Previously, when we added an input section to an output section, we
called `OutputSectionFactory::addInputSec`. This isn't a good design
because, a factory class is intended to create a new object and
return it, but in this use case, it will never create a new object.
This patch fixes the design flaw.
llvm-svn: 315138
Factory::addInputSec added an output section to Script->Opt.Commands,
but that is too subtle. This patch makes it explicit so that it is easy
to see when a new element is added to Script->Opt.Commands.

This patch moves a std::find to a new function. It also removes
the following piece of code. I believe it should be fine because all
tests still pass.
unsigned Index = std::distance(Opt.Commands.begin(), I);
assert(Sec->SectionIndex == INT_MAX || Sec->SectionIndex == Index);
Sec->SectionIndex = Index;

addSection function was hard to read because it behaves differently
depending on its arguments but what exactly it does is not clear.
Now it should be better. Still, it is not clear (not what but) why
it does what it does, but I'll take a look at it later.
llvm-svn: 315124
That makes code a bit more consistent. Instead of removing sections there
we can just mark them as dead. So that removeEmptyCommands() will
handle the rest.

The previous logic was to try to detect if a linker script defined _gp
by checking !ElfSym::MipsGp->Value. That doesn't work in all cases as
the assigned value can be 0.
We now just always defined it Writer.cpp and always overwrite it
afterwards if needed.

Normally to find the offset of a value in a section, we have to
compute the value since the alignment is defined on the final address.
If the alignment is trivial, we can skip the value computation. This
allows us to know the offset even in cases where we cannot yet know
the value.
llvm-svn: 313777
We try to evaluate expressions early when possible, but it is not
possible to evaluate them early if they are based on a section.
Before we would get this wrong on ABSOLUTE expressions.

This patch removes lot of static Instances arrays from different input file
classes and introduces global arrays for access instead. Similar to arrays we
have for InputSections/OutputSectionCommands.
It allows to iterate over input files in a non-templated code.

When given
foobar = ALIGN(., 0x100);
my expectation from what the manual says is that the final address of
foobar will be aligned. It seems that bfd aligns the offset in the
section, which causes some odd results if the section is not 0x100
aligned. Gold aligns the address.
This changes lld to align the final address.

to separate commons based on file name patterns. The following linker script
construct does not work because commons are allocated before section placement
is done and the only synthesized BssSection that holds all commons has no file
associated with it:
SECTIONS { .common_0 : { *file0.o(COMMON) }}
This patch changes the allocation of commons to create a section per common
symbol and let the section logic do the layout.

linker script SECTION rules. This patch extends it to use a fully specified

Currently, LLD checks whether there's enough space for headers by
checking if headers fit below the address of the first allocated
section. However, that's always thue if the binary doesn't start
at zero which means that LLD always emits a segment for headers,
even if no other sections belong to that segment.
This is a problem in cases when linker script is being used with a
non-zero start address when we don't want to make the headers visible
by not leaving enough space for them. This pattern is common in
embedded programming but doesn't work in LLD.
This patch changes the behavior of LLD in case when linker script
is being to match the behavior of BFD ld and gold, which is to only
place headers into a segment when they're covered by some output
section.

With this Symbol has the same size as before, but DefinedRegular goes
from 72 to 64 bytes.
I also find this a bit easier to read. There are fewer places

This has a small but measurable speed improvement on all tests (1%
max).

This is a bit of a hack, but it is *so* convenient.
Now that we create synthetic linker scripts when none is provided, we
always have to handle paired OutputSection and OutputsectionCommand and
keep a mapping from one to the other.
This patch simplifies things by merging them and creating what used to
be OutputSectionCommands really early.

The comment at the top of compareByFilePosition indicates that it relies
on stable_sort to preserve the order of synthetic sections. We were
using sort instead of stable_sort, however, leading to incorrect

r307367 via D34345 split out the temporary address state used within
processCommands() and assignAddresses(). Due to the way that getSymbolValue
is used by the ScriptParser there is no way of giving the current
OutputSection to getSymbolValue() without somehow accessing the created
addressState. The suggestion was that by making a pointer that would go out
of scope we would find out by ASAN/MSAN or a crash if someone had misused
currentAddressState.

The assignAddresses() function accumulates state in the LinkerScript that
prevents it from being called multiple times. This change moves the state
into a separate structure AddressState that is created at the start of the
function and disposed of at the end.
CurAddressState is used rather than passing a reference to the state as a
parameter to the functions used by assignAddresses(). This is because the
getSymbolValue function needs to be executed in the context of AddressState
but it is stored in ScriptParser when AddressState is not available.
The AddressState is also used in a limited context by processCommands()
