StringRefZ is a class to represent a null-terminated string. String
length is computed lazily, so it's more efficient than StringRef to
represent strings in string table.
The motivation of defining this new class is to merge functions
that only differ in string types; we have many constructors that takes
`const char *` or `StringRef`. With StringRefZ, we can merge them.

The module index dynamic relocation R_ARM_DTPMOD32 is always 1 for an
executable. When static linking and when we know that we are not a shared
object we can resolve the module index relocation statically.
The logic in handleNoRelaxTlsRelocation remains the same for Mips as it
has its own custom GOT writing code. For ARM we add the module index
relocation to the GOT when it can be resolved statically.
In addition the type of the RelExpr for the static resolution of TlsGotRel
should be R_TLS and not R_ABS as we need to include the size of
the thread control block in the calculation.
Addresses the TLS part of PR30218.

When -O0 is specified, we do not do section merging.
Though before this patch several sections were generated instead
of single, what is useless.

The MipsGotSection::getPageEntryOffset calculates index of GOT entry
with a "page" address. Previously this method changes the state
of MipsGotSection because it modifies PageIndexMap field. That leads
to the unpredictable results if getPageEntryOffset called from multiple threads.
The patch makes getPageEntryOffset constant. To do so it calculates GOT
entry index but does not update PageIndexMap field. Later in the
MipsGotSection::writeTo method linker calculates "page" addresses and
writes them to the output.
llvm-svn: 288129
If output section which referenced by R_MIPS_GOT_PAGE or R_MIPS_GOT16
relocations is small (less that 0x10000 bytes) and occupies two adjacent
0xffff-bytes pages, current formula gives incorrect number of required "page"
GOT entries. The problem is that in time of calculation we do not know
the section address and so we cannot calculate number of 0xffff-bytes
pages exactly.
This patch fix the formula. Now it gives a correct number of pages in
the worst case when "small" section intersects 0xffff-bytes page
boundary. From the other side, sometimes it adds one more redundant GOT
entry for each output section. But usually number of output sections
referenced by GOT relocations is small.

Right now we just remember a SymbolBody for each got entry and
duplicate a bit of logic to decide what value, if any, should be
written for that SymbolBody.
With ARM there will be more complicated values, and it seems better to
just use the relocation code to fill the got entries. This makes it
clear that each entry is filled by the dynamic linker or by the static
linker.

That unifies handling cases when we have SECTIONS and when
-no-rosegment is given in compareSectionsNonScript()
Now Config->SingleRoRx is used for check, testcase is provided.
llvm-svn: 288022
Previously Config->SingleRoRx was set in
createFiles() and used HasSections.
This change moves it to readConfigs at place of
common flags handling, and adds logic that sets
this flag separatelly from ScriptParser if SECTIONS present.

Unfortunatelly PT_ARM_EXIDX is special. There is no way to create it
from linker scripts, so we have to create it even if PHDRS is used.
This matches bfd and is required for the lld output to survive bfd's strip.
llvm-svn: 288012
Unfortunatelly some scripts look like
kernphys = ...
. = ....
and the expectation in that every orphan section is after the
assignment.
llvm-svn: 287996
This is an horrible special case, but seems to match bfd's behaviour
and is important for avoiding placing an orphan section before the
expected start of the file.

They return new vectors, but at the same time they mutate other vectors,
so returning values doesn't make much sense. We should just mutate two
vectors.

-color-diagnostics=auto is default because that's the same as
Clang's default. When color is enabled, error or warning messages
are colored like this.

warning:

Uncompressing section contents and spliting mergeable section contents
into smaller chunks are heavy tasks. They scan entire section contents
and do CPU-intensive tasks such as uncompressing zlib-compressed data
or computing a hash value for each section piece.
Luckily, these tasks are independent to each other, so we can do that
in parallel_for_each. The number of input sections is large (as opposed
to the number of output sections), so there's a large parallelism here.
Actually the current design to call uncompress() and splitIntoPieces()
in batch was chosen with doing this in mind. Basically what we need to
do here is to replace `for` with `parallel_for_each`.
It seems this patch improves latency significantly if linked programs
contain debug info (which in turn contain lots of mergeable strings.)
For example, the latency to link Clang (debug build) improved by 20% on
my machine as shown below. Note that ld.gold took 19.2 seconds to do
the same thing.

The function was used only within Relocations.cpp, but now we are
using it in many places, so this patch moves it to a file that fits
to the functionality.

This is important for cases like:
.sdata : {
*(.got.plt .got)
...
}
That was not supported before as there was no way to get access to
synthetic sections from script.
