors are. The flag's help text is
Specifies that the linker should augment error and warning messages
with the architecture name.
In ld64, the only effect of the flag is that undefined symbols are prefaced
with
Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
instead of the usual "Undefined symbols:". So for now, let's add this
only to undefined symbol errors too. That's probably the most common
linker diagnostic.
Another idea would be to prefix errors and warnings with "ld64.lld(x86_64):"
instead of the usual "ld64.lld:", but I'm not sure if people would
misunderstand that as a comment about the arch of ld itself.

This is a pretty big refactoring diff, so here are the motivations:
Previously, ICF ran after scanRelocations(), where we emitting
bind/rebase opcodes etc. So we had a bunch of redundant leftovers after
ICF. Having ICF run before Writer seems like a better design, and is
what LLD-ELF does, so this diff refactors it accordingly.
However, ICF had two dependencies on things occurring in Writer: 1) it
needs literals to be deduplicated beforehand and 2) it needs to know
which functions have unwind info, which was being handled by
`UnwindInfoSection::prepareRelocations()`.
In order to do literal deduplication earlier, we need to add literal
input sections to their corresponding output sections. So instead of
putting all input sections into the big `inputSections` vector, and then
filtering them by type later on, I've changed things so that literal
sections get added directly to their output sections during the 'gather'
phase. Likewise for compact unwind sections -- they get added directly
to the UnwindInfoSection now. This latter change is not strictly
necessary, but makes it easier for ICF to determine which functions have
unwind info.
Adding literal sections directly to their output sections means that we
can no longer determine `inputOrder` from iterating over
`inputSections`. Instead, we store that order explicitly on
InputSection. Bloating the size of InputSection for this purpose would
be unfortunate -- but LLD-ELF has already solved this problem: it reuses
`outSecOff` to store this order value.
One downside of this refactor is that we now make an additional pass
over the unwind info relocations to figure out which functions have
unwind info, since want to know that before `processRelocations()`. I've
made sure to run that extra loop only if ICF is enabled, so there should
be no overhead in non-optimizing runs of the linker.
The upside of all this is that the `inputSections` vector now contains
only ConcatInputSections that are destined for ConcatOutputSections, so
we can clean up a bunch of code that just existed to filter out other
elements from that vector.
I will test for the lack of redundant binds/rebases in the upcoming
cfstring deduplication diff. While binds/rebases can also happen in the
regular `.text` section, they're more common in `.data` sections, so it
seems more natural to test it that way.
This change is perf-neutral when linking chromium_framework.

Our implementation draws heavily from LLD-ELF's, which in turn delegates
its string deduplication to llvm-mc's StringTableBuilder. The messiness of
this diff is largely due to the fact that we've previously assumed that
all InputSections get concatenated together to form the output. This is
no longer true with CStringInputSections, which split their contents into
StringPieces. StringPieces are much more lightweight than InputSections,
which is important as we create a lot of them. They may also overlap in
the output, which makes it possible for strings to be tail-merged. In
fact, the initial version of this diff implemented tail merging, but
I've dropped it for reasons I'll explain later.
**Alignment Issues**
Mergeable cstring literals are found under the `__TEXT,__cstring`
section. In contrast to ELF, which puts strings that need different
alignments into different sections, clang's Mach-O backend puts them all
in one section. Strings that need to be aligned have the `.p2align`
directive emitted before them, which simply translates into zero padding
in the object file.
I *think* ld64 extracts the desired per-string alignment from this data
by preserving each string's offset from the last section-aligned
address. I'm not entirely certain since it doesn't seem consistent about
doing this; but perhaps this can be chalked up to cases where ld64 has
to deduplicate strings with different offset/alignment combos -- it
seems to pick one of their alignments to preserve. This doesn't seem
correct in general; we can in fact can induce ld64 to produce a crashing
binary just by linking in an additional object file that only contains
cstrings and no code. See PR50563 for details.
Moreover, this scheme seems rather inefficient: since unaligned and
aligned strings are all put in the same section, which has a single
alignment value, it doesn't seem possible to tell whether a given string
doesn't have any alignment requirements. Preserving offset+alignments
for strings that don't need it is wasteful.
In practice, the crashes seen so far seem to stem from x86_64 SIMD
operations on cstrings. X86_64 requires SIMD accesses to be
16-byte-aligned. So for now, I'm thinking of just aligning all strings
to 16 bytes on x86_64. This is indeed wasteful, but implementation-wise
it's simpler than preserving per-string alignment+offsets. It also
avoids the aforementioned crash after deduplication of
differently-aligned strings. Finally, the overhead is not huge: using
16-byte alignment (vs no alignment) is only a 0.5% size overhead when
linking chromium_framework.
With these alignment requirements, it doesn't make sense to attempt tail
merging -- most strings will not be eligible since their overlaps aren't
likely to start at a 16-byte boundary. Tail-merging (with alignment) for
chromium_framework only improves size by 0.3%.
It's worth noting that LLD-ELF only does tail merging at `-O2`. By
default (at `-O1`), it just deduplicates w/o tail merging. @thakis has
also mentioned that they saw it regress compressed size in some cases
and therefore turned it off. `ld64` does not seem to do tail merging at
all.

