Integrating MTE globals on Android revealed a lot of cases where
libraries are built as both archives and DSOs, and they're linked into
fully static and dynamic executables respectively.
MTE globals doesn't work for fully static executables. They need a
dynamic loader to process the special R_AARCH64_RELATIVE relocation
semantics with the encoded offset. Fully static executables that had
out-of-bounds derived symbols (like 'int* foo_end = foo[16]') crash
under MTE globals w/ static executables. So, LLD in its current form
simply errors out when you try and compile a fully static executable
that has a single MTE global variable in it.
It seems like a much better idea to simply have LLD not do the special
work for MTE globals in fully static contexts, and to drop any
unnecessary metadata. This means that you can build archives with MTE
globals and link them into both fully-static and dynamic executables.
We are brining a new algorithm for function layout (reordering) based on the
call graph (extracted from a profile data). The algorithm is an improvement of
top of a known heuristic, C^3. It tries to co-locate hot and frequently executed
together functions in the resulting ordering. Unlike C^3, it explores a larger
search space and have an objective closely tied to the performance of
instruction and i-TLB caches. Hence, the name CDS = Cache-Directed Sort.
The algorithm can be used at the linking or post-linking (e.g., BOLT) stage.
Refer to https://reviews.llvm.org/D152834 for the actual implementation of the
reordering algorithm.
This diff adds a linker option to replace the existing C^3 heuristic with CDS.
The new behavior can be turned on by passing "--use-cache-directed-sort".
(the plan is to make it default in a next diff)

rocksDB-8 binary (built with LTO+CSSPGO): wins on top of C^3 in [0.8%..1.5%]
Note that function layout affects the perf the most on older machines (with
smaller instruction/iTLB caches) and when huge pages are not enabled. The impact
on newer processors with huge pages enabled is likely neutral/minor.

When enabling WPD in an environment where native binaries are present, types we want to optimize can be derived from inside these native files and devirtualizing them can lead to correctness issues. RTTI can be used as a way to determine all such types in native files and exclude them from WPD providing a safe checked way to enable WPD.
The approach is:
1. In the linker, identify if RTTI is available for all native types. If not, under `--lto-validate-all-vtables-have-type-infos` `--lto-whole-program-visibility` is automatically disabled. This is done by examining all .symtab symbols in object files and .dynsym symbols in DSOs for vtable (_ZTV) and typeinfo (_ZTI) symbols and ensuring there's always a match for every vtable symbol.
2. During thinlink, if `--lto-validate-all-vtables-have-type-infos` is set and RTTI is available for all native types, identify all typename (_ZTS) symbols via their corresponding typeinfo (_ZTI) symbols that are used natively or outside of our summary and exclude them from WPD.
Testing:
ninja check-all
large Meta service that uses boost, glog and libstdc++.so runs successfully with WPD via --lto-whole-program-visibility. Previously, native types in boost caused incorrect devirtualization that led to crashes.

.plt and .branch_lt have the type of SHT_NOBITS and may be relocated by dynamic
relocations with non-zero addends. They should be skipped for the
--check-dynamic-relocations check, as --apply-dynamic-relocs does not apply.
A side effect is that -z rel does not work for the two sections.
Added two --apply-dynamic-relocs --check-dynamic-relocations tests. Also checked
linking a PPC64 clang.
Most targets support --check-dynamic-relocations --apply-dynamic-relocs, so it
makes sense to invert the condition. We want new ports to support
getImplicitAddend.
Close#57618: currently we align the end of PT_GNU_RELRO to a
common-page-size
boundary, but do not align the end of the associated PT_LOAD. This is
benign
when runtime_page_size >= common-page-size.
However, when runtime_page_size < common-page-size, it is possible that
`alignUp(end(PT_LOAD), page_size) < alignDown(end(PT_GNU_RELRO),
page_size)`.
In this case, rtld's mprotect call for PT_GNU_RELRO will apply to
unmapped
regions and lead to an error, e.g.
```
error while loading shared libraries: cannot apply additional memory protection after relocation: Cannot allocate memory
```
To fix the issue, add a padding section .relro_padding like mold, which
is contained in the PT_GNU_RELRO segment and the associated PT_LOAD
segment. The section also prevents strip from corrupting PT_LOAD program
headers.
.relro_padding has the largest `sortRank` among RELRO sections.
Therefore, it is naturally placed at the end of `PT_GNU_RELRO` segment
in the absence of `PHDRS`/`SECTIONS` commands.
In the presence of `SECTIONS` commands, we place .relro_padding
immediately before a symbol assignment using DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END (see
also https://reviews.llvm.org/D124656), if present.
DATA_SEGMENT_RELRO_END is changed to align to max-page-size instead of
common-page-size.
Some edge cases worth mentioning:
* ppc64-toc-addis-nop.s: when PHDRS is present, do not append
.relro_padding
* avoid-empty-program-headers.s: when the only RELRO section is .tbss,
it is not part of PT_LOAD segment, therefore we do not append
.relro_padding.

Close#65002: GNU ld from 2.39 onwards aligns the end of PT_GNU_RELRO to
a
max-page-size boundary (https://sourceware.org/PR28824) so that the last
page is
protected even if runtime_page_size > common-page-size.
In my opinion, losing protection for the last page when the runtime page
size is
larger than common-page-size is not really an issue. Double mapping a
page of up
to max-common-page for the protection could cause undesired VM waste.
Internally
we had users complaining about 2MiB max-page-size applying to shared
objects.
Therefore, the end of .relro_padding is padded to a common-page-size
boundary. Users who are really anxious can set common-page-size to match
their runtime page size.

