This was missed when mass-adding support for other LTO options in
0b51e64830.
Group the existing thinlto_cache_dir with these other options in a new
group, next to the other LTO options.
This skips adding the options --thinlto-emit-index-files and
--thinlto-single-module=, which don't seem to have corresponding options
on the lld-link level currently.
This should fix https://github.com/mstorsjo/llvm-mingw/issues/386.
This allows avoiding including some stray DWARF sections (e.g. from
toolchain provided files), when writing a PDB file.
While that probably could be considered reasonable default behaviour,
PDB writing and including DWARF sections are two entirely orthogonal
concepts, and GNU ld (which can generate PDB files these days) does
include DWARF unless -S/-s is passed, when creating a PDB.
[RFC](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-add-build-id-flag-to-lld-link/74661)
Before, lld-link only generate the debug directory containing guid when
generating PDB with the hash of PDB content.
With this change, lld-link can generate the debug directory when only
`/build-id` is given:
1. If generating PDB, `/build-id` is ignored. Same behaviour as before.
2. Not generating PDB, using hash of the binary.
- Not under MinGW, the debug directory is still in `.rdata` section.
- Under MinGW, place the debug directory into new `.buildid` section.
Back when the --icf= option was hooked up in the MinGW frontend in LLD,
in 2017, lld-link didn't support safe ICF, and mapping it to noicf was
suggested in review: https://reviews.llvm.org/D40019
In 2018, in ab038025a5,
lld-link did get support for handling address significance tables,
allowing the ICF to operate safely on more sections.
Later in 2021, lld-link did get support for a separate safe ICF mode in
5bdc5e7efd /
https://reviews.llvm.org/D97436.
Hook this up for the MinGW frontend as well.
Treat this as an alias for the --shared option.
In practice in GNU ld, they aren't exact aliases but there are small
subtle differences in what happens and what doesn't, when they are set,
but those differences are probably not intended by users who might be
using the --dll option (which gets passed by -mdll in the compiler
driver), and the differences are within the area where small details
differ between LLD and GNU ld anyway.
Many of these options can be passed to the linker by the Clang
driver based on other options passed to Clang, after
a23bf1786b. Before commit
5c92c9f34a, these were ignored by
lld, but now we're erroring out on the unrecognized options.
The ELF linker has even more LTO options available, but not
all of these are currently settable via the lld-link option
interface, and some aren't set automatically by Clang but only
if the user manually passes them - and thus probably aren't in
wide use so far. (Previously LLD/MinGW would have accepted them
silently but ignored them though.)

These will be LLD-specific options to support Control Flow Guard for the
MinGW target. They are disabled by default, but enabling `--guard-cf`
will also enable `--guard-longjmp` unless `--no-guard-longjmp` is also
specified. These options maps to `-guard:cf,[no]longjmp`.
Note that these features require the `_load_config_used` symbol to
contain the load config directory and be filled with the required
symbols. While current versions of mingw-w64 do not supply this symbol,
the user can provide their own version of it.

Since binutils 2.36, GNU ld defaults to emitting base relocations,
and that version added the new option --disable-reloc-section to
disable it.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D127478
In e72403f96d, we added the flag
"--no-dynamicbase" for disabling the dynamicbase flag which we set
by default. At the time, ld.bfd didn't have any corresponding
option (as ld.bfd defaulted to not setting the flag). Almost at
the same time, corresponding options were added to ld.bfd for
disabling it (while it was being enabled by default), with a
different name, "--disable-dynamicbase".
Thus add the "--disable-dynamicbase" option. Make this default
one advertised in the help listing, but keep the "--no-dynamicbase"
form as an alias. Also improve checking for the last option set
if there are multiple ones on the same command line.
Also add corresponding disable options for a lot of other flags
that we set by default, also added in ld.bfd in the same commit:

If linking directly against a DLL without an import library, the
DLL export symbols might not contain stdcall decorations.
If we have an undefined symbol with decoration, and we happen to have
a matching undecorated symbol (which either is lazy and can be loaded,
or already defined), then alias it against that instead.
This matches what's done in reverse, when we have a def file
declaring to export a symbol without decoration, but we only have
a defined decorated symbol. In that case we do a fuzzy match
(SymbolTable::findMangle). This case is more straightforward; if we
have a decorated undefined symbol, just strip the decoration and look
for the corresponding undecorated symbol name.
Add warnings and options for either silencing the warning or disabling
the whole feature, corresponding to how ld.bfd does it.
(This feature works for any symbol decoration mismatch, not only when
linking against a DLL directly; ld.bfd also tolerates it anywhere,
and also fixes up mismatches in the other direction, like
SymbolTable::findMangle, for any symbol, not only exports. But in
practice, at least for lld, it would primarily end up used for linking
against DLLs.)

As the COFF linker is capable of linking directly against a DLL now
(after D104530, as long as it is running in mingw mode), don't error

This particular linker invocation is only run to check that we accept
options, but we don't inspect the generated command line. As all other
commands in the file have their output piped to FileCheck, the lit test
doesn't print any other output; therefore silence this one for consistency
as well.
This is consistent with how clang prints its internal commands with
-### and -v.
When linking with -verbose, we get log messages from the actual
linking written to stderr. By printing the command to the same stream,
we make sure they appear in a sensible chronological order.

Pass the original argv[0] to the coff linker, as the coff linker uses
the basename of argv[0] as the log prefix.
This makes error messages to be printed with a "ld.lld:" prefix
instead of "lld-link:". The current "lld-link:" prefix can be confusing
to users, as they're invoking the MinGW linker (and might not even have
a lld-link executable).
Keep the first argument as lld-link when printing the command line, to
make it an actually reproducible standalone command.

Besides -Bdynamic and -Bstatic, ld documents additional aliases for both of these options. Instead of -Bstatic, one may write -dn, -non_shared or -static. Instead of -Bdynamic one may write -dy or -call_shared. Source: https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.36/ld/Options.html
This patch adds those aliases to the MinGW driver of lld for the sake of ld compatibility.

In mingw configurations, the safeSEH bit might not be set in e.g. object

normal safeseh flag. As mingw setups don't generally use SEH on 32 bit
x86 at all, it should be fine to set that flag bit though - hook up

Allow disabling either the full auto import feature, or just
forbidding the cases that require runtime fixups.
As long as all auto imported variables are referenced from separate
.refptr$<name> sections, we can alias them on top of the IAT entries
and don't actually need any runtime fixups via pseudo relocations.
LLVM generates references to variables in .refptr stubs, if it
isn't known that the variable for sure is defined in the same object
module. Runtime pseudo relocs are needed if the addresses of auto
imported variables are used in constant initializers though.
Fixing up runtime pseudo relocations requires the use of
VirtualProtect (which is disallowed in WinStore/UWP apps) or
VirtualProtectFromApp. To allow any risk of ambiguity, allow
rejecting cases that would require this at the linker stage.
This adds support for the --disable-runtime-pseudo-reloc and
--disable-auto-import options in the MinGW driver (matching GNU ld.bfd)
with corresponding lld private options in the COFF driver.
