This reverts commit fd4808887ee47f3ec8a030e9211169ef4fb094c3.
This patch causes gcc to issue a lot of warnings like:
warning: base class ‘class llvm::MCParsedAsmOperand’ should be
explicitly initialized in the copy constructor [-Wextra]
MIPS64 little endian target has a "special" encoding of `r_info`
relocation record field. Instead of one 64-bit little endian number, it
is a little endian 32-bit number followed by a 32-bit big endian number.
For correct reading and writing such fields we must provide information
about target machine into the corresponding routine. This patch does
this for the `llvm-objcopy` tool and fix handling of MIPS64 little
endian files.
The bug was reported in the issue #52647.

This is another attempt at D59351 which attempted to add --update-section, but
with some heuristics for adjusting segment/section offsets/sizes in the event
the data copied into the section is larger than the original size of the section.
We are opting to not support this case. GNU's objcopy was able to do this because
the linker and objcopy are tightly coupled enough that segment reformatting was
simpler. This is not the case with llvm-objcopy and lld where they like to be separated.
This will attempt to copy data into the section without changing any other
properties of the parent segment (if the section is part of one).

As for now, llvm-objcopy sorts section headers according to the offsets
of the sections in the input file. That can corrupt section references
in the dynamic symbol table because it is a loadable section and as such
is not updated by the tool. Even though the section references are not
required for loading the binary correctly, they are still handy for a
user who analyzes the file.
While the patch removes global reordering of section headers, it layouts
the sections in the same way as before, i.e. according to their original
offsets. All that helps the output file to resemble the input better.
Note that the patch removes sorting SHT_GROUP sections to the start of
the list, which was introduced in D62620 in order to ensure that they
come before the group members, along with the corresponding test. The
original issue was caused by the sorting of section headers, so dropping
the sorting also resolves the issue.

The patch removes mutable accessor methods for sections and segments.
As for now, const variants of them are not used because all callers have
mutable access to an instance of Object. On the other hand, they do not
actually modify the sets, so it looks better to keep only const ones.

This patch prepares llvm-objcopy to move its implementation

During D88827 it was requested to remove the local implementation
of Memory/File Buffers:
// TODO: refactor the buffer classes in LLVM to enable us to use them here
// directly.
This patch uses raw_ostream instead of Buffers. Generally, using streams
could allow us to reduce memory usages. No need to load all data into the
memory - the data could be streamed through a smaller buffer.
Thus, this patch uses raw_ostream as an interface for output data:
Error executeObjcopyOnBinary(CopyConfig &Config,
object::Binary &In,
raw_ostream &Out);
Note 1. This patch does not change the implementation of Writers
so that data would be directly stored into raw_ostream.
This is assumed to be done later.
Note 2. It would be better if Writers would be implemented in a such way
that data could be streamed without seeking/updating. If that would be
inconvenient then raw_ostream could be replaced with raw_pwrite_stream
to have a possibility to seek back and update file headers.
This is assumed to be done later if necessary.
Note 3. Current FileOutputBuffer allows using a memory-mapped file.
The raw_fd_ostream (which could be used if data should be stored in the file)
does not allow us to use a memory-mapped file. Memory map functionality
could be implemented for raw_fd_ostream:
It is possible to add resize() method into raw_ostream.
class raw_ostream {
void resize(uint64_t size);
}
That method, implemented for raw_fd_ostream, could create a memory-mapped file.
The streamed data would be written into that memory file then.
Thus we would be able to use memory-mapped files with raw_fd_ostream.
This is assumed to be done later if necessary.

