2022-11-30section-select: Remove unused codeMichael Matz1-2/+0
walk_wild_file, hence walk_wild_section and walk_wild_section_handler aren't called with the prefix tree. Hence initialization of the latter and all potential special cases for it aren't used anymore. That also removes the need to handler_data[] and some associated helper functions. So, remove all of that.
2022-11-30section-select: Implement a prefix-treeMichael Matz1-1/+0
Now that we have a list of potentially matching sections per wild statement we can actually pre-fill that one by going once over all input sections and match their names against a prefix-tree that points to the potentially matching wild statements. So instead of looking at all sections names for each glob for each wild statement we now look at the sections only once and then only check against those globs that have a possibility of a match at all (usually only one or two). This pushes the whole section selection off the profiles.
2022-11-30section-select: Lazily resolve section matchesMichael Matz1-0/+12
and remember the results. Before this the order of section matching is basically: foreach script-wild-stmt S foreach pattern P of S foreach inputfile I foreach section S of I match S against P if match: do action for S And this process is done three or four times: for each top-level call to walk_wild() or wild(), that is: check_input_sections, lang_gc_sections, lang_find_relro_sections and of course map_input_to_output_sections. So we iterate over all sections of all files many many times (for each glob). Reality is a bit more complicated (some special glob types don't need the full iteration over all sections, only over all files), but that's the gist of it. For future work this shuffles the whole ordering a bit by lazily doing the matching process and memoizing results, trading a little memory for a 75% speedup of the overall section selection process. This lazy resolution introduces a problem with sections added late that's corrected in the next patch.
2022-11-28Only use wild_sort_fastMichael Matz1-1/+2
there's no reason why the tree-based variant can't always be used when sorting is required, it merely needs to also support filename sorting and have a fast path for insertion at end (aka rightmost tree leaf). The filename sorting isn't tested anywhere and the only scripttempl that uses it is avr (for 'SORT(*)(.ctors)'), and I believe even there it was a mistake. Either way, this adds a testcase for filename sorting as well. Then the non-BST based sorting can be simplified to only support the fast case of no sorting required at all (at the same time renaming the two variants to _sort and _nosort).

2021-01-13SHF_LINK_ORDER fixup_link_order in ldAlan Modra1-1/+7
This moves the SHF_LINK_ORDER sorting from bfd_elf_final_link to the linker which means generic ELF targets now support SHF_LINK_ORDER and we cope with odd cases that require resizing of output sections. The patch also fixes two bugs in the current implementation, introduced by commit cd6d537c48fa. The pattern test used by that commit meant that sections matching something like "*(.IA_64.unwind* .gnu.linkonce.ia64unw.*)" would not properly sort a mix of sections matching the two wildcards.

2020-11-20bfd, include, ld, binutils, libctf: CTF should use the dynstr/symNick Alcock1-2/+4
This is embarrassing. The whole point of CTF is that it remains intact even after a binary is stripped, providing a compact mapping from symbols to types for everything in the externally-visible interface of an ELF object: it has connections to the symbol table for that purpose, and to the string table to avoid duplicating symbol names. So it's a shame that the hooks I implemented last year served to hook it up to the .symtab and .strtab, which obviously disappear on strip, leaving any accompanying the CTF dict containing references to strings (and, soon, symbols) which don't exist any more because their containing strtab has been vaporized. The original Solaris design used .dynsym and .dynstr (well, actually, .ldynsym, which has more symbols) which do not disappear. So should we. Thankfully the work we did before serves as guide rails, and adjusting things to use the .dynstr and .dynsym was fast and easy. The only annoyance is that the dynsym is assembled inside elflink.c in a fairly piecemeal fashion, so that the easiest way to get the symbols out was to hook in before every call to swap_symbol_out (we also leave in a hook in front of symbol additions to the .symtab because it seems plausible that we might want to hook them in future too: for now that hook is unused). We adjust things so that rather than being offered a whole hash table of symbols at once, libctf is now given symbols one at a time, with st_name indexes already resolved and pointing at their final .dynstr offsets: it's now up to libctf to resolve these to names as needed using the strtab info we pass it separately. Some bits might be contentious. The ctf_new_dynstr callback takes an elf_internal_sym, and this remains an elf_internal_sym right down through the generic emulation layers into ldelfgen. This is no worse than the elf_sym_strtab we used to pass down, but in the future when we gain non-ELF CTF symtab support we might want to lower the elf_internal_sym to some other representation (perhaps a ctf_link_symbol) in bfd or in ldlang_ctf_new_dynsym. We rename the 'apply_strsym' hooks to 'acquire_strings' instead, becuse they no longer have anything to do with symbols. There are some API changes to pieces of API which are technically public but actually totally unused by anything and/or unused by anything but ld so they can change freely: the ctf_link_symbol gains new fields to allow symbol names to be given as strtab offsets as well as strings, and a symidx so that the symbol index can be passed in. ctf_link_shuffle_syms loses its callback parameter: the idea now is that linkers call the new ctf_link_add_linker_symbol for every symbol in .dynsym, feed in all the strtab entries with ctf_link_add_strtab, and then a call to ctf_link_shuffle_syms will apply both and arrange to use them to reorder the CTF symtab at CTF serialization time (which is coming in the next commit). Inside libctf we have a new preamble flag CTF_F_DYNSTR which is always set in v3-format CTF dicts from this commit forwards: CTF dicts without this flag are associated with .strtab like they used to be, so that old dicts' external strings don't turn to garbage when loaded by new libctf. Dicts with this flag are associated with .dynstr and .dynsym instead. (The flag is not the next in sequence because this commit was written quite late: the missing flags will be filled in by the next commit.)

