The way lazy binding works in mach-o is that the linker generates a helper
function and has the stub (PLT) initially jump to it. The helper function
pushes an extra parameter then jumps into dyld. The extra parameter is an
offset into the lazy binding info where dyld will find the information about
which symbol to bind and way lazy binding pointer to update.

The dynamic table was creating the entry DT_FINI_ARRAY{SZ} even when there was
no .fini_array section. The entries should be creating in the dynamic section
only if there are sections .init_array/.fini_array in the output.
Fixes the tests that checked for errroneous outputs.
llvm-svn: 221588
The value of _DYNAMIC should be pointing at the start of the .dynamic segment.
This was pointing to the end of the dynamic segment. Similarly the value of
_GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ was not proper too.

lld generates an ELF by adhering to the ELF spec by aligning vma/fileoffset to a
page boundary, but this becomes an issue when dealing with large pages. This
adds support so that lld generated executables adheres to the ELF spec with the
rule vma % p_align = offset % p_align.
This is supported by the flag --no-align-segments.
This could be the default in few targets like X86_64 to save space on disk.

The darwin linker lets you rearrange functions and data for better locality
(less paging). You do this with the -order_file option which supplies a text
file containing one symbol per line.
Implementing this required a small change to LayoutPass to add a custom sorter
hook.
llvm-svn: 221545
If /subsystem option is not given, the linker needs to infer the
subsystem based on the entry point symbol. If it fails to infer
that, the linker should error out on it.
LLD was almost correct, but it would fail to infer the subsystem
if the entry point is specified with /entry. This is because the
subsystem inference was coupled with the entry point function
searching (if no entry point name is specified, the linker needs
to find the right entry name).
This patch makes the subsystem inference an independent pass to
fix the issue. Now, as long as an entry point function is defined,
LLD can infer the subsystem no matter how it resolved the entry
point.
I don't think scanning all the defined symbols is fast, although
it shouldn't be that slow. The file class there does not provide
any easy way to find an atom by name, so this is what we can do
at this moment. I'd like to revisit this later to make it more
efficient.

The darwin linker has two ways to force all members of an archive to be loaded.
The -all_load option applies to all static libraries. The -force_load takes
a path to a library and just that library's members are force loaded.
llvm-svn: 221477
code. Same basic change that was done in r218429 for ARM code.
Where the ARM thumb symbolizer in llvm-objdump’s Mach-O disassembler is now
plumbed in with r221470 from the llvm trunk.

1. The path checks ELF header flags to prevent linking of incompatible files.
For example we do not allow to link files with different ABI, -mnan
flags, some combination of target CPU etc.
2. The patch merge ELF header flags from input object files to put their
combination to the generated file. For example, if some input files
have EF_MIPS_NOREORDER flag we need to put this flag to the output
file header.
I use the `parseFile()` (not `canParse()`) method because in case of
recognition of incorrect input flags combination we should show detailed
error message and stop the linking process and should not try to use
another `Reader`.
llvm-svn: 221439
Darwin uses two-level-namespace lookup for symbols which means the static
linker records where each symbol must be found at runtime. Thus defining a
symbol in a dylib loaded earlier will not effect where symbols needed by
later dylibs will be found. Instead overriding is done through a section
of type S_INTERPOSING which contains tuples of <interposer, interposee>.
llvm-svn: 221424
SECREL relocation's value is the offset to the beginning of the section.
Because of the off-by-one error, if a SECREL relocation target is at the
beginning of a section, it got wrong value.
Added a test that would have caught this.
llvm-svn: 221420
Many programs, for reasons unknown, really like to look at the
AddressOfRelocationTable to determine whether or not they are looking at
a bona fide PE file. Without this, programs like the UNIX `file'
utility will insist that they are looking at a MS DOS executable.
llvm-svn: 221335
LLD skipped COMDAT section symbols when reading them because
I thought we don't want to have symbols with the same name.
But they are actually needed because relocations may refer to
the section symbols. So we shoulnd't skip them.
llvm-svn: 221329
The job of the CompactUnwind pass is to turn __compact_unwind data (and
__eh_frame) into the compressed final form in __unwind_info. After it's done,
the original atoms are no longer relevant and should be deleted (they cause
problems during actual execution, quite apart from the fact that they're not
needed).
llvm-svn: 221301
The ELF writer creates a invalid binary for few cases with large filesize and
memory size for segments. This patch addresses the functionality and updates the
test. This patch also cleans up parts of the ELF writer for future enhancements
to support Linker scripts.
llvm-svn: 221233
Normally, PE files have section names of eight characters or less.
However, this is problematic for DWARF because DWARF section names are
things like .debug_aranges.
Instead of truncating the section name, redirect the section name into
the string table.

