LTO rescan archives
ld ought to be more clever about where it puts LTO recompiled objects. Ideally the recompiled objects ought to be ordered to the same place their IR objects were, and files extracted from archives on the second pass ought to go in the same place as they would if extracted on the first pass. This patch addresses the archive problem. Without this fix, objects extracted from archives might be placed after the crt files intended to go at the end of an executable or shared library, possibly causing exception handling failures. * ldlang.h (lang_input_statement_type): Expand comments. (LANG_FOR_EACH_INPUT_STATEMENT): Rewrite without casts. * ldlang.c (lang_for_each_input_file): Likewise. (load_symbols): Set usrdata for archives. (find_rescan_insertion): New function. (lang_process): Trim off and reinsert entries added to file chain when rescanning archives for LTO. * ldmain.c (add_archive_element): Set my_archive input_statement next pointer to last element added.
