In 64 bit mode, any references to symbols that might end up autoimported
must be made via full 64 bit pointers (usually in .refptr stubs
generated by the compiler).
If referenced via e.g. a 32 bit rip relative offset, it might work
as long as DLLs are loaded close together in the 64 bit address
space, but will fail surprisingly later if they happen to be loaded
further apart. Any cases of that happening is usually a toolchain
error, and the sooner we can warn about it, the easier it is to diagnose.

In preparation for removing the `#include "llvm/ADT/StringExtras.h"`
from the header to source file of `llvm/Support/Error.h`, first add in
all the missing includes that were previously included transitively
through this header.
This adds very minimal support for ARM64EC/ARM64X targets,
just enough for interesting test cases. Next patches in the
series extend llvm-objdump and llvm-readobj to provide
better tests. Those will also be useful for testing further
ARM64EC LLD support.

This reverts commit 7370ff624d.
(and 47fb8ae2f9).
This commit broke the symbol type in import libraries generated
for mingw autoexported symbols, when the source files were built
with LTO. I'll commit a testcase that showcases this issue after
the revert.
LLVM contains a helpful function for getting the size of a C-style
array: `llvm::array_lengthof`. This is useful prior to C++17, but not as
helpful for C++17 or later: `std::size` already has support for C-style
arrays.

llvm::sort is beneficial even when we use the iterator-based overload,
since it can optionally shuffle the elements (to detect
non-determinism). However llvm::sort is not usable everywhere, for
example, in compiler-rt.

lld-link used to consistently print all /verbose output to stdout, and that was
an intentional decision: https://reviews.llvm.org/rG4bce7bcc88f3https://reviews.llvm.org/rGe6e206d4b4814 added message() and log(),
and back then `log()` morally was just `if (verbose) message(...)`
and message() wrote to stdout.
So that change moved most /verbose-induced writes to outs() to
log(). Except for the one in printDiscardedMessage(), since
the check for `verbose` for that one is in the caller, in
Writer::createSections():
if (config->verbose)
sc->printDiscardedMessage();
Later, https://reviews.llvm.org/D41033 changed log() to write to
stderr. That moved lld-link from writing all its /verbose output
to stdout to writing almost all of its /verbose output to stderr --
except for printDiscardedMessage() output.
This change moves printDiscardedMessage() to call log() as well,
so that all /verbose output once again consistently goes to the same
stream.

This patch removes globals from the lldCOFF library, by moving globals

it's needed.

The COFF driver produces an ABSOLUTE relocation base for an ADDR32
relocation type and the system is 64 bits (machine=AMD64). The
relocation information won't be added in the output and could
produce an incorrect address access during run-time. This change
set checks if the relocation type is IMAGE_REL_AMD64_ADDR32 and
if so, adds the relocated symbol as IMAGE_REL_BASED_HIGHLOW base.

This is a different approach from D98993 that should achieve most of the
same benefit. The two changes are:
1. Sort the list of associated child sections by section name
2. Do not consider associated sections to have children themselves
This fixes the main issue, which was that we sometimes considered an
.xdata section to have a child .pdata section. That lead to slow links
and larger binaries (less xdata folding).
Otherwise, this should be NFC: we go back to ignoring .debug/.gljmp and
other metadata sections rather than only looking at pdata/xdata. We
discovered that we do care about other associated sections, like ASan
global registration metadata.
This reverts commit bacf9cf2c5 and
reinstates commit 1a9bd5b813.
Reverting this commit did not appear to make the problem go away, so we
can go ahead and reland it.
This reverts commit 5b7aef6eb4 and relands
6529d7c5a4.
The ASan error was debugged and determined to be the fault of an invalid
object file input in our test suite, which was fixed by my last change.
LLD's project policy is that it assumes input objects are valid, so I
have added a comment about this assumption to the relocation bounds
check.
This is a pretty classic optimization. Instead of processing symbol
records and copying them to temporary storage, do a first pass to
measure how large the module symbol stream will be, and then copy the
data into place in the PDB file. This requires defering relocation until
much later, which accounts for most of the complexity in this patch.
This patch avoids copying the contents of all live .debug$S sections
into heap memory, which is worth about 20% of private memory usage when
making PDBs. However, this is not an unmitigated performance win,
because it can be faster to read dense, temporary, heap data than it is
to iterate symbol records in object file backed memory a second time.
Results on release chrome.dll:
peak mem: 5164.89MB -> 4072.19MB (-1,092.7MB, -21.2%)
wall-j1: 0m30.844s -> 0m32.094s (slightly slower)
wall-j3: 0m20.968s -> 0m20.312s (slightly faster)
wall-j8: 0m19.062s -> 0m17.672s (meaningfully faster)
I gathered similar numbers for a debug, component build of content.dll
in Chrome, and the performance impact of this change was in the noise.
The memory usage reduction was visible and similar.
Because of the new parallelism in the PDB commit phase, more cores makes
the new approach faster. I'm assuming that most C++ developer machines
these days are at least quad core, so I think this is a win.

lld/coff already deduplicated undefined symbols on a TU level: It would
group all references to a symbol from a single TU. This makes it so that
references from all TUs to a single symbol are grouped together.
Since lld/coff almost did what I thought it did already, the patch is
much smaller than the elf version. The only not local change is that
getSymbolLocations() now returns a vector<string> instead of a string,
so that the undefined symbol reporting code can know how many references
to a symbol exist in a given TU.
Fixes PR42260 for lld/coff.

An unrecognized signature (magic) at the beginning of a debug section
should not be a fatal error; it only means that the debug information
is in a format that is not supported by LLD. This can be due to it
being in CodeView versions 3 or earlier. These can occur in old import
libraries from legacy SDKs.
The test case was verified to work with MS link.exe.
