Also added the defaults for whether to generate this load command, which
the cmdline options are able to override.
There was also a difference to ld64 which is fixed here in that ld64 will
generate an empty data in code command if requested.

This load command generates data in the LINKEDIT section which
is a list of ULEB128 delta's to all of the functions in the __text section.
It is then 0 terminated and pointer aligned to pad.
ld64 exposes the -function-starts and no-function-starts cmdline options
to override behaviour from the defaults based on file types.
rdar://problem/24472630
llvm-svn: 260188
This is of the form A.B.C.D.E and to match ld64's behaviour, is
always output to files, even when the version is 0.

Defaulting to unknown matches ld64, but it also makes sure that all
of our code can handle not knowing the platform. For example, a later
commit will add support for version min load commands with an unknown
platform, which is a feature supported by ld64.
No test case here. The next commit will have one with the version min
code that needed this patch.
llvm-svn: 259739
This option is emitted in the min_version load commands.
Note, there's currently a difference in behaviour compared to ld64 in
that we emit a warning if we generate a min_version load command and
didn't give an sdk_version. We need to decide what the correct behaviour
is here as its possible we want to emit an error and force clients to
provide the option.
llvm-svn: 259729
If the command line contains something like -macosx_version_min and we
don't explicitly disable generation with -no_version_load_command then
we generate the LC_VERSION_MIN command in the output file.
There's a couple of FIXME's in here. These will be handled soon with
more tests but I didn't want to grow this patch any more than it already was.
rdar://problem/24472630
llvm-svn: 259718
This adds the no_objc_category_merging cmdline option which will
be used in an upcoming commit to disable the category optimizer.
It is on by default in ld64 so we match that here.
Test case will come soon with the patch to make use of this option.
llvm-svn: 259439
In many situations, we don't want to exit at the first error even in the
process model. For example, it is better to report all undefined symbols
rather than reporting the first one that the linker picked up randomly.
In order to handle such errors, we don't need to wrap everything with
ErrorOr (thanks for David Blaikie for pointing this out!) Instead, we
can set a flag to record the fact that we found an error and keep it
going until it reaches a reasonable checkpoint.
This idea should be applicable to other places. For example, we can
ignore broken relocations and check for errors after visiting all relocs.
In this patch, I rename error to fatal, and introduce another version of
error which doesn't call exit. That function instead sets HasError to true.
Once HasError becomes true, it stays true, so that we know that there
was an error if it is true.
I think introducing a non-noreturn error reporting function is by itself
a good idea, and it looks to me that this also provides a gradual path
towards lld-as-a-library (or at least embed-lld-to-your-program) without
sacrificing code readability with lots of ErrorOr's.

This option matches the behaviour of ld64, that is it prevents globals
from being dead stripped in executables and dylibs.

In a UI such as XCode, it can group the headers for a library with that library.
This is done in the CMakeLists.txt for the library itself by setting the path(s)
as ADDITIONAL_HEADER_DIRS.
LLVM already does this for all of its libraries, so just adding this to lld to
make things easier. Should be NFC.
llvm-svn: 257002
In a UI such as XCode, LLVM source files are in 'libraries' while clang
files are in 'clang libraries'.
This change moves the lld source to 'lld libraries' to make code browsing easier.
It should be NFC as the build itself is still the same, just the structure in a
UI differs.

We used to parse the LLVM options in Driver::link. However, that is
after parse() where we load files. By moving the LLVM option handling
earlier, we can add DEBUG() to code such as MachONormalizedFileToAtoms.cpp
and have it enabled correctly by '-mllvm --debug'.

This is a basic initial implementation of the -flat_namespace and
-undefined options for LLD-darwin. It ignores several subtlties,
but the result is close enough that we can now link LLVM (but not
clang) on Darwin and pass all regression tests.

This has a few advantages
* Less C++ code (about 300 lines less).
* Less machine code (about 14 KB of text on a linux x86_64 build).
* It is more debugger friendly. Just set a breakpoint on the exit function and
you get the complete lld stack trace of when the error was found.
* It is a more robust API. The errors are handled early and we don't get a
std::error_code hot potato being passed around.
* In most cases the error function in a better position to print diagnostics
(it has more context).

This is a direct port of the new PE/COFF linker to ELF.
It can take a single object file and generate a valid executable that executes at the first byte in the text section.

None of the implementations replace the SimpleFile with some other file,
they just modify the SimpleFile in-place, so a direct reference to the
file is sufficient.

This is an initial patch for a section-based COFF linker.
The patch has 2300 lines of code including comments and blank lines.
Before diving into details, you want to start from reading README
because it should give you an overview of the design.
All important things are written in the README file, so I write
summary here.
- The linker is already able to self-link on Windows.
- It's significantly faster than the existing implementation.
The existing one takes 5 seconds to link LLD on my machine,
while the new one only takes 1.2 seconds, even though the new
one is not multi-threaded yet. (And a proof-of-concept multi-
threaded version was able to link it in 0.5 seconds.)
- It uses much less memory (250MB vs. 2GB virtual memory space
to self-host).
- IMHO the new code is much simpler and easier to read than
the existing PE/COFF port.