17 tests need updating as there are lots of change detectors.
Fix#64600: the currently implementation is minimal (see

`__TEXT_REGION_ORIGIN__ = DEFINED(__TEXT_REGION_ORIGIN__) ? __TEXT_REGION_ORIGIN__ : 0;`
(used by avr-ld[1]) leads to a value of zero (default value in `declareSymbol`),
which is unexpected.
Assign orders to symbol assignments and references so that
for a script-defined symbol, the `DEFINED` results match users'
expectation. I am unclear about GNU ld's exact behavior, but this hopefully
matches its behavior in the majority of cases.

This adds a new -Bsymbolic option that directly binds all non-weak

* The new flag will match the default behavior on Mach-O, so you can get
consistent behavior across platforms.
* We have use cases for which making weak data preemptible is useful,
but we don't want to pessimize access to non-weak data. (For a large

unnecessarily pessimized by `-Bsymbolic-functions`.)

This patch adds support to lld for --fat-lto-objects. We add a new

Fat LTO objects contain both LTO compatible IR, as well as generated object

As per the ABI at
https://github.com/ARM-software/abi-aa/blob/main/memtagabielf64/memtagabielf64.rst,
this patch interprets the SHT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_GLOBALS_STATIC section,
which contains R_NONE relocations to tagged globals, and emits a
SHT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_GLOBALS_DYNAMIC section, with the correct
DT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_GLOBALS and DT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_GLOBALSSZ dynamic
entries. This section describes, in a uleb-encoded stream, global memory
ranges that should be tagged with MTE.
We are also out of bits to spare in the LLD Symbol class. As a result,
I've reused the 'needsTocRestore' bit, which is a PPC64 only feature.
Now, it's also used for 'isTagged' on AArch64.
An entry in SHT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_GLOBALS_STATIC is practically a guarantee
from an objfile that all references to the linked symbol are through the
GOT, and meet correct alignment requirements. As a result, we go through
all symbols and make sure that, for all symbols $SYM, all object files
that reference $SYM also have a SHT_AARCH64_MEMTAG_GLOBALS_STATIC entry
for $SYM. If this isn't the case, we demote the symbol to being
untagged. Symbols that are imported from other DSOs should always be
fine, as they're GOT-referenced (and thus the GOT entry either has the
correct tag or not, depending on whether it's tagged in the defining DSO
or not).

This commit provides linker support for Cortex-M Security Extensions (CMSE).
The specification for this feature can be found in ARM v8-M Security Extensions:
Requirements on Development Tools.
The linker synthesizes a security gateway veneer in a special section;
`.gnu.sgstubs`, when it finds non-local symbols `__acle_se_<entry>` and `<entry>`,
defined relative to the same text section and having the same address. The
address of `<entry>` is retargeted to the starting address of the
linker-synthesized security gateway veneer in section `.gnu.sgstubs`.
In summary, the linker translates input:
```
.text

__acle_se_entry:

```
into:
```
.section .gnu.sgstubs
entry:
SG
B.W __acle_se_entry
.text
__acle_se_entry:

```
If addresses of `__acle_se_<entry>` and `<entry>` are not equal, the linker
considers that `<entry>` already defines a secure gateway veneer so does not
synthesize one.
If `--out-implib=<out.lib>` is specified, the linker writes the list of secure
gateway veneers into a CMSE import library `<out.lib>`. The CMSE import library
will have 3 sections: `.symtab`, `.strtab`, `.shstrtab`. For every secure gateway
veneer <entry> at address `<addr>`, `.symtab` contains a `SHN_ABS` symbol `<entry>` with
value `<addr>`.
If `--in-implib=<in.lib>` is specified, the linker reads the existing CMSE import
library `<in.lib>` and preserves the entry function addresses in the resulting
executable and new import library.

Arm has BE8 big endian configuration called a byte-invariant(every byte has the same address on little and big-endian systems).
When in BE8 mode:
1. Instructions are big-endian in relocatable objects but
little-endian in executables and shared objects.
2. Data is big-endian.
3. The data encoding of the ELF file is ELFDATA2MSB.
To support BE8 without an ABI break for relocatable objects,the linker takes on the responsibility of changing the endianness of instructions. At a high level the only difference between BE32 and BE8 in the linker is that for BE8:
1. The linker sets the flag EF_ARM_BE8 in the ELF header.
2. The linker endian reverses the instructions, but not data.
This patch adds BE8 big endian support for Arm. To endian reverse the instructions we'll need access to the mapping symbols. Code sections can contain a mix of Arm, Thumb and literal data. We need to endian reverse Arm instructions as words, Thumb instructions
as half-words and ignore literal data.The only way to find these transitions precisely is by using mapping symbols. The instruction reversal will need to take place after relocation. For Arm BE8 code sections (Section has SHF_EXECINSTR flag ) we inserted a step after relocation to endian reverse the instructions. The implementation strategy i have used here is to write all sections BE32 including SyntheticSections then endian reverse all code in InputSections via mapping symbols.

For now, continue to emit the Android ELF note by default. In future, we

Allow controlling the CodeGenOpt::Level independent of the LTO
optimization level in LLD via new options for the COFF, ELF, MachO, and
wasm frontends to lld. Most are spelled as --lto-CGO[0-3], but COFF is
spelled as -opt:lldltocgo=[0-3].
See D57422 for discussion surrounding the issue of how to set the CG opt
level. The ultimate goal is to let each function control its CG opt
level, but until then the current default means it is impossible to
specify a CG opt level lower than 2 while using LTO. This option gives
the user a means to control it for as long as it is not handled on a
per-function basis.