2019-10-03bfd, ld: add CTF section linkingNick Alcock1-0/+8
This is quite complicated because the CTF section's contents depend on the final contents of the symtab and strtab, because it has two sections whose contents are shuffled to be in 1:1 correspondence with the symtab, and an internal strtab that gets deduplicated against the ELF strtab (with offsets adjusted to point into the ELF strtab instead). It is also compressed if large enough, so its size depends on its contents! So we cannot construct it as early as most sections: we cannot even *begin* construction until after the symtab and strtab are finalized. Thankfully there is already one section treated similarly: compressed debugging sections: the only differences are that compressed debugging sections have extra handling to deal with their changing name if compressed (CTF sections are always called ".ctf" for now, though we have reserved ".ctf.*" against future use), and that compressed debugging sections have previously-uncompressed content which has to be stashed away for later compression, while CTF sections have no content at all until we generate it (very late). BFD also cannot do the link itself: libctf knows how to do it, and BFD cannot call libctf directly because libctf already depends on bfd for file I/O. So we have to use a pair of callbacks, one, examine_strtab, which allows a caller to examine the symtab and strtab after finalization (called from elf_link_swap_symbols_out(), right before the symtabs are written, and after the strtab has been finalized), and one which actually does the emission (called emit_ctf simply because it is grouped with a bunch of section-specific late-emission function calls at the bottom of bfd_elf_final_link, and a section-specific name seems best for that). emit_ctf is actually called *twice*: once from lang_process if the emulation suggests that this bfd target does not examine the symtab or strtab, and once via a bfd callback if it does. (This means that non-ELF targets still get CTF emitted, even though the late CTF emission stage is never called for them). v2: merged with non-ELF support patch: slight commit message adjustments. v3: do not spend time merging CTF, or crash, if the CTF section is explicitly discarded. Do not try to merge or compress CTF unless linking. v4: add CTF_COMPRESSION_THRESHOLD. Annul the freed input ctf_file_t's after writeout: set SEC_IN_MEMORY on the output contents so a future bfd enhancement knows it could free it. Add SEC_LINKER_CREATED | SEC_KEEP to avoid having to add .ctf to the linker script. Drop now-unnecessary ldlang.h-level elf-bfd.h include and hackery around it. Adapt to elf32.em->elf.em and elf-generic.em->ldelf*.c changes. v5: fix tabdamage. Drop #inclusions in .h files: include in .c files, .em files, and use struct forwards instead.

2016-11-04ld: Allow EXCLUDE_FILE to be used outside of the section listAndrew Burgess1-0/+1
Currently the EXCLUDE_FILE linker script construct can only be used within the input section list, and applied only to the section pattern immediately following the EXCLUDE_FILE. For example: *.o (EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .text .rodata) In this case all sections matching '.text' are included from all files matching '*.o' but not from the file 'a.o'. All sections matching '.rodata' are also included from all files matching '*.o' (incluing from 'a.o'). If the user wants to restrict the inclusion of section '.rodata' so that this too is not taken from the file 'a.o' then the above example must be extended like this: *.o (EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .text EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .rodata) However, due to the internal grammar of the linker script language the snippet 'EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) .text' is parsed by a pattern called 'wildcard_spec'. The same 'wildcard_spec' pattern is also used to parse the input file name snippet '*.o' in the above examples. As a result of this pattern reuse within the linker script grammar then the following is also a valid linker script construct: EXCLUDE_FILE (a.o) *.o (.text .rodata) However, though the linker accepts this without complaint the EXCLUDE_FILE part is silently ignored and has no effect. This commit takes this last example and makes it a useful, valid, construct. The last example now means to include sections '.text' and '.rodata' from all files matching '*.o' except for the file 'a.o'. If the list of input sections is long, and the user knows that the file exclusion applies across the list then the second form might be a clearer alternative to replicating the EXCLUDE_FILE construct. I've added a set of tests for EXCLUDE_FILE to the linker, including tests for the new functionality. ld/ChangeLog: * ldlang.h (struct lang_wild_statement_struct): Add exclude_name_list field. * ldlang.c (walk_wild_file_in_exclude_list): New function.
