The --fix-cortex-a8 option implements a linker workaround for the
coretex-a8 erratum 657417. A summary of the erratum conditions is:
- A 32-bit Thumb-2 branch instruction B.w, Bcc.w, BL, BLX spans two
4KiB regions.
- The destination of the branch is to the first 4KiB region.
- The instruction before the branch is a 32-bit Thumb-2 non-branch
instruction.
The linker fix is to redirect the branch to a patch not in the first
4KiB region. The patch forwards the branch on to its target.
The cortex-a8, is an old CPU, with the first implementation of this
workaround in ld.bfd appearing in 2009. The cortex-a8 has been used in
early Android Phones and there are some critical applications that still
need to run on a cortex-a8 that have the erratum. The patch is applied
roughly 10 times on LLD and 20 on Clang when they are built with
--fix-cortex-a8 on an Arm system.
The formal erratum description is avaliable in the ARM Core Cortex-A8
(AT400/AT401) Errata Notice document. This is available from Arm on
request but it seems to be findable via a web search.

If there is no readonly section, we map:
* The ELF header at imageBase+maxPageSize
* Program headers at imageBase+maxPageSize+sizeof(Ehdr)
* The first section .text at imageBase+maxPageSize+sizeof(Ehdr)+sizeof(program headers)
Due to the interaction between Writer<ELFT>::fixSectionAlignments and
LinkerScript::allocateHeaders,
`alignDown(p_vaddr(R PT_LOAD)) = alignDown(p_vaddr(RX PT_LOAD))`.
The RX PT_LOAD will override the R PT_LOAD at runtime, which is not ideal:
```
// PHDR at 0x401034, should be 0x400034
PHDR 0x000034 0x00401034 0x00401034 0x000a0 0x000a0 R 0x4
// R PT_LOAD contains just Ehdr and program headers.
// At 0x401000, should be 0x400000
LOAD 0x000000 0x00401000 0x00401000 0x000d4 0x000d4 R 0x1000
LOAD 0x0000d4 0x004010d4 0x004010d4 0x00001 0x00001 R E 0x1000
```
* createPhdrs allocates the headers to the R PT_LOAD.
* fixSectionAlignments assigns `imageBase+maxPageSize+sizeof(Ehdr)+sizeof(program headers)` (formula: `alignTo(dot, maxPageSize) + dot % config->maxPageSize`) to addrExpr of .text
* allocateHeaders computes the minimum address among SHF_ALLOC sections, i.e. addr(.text)
* allocateHeaders sets address of ELF header to `addr(.text)-sizeof(Ehdr)-sizeof(program headers) = imageBase+maxPageSize`
The main observation is that when the SECTIONS command is not used, we
don't have to call allocateHeaders. This requires an assumption that
the presence of PT_PHDR and addresses of headers can be decided
regardless of address information.
This may seem natural because dot is not manipulated by a linker script.
The other thing is that we have to drop the special rule for -T<section>
in `getInitialDot`. If -Ttext is smaller than the image base, the headers
will not be allocated with the old behavior (allocateHeaders is called)
but always allocated with the new behavior.
The behavior change is not a problem. Whether and where headers are
allocated can vary among linkers, or ld.bfd across different versions
(--enable-separate-code or not). It is thus advised to use a linker
script with the PHDRS command to have a consistent behavior across
linkers. If PT_PHDR is needed, an explicit --image-base can be a simpler
alternative.

```
part.phdrs = script->hasPhdrsCommands() ? script->createPhdrs() : createPhdrs(part);
```
createPhdrs() allocates a PT_PHDR and a PF_R PT_LOAD, which will be
deleted later in LinkerScript::allocateHeaders, but leave a gap between
the program headers and the first section. Don't allocate the segments
to avoid the gap. PT_INTERP is likely not needed as well.

Recommit r370635 (reverted by r371202), with one change: move addOrphanSections() before ICF.
Before, orphan sections in two different partitions may be folded and
moved to the main partition.
Now, InputSection->OutputSection assignment for orphans happens before
ICF. ICF does not fold input sections with different output sections.

