--export-dynamic-symbol-list is like a dynamic list, but without
the symbolic property for unspecified symbols.
When creating an executable, --export-dynamic-symbol-list is treated
like --dynamic-list.
When creating a shared library, it is treated like --dynamic-list if
-Bsymbolic or --dynamic-list are used, otherwise, it is ignored, so
that references to matched symbols will not be bound to the definitions
within the shared library.

I reckon it's quite OK to write &p->field in C when p might be NULL,
and lots of old C programmers probably agree with me. However, ubsan
disagrees and so do some people I respect. I suspect C++ influence is
to blame for the ubsan behaviour. See
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=92634. So far no one has
educated me as to why I'm wrong to claim that there isn't anything in
the C standard to say that p->field is always (*p).field. Note 79
doesn't quite do that because it doesn't cover null pointers. If
there was such an equivalence then you could claim &p->field has a
null pointer reference when p is NULL, even though no C compiler would
ever dereference p.
Anyway, to silence ubsan I'm going to apply the following though I
prefer to avoid casts when possible. And I'm using (void *)
deliberately because this is C, not C++!

and other tidies. I think it's better to default to passing the
section to bfd_octets_per_byte, even in cases where we know it won't
make a difference.
A number of the coff reloc functions used bfd_octets_per_byte wrongly,
not factoring it into the offset into the data buffer. As it happens,
the targets using those files always had bfd_octets_per_byte equal to
one, so there wasn't any detectable wrong behaviour. However, it is
wrong in the source and might cause trouble for anyone creating a new
target. Besides fixing that, the patch also defines OCTETS_PER_BYTE
as one in target files where that is appropriate.

The testcase in the PR has two empty output sections, .sec1 with an
ALIGN and symbol assignment, and .sec2 just with an empty input
section. The symbol assignment results in .sec1 being kept, but
because it is empty this section doesn't take space from the memory
region as you might expect from the ALIGN. Instead the next section
.sec2, has vma/lma as if .sec1 wasn't present. However, .sec2 is
discarded and os->ignored set, which unfortunately meant that dot
wasn't set from .sec2 vma. That in turn results in .sec2 lma being
set incorrectly. That vma/lma difference is then propagated to
.sec3 where it is seen as an overlap.

* ldlang.c (lang_size_sections_1): Set lma from section vma

This is quite complicated because the CTF section's contents depend on
the final contents of the symtab and strtab, because it has two sections
whose contents are shuffled to be in 1:1 correspondence with the symtab,
and an internal strtab that gets deduplicated against the ELF strtab
(with offsets adjusted to point into the ELF strtab instead). It is
also compressed if large enough, so its size depends on its contents!
So we cannot construct it as early as most sections: we cannot even
*begin* construction until after the symtab and strtab are finalized.
Thankfully there is already one section treated similarly: compressed
debugging sections: the only differences are that compressed debugging
sections have extra handling to deal with their changing name if
compressed (CTF sections are always called ".ctf" for now, though we
have reserved ".ctf.*" against future use), and that compressed
debugging sections have previously-uncompressed content which has to be
stashed away for later compression, while CTF sections have no content
at all until we generate it (very late).
BFD also cannot do the link itself: libctf knows how to do it, and BFD
cannot call libctf directly because libctf already depends on bfd for
file I/O. So we have to use a pair of callbacks, one, examine_strtab,
which allows a caller to examine the symtab and strtab after
finalization (called from elf_link_swap_symbols_out(), right before the
symtabs are written, and after the strtab has been finalized), and one
which actually does the emission (called emit_ctf simply because it is
grouped with a bunch of section-specific late-emission function calls at
the bottom of bfd_elf_final_link, and a section-specific name seems best
for that). emit_ctf is actually called *twice*: once from lang_process
if the emulation suggests that this bfd target does not examine the
symtab or strtab, and once via a bfd callback if it does. (This means
that non-ELF targets still get CTF emitted, even though the late CTF
emission stage is never called for them).

