Shared libraries should have entry set following the same rules as for
regular binaries. The only difference is that in case the default entry
point (_start or __start) isn't found (unless it was set explicitly), we
shouldn't give a warning as in case of regular binaries.

If we do, the freebsd dynamic linker tries to call mmap with a size 0,
which fails.
It is hard to avoid creating them when linker scripts are used, so we
just delete empty PT_LOADs at the end.

On Linux (and probably on other Unix-like systems), unlink(2) is
noticeably slow. It takes 250 milliseconds to remove a 1 GB file
on ext4 filesystem on my machine, whether the file is on SSD or
on a spinning disk.
To create a new result file, we remove existing file first. So, if
you repeatedly link a 1 GB program in a regular compile-link-debug
cycle, every cycle wastes 250 milliseconds only to remove a file.
Since LLD can link a 1 GB in about 5 seconds, that waste actually
matters.
This patch defines `unlinkAsync` function. The function spawns a
background thread to call unlink. The calling thread returns
almost immediately.

Binary output feature is a bit confuzing. bfd and gold output differs a lot sometimes,
though it is important for FreeBSD mbr loaders.
Patch change the way how we compute file offsets for binary output.
This fixes PR31196.
Previously offsets were calculated basing on offsets and addresses of sections
from the same loads:
if (Sec == First)
return alignTo(Off, Target->MaxPageSize, Sec->Addr);
return First->Offset + Sec->Addr - First->Addr;
bfd assigns offsets for each section to VA - MinVA:
https://github.com/redox-os/binutils-gdb/blob/master/bfd/binary.c#L27https://github.com/redox-os/binutils-gdb/blob/master/bfd/binary.c#L255
(LMA == VA usually)
This patch for now just stops creating phdrs for binary output.
An effect from this that no any additional calculation for offset is performed:
uintX_t getFileAlignment(uintX_t Off, OutputSectionBase *Sec) {
OutputSectionBase *First = Sec->FirstInPtLoad;
// If the section is not in a PT_LOAD, we have no other constraint.
if (!First)
return Off; //**First is always null, condition always happens**
That is enough now with combination of another patch to generate output
that is similar to what bfd produce for mbr loader.

Unfortunatelly PT_ARM_EXIDX is special. There is no way to create it
from linker scripts, so we have to create it even if PHDRS is used.
This matches bfd and is required for the lld output to survive bfd's strip.

This is important for cases like:
.sdata : {

The .ARM.exidx table has an entry for each function with the first entry
giving the start address of the function, the table is sorted in ascending
order of function address. Given a PC value, the unwinder will search the
table for the entry that contains the PC value.
If the table entry happens to be the last, the range of the addresses that
the final unwinding table describes will extend to the end of the address
space. To prevent an incorrect address outside the address range of the
program matching the last entry we follow ld.bfd's example and add a
sentinel EXIDX_CANTUNWIND entry at the end of the table. This gives the
final real table entry an upper bound.
In addition the llvm libunwind unwinder currently depends on the presence
of a sentinel entry (PR31091).

Previously, if a symbol specified by -e or ENTRY() is not found,
we didn't set entry point address. That is incompatible with GNU
because GNU linkers set the first address of .text to entry.
This patch implement that behavior.

Offset between beginning of a .got section and _gp symbols used in MIPS
GOT relocations calculations. Usually the expression looks like
VA + Offset - GP, where VA is the .got section address, Offset - offset
of the GOT entry, GP - offset between .got and _gp. Also there two "magic"
symbols _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp which hold the offset mentioned above.
These symbols might be referenced by MIPS relocations.
Now the linker always defines _gp symbol and uses hardcoded value for
its initialization. So offset between .got and _gp is 0x7ff0. The _gp_disp
and __gnu_local_gp defined if required and initialized by 0x7ff0.
In fact that is not correct because _gp symbol might be defined by a linker
script and holds arbitrary value. In that case we need to use this value
in relocation calculation and initialize _gp_disp and __gnu_local_gp
properly.
The patch fixes the problem and completes fixing the bug #30311.

We have different functions to stringize objects to construct
error messages. For InputFile, we have getFilename, and for
InputSection, we have getName. You had to memorize them.
I think this is the case where the function overloading comes in handy.
This patch defines toString() functions that are overloaded for all these
types, so that you just call it in error().

Previously, we stored offsets in string tables to symbols, so
you needed to pass a string table to get a symbol name. This patch
stores const char pointers instead to eliminate the need to pass
a string table.

If the linker script has SECTIONS, the address computation is now
always done in LinkerScript::assignAddresses, like for any other
section.
Before fixHeaders would do a tentative computation that
assignAddresses would sometimes override.
This patch also splits the cases where assignAddresses needs to add
the headers to the first PT_LOAD and the address computation. The net
effect is that we no longer create an empty page for no reason in the
included test case, which matches bfd behavior.

MergeOutputSection class was a bit hard to use because it provdes
a series of finalize functions that have to be called in a right way
at a right time. It also intereacted with MergeInputSection, and the
logic was somewhat entangled between the two classes.
This patch simplifies it by providing only one finalize function.
Now, all you have to do is to call MergeOutputSection::finalize
when you have added all sections to the output section. Then, it
internally merges strings and initliazes StringPiece objects.
I think this is much easier to understand.
This patch also adds comments.

I hit an internal linker script that was defining _DYNAMIC instead of
letting the linker do it. It turns out that both bfd and gold allow
that.
This is pretty easy to implement, just make the linker defined symbol
weak. This should have no impact in the case where there is no user
defined symbol: The visibility is hidden, which causes the output to
still be local.

MIPS GOT handling is very different from other targets so it is better
to keep the code in the separatre section class MipsGotSection. This
patch introduces the new section and moves all MIPS specific code from
GotSection to the new class. I did not rename fields and methods in the
MipsGotSection class to reduce the diff and plan to do that by the
separate commit.

- Finalization of synthetic sections was removed from
OutputSection<ELFT>::finalize. Now finalizeSyntheticSections is
used instead.