An alternative approach is to unfold a section `sec` in
processSectionCommands() when we find `sec` and `sec->repl` belong to
different output sections. I feel this patch is superior because this
can fold more sections and the decouple of
SectionCommand/SymbolAssignment gives flexibility:
* An ExprValue can't be evaluated before its section is assigned to an
output section -> we can delete getOutputSectionVA and simplify
another place where we had to check if the output section is null.
Moreover, a case in linkerscript/early-assign-symbol.s can be handled

The actual value does not matter.
Many ld.so (musl, all archs except MIPS of FreeBSD rtld-elf) even treat 2) and 3)
the same. If .sdata does not exist, it does not matter what value/section

2) moves the post-finalizeSections assignAddress() inside the loop

This change affects the non-linker script case (precisely, when the
`SECTIONS` command is not used). It deletes 3 alignments at PT_LOAD
boundaries for the default case: the size of a powerpc64 binary can be
decreased by at most 192kb. The technique can be ported to other
targets.
Let me demonstrate the idea with a maxPageSize=65536 example:
When assigning the address to the first output section of a new PT_LOAD,
if the end p_vaddr of the previous PT_LOAD is 0x10020, we advance to
the next multiple of maxPageSize: 0x20000. The new PT_LOAD will thus
have p_vaddr=0x20000. Because p_offset and p_vaddr are congruent modulo
maxPageSize, p_offset will be 0x20000, leaving a p_offset gap [0x10020,
0x20000) in the output.
Alternatively, if we advance to 0x20020, the new PT_LOAD will have
p_vaddr=0x20020. We can pick either 0x10020 or 0x20020 for p_offset!
Obviously 0x10020 is the choice because it leaves no gap. At runtime,
p_vaddr will be rounded down by pagesize (65536 if
pagesize=maxPageSize). This PT_LOAD will load additional initial
contents from p_offset ranges [0x10000,0x10020), which will also be
loaded by the previous PT_LOAD. This is fine if -z noseparate-code is in
effect or if we are not transiting between executable and non-executable
segments.
ld.bfd -z noseparate-code leverages this technique to keep output small.
This patch implements the technique in lld, which is mostly effective on
targets with large defaultMaxPageSize (AArch64/MIPS/PPC: 65536). The 3
removed alignments can save almost 3*65536 bytes.
Two places that rely on p_vaddr%pagesize = 0 have to be updated.
1) We used to round p_memsz(PT_GNU_RELRO) up to commonPageSize (defaults
to 4096 on all targets). Now p_vaddr%commonPageSize may be non-zero.
The updated formula takes account of that factor.
2) Our TP offsets formulae are only correct if p_vaddr%p_align = 0.
Fix them. See the updated comments in InputSection.cpp for details.
On targets that we enable the technique (only PPC64 now),
we can potentially make `p_vaddr(PT_TLS)%p_align(PT_TLS) != 0`
if `sh_addralign(.tdata) < sh_addralign(.tbss)`
This exposes many problems in ld.so implementations, especially the
offsets of dynamic TLS blocks. Known issues:
FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT rtld-elf (i386/amd64/powerpc/arm64)
glibc (HEAD) i386 and x86_64 https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24606
musl<=1.1.22 on TLS Variant I architectures (aarch64/powerpc64/...)
So, force p_vaddr%p_align = 0 by rounding dot up to p_align(PT_TLS).
The technique will be enabled (with updated tests) for other targets in
subsequent patches.