CString deduplication reduces chromium_framework from 250MB to 242MB, or
about a 3.2% reduction.

write the version numbers of the reexport instead of "host". This fixes that.
I first thought that the rule is to take the version numbers from the library
that originally had that install name (implemented in D103819), but that's not
what ld64 seems to be doing: It takes the version number from the first dylib
with that install name it loads, and it loads the reexporting library before

Modern versions of macOS (>= 10.7) and in general all modern Mach-O
target archs want PIEs by default. ld64 defaults to PIE for iOS >= 4.3,
as well as for all versions of watchOS and simulators. Basically all the
platforms LLD is likely to target want PIE. So instead of cluttering LLD's
code with legacy version checks, I think it's simpler to just default to
PIE for everything.
Note that `-no_pie` still works, so users can still opt out of it.

Previously, it was difficult to write code that handled both synthetic

fake InputSection at the start of every SyntheticSection.
This refactor allows us to handle DSOHandle like a regular Defined
symbol (since Defined symbols must be attached to an InputSection), and
paves the way for supporting `__mh_*header` symbols. Additionally, it
simplifies our binding/rebase code.
I did have to extend Defined a little -- it now has a `linkerInternal`
flag, to indicate that `___dso_handle` should not be in the final symbol
table.
I've also added some additional testing for `___dso_handle`.

Previously, SyntheticSections.cpp did not have a top-level `using namespace
llvm::MachO` because it caused a naming conflict: `llvm::MachO::Symbol` would
collide with `lld::macho::Symbol`.
`MachO::Symbol` represents the symbols defined in InterfaceFiles (TBDs). By
moving the inclusion of InterfaceFile.h into our .cpp files, we can avoid this
name collision in other files where we are only dealing with LLD's own symbols.
Along the way, I removed all unnecessary "MachO::" prefixes in our code.
Cons of this approach: If TextAPI/MachO/Symbol.h gets included via some other
header file in the future, we could run into this collision again.
Alternative 1: Have either TextAPI/MachO or BinaryFormat/MachO.h use a different
namespace. Most of the benefit of `using namespace llvm::MachO` comes from being
able to use things in BinaryFormat/MachO.h conveniently; if TextAPI was under a
different (and fully-qualified) namespace like `llvm::tapi` that would solve our
problems. Cons: lots of files across llvm-project will need to be updated, and
folks who own the TextAPI code need to agree to the name change.
Alternative 2: Rename our Symbol to something like `LldSymbol`. I think this is
ugly.
Personally I think alternative #1 is ideal, but I'm not sure the effort to do it is
worthwhile, this diff's halfway solution seems good enough to me. Thoughts?

