`clang -g -gpubnames -fdebug-types-section` now emits .debug_names
section with references to local type unit entries defined in COMDAT
.debug_info sections.
```

.long .Ltu_begin0 # Type unit 0
// DWARF64
// .long .Ltu_begin0 # Type unit 0
```
When `.Ltu_begin0` is relative to a non-prevailing .debug_info section,
the relocation resolves to 0, which is a valid offset within the
.debug_info section.
```
cat > a.cc <<e
struct A { int x; };
inline A foo() { return {1}; }
int main() { foo(); }

https://dwarfstd.org/issues/231013.1.html proposes that we use a
tombstone value instead to inform consumers. This patch implements the
idea. The second LocalTU entry will now use 0xffffffff.
https://reviews.llvm.org/D84825 has a TODO that we should switch the
tombstone value for most `.debug_*` sections to UINT64_MAX. We have
postponed the change for more than three years for consumers to migrate.
At some point we shall make the change, so that .debug_names is no long
different from other debug section that is not .debug_loc/.debug_ranges.

relocateNonAlloc is costly for .debug_* section relocating. We don't
want to burn CPU cycles on other targets' workarounds.

Move the R_386_GOTPC workaround for GCC<8 beside the R_PC workaround.
For a label difference like `.uleb128 A-B`, MC generates a pair of
R_RISCV_SET_ULEB128/R_RISCV_SUB_ULEB128 if A-B cannot be folded as a
constant. GNU assembler generates a pair of relocations in more cases
(when A or B is in a code section with linker relaxation).
`.uleb128 A-B` is primarily used by DWARF v5
.debug_loclists/.debug_rnglists (DW_LLE_offset_pair/DW_RLE_offset_pair
entry kinds) implemented in Clang and GCC.
`.uleb128 A-B` can be used in SHF_ALLOC sections as well (e.g.
`.gcc_except_table`). This patch does not handle SHF_ALLOC.
`-z dead-reloc-in-nonalloc=` can be used to change the relocated value,
if the R_RISCV_SET_ULEB128 symbol is in a discarded section. We don't
check the R_RISCV_SUB_ULEB128 symbol since for the expected cases A and
B should be defined in the same input section.
One use of setSymbolAndType (related to https://reviews.llvm.org/D53864
"Do not crash when -r output uses linker script with `/DISCARD/`")
is no longer needed after commit 1981b1b6b92f7579a30c9ed32dbdf3bc749c1b40
demotes symbols in discarded sections to Undefined.
https://reviews.llvm.org/D48929 updated addends for non-SHF_ALLOC sections
relocated by REL for -r links, but the patch did not update the addends when
--compress-debug-sections={zlib,zstd} is used (#66738).
https://reviews.llvm.org/D116946 handled tombstone values in debug
sections in relocatable links. As a side effect, both
relocateNonAllocForRelocatable (using `sec->relocations`) and
relocatenonNonAlloc (using raw REL/RELA) may run.
Actually, we can adjust the condition in relocatenonAlloc to completely replace
relocateNonAllocForRelocatable. This patch implements this idea and fixes#66738.
As relocateNonAlloc processes the raw relocations like copyRelocations() does,
the condition `if (config->relocatable && type != target.noneRel)` in `copyRelocations`
(commit 08d6a3f1337238a480225d4caf71b8fec10dc8c6, modified by https://reviews.llvm.org/D62052)
can be made specific to SHF_ALLOC sections.
As a side effect, we can now report diagnostics for PC-relative relocations for
-r. This is a less useful diagnostic that is not worth too much code. As
https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1937 has violations, just
suppress the warning for -r. Tested by commit 561b98f9e025363b416f4e89af750d01d1e8c4cc.
Linker relaxation may change relocations (offsets and types). However,
when --emit-relocs is used, relocations are simply copied from the input
section causing a mismatch with the corresponding (relaxed) code
section.
This patch fixes this as follows: for non-relocatable RISC-V binaries,
`InputSection::copyRelocations` reads relocations from the relocated
section's `relocations` array (since this gets updated by the relaxation
code). For all other cases, relocations are read from the input section
directly as before.
In order to reuse as much code as possible, and to keep the diff small,
the original `InputSection::copyRelocations` is changed to accept the
relocations as a range of `Relocation` objects. This means that, in the
general case when reading from the input section, raw relocations need
to be converted to `Relocation`s first, which introduces quite a bit of
boiler plate. It also means there's a slight code size increase due to
the extra instantiations of `copyRelocations` (for both range types).

This is primarily used for .rodata.cst* duplicate elimination. The

Also change the `isec` parameter in `addAddendOnlyRelocIfNonPreemptible` to `GotSection &`.
The target-specific code (AArch64, PPC64) does not fit into the generic code and
adds virtual function overhead. Move relocateAlloc into ELF/Arch/ instead. This
removes many virtual functions (relaxTls*). In addition, this helps get rid of
getRelocTargetVA dispatch and many RelExpr members in the future.