This patch
1) adds -z separate-code and -z noseparate-code (default).
2) changes the condition that the last page of last PF_X PT_LOAD is
padded with trap instructions.
Current condition (after D33630): if there is no `SECTIONS` commands.
After this change: if -z separate-code is specified.
-z separate-code was introduced to ld.bfd in 2018, to place the text
segment in its own pages. There is no overlap in pages between an
executable segment and a non-executable segment:
1) RX cannot load initial contents from R or RW(or non-SHF_ALLOC).
2) R and RW(or non-SHF_ALLOC) cannot load initial contents from RX.
lld's current status:
- Between R and RX: in `Writer<ELFT>::fixSectionAlignments()`, the start of a
segment is always aligned to maxPageSize, so the initial contents loaded by R
and RX do not overlap. I plan to allow overlaps in D64906 if -z noseparate-code
is in effect.
- Between RX and RW(or non-SHF_ALLOC if RW doesn't exist):
we currently unconditionally pad the last page to commonPageSize
(defaults to 4096 on all targets we support).
This patch will make it effective only if -z separate-code is specified.
-z separate-code is a dubious feature that intends to reduce the number
of ROP gadgets (which is actually ineffective because attackers can find
plenty of gadgets in the text segment, no need to find gadgets in
non-code regions).
With the overlapping PT_LOAD technique D64906, -z noseparate-code
removes two more alignments at segment boundaries than -z separate-code.
This saves at most defaultCommonPageSize*2 bytes, which are significant
on targets with large defaultCommonPageSize (AArch64/MIPS/PPC: 65536).
Issues/feedback on alignment at segment boundaries to help understand
the implication:
* binutils PR24490 (the situation on ld.bfd is worse because they have
two R-- on both sides of R-E so more alignments.)
* In binutils, the 2018-02-27 commit "ld: Add --enable-separate-code" made -z separate-code the default on Linux.
d969dea983
In musl-cross-make, binutils is configured with --disable-separate-code
to address size regressions caused by -z separate-code. (lld actually has the same
issue, which I plan to fix in a future patch. The ld.bfd x86 status is
worse because they default to max-page-size=0x200000).
* https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=237676 people want
smaller code size. This patch will remove one alignment boundary.
* Stef O'Rear: I'm opposed to any kind of page alignment at the
text/rodata line (having a partial page of text aliased as rodata and
vice versa has no demonstrable harm, and I actually care about small
systems).
So, make -z noseparate-code the default.

naming scheme change, and this patch does that.
I chose to rename variables so that they are in camelCase, just because that
is a minimal change to make variables to start with a lowercase letter.
Note to downstream patch maintainers: if you are maintaining a downstream lld
repo, just rebasing ahead of this commit would cause massive merge conflicts
because this patch essentially changes every line in the lld subdirectory. But
there's a remedy.
clang-llvm-rename tool is a batch tool, so you can rename variables in your
downstream repo with the tool. Given that, here is how to rebase your repo to
a commit after the mass renaming:
1. rebase to the commit just before the mass variable renaming,
2. apply the tool to your downstream repo to mass-rename variables locally, and
3. rebase again to the head.
Most changes made by the tool should be identical for a downstream repo and
for the head, so at the step 3, almost all changes should be merged and
disappear. I'd expect that there would be some lines that you need to merge by
hand, but that shouldn't be too many.

If .sdata is absent, linker synthesized __global_pointer$ gets a section index of SHN_ABS.
(ld.bfd has a similar issue: binutils PR24678)
Scrt1.o may use `lla gp, __global_pointer$` to reference the symbol PC
relatively. In -pie/-shared mode, lld complains if a PC relative
relocation references an absolute symbol (SHN_ABS) but ld.bfd doesn't:
ld.lld: error: relocation R_RISCV_PCREL_HI20 cannot refer to lute symbol: __global_pointer$
Let the reference of __global_pointer$ to force creation of .sdata to
fix the problem. This is similar to _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_, which forces
creation of .got or .got.plt .
Also, change the visibility from STV_HIDDEN to STV_DEFAULT and don't
define the symbol for -shared. This matches ld.bfd, though I don't
understand why it uses STV_DEFAULT.

Otherwise the getPartition() accessor may return an OOB pointer. Found
using _GLIBCXX_DEBUG.
The error is benign (we never dereference the pointer for the end marker)
so this wasn't caught by e.g. the sanitizer bots.

We create several types of synthetic sections for loadable partitions, including:
- The dynamic symbol table. This allows code outside of the loadable partitions
to find entry points with dlsym.
- Creating a dynamic symbol table also requires the creation of several other
synthetic sections for the partition, such as the dynamic table and hash table
sections.
- The partition's ELF header is represented as a synthetic section in the
combined output file, and will be used by llvm-objcopy to extract partitions.