-flat_namespace makes lld emit binaries that use name lookup that's more in
line with other POSIX systems: Instead of looking up symbols as (dylib,name)

-flat_namespace has three effects:
1. MH_TWOLEVEL and MH_NNOUNDEFS are no longer set in the Mach-O header
2. All symbols use BIND_SPECIAL_DYLIB_FLAT_LOOKUP as ordinal
3. When a dylib is added to the link, its dependent dylibs are also added,
so that lld can verify that no undefined symbols remain at the end of
a link with -flat_namespace. These transitive dylibs are added for symbol
resolution, but they are not emitted in LC_LOAD_COMMANDs.
-undefined with -flat_namespace still isn't implemented. Before this change,
it was impossible to hit that combination because -flat_namespace caused a

Dynamic lookup symbols are symbols that work like dynamic symbols
in ELF: They're not bound to a dylib like normal Mach-O twolevel lookup
symbols, but they live in a global pool and dyld resolves them against
exported symbols from all loaded dylibs.
This adds support for dynamical lookup symbols to lld/mac. They are
represented as DylibSymbols with file set to nullptr.
This also uses this support to implement the -U flag, which makes
a specific symbol that's undefined at the end of the link a
dynamic lookup symbol.
For -U, it'd be sufficient to just to a pass over remaining undefined symbols
at the end of the link and to replace them with dynamic lookup symbols then.
But I'd like to use this code to implement flat_namespace too, and that will
require real support for resolving dynamic lookup symbols in SymbolTable. So
this patch adds this now already.
While writing tests for this, I noticed that we didn't set N_WEAK_DEF in the

Private extern symbols are used for things scoped to the linkage unit.
They cause duplicate symbol errors (so they're in the symbol table,
unlike TU-scoped truly local symbols), but they don't make it into the
export trie. They are created e.g. by compiling with
-fvisibility=hidden.
If two weak symbols have differing privateness, the combined symbol is
non-private external. (Example: inline functions and some TUs that
include the header defining it were built with
-fvisibility-inlines-hidden and some weren't).
A weak private external symbol implicitly has its "weak" dropped and
behaves like a regular strong private external symbol: Weak is an export
trie concept, and private symbols are not in the export trie.
If a weak and a strong symbol have different privateness, the strong
symbol wins.
If two common symbols have differing privateness, the larger symbol
wins. If they have the same size, the privateness of the symbol seen
later during the link wins (!) -- this is a bit lame, but it matches
ld64 and this behavior takes 2 lines less to implement than the less
surprising "result is non-private external), so match ld64.
(Example: `int a` in two .c files, both built with -fcommon,
one built with -fvisibility=hidden and one without.)
This also makes `__dyld_private` a true TU-local symbol, matching ld64.
To make this work, make the `const char*` StringRefZ ctor to correctly
set `size` (without this, writing the string table crashed when calling
getName() on the __dyld_private symbol).
Mention in CommonSymbol's comment that common symbols are now disabled
by default in clang.
Mention in -keep_private_externs's HelpText that the flag only has an
effect with `-r` (which we don't implement yet -- so this patch here
doesn't regress any behavior around -r + -keep_private_externs)). ld64
doesn't explicitly document it, but the commit text of
http://reviews.llvm.org/rL216146 does, and ld64's
OutputFile::buildSymbolTable() checks `_options.outputKind() ==
Options::kObjectFile` before calling `_options.keepPrivateExterns()`

Weak references need not necessarily be satisfied at runtime (but they must
still be satisfied at link time). So symbol resolution still works as per usual,
but we now pass around a flag -- ultimately emitting it in the bind table -- to
indicate if a given dylib symbol is a weak reference.
ld64's behavior for symbols that have both weak and strong references is
a bit bizarre. For non-function symbols, it will emit a weak import. For
function symbols (those referenced by BRANCH relocs), it will emit a
regular import. I'm not sure what value there is in that behavior, and
since emulating it will make our implementation more complex, I've
decided to treat regular weakrefs like function symbol ones for now.
