This is how it should've been and brings it more in line with
std::string_view. There should be no functional change here.
This is mostly mechanical from a custom clang-tidy check, with a lot of
manual fixups. It uncovers a lot of minor inefficiencies.
This doesn't actually modify StringRef yet, I'll do that in a follow-up.
.text sh_address=0x1000 sh_offset=0x1000
.data sh_address=0x3000 sh_offset=0x2000
In an objcopy -O binary output, the distance between two sections equal
their LMA differences (0x3000-0x1000), instead of their sh_offset
differences (0x2000-0x1000). This patch changes our behavior to match
GNU.
This rule gets more complex when the containing PT_LOAD has
p_vaddr!=p_paddr. GNU objcopy essentially computes
sh_offset-p_offset+p_paddr for each candidate section, and removes the
gap before the first address.
Added tests to binary-paddr.test to catch the compatibility problem.

--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

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.

Summary:
When llvm-objcopy sorts sections during finalization, it only sorts based on the offset, which can cause the group section to come after the sections it contains. This causes link failures when using gold to link objects created by llvm-objcopy.
Fix this for now by copying GNU objcopy's behavior of placing SHT_GROUP sections first. In the future, we may want to remove this sorting entirely to more closely preserve the input file layout.

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.

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.

Problem is the following. Our implementation of GroupSection assumes that
its address is 4 bytes aligned when writes it:
template <class ELFT>
void ELFSectionWriter<ELFT>::visit(const GroupSection &Sec) {
ELF::Elf32_Word *Buf =
reinterpret_cast<ELF::Elf32_Word *>(Out.getBufferStart() + Sec.Offset);
...
But the test case for D59638 did not set AddressAlign in YAML. So address was
not 4 bytes aligned since Sec.Offset was odd. That triggered the issue.
This patch teaches llvm-objcopy to report an error for such sections (which should
not met in reality), what is better than having UB.
