Without setting the flag there is no way to determine if a symbol
points to an arm or to a thumb function as the LSB of the address
masked out in all getter function.
Note: Currently the thumb flag is only used for MachO files so
adding a test to this change is not possible. It will be used
by the upcoming fix for llvm-objdump for disassembling thumb
functions what is easily testable.

Instead of using a bit to detect if they are "dynamic", just look at
sh_link.
This is a simplification on its own, and will help with using
llvm-objdump in dynamic objects.

in the test suite. While this is not really an interesting tool and option to run
on a Mach-O file to show the symbol table in a generic libObject format
it shouldn’t crash.
The reason for the crash was in MachOObjectFile::getSymbolType() when it was
calling MachOObjectFile::getSymbolSection() without checking its return value
for the error case.
What makes this fix require a fair bit of diffs is that the method getSymbolType() is
in the class ObjectFile defined without an ErrorOr<> so I needed to add that all
the sub classes. And all of the uses needed to be updated and the return value
needed to be checked for the error case.
The MachOObjectFile version of getSymbolType() “can” get an error in trying to
come up with the libObject’s internal SymbolRef::Type when the Mach-O symbol
symbol type is an N_SECT type because the code is trying to select from the
SymbolRef::ST_Data or SymbolRef::ST_Function values for the SymbolRef::Type.
And it needs the Mach-O section to use isData() and isBSS to determine if
it will return SymbolRef::ST_Data.
One other possible fix I considered is to simply return SymbolRef::ST_Other
when MachOObjectFile::getSymbolSection() returned an error. But since in
the past when I did such changes that “ate an error in the libObject code” I
was asked instead to push the error out of the libObject code I chose not
to implement the fix this way.
As currently written both the COFF and ELF versions of getSymbolType()
can’t get an error. But if isReservedSectionNumber() wanted to check for
the two known negative values rather than allowing all negative values or
the code wanted to add the same check as in getSymbolAddress() to use
getSection() and check for the error then these versions of getSymbolType()
could return errors.
At the end of the day the error printed now is the generic “Invalid data was
encountered while parsing the file” for object_error::parse_failed. In the
future when we thread Lang’s new TypedError for recoverable error handling
though libObject this will improve. And where the added // Diagnostic(…
comment is, it would be changed to produce and error message
like “bad section index (42) for symbol at index 8” for this case.

In executable and shared object ELF files, relocations in the file contain the final virtual address rather than section offset so this is adjusted to display section offset.

A request has been made to the official registry, but an official value is
not yet available. This patch uses a temporary value in order to support
development. When an official value is recieved, the value of EM_WEBASSEMBLY
will be updated.

Also adds a 'trivial' ELF file. This was generated by assembling
and linking a file with the symbol main which contains a single
return instruction.

With this we finally have an ELFFile that is O(1) to construct. This is helpful
for programs like lld which have to do their own section walk.

getSymbolValue now returns a value that in convenient for most callers:
* 0 for undefined
* symbol size for common symbols
* offset/address for symbols the rest
Code that needs something more specific can check getSymbolFlags.

Originally added in r139314.
Back then it didn't actually get the address, it got whatever value the
relocation used: address or offset.
The values in different object formats are:
* MachO: Always an offset.
* COFF: Always an address, but when talking about the virtual address of
sections it says: "for simplicity, compilers should set this to zero".
* ELF: An offset for .o files and and address for .so files. In the case of the
.so, the relocation in not linked to any section (sh_info is 0). We can't
really compute an offset.
Some API mappings would be:
* Use getAddress for everything. It would be quite cumbersome. To compute the
address elf has to follow sh_info, which can be corrupted and therefore the
method has to return an ErrorOr. The address of the section is also the same
for every relocation in a section, so we shouldn't have to check the error
and fetch the value for every relocation.
* Use a getValue and make it up to the user to know what it is getting.
* Use a getOffset and:
* Assert for dynamic ELF objects. That is a very peculiar case and it is
probably fair to ask any tool that wants to support it to use ELF.h. The
only tool we have that reads those (llvm-readobj) already does that. The
only other use case I can think of is a dynamic linker.
* Check that COFF .obj files have sections with zero virtual address spaces. If
it turns out that some assembler/compiler produces these, we can change
COFFObjectFile::getRelocationOffset to subtract it. Given COFF format,
this can be done without the need for ErrorOr.
The getRelocationAddress method was never implemented for COFF. It also
had exactly one use in a very peculiar case: a shortcut for adding the
section value to a pcrel reloc on MachO.
Given that, I don't expect that there is any use out there of the C API. If
that is not the case, let me know and I will add it back with the implementation
inlined and do a proper deprecation.

This function can really fail since the string table offset can be out of
bounds.
Using ErrorOr makes sure the error is checked.
Hopefully a lot of the boilerplate code in tools/* can go away once we have
a diagnostic manager in Object.
llvm-svn: 241297
This also improves the logic of what is an error:
* getSection(uint_32): only return an error if the index is out of bounds. The
index 0 corresponds to a perfectly valid entry.
* getSection(Elf_Sym): Returns null for symbols that normally don't have
sections and error for out of bound indexes.
In many places this just moves the report_fatal_error up the stack, but those
can then be fixed in smaller patches.
llvm-svn: 241156
Realistically, this will be returning ErrorOr for some time as refactoring the
user code to check once per section will take some time.
Given that, use it for checking if a relocation has addend or not.
While at it, add ELFRelocationRef to simplify the users.
llvm-svn: 241028
If a section is not SHT_REL or SHT_RELA, we never create a valid iterator,
so the getRelocation* methods should always see a section with the correct type.
llvm-svn: 241023
It was a fairly broken concept for an ELF only class.
An ELF file can have two symbol tables, but they have exactly the same
format. There is no concept of a dynamic or a static symbol. Storing this
on the iterator also makes us do more work per symbol than necessary. To fetch
a name we would:
* Find if we had a static or a dynamic symbol.
* Look at the corresponding symbol table and find the string table section.
* Look at the string table section to fetch its contents.
* Compute the name as a substring of the string table.
All but the last step can be done per symbol table instead of per symbol. This
is a step in that direction.
llvm-svn: 240939
This is still a really odd function. Most calls are in object format specific
contexts and should probably be replaced with a more direct query, but at least
now this is not too obnoxious to use.