--only-keep-debug produces a debug file as the output that only
preserves contents of sections useful for debugging purposes (the
binutils implementation preserves SHT_NOTE and non-SHF_ALLOC sections),
by changing their section types to SHT_NOBITS and rewritting file
offsets.
See https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Separate-Debug-Files.html
The intended use case is:
```
llvm-objcopy --only-keep-debug a a.dbg
llvm-objcopy --strip-debug a b
llvm-objcopy --add-gnu-debuglink=a.dbg b
```
The current layout algorithm is incapable of deleting contents and
shrinking segments, so it is not suitable for implementing the
functionality.
This patch adds a new algorithm which assigns sh_offset to sections
first, then modifies p_offset/p_filesz of program headers. It bears a
resemblance to lld/ELF/Writer.cpp.

GNU objcopy documents that -B is only useful with architecture-less
input (i.e. "binary" or "ihex"). After D67144, -O defaults to -I, and
-B is essentially a NOP.
* If -O is binary/ihex, GNU objcopy ignores -B.
* If -O is elf*, -B provides the e_machine field in GNU objcopy.
So to convert a blob to an ELF, `-I binary -B i386:x86-64 -O elf64-x86-64` has to be specified.
`-I binary -B i386:x86-64 -O elf64-x86-64` creates an ELF with its
e_machine field set to EM_NONE in GNU objcopy, but a regular x86_64 ELF
in elftoolchain elfcopy. Follow the elftoolchain approach (ignoring -B)
to simplify code. Users that expect their command line portable should
specify -B.

Summary:
The directive defines a symbol as an group/local memory (LDS) symbol.
LDS symbols behave similar to common symbols for the purposes of ELF,
using the processor-specific SHN_AMDGPU_LDS as section index.
It is the linker and/or runtime loader's job to "instantiate" LDS symbols
and resolve relocations that reference them.
It is not possible to initialize LDS memory (not even zero-initialize
as for .bss).
We want to be able to link together objects -- starting with relocatable
objects, but possible expanding to shared objects in the future -- that
access LDS memory in a flexible way.
LDS memory is in an address space that is entirely separate from the
address space that contains the program image (code and normal data),
so having program segments for it doesn't really make sense.
Furthermore, we want to be able to compile multiple kernels in a
compilation unit which have disjoint use of LDS memory. In that case,
we may want to place LDS symbols differently for different kernels
to save memory (LDS memory is very limited and physically private to
each kernel invocation), so we can't simply place LDS symbols in a
.lds section.
Hence this solution where LDS symbols always stay undefined.

This implements the functionality described in
https://lld.llvm.org/Partitions.html. It works as follows:
- Reads the section headers using the ELF header at file offset 0;
- If extracting a loadable partition:
- Finds the section containing the required partition ELF header by looking it up in the section table;
- Reads the ELF and program headers from the section.
- If extracting the main partition:
- Reads the ELF and program headers from file offset 0.
- Filters the section table according to which sections are in the program headers that it read:
- If ParentSegment != nullptr or section is not SHF_ALLOC, then it goes in.
- Sections containing partition ELF headers or program headers are excluded as there are no headers for these in ordinary ELF files.

.gnu_debuglink section contains information regarding file with
debugging symbols, identified by its CRC32. This target file is not
intended to ever change or it would invalidate the stored checksum, yet
the checksum is calculated over and over again for each of the objects
inside the archive, usually hundreds of times.
This patch precomputes the CRC32 of the target once and then reuses the
value where required, saving lots of redundant I/O.
The error message reported should stay the same, although now it might
be reported earlier.

llvm-objcopy currently emits an error if a section to be removed is
referenced by another section. This is a reasonable thing to do, but is
different to GNU objcopy. We should allow users who know what they are
doing to have a way to produce the invalid ELF. This change adds a new
switch --allow-broken-links to both llvm-strip and llvm-objcopy to do
precisely that. The corresponding sh_link field is then set to 0 instead
of an error being emitted.
I cannot use llvm-readelf/readobj to test the link fields because they
emit an error if any sections, like the .dynsym, cannot be properly
loaded.

it could always read a section header string table. This isn't the case
when the sections were previously all stripped, and the e_shstrndx field

adding extra space for non-existent section headers, meaning that
--strip-sections on the output of a previous --strip-sections run
produces identical output, simplifying the test.
