This is a follow-up to #120452 in a way. Since lld/COFF does not yet insert all defined in an obj file before all undefineds (ELF and MachO do this, see #67445 and things linked from there), it's possible that: 1. We add an obj file a.obj 2. a.obj contains an undefined that's in b.obj, causing b.obj to be added 3. b.obj contains an undefined that's in a part of a.obj that's not yet in the symbol table, causing a recursive load of a.obj, which adds the symbols in there twice, leading to duplicate symbol errors. For normal archives, `ArchiveFile::addMember()` has a `seen` check to prevent this. For start-lib lazy objects, we can just check if the archive is still lazy at the recursive call. This bug is similar to issue #59162. (Eventually, we'll probably want to do what the MachO and ELF ports do.) Includes a test that caused duplicate symbol diagnostics before this code change.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
