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