This is slightly simpler to read IMHO. Now if a symbol has a position
in the file, it is Defined.
The main motivation is that with this a SharedSymbol doesn't need a
section, which reduces the size of SymbolUnion.
With this the peak allocation when linking chromium goes from 568.1 to
564.2 MB.

Currently, LLD supports ASSERT as a separate command.
We support two forms now.
Assign expression-form: . = ASSERT(0x100)
(old GNU ld required it and some scripts in the wild are still using
something like . = ASSERT((_end - _text <= (512 * 1024 * 1024)), "kernel image bigger than KERNEL_IMAGE_SIZE");
Nowadays above is not a mandatory form and command-like form is commonly used:
ASSERT(<expr>, "text);
The return value of the ASSERT is Dot. That was implemented in D30171.
It looks like (2) is just a short version of (1) then.
GNU ld does *not* list ASSERT as a SECTIONS command:
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/SECTIONS.html#SECTIONS
Given above we probably can change ASSERT to be an assignment to Dot.
That makes the rest of the code much simpler. Patch do that.

Currently LLD sets OutSecOff in addSection for input sections.
That is a fake offset (just a rude approximation to remember the order),
used for sorting SHF_LINK_ORDER sections
(see resolveShfLinkOrder, compareByFilePosition).
There are 2 problems with such approach:
1. We currently change and reuse Size field as a value assigned. Changing size is
not good because leads to bugs. Currently, SIZEOF(.bss) for empty .bss returns 2
because we add two empty synthetic sections and increase size twice by 1.
(See PR37011: https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=37011)
2. Such approach simply does not work when --symbol-ordering-file is involved,
because processing of the ordering file might break the initial section order.
This fixes PR37011.

Currently, LLD print symbol assignment commands to the map file,
but it does not do that for assignments that are outside of the section
descriptions. Such assignments can affect the layout though.
The patch implements the following:
* Teaches LLD to print symbol assignments outside of section declaration.
* Teaches LLD to print PROVIDE/HIDDEN/PROVIDE hidden commands.
In case when symbol is not provided, nothing will be printed.

Currently when we build input sections list in linker script
we ignore all rel[a] sections. That was done to support
scripts like .rela.dyn : { *(.rela.data) } for emit relocs.
Though as a result following scripts were also silently ignored:
/DISCARD/ : { *(.rela.plt)
/DISCARD/ : { *(.rela.dyn)
and we produced output with this sections. That is not ideal.
The solution this patch suggests is simple: do not ignore synthetic
rel[a] sections. That way we can enable common discarding logic
for them and report a proper error.

LLD currently crashes when we have empty output section

for empty sections.

This implements INSERT AFTER in a following way:
During reading scripts it collects all insert statements.
After we done and read all files it inserts statements into script commands list.
With that:
* Rest of code does know nothing about INSERT.
* Approach is straightforward and have no visible limitations.
* It is also easy to support INSERT BEFORE (was seen in clang code once).
* Should work for PR35877 and similar cases.
Cons:
* It assumes we have "main" scripts that describes sections.

With the current code if the script has a PHDRS we always obey and try
to allocate a header. This can cause Min - HeaderSize to underflow.

This is PR36515.
Currenly if we have a script like .debug_info 0 : { *(.debug_info) },

That does not work, because it is common case for
debug sections to have a zero address expression.

that do not use symbols in its expressions.

This fixes pr36475.
I think this code can be simplified a bit, but I would like to check
in the more direct fix if we are in agreement on the direction and
then refactor.
This is not something that bfd does. The issue is not noticed in bfd
because it keeps fewer sections from the linkerscript in the output.
The reasons why it seems reasonable to do this:
- As George noticed, we would still keep the flags if the output
section had both an empty synthetic section and a regular section
- We need an heuristic to find the flags of output sections. Using the
flags of a synthetic section that would have been there seems a
reasonable heuristic.
llvm-svn: 326137
This continues direction started in D43069.
We can keep sections that are explicitly assigned to segment in script.
It helps to simplify code.

If two sections are in the same PT_LOAD, their relatives offsets,
virtual address and physical addresses are all the same.
I initially wanted to have a single global LMAOffset, on the
assumption that every ELF file was in practiced loaded contiguously in
both physical and virtual memory.
Unfortunately that is not the case. The linux kernel has:
LOAD 0x200000 0xffffffff81000000 0x0000000001000000 0xced000 0xced000 R E 0x200000
LOAD 0x1000000 0xffffffff81e00000 0x0000000001e00000 0x15f000 0x15f000 RW 0x200000
LOAD 0x1200000 0x0000000000000000 0x0000000001f5f000 0x01b198 0x01b198 RW 0x200000
LOAD 0x137b000 0xffffffff81f7b000 0x0000000001f7b000 0x116000 0x1ec000 RWE 0x200000
The delta for all but the third PT_LOAD is the same:
0xffffffff80000000. I think the 3rd one is a hack for implementing per
cpu data, but we can't break that.
llvm-svn: 323456
This fixes the crash reported at PR36083.
The issue is that we were trying to put all the sections in the same
PT_LOAD and crashing trying to write past the end of the file.
This also adds accounting for used space in LMARegion, without it all
3 PT_LOADs would have the same physical address.
llvm-svn: 323449
When a section placement (AT) command references the section itself,
the physical address of the section in the ELF header was calculated
incorrectly due to alignment happening right after the location
pointer's value was captured.

by Erick Reyes.

Previously, in r320472, I moved the calculation of section offsets and sizes
for compressed debug sections into maybeCompress, which happens before
assignAddresses, so that the compression had the required information. However,
I failed to take account of relocations that patch such sections. This had two
effects:
1. A race condition existed when a debug section referred to a different debug
section (see PR35788).
2. References to symbols in non-debug sections would be patched incorrectly.
This is because the addresses of such symbols are not calculated until after
assignAddresses (this was a partial regression caused by r320472, but they
could still have been broken before, in the event that a custom layout was used
in a linker script).
assignAddresses does not need to know about the output section size of
non-allocatable sections, because they do not affect the value of Dot. This
means that there is no longer a reason not to support custom layout of
compressed debug sections, as far as I'm aware. These two points allow for
delaying when maybeCompress can be called, removing the need for the loop I
previously added to calculate the section size, and therefore the race
condition. Furthermore, by delaying, we fix the issues of relocations getting
incorrect symbol values, because they have now all been finalized.

Advance the memory region offset when handling a linker script data
command such as BYTE or LONG. Failure to advance the offset results
in corrupted output with overlapping sections.
Update tests to check for this combination of both a) memory regions
and b) data commands.
Fixes https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35565
Patch by Owen Shaw!
llvm-svn: 321418
The size of an OutputSection is calculated early, to aid handling of compressed
debug sections. However, subsequent to this point, unused synthetic sections are
removed. In the event that an OutputSection, from which such an InputSection is
removed, is still required (e.g. because it has a symbol assignment), and no longer
has any InputSections, dot assignments, or BYTE()-family directives, the size
member is never updated when processing the commands. If the removed InputSection
had a non-zero size (such as a .got.plt section), the section ends up with the
wrong size in the output.
The fix is to reset the OutputSection size prior to processing the linker script
commands relating to that OutputSection. This ensures that the size is correct even
in the above situation.
Additionally, to reduce the risk of developers misusing OutputSection Size and
InputSection OutSecOff, they are set to simply the number of InputSections in an
OutputSection, and the corresponding index respectively. We cannot completely
stop using them, due to SHF_LINK_ORDER sections requiring them.
Compressed debug sections also require the full size. This is now calculated in
maybeCompress for these kinds of sections.
