A linkonce_odr definition can be omitted in LTO compilation if
`canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable()` is true in all bitcode files.
Currently, we don't respect the `canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable()` bit from
symbols in a non-prevailing COMDAT, which could lead to incorrect
omission of a definition when merging a prevailing linkonce_odr and a
non-prevailing weak_odr, e.g. an implicit template instantiation and an
explicit template instantiation.
To fix#111341, allow the non-prevailing COMDAT code path to clear the
`ltoCanOmit` bit, so that `VisibleToRegularObj` could be false in
LTO.cpp. We could resolve either an Undefined or a Defined. For
simplicity, just use a Defined like the prevailing case (similar to how
we resolve symbols in ObjectFile COMDAT reviews.llvm.org/D120626).

We can just scan objectFiles and sharedFiles that have versioned symbols
to skip scanning the global symtab. While we won't suggest __wrap_foo
for undefined __wrap_foo@v1 when --wrap=foo@v1 is specified
(internalFile isn't scanned), this edge case difference is acceptable.
When computing whether a defined symbol is exported, we set
`exportDynamic` in Defined and CommonSymbol's ctor and merge the bit in
symbol resolution. The complexity is for the LTO special case
canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable, which can be simplified by introducing a
new bit.
We might simplify the state by caching includeInDynsym in exportDynamic
in the future.

SHF_MERGE sections with relocations are handled as InputSection (without
duplicate elimination). The output section retains the original
sh_entsize in non-relocatable links. This patch ports the behavior for
relocatable links as well.

SectionBase, InputSectionBase, InputSection, MergeInputSection, and
OutputSection have different member orders. Make them consistent and
adopt the order similar to the raw Elf64_Shdr.
so that we can remove the global `ctx` from toString implementations.
Rename lld::toString (to lld::elf::toStr) to simplify name lookup (we
have many llvm::toString and another lld::toString(const llvm::opt::Arg
&)).
The current diagnostic functions log/warn/error/fatal lack a context
argument and call the global `lld::errorHandler()`, which prevents
multiple lld instances in one process.
This patch introduces context-aware replacements:
* log => Log(ctx)
* warn => Warn(ctx)
* errorOrWarn => Err(ctx)
* error => ErrAlways(ctx)
* fatal => Fatal(ctx)
Example: `errorOrWarn(toString(f) + "xxx")` => `Err(ctx) << f << "xxx"`.
(`toString(f)` is shortened to `f` as a bonus and may access `ctx`
without accessing the global variable (see `Target.cpp`)).
`ctx.e = &context->e;` can be replaced with a non-global Errorhandler
when `ctx` becomes a local variable.
(For the ELF port, the long term goal is to eliminate `error`. Most can
be straightforwardly converted to `Err(ctx)`.)
Remove the global variable `symtab` and add a member variable
(`std::unique_ptr<SymbolTable>`) to `Ctx` instead.
This is one step toward eliminating global states.

Ctx was introduced in March 2022 as a more suitable place for such
singletons.
llvm/Support/thread.h includes <thread>, which transitively includes
sstream in libc++ and uses ios_base::in, so we cannot use `#define in ctx.sec`.
`symtab, config, ctx` are now the only variables using
LLVM_LIBRARY_VISIBILITY.
Fix the use-after-free bug and re-apply
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/106193
* Without the fix, the string referenced by `objSym.Name` could be
destroyed even if string saver keeps a copy of the referenced string.
This caused use-after-free.
* The fix ([latest
commit](9776ed44cf))
updates `objSym.Name` to reference (via `StringRef`) the string saver's
copy.
Test:
1. For `lld/test/ELF/lto/asmundef.ll`, its test failure is reproducible
with `-DLLVM_USE_SANITIZER=Address` and gone with the fix.
3. Run all tests by following
https://github.com/google/sanitizers/wiki/SanitizerBotReproduceBuild#try-local-changes.
* Without the fix, `ELF/lto/asmundef.ll` aborted the multi-stage test at
`@@@BUILD_STEP stage2/asan_ubsan check@@@`, defined
[here](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-zorg/blob/main/zorg/buildbot/builders/sanitizers/buildbot_fast.sh#L30)
* With the fix, the [multi-stage
test](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-zorg/blob/main/zorg/buildbot/builders/sanitizers/buildbot_fast.sh)
pass stage2 {asan, ubsan, masan}. This is also the test used by

**Original commit message**
`StringMap<T>` creates a [copy of the
string](d4c519e7b2/llvm/include/llvm/ADT/StringMapEntry.h (L55-L58))
for entry insertions and intentionally keep copies [since the
implementation optimizes string memory
usage](d4c519e7b2/llvm/include/llvm/ADT/StringMap.h (L124)).
On the other hand, linker keeps copies of symbol names [1] in
`lld::elf::parseFiles` [2] before invoking `compileBitcodeFiles` [3].
This change proposes to optimize away string copies inside
[LTO::GlobalResolutions](24e791b416/llvm/include/llvm/LTO/LTO.h (L409)),
which will make LTO indexing more memory efficient for ELF. There are
similar opportunities for other (COFF, wasm, MachO) formats.
The optimization takes place for lld (ELF) only. For the rest of use
cases (gold plugin, `llvm-lto2`, etc), LTO owns a string saver to keep
copies and use global resolution key for de-duplication.
Together with @kazutakahirata's work to make `ComputeCrossModuleImport`
more memory efficient, we see a ~20% peak memory usage reduction in a
binary where peak memory usage needs to go down. Thanks to the
optimization in
329ba523cc,
the max (as opposed to the sum) of `ComputeCrossModuleImport` or
`GlobalResolution` shows up in peak memory usage.
* Regarding correctness, the set of
[resolved](80c47ad3ae/llvm/lib/LTO/LTO.cpp (L739))
[per-module
symbols](80c47ad3ae/llvm/include/llvm/LTO/LTO.h (L188-L191))
is a subset of
[llvm::lto::InputFile::Symbols](80c47ad3ae/llvm/include/llvm/LTO/LTO.h (L120)).
And bitcode symbol parsing saves symbol name when iterating
`obj->symbols` in `BitcodeFile::parse` already. This change updates
`BitcodeFile::parseLazy` to keep copies of per-module undefined symbols.
* Presumably the undefined symbols in a LTO unit (copied in this patch
in linker unique saver) is a small set compared with the set of symbols
in global-resolution (copied before this patch), making this a
worthwhile trade-off. Benchmarking this change alone shows measurable
memory savings across various benchmarks.
