443     // from left to right in the command line while resolving all undefined
444     // symbols at the moment of visiting.

446     // In the above case, since there's no undefined symbol when a linker visits
447     // foo.a, no files are pulled out from foo.a, and because the linker forgets
448     // about foo.a after visiting, it can't resolve undefined symbols in bar.o
449     // that could have been resolved otherwise.
450     //
451     // That lld accepts more relaxed form means that (besides it'd make more
452     // sense) you can accidentally write a command line or a build file that
453     // works only with lld, even if you have a plan to distribute it to wider
454     // users who may be using GNU linkers. With --warn-backrefs, you can detect
455     // a library order that doesn't work with other Unix linkers.
456     //
457     // The option is also useful to detect cyclic dependencies between static
458     // archives. Again, lld accepts

460     //   ld.lld foo.a bar.a
461     //
462     // even if foo.a and bar.a depend on each other. With --warn-backrefs, it is
463     // handled as an error.
464     //
465     // Here is how the option works. We assign a group ID to each file. A file
466     // with a smaller group ID can pull out object files from an archive file
467     // with an equal or greater group ID. Otherwise, it is a reverse dependency
468     // and an error.
469     //
470     // A file outside --{start,end}-group gets a fresh ID when instantiated. All
471     // files within the same --{start,end}-group get the same group ID. E.g.
472     //
473     //   ld.lld A B --start-group C D --end-group E
474     //
475     // A forms group 0. B form group 1. C and D (including their member object