This improves consistency with other places (e.g. llvm::compression::decompress,
llvm::object::Decompressor::decompress, llvm-objcopy).
Note: when zstd::uncompress was added, we noticed that the API `ZSTD_decompress`
is fine while the zlib API `uncompress` is a misnomer.

We don't want to increase the size of InputSection, so do redundant but cheap

This implements the last step of
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/parallel-input-file-parsing/60164 for the ELF port.
For an ELF object file, we previously did: parse, (parallel) initializeLocalSymbols, (parallel) postParseObjectFile.
Now we do: parse, (parallel) initSectionsAndLocalSyms, (parallel) postParseObjectFile.
initSectionsAndLocalSyms does most of input section initialization.
The sequential `parse` does SHT_ARM_ATTRIBUTES/SHT_RISCV_ATTRIBUTES/SHT_GROUP initialization for now.

* Inline getReloc
* Fold the UINT32_MAX length check into the section size check.
This transformation is valid because we don't support .eh_frame input sections
larger than 32-bit (unrealistic even for large code models).
This simplifies code, removes a read32 (for id==0 check), and makes it feasible
to combine some operations in EhInputSection::split and EhFrameSection::addRecords.
Mostly NFC, but fixes "Relocation not in any piece" assertion failure in an
erroneous case when a relocation offset precedes all CIE/FDE pices.
inputSections temporarily contains EhInputSection objects mainly for
combineEhSections. Place EhInputSection objects into a new vector
ehInputSections instead of inputSections.
It's more natural to use uint8_t * (std::byte needs C++17 and llvm has
too much uint8_t *) and most callers use uint8_t * instead of char *.
The functions are recently moved into `llvm::compression::zlib::`, so
downstream projects need to make adaption anyway.
* Refactor compression namespaces across the project, making way for a possible
introduction of alternatives to zlib compression.
Changes are as follows:
* Relocate the `llvm::zlib` namespace to `llvm::compression::zlib`.

Alternative to D125036. Implement R_RISCV_ALIGN relaxation so that we can handle
-mrelax object files (i.e. -mno-relax is no longer needed) and creates a
framework for future relaxation.
`relaxAux` is placed in a union with InputSectionBase::jumpInstrMod, storing
auxiliary information for relaxation. In the first pass, `relaxAux` is allocated.
The main data structure is `relocDeltas`: when referencing `relocations[i]`, the
actual offset is `r_offset - (i ? relocDeltas[i-1] : 0)`.
`relaxOnce` performs one relaxation pass. It computes `relocDeltas` for all text
section. Then, adjust st_value/st_size for symbols relative to this section
based on `SymbolAnchor`. `bytesDropped` is set so that `assignAddresses` knows
that the size has changed.
Run `relaxOnce` in the `finalizeAddressDependentContent` loop to wait for
convergence of text sections and other address dependent sections (e.g.
SHT_RELR). Note: extrating `relaxOnce` into a separate loop works for many cases
but has issues in some linker script edge cases.
After convergence, compute section contents: shrink the NOP sequence of each
R_RISCV_ALIGN as appropriate. Instead of deleting bytes, we run a sequence of
memcpy on the content delimitered by relocation locations. For R_RISCV_ALIGN let
the next memcpy skip the desired number of bytes. Section content computation is
parallelizable, but let's ensure the implementation is mature before
optimizations. Technically we can save a copy if we interleave some code with
`OutputSection::writeTo`, but let's not pollute the generic code (we don't have
templated relocation resolving, so using conditions can impose overhead to
non-RISCV.)
Tested:
`make ARCH=riscv CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- LLVM=1 defconfig all` built Linux kernel using -mrelax is bootable.
FreeBSD RISCV64 system using -mrelax is bootable.

Similar to D119787 for PPC64.
A hidden undefined weak may change its binding to local before some
`isUndefinedWeak` code, so some `isUndefinedWeak` code needs to be changed to
`isUndefined`. The undefined non-weak case has been errored, so just using
`isUndefined` is fine.
The Linux kernel recently has a usage that a branch from 0xffff800008491ee0
references a hidden undefined weak symbol `vfio_group_set_kvm`.
It relies on the behavior that a branch to undefined weak resolving to the next

Two code paths may reach the EHFrame case in SectionBase::getOffset:
* .eh_frame reference
* relocation copy for --emit-relocs
The first may be used by clang_rt.crtbegin.o and GCC crtbeginT.o to get the
start address of the output .eh_frame. The relocation has an offset of 0 or
(x86-64 PC-relative leaq for clang_rt.crtbegin.o) -4. The current code just
returns `offset`, which handles this case well.
The second is related to InputSection::copyRelocations on .eh_frame (used by
--emit-relocs). .eh_frame pieces may be dropped due to GC/ICF, so we should
convert the input offset to the output offset. Use the same way as
MergeInputSection with a special case handling outSecOff==-1 for an invalid
piece (see eh-frame-marker.s).
This exposes an issue in mips64-eh-abs-reloc.s that we don't reliably
handle anyway. Just add --no-check-dynamic-relocations to paper over it.
