Enable chained fixups in lld when all platform and version criteria are
met. This is an attempt at simplifying the logic used in ld 907:
93d74eafc3/src/ld/Options.cpp (L5458-L5549)
Some changes were made to simplify the logic:
- only enable chained fixups for macOS from 13.0 to avoid the arch check
- only enable chained fixups for iphonesimulator from 16.0 to avoid the
arch check
- don't enable chained fixups for not specifically listed platforms
- don't enable chained fixups for arm64_32
Reasons for rolling forward:
- the crash reported from Chromium was fixed in D151824 (not related to this patch at all)
- since D152824 was committed, it should now be safe to roll this forward.
New change:
- add an additional _ in name check

Apple deprecated bitcode in the deployment process in Xcode 14.0. Last
month Apple started requiring Xcode 14.1+ to submit apps to the App
Store. Since there isn't a use for bundling bitcode outside of
submitting to the App Store we should be safe to delete this handling
entirely from LLD.

The MachO format uses 2 bits to encode these personality funtions, with 0 reserved for "no-personality".
This means we can only have up to 3 personality. There are already three popular personalities: __gxx_personality_v0, __gcc_personality_v0, and __objc_personality_v0.
As a result, any system that needs custom-personality will run into a problem.
This patch implemented jyknight's proposal to simply force DWARFs for all non-canonical personality functions.

We can technically handle them, but since they shouldn't come up in any
real-world programs (since ld64 dedups strings unconditionally), there's
no reason to support them.
It's a thoroughly untested code path too -- as evidenced by the fact
that the only test this change breaks is one that verifies that we
reject relocations when dedup'ing. There is no test that covers the case
where we handle relocations in cstring sections when dedup is disabled.

Previously by default, when not using `--ifc=`, lld would not
deduplicate string literals. This reveals reliance on undefined behavior
where string literal addresses are compared instead of using string
equality checks. While ideally you would be able to easily identify and
eliminate the reliance on this UB, this can be difficult, especially for
third party code, and increases the friction and risk of users migrating
to lld. This flips the default to deduplicate strings unless
`--no-deduplicate-strings` is passed, matching ld64's behavior.

For

This does *not* match ld64's behavior, but it does match e.g. lld/COFF's

This is arguably easier to understand: clang prepends symbol names with `_`

This commit adds support for chained fixups, which were introduced in
Apple's late 2020 OS releases. This format replaces the dyld opcodes
used for supplying rebase and binding information, and encodes most of
that data directly in the memory location that will have the fixup
applied.
This reduces binary size and is a requirement for page-in linking, which
will be available starting with macOS 13.
A high-level overview of the format and my implementation can be found
in SyntheticSections.h.
This feature is currently gated behind the `-fixup_chains` flag, and
will be enabled by default for supported targets in a later commit.
Like in ld64, lazy binding is disabled when chained fixups are in use,
and the `-init_offsets` transformation is performed by default.

This commit adds support for 2 of the 7 defined ARM64 optimization

if the referenced address is within +/- 1 MiB
- LOH_ARM64_ADRP_ADRP, which transforms two ADRP instructions into
ADR+NOP if they reference the same page

== Background ==
`llvm-mc` generates unwind info in both compact unwind and DWARF
formats. LLD already handles the compact unwind format; this diff gets
us close to handling the DWARF format properly.
== Caveats ==
It's not quite done yet, but I figure it's worth getting this reviewed
and landed first as it's shaping up to be a fairly large code change.
**Known limitations of the current code:**
* Only works for x86_64, for which `llvm-mc` emits "abs-ified"
relocations as described in 618def651b.
`llvm-mc` emits regular relocations for ARM EH frames, which we do not
yet handle correctly.
Since the feature is not ready for real use yet, I've gated it behind a
flag that only gets toggled on during test suite runs. With most of the
new code disabled, we see just a hint of perf regression, so I don't
think it'd be remiss to land this as-is:
base diff difference (95% CI)
sys_time 1.926 ± 0.168 1.979 ± 0.117 [ -1.2% .. +6.6%]
user_time 3.590 ± 0.033 3.606 ± 0.028 [ +0.0% .. +0.9%]
wall_time 7.104 ± 0.184 7.179 ± 0.151 [ -0.2% .. +2.3%]
samples 30 31
== Design ==
Like compact unwind entries, EH frames are also represented as regular
ConcatInputSections that get pointed to via `Defined::unwindEntry`. This
allows them to be handled generically by e.g. the MarkLive and ICF
code. (But note that unlike compact unwind subsections, EH frame
subsections do end up in the final binary.)
In order to make EH frames "look like" a regular ConcatInputSection,
some processing is required. First, we need to split the `__eh_frame`
section along EH frame boundaries rather than along symbol boundaries.
We do this by decoding the length field of each EH frame. Second, the
abs-ified relocations need to be turned into regular Relocs.
== Next Steps ==
In order to support EH frames on ARM targets, we will either have to
teach LLD how to handle EH frames with explicit relocs, or we can try to
make `llvm-mc` emit abs-ified relocs for ARM as well. I'm hoping to do
the latter as I think it will make the LLD implementation both simpler
and faster to execute.
== Misc ==
The `obj-file-with-stabs.s` test had to be updated as the previous
version would trip assertion errors in the code. It appears that in our
attempt to produce a minimal YAML test input, we created a file with
invalid EH frame data. I've fixed this by re-generating the YAML and not
doing any hand-pruning of it.

A "zippered" dylib contains several LC_BUILD_VERSION load commands, usually
one each for "normal" macOS and one for macCatalyst.
These are usually created by passing something like
-shared -target arm64-apple-macos -darwin-target-variant arm64-apple-ios13.1-macabi
to clang, which turns it into
-platform_version macos 12.0.0 12.3 -platform_version "mac catalyst" 14.0.0 15.4
for the linker.
ld64.lld can read these files fine, but it can't write them. Before this
change, it would just silently use the last -platform_version flag and ignore
the rest.
This change adds a warning that writing zippered dylibs isn't implemented yet
instead.
Sadly, parts of ld64.lld's test suite relied on the previous
"silently use last flag" semantics for its test suite: `%lld` always expanded
to `ld64.lld -platform_version macos 10.15 11.0` and tests that wanted a
different value passed a 2nd `-platform_version` flag later on. But this now
produces a warning if the platform passed to `-platform_version` is not `macos`.
There weren't very many cases of this, so move these to use `%no-arg-lld` and
manually pass `-arch`.

The previous implementation of UnwindInfoSection materialized
all the compact unwind entries & applied their relocations, then parsed
the resulting data to generate the final unwind info. This design had
some unfortunate conseqeuences: since relocations can only be applied
after their referents have had addresses assigned, operations that need
to happen before address assignment must contort themselves. (See
{D113582} and observe how this diff greatly simplifies it.)
Moreover, it made synthesizing new compact unwind entries awkward.
Handling PR50956 will require us to do this synthesis, and is the main
motivation behind this diff.
Previously, instead of generating a new CompactUnwindEntry directly, we
would have had to generate a ConcatInputSection with a number of
`Reloc`s that would then get "flattened" into a CompactUnwindEntry.
This diff introduces an internal representation of `CompactUnwindEntry`
(the former `CompactUnwindEntry` has been renamed to
`CompactUnwindLayout`). The new CompactUnwindEntry stores references to
its personality symbol and LSDA section directly, without the use of
`Reloc` structs.
In addition to being easier to work with, this diff also allows us to
handle unwind info whose personality symbols are located in sections
placed after the `__unwind_info`.