Many -static/-no-pie/-shared/-pie applications linked against glibc or musl
should work with this patch. This also helps FreeBSD PowerPC64 to migrate
their lib32 (PR40888).
* Fix default image base and max page size.
* Support new-style Secure PLT (see below). Old-style BSS PLT is not
implemented, so it is not suitable for FreeBSD rtld now because it doesn't
support Secure PLT yet.
* Support more initial relocation types:
R_PPC_ADDR32, R_PPC_REL16*, R_PPC_LOCAL24PC, R_PPC_PLTREL24, and R_PPC_GOT16.
The addend of R_PPC_PLTREL24 is special: it decides the call stub PLT type
but it should be ignored for the computation of target symbol VA.
* Support GNU ifunc
* Support .glink used for lazy PLT resolution in glibc
* Add a new thunk type: PPC32PltCallStub that is similar to PPC64PltCallStub.
It is used by R_PPC_REL24 and R_PPC_PLTREL24.
A PLT stub used in -fPIE/-fPIC usually loads an address relative to
.got2+0x8000 (-fpie/-fpic code uses _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ relative
addresses).
Two .got2 sections in two object files have different addresses, thus a PLT stub
can't be shared by two object files. To handle this incompatibility,
change the parameters of Thunk::isCompatibleWith to
`const InputSection &, const Relocation &`.
PowerPC psABI specified an old-style .plt (BSS PLT) that is both
writable and executable. Linkers don't make separate RW- and RWE segments,
which causes all initially writable memory (think .data) executable.
This is a big security concern so a new PLT scheme (secure PLT) was developed to
address the security issue.
TLS will be implemented in D62940.
glibc older than ~2012 requires .rela.dyn to include .rela.plt, it can
not handle the DT_RELA+DT_RELASZ == DT_JMPREL case correctly. A hack
(not included in this patch) in LinkerScript.cpp addOrphanSections() to
work around the issue:
if (Config->EMachine == EM_PPC) {
// Older glibc assumes .rela.dyn includes .rela.plt
Add(In.RelaDyn);
if (In.RelaPlt->isLive() && !In.RelaPlt->Parent)
In.RelaDyn->getParent()->addSection(In.RelaPlt);
}

We currently (ab)use the Live bit on output sections to track whether
the section has ever had an input section added to it, and then later
use it during orphan placement. This will conflict with one of my upcoming
partition-related changes that will assign all output sections to a partition
(thus marking them as live) so that they can be added to the correct segment
by the code that creates program headers.
Instead of using the Live bit for this purpose, create a new flag and
start using it to track the property explicitly.

(1) {gcc,clang} -fuse-ld=bfd -pie -fPIE -nostdlib a.c => .interp created
(2) {gcc,clang} -fuse-ld=lld -pie -fPIE -nostdlib a.c => .interp not created
(3) {gcc,clang} -fuse-ld=lld -pie -fPIE -nostdlib a.c a.so => .interp created
The inconsistency of (2) is due to the condition `!Config->SharedFiles.empty()`.
To make lld behave more like ld.bfd, we could change the condition to:
Config->HasDynSymTab && !Config->DynamicLinker.empty() && Script->needsInterpSection();
However, that would bring another inconsistency as can be observed with:
(4) {gcc,clang} -fuse-ld=bfd -no-pie -nostdlib a.c => .interp not created
So instead, use `!Config->DynamicLinker.empty() && Script->needsInterpSection()`,
which is both simple and consistent in these cases.
The inconsistency of (4) likely originated from ld.bfd and gold's choice to have a default --dynamic-linker.
Their condition to create .interp is ANDed with (not -shared).
Since lld doesn't have a default --dynamic-linker,
compiler drivers (gcc/clang) don't pass --dynamic-linker for -shared,
and direct ld users are not supposed to specify --dynamic-linker for -shared,
we do not need the condition !Config->Shared.

For the Local Dynamic case of TLSDESC, _TLS_MODULE_BASE_ is defined as a
special TLS symbol that makes:
1) Without relaxation: it produces a dynamic TLSDESC relocation that
computes 0. Adding @dtpoff to access a TLS symbol.
2) With LD->LE relaxation: _TLS_MODULE_BASE_@tpoff = 0 (lowest address in
the TLS block). Adding @tpoff to access a TLS symbol.
For 1), this saves dynamic relocations and GOT slots as otherwise
(General Dynamic) we would create an R_X86_64_TLSDESC and reserve two
GOT slots for each symbol.
Add ElfSym::TlsModuleBase and change the signature of getTlsTpOffset()
to special case _TLS_MODULE_BASE_.

This change causes us to read partition specifications from partition
specification sections and split output sections into partitions according
to their reachability from partition entry points.
This is only the first step towards a full implementation of partitions. Later
changes will add additional synthetic sections to each partition so that
they can be loaded independently.