This patch does *not* implement any semantic actions, but it is a first step to
teach LLD how to read complete linker scripts. The additional linker scripts
statements whose parsing is now supported are:
* SEARCH_DIR directive
* SECTIONS directive
* Symbol definitions inside SECTIONS including PROVIDE and PROVIDE_HIDDEN
* C-like expressions used in many places in linker scripts
* Input to output sections mapping
The goal of this commit was guided towards completely parsing a default GNU ld
linker script and the linker script used to link the FreeBSD kernel. Thus, it
also adds a test case based on the default linker script used in GNU ld for
x86_64 ELF targets. I tested SPEC userland programs linked by GNU ld, using the
linker script dump'ed by this parser, and everything went fine. I then tested
linking the FreeBSD kernel with a dump'ed linker script, installed the new
kernel and booted it, everything went fine.
Directives that still need to be implemented:
* MEMORY
* PHDRS

lld was regenerating LC_DATA_IN_CODE in .o output files, but not into
final linked images.
Update test case to verify data-in-code info makes it into final linked images.
llvm-svn: 220827
Objective-C switched to a new ABI which uses a different mangling for class
names. But to keep projects building that use export lists that use the old
class name mangling, the linker recognizes the old names and transforms them
to the new mangling.
llvm-svn: 220598
In final linked shared images, the __TEXT segment contains both code and
the mach-o header/load-commands. In the case of a data-only dylib, there is
no code, so we need to force the addition of the __TEXT segment.
llvm-svn: 220597
This is a follow-up patch for r220333. r220333 renames exported symbols.
That raised another issue; if we have both decorated and undecorated names
for the same symbol, we'll end up have two duplicate exported symbol
entries.
This is a fix for that issue by removing duplciate entries.
llvm-svn: 220350
All compiler generated mach-o object files are marked with MH_SUBSECTIONS_VIA_SYMBOLS.
But hand written assembly files need to opt-in if they are written correctly.
The flag means the linker can break up a sections at symbol addresses and
dead strip or re-order functions.
This change recognizes object files without the flag and marks its atoms as
not dead strippable and adds a layout-after chain of references so that the
atoms cannot be re-ordered.
llvm-svn: 220348
There are two ways to specify a symbol to be exported in the module
definition file.
1) EXPORT <external name> = <symbol>
2) EXPORT <symbol>
In (1), you give both external name and internal name. In that case,
the linker tries to find a symbol using the internal name, and write
that address to the export table with the external name. Thus, from
the outer world, the symbol seems to be exported as the external name.
In (2), internal name is basically the same as the external name
with an exception: if you give an undecorated symbol to the EXPORT
directive, and if the linker finds a decorated symbol, the external
name for the symbol will become the decorated symbol.
LLD didn't implement that exception correctly. This patch fixes that.
llvm-svn: 220333
The darwin linker operates differently than the gnu linker with respect to
libraries. The darwin linker first links in all object files from the command
line, then to resolve any remaining undefines, it repeatedly iterates over
libraries on the command line until either all undefines are resolved or no
undefines were resolved in the last pass.
When Shankar made the InputGraph model, the plan for darwin was for the darwin
driver to place all libraries in a group at the end of the InputGraph. Thus
making the darwin model a subset of the gnu model. But it turns out that does
not work because the driver cannot tell if a file is an object or library until
it has been loaded, which happens later.
This solution is to subclass InputGraph for darwin and just iterate the graph
the way darwin linker needs.

HAVE_CXXABI_H is not defined on FreeBSD but the system actually
has the header. CMake test fails because the header depends on size_t.
llvm-svn: 220315
The canParse function for all the ELF subtargets check if the input files match
the subtarget.
There were few mismatches in the input files that didnt match the subtarget for
which the link was being invoked, which also acts as a test for this change.
llvm-svn: 220182
For PC relative accesses, negative addends were to be ignored. The linker was
not ignoring it and would fail with an assert. This fixes the issue and is able
to get Helloworld working.
llvm-svn: 220179
This fixes the way archive members are displayed when the linker is used with a
flag to show all the files that it processes.
When an archive file member is read, we need to show the archive filename and
the member.
llvm-svn: 220144
This would permit the ELF reader to check the architecture that is being
selected by the linking process.
This patch also sorts the include files according to LLVM conventions.
llvm-svn: 220129
-all_load tells the darwin linker to immediately load all members of all
archives. The code do that used reinterpret_cast<> instead of dyn_cast<>.
If the file was a dylib, the reinterpret_cast<> turned a pointer to a dylib
into a pointer to an archive...boom.
Added test case to reproduce the crash, simplified the code and used dyn_cast<>.
llvm-svn: 219990
To deal with cycles in shared library dependencies, the darwin linker supports
marking specific link dependencies as "upward". An upward link is when a
lower level library links against a higher level library.

This patch creates the import address table and sets its
