40 // Branch-range extension can be implemented in two ways, either through ...
41 //
42 // (1) Branch islands: Single branch instructions (also of limited range),
43 //     that might be chained in multiple hops to reach the desired
44 //     destination. On ARM64, as 16 branch islands are needed to hop between
45 //     opposite ends of a 2 GiB program. LD64 uses branch islands exclusively,
46 //     even when it needs excessive hops.
47 //
48 // (2) Thunks: Instruction(s) to load the destination address into a scratch
49 //     register, followed by a register-indirect branch. Thunks are
50 //     constructed to reach any arbitrary address, so need not be
51 //     chained. Although thunks need not be chained, a program might need
52 //     multiple thunks to the same destination distributed throughout a large
53 //     program so that all call sites can have one within range.
54 //
55 // The optimal approach is to mix islands for destinations within two hops,
56 // and use thunks for destinations at greater distance. For now, we only
57 // implement thunks. TODO: Adding support for branch islands!
58 //
59 // Internally -- as expressed in LLD's data structures -- a
60 // branch-range-extension thunk consists of:
61 //
62 // (1) new Defined symbol for the thunk named
63 //     <FUNCTION>.thunk.<SEQUENCE>, which references ...
64 // (2) new InputSection, which contains ...
65 // (3.1) new data for the instructions to load & branch to the far address +
66 // (3.2) new Relocs on instructions to load the far address, which reference ...
67 // (4.1) existing Defined symbol for the real function in __text, or
68 // (4.2) existing DylibSymbol for the real function in a dylib
69 //
70 // Nearly-optimal thunk-placement algorithm features:
71 //
72 // * Single pass: O(n) on the number of call sites.
73 //
74 // * Accounts for the exact space overhead of thunks - no heuristics
75 //
76 // * Exploits the full range of call instructions - forward & backward
77 //
78 // Data:
79 //
80 // * DenseMap<Symbol *, ThunkInfo> thunkMap: Maps the function symbol
81 //   to its thunk bookkeeper.
82 //
83 // * struct ThunkInfo (bookkeeper): Call instructions have limited range, and
84 //   distant call sites might be unable to reach the same thunk, so multiple
85 //   thunks are necessary to serve all call sites in a very large program. A
86 //   thunkInfo stores state for all thunks associated with a particular
87 //   function:
88 //     (a) thunk symbol
89 //     (b) input section containing stub code, and
90 //     (c) sequence number for the active thunk incarnation.
91 //   When an old thunk goes out of range, we increment the sequence number and
92 //   create a new thunk named <FUNCTION>.thunk.<SEQUENCE>.
93 //
94 // * A thunk consists of
95 //     (a) a Defined symbol pointing to
96 //     (b) an InputSection holding machine code (similar to a MachO stub), and
97 //     (c) relocs referencing the real function for fixing up the stub code.
98 //
99 // * std::vector<InputSection *> MergedInputSection::thunks: A vector parallel
100 //   to the inputs vector. We store new thunks via cheap vector append, rather
101 //   than costly insertion into the inputs vector.
102 //
103 // Control Flow:
104 //
105 // * During address assignment, MergedInputSection::finalize() examines call
106 //   sites by ascending address and creates thunks.  When a function is beyond
107 //   the range of a call site, we need a thunk. Place it at the largest
108 //   available forward address from the call site. Call sites increase
109 //   monotonically and thunks are always placed as far forward as possible;
110 //   thus, we place thunks at monotonically increasing addresses. Once a thunk
111 //   is placed, it and all previous input-section addresses are final.
112 //
113 // * ConcatInputSection::finalize() and ConcatInputSection::writeTo() merge
114 //   the inputs and thunks vectors (both ordered by ascending address), which
115 //   is simple and cheap.