I was looking at the implementation of this script keyword today and
couldn't remember why we do what we do in get_init_priority, because
the comments explain how the init_priority is encoded but don't say
why it is necessary to extract the priority and sort on that. So
after figuring out why (again), I wrote some more comments.
Then I simplified get_init_priority a little, adding some sanity
checking on the strtoul result. This actually makes get_init_priority
support sorting by numerical suffix more generally, but I figure this
feature would be better as a new keyword (without the .ctors/.dtors
special case), so haven't documented the extension.

I think this is safer than leaving an input_statement added during

For some reason, commit 906e58cab5 2008-05-15 excluded input

This fixes a problem with commit 128bf1fe60, a patch I made
2019-08-06. Apparently it is possible to trigger the assertion I
added during an LTO bootstrap, something I haven't reproduced.
However, I did find a case triggered by an odd linker script feature
that allows a file to be loaded from the script without specifying
that file on the command line. Regarding input sections:
"When you use a file name which is not an archive:file specifier
and does not contain any wild card characters, the linker will
first see if you also specified the file name on the linker command
line or in an INPUT command. If you did not, the linker will
attempt to open the file as an input file, as though it appeared on
the command line."
So putting
.foo : { foo.a(*) }
into a script supposedly extracts foo.a into .foo. Except it doesn't,
since this feature is meant for object files only. Well anyway,
assuming --whole-archive was given on the command line, foo.a contains
a -flto object and no other objects involved were -flto then we'll hit
the assert due to files added like foo.a here *not* having their input
statement put on the general statement list. Why these are not put on
the statement list isn't obvious but it has been that way since commit
193c5f93a1 in 1994.

"next" and "next_real_file" in lang_input_statement_type always point
to another lang_input_statement_type, so it makes sense for these to
not be the generic lang_statement_union_type. This patch also updates

lang_statement_append to reduce the need for casts.

This is a mostly cosmetic fix for cases like PR24873 where LTO
recompiled objects were supposed to be inserted inside a group. The
specific case handled by this patch is when the first file inside a
group is an archive, the first file claimed by the plugin. Prior to
this patch we would have inserted the recompiled objects before the
group, which doesn't matter really since the entire group will be
reloaded, but it looks a little wrong in map files.

* ldlang.c (find_replacements_insert_point): Return "before" flag.
(find_next_input_statement): New function.
(lang_process): When placing recompiled LTO objects before a
claimed archive, place them immediately before in the statement
list.
Reloading of archives (and checking --as-needed DSOs again) is
disabled until we hit the plugin insert point. It's necessary to do
that because in a case like lib1.a lto.o lib2.a where lib1.a and
lib2.a contain duplicate symbols, we want the lto.o recompiled object
to pull in objects from lib2.a as necessary, but not from lib1.a.
Unfortunately this heuristic fails when the insert point is inside a
group, because ld actually loads the symbols from the recompiled
object before running over the contours of the script, thus missing
the fact that new undefs appeared in the group.

Add a new option to disable the listing of discarded sections
in map file output. The use case stems from a large application
built with -ffunction-sections --gc-sections where the list of
discarded sections blows up the map file output. The default

allows us to disable it.

Generic linker ELF targets using CREATE_OBJECT_SYMBOLS in their
scripts run into a problem. The file symbols are created by
_bfd_generic_link_output_symbols in each object file, in the section
corresponding to the CREATE_OBJECT_SYMBOLS section, typically .text.
If it so happens that the output .text section is stripped due to
being empty, then elf.c:assign_section_numbers won't assign an ELF
section number and swap_out_syms will report "unable to find
equivalent output section" for the object symbols. Fix this by
always keeping an output section with CREATE_OBJECT_SYMBOLS.

When discovering the statement lists via their header variable
statement_list, file_chain and input_file_chain it can be confusing to
figure out what they are for. They can point to the same initial
statement and the relation between the next field they use is not
obvious from the name.
This commit adds comment for each of those statement list header to
explain what they are for and what next field they use. It also rewrite
the comment for the next fields to simply redirect the reader to the
list header to avoid duplication of documentation.
