In an upcoming change I will need to make a distinction between section
type (code, data, bss) and permissions. The term that I use for both
of these things is "output characteristics".

In this reland I removed an unnecessary use of /debug in the test
delayimports32.test and used the /pdbaltpath flag in the test
pdb-publics-import.test, both of which avoid embedding absolute PDB
paths in executables which could affect later RVAs.

I needed to revert r330223 because we were embedding an absolute PDB
path in the .rdata section, which ended up being laid out before the
.idata section and affecting its RVAs. This flag will let us control
the embedded path.

LLVM_ON_WIN32 is set exactly with MSVC and MinGW (but not Cygwin) in
HandleLLVMOptions.cmake, which is where _WIN32 defined too. Just use the
default macro instead of a reinvented one.

This was reverted several times due to what ultimately turned out
to be incompatibilities in our serialized hash table format.
Several changes went in prior to this to fix those issues since
they were more fundamental and independent of supporting injected
sources, so now that those are fixed this change should hopefully
pass.

This is still failing on a different bot this time due to some
issue related to hashing absolute paths. Reverting until I can
figure it out.
llvm-svn: 328014
The issue causing this to fail in certain configurations
should be fixed.
It was due to the fact that DIA apparently expects there to be
a null string at ID 1 in the string table. I'm not sure why this
is important but it seems to make a difference, so set it.

Natvis is a debug language supported by Visual Studio for
specifying custom visualizers. The /NATVIS option is an
undocumented link.exe flag which will take a .natvis file
and "inject" it into the PDB. This way, you can ship the
debug visualizers for a program along with the PDB, which
is very useful for postmortem debugging.
This is implemented by adding a new "named stream" to the
PDB with a special name of /src/files/<natvis file name>
and simply copying the contents of the xml into this file.
Additionally, we need to emit a single stream named
/src/headerblock which contains a hash table of embedded
files to records describing them.
This patch adds this functionality, including the /NATVIS
option to lld-link.

GNU ld has got a number of different flags for adjusting how to
behave around stdcall functions. The --kill-at flag strips the
trailing sdcall suffix from exported functions (which otherwise
is included by default in MinGW setups).
This also strips it from the corresponding import library though.
That makes it hard to link to such an import library from code
that calls the functions - but this matches what GNU ld does with
this flag. Therefore, this flag is probably not sensibly used
together with import libraries, but probably mostly when creating
some sort of plugin, or if creating the import library separately
with dlltool.

Summary:
This patch adds some initial support for Windows control flow guard. At
the end of the day, the linker needs to synthesize a table of RVAs very
similar to the structured exception handler table (/safeseh).
Both /safeseh and /guard:cf take sections of symbol table indices
(.sxdata and .gfids$y) and turn them into RVA tables referenced by the
load config struct in the CRT through special symbols.

Summary:
r323164 made lld-link not overwrite import libraries when their
contents haven't changed. MSVC's link.exe does this only when
performing incremental linking. This change makes lld-link's import
library overwriting similarly dependent on whether or not incremental
linking is being performed. This is controlled by the /incremental or
/incremental:no options. In addition, /opt:icf, /opt:ref, and /order
turn off /incremental and issue a warning if /incremental was
specified on the command line.

I didn't implement the feature in the original patch because I didn't
come up with an idea to do that easily and efficiently. Turned out that
that is actually easy to implement.
In this patch, we collect comdat sections before gc is run and warn on
nonexistent symbols in an order file.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D42658
llvm-svn: 323699
With the /order option, you can give an order file. An order file
contains symbol names, one per line, and the linker places comdat
sections in that given order. The option is used often to optimize
an output binary for (in particular, startup) speed by improving
locality.

Summary:
This detects when an import library is about to be overwritten with a
newly built one with the same contents, and keeps the old library
instead. The use case for this is to avoid needlessly rebuilding
targets that depend on the import library in build systems that rely
on timestamps to determine whether a target requires rebuilding.
This feature was requested in PR35917.

Patch by Takuto Ikuta.
This patch reduces lld link time of chromium's blink_core.dll in
component build.
Total size of input argument in .directives become nearly 300MB in the
build and almost all its content are /EXPORT.
To reduce time of parsing too many /EXPORT option in the build, I
introduce fastpath for /EXPORT in ArgParser::parseDirectives.
On my desktop machine, 4 times stats of the link time are like below.
Improved around 20%.

Summary:
lld-link accepts link.exe's /ignore option, but used to ignore
it. This can lead to semantic differences when warnings are treated as
fatal errors. One such case is when we resolve an __imp_ symbol to a
local definition. We emit a warning in that case, which /wx turns into
a fatal. This change makes lld-link accept /ignore:4217 to suppress
that warning, so that code that links with link.exe /wx /ignore:4217
links with lld-link, too.
Fixes PR35762.

/debug and /debug:dwarf are orthogonal. An object file can contain both
CodeView and DWARF debug info, so the combination of /debug:dwarf and
/debug should generate both DWARF and a PDB, rather than /debug:dwarf
always suppressing PDB creation.
/nopdb is now redundant and can be removed. /debug /nopdb was previously
used to support DWARF, but specifying /debug:dwarf is entirely
equivalent to that combination now.
